–4-star S Braedyn Moore, Stephen T. Badin High School, Hamilton, Ohio (#336 national, #15 athlete, and #11 in OH.)
Braedyn Moore committed to the Wisconsin Badgers on Monday night after taking an official visit to Madison last weekend. He had been committed to the Cincinnati Bearcats since April before backing off his pledge on November 30 due to Luke Fickell leaving for Wisconsin. As a result, Moore becomes the highest-rated commit in a Badgers class, ranked No. 69 overall and No. 13 in the Big Ten. However, that ranking will only last for a while, as it is only a matter of time before Fickell gets things rolling on the recruiting front for the Badgers.
