Wisconsin extended an offer to class of 2027 offensive lineman Maxwell Hiller on Friday.
The program joins a loaded offer sheet including Alabama, Penn State, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, Miami, Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas A&M and USC. If a program has College Football Playoff aspirations, it is likely in pursuit of the top lineman.
247Sports currently lists Hiller as a four-star recruit, although he’s on the fringe of a five-star rating. The Coatesville, Pennsylvania, native is the No. 34 overall player in the country, the No. 3 interior offensive lineman and the No. 2 recruit from his home state. There are only 32 five-star recruits in each cycle, making Hiller just a small rating bump away from that status.
Although the 2027 recruiting cycle is still a full calendar year away, On3’s recruiting prediction machine lists Penn State as the early favorite at 90%. Maryland is next at 4.1%, then South Carolina at 1.4%. Wisconsin will look for a similar result to its recruitment of class of 2021 five-star offensive tackle Nolan Rucci, who chose the Badgers over the in-state Nittany Lions, among others.
Wisconsin has yet to land a commitment in the class of 2027. The program is still in the early stages of compiling its class of 2026, with only six players currently committed. Although the 2027 cycle won’t pick up until next calendar year, Hiller instantly becomes a major name to watch on the Badgers’ offer list.
