Just time will tell if that enters fruition, however regardless Wisconsin has an excellent start to the 2022 class with among their top of the board defenders committed.
While nothing appears immediately iminent in concerns to early choices by the remainder of the group– Carson Hinzman, Joe Brunner, Jerry Cross, Billy Schrauth, and Isaac Hamm– the new Badger dedicate will undoubtedly be in their ear to sign up with the fold as well, in hopes of building one of the very best recruiting classes in UW history.
While most of the summer season fireworks on the recruiting path for the Wisconsin Badgers have actually been due to the strong 2021 group that the personnel is assembling, the 2022 class simply got off to a huge start.
A 6-foot-2, 215 pound extremely looked for after possibility, Allen selected the Badgers over his just recently announced top-6 of Florida State, Ohio State, Michigan, Michigan State, and Notre Dame. He held an additional scholarship offer from Iowa, while Florida State and Ohio State had yet to use.
Ultimately the draw to play near home and for a winning program triumphed for Allen, and he might start a causal sequence in the 2022 class provided the high variety of highly promoted in-state gamers already with Wisconsin uses in hand. Allen has a close relationship with the other 6 in-state potential customers in his grade with Badger offers, and noted that they have a group chat currently.
In looking ahead at the future of the safety position, Wisconsin seems in good hands. Allen and excellent good friend Hunter Wohler– a fellow in-state four-star from the 2021 class– appear have the makings of a vibrant duo in the backend of the defense.
Boom.
In enjoying his sophomore highlights, his physicality instantly leaps out. A quick closing and hard striking defender, Allen also ran for over 600 lawns and 6 goals as a running back.
Maturing in the state, Allen noted in an interview Buckys 5th Podcast that he had an excellent relationship with Chris Haering and Jim Leonhard, whose message to the four-star professional athlete was that they desire to win a nationwide championship.
With his existing size and frame, Allen appears likely to be a fit at either safety or linebacker depending on how he grows. Allen informed B5Q that his greatest strength might be his adaptability, which makes sense offered his uncommon combination of size and athleticism to play multiple positions.
Allen initially set an early commitment date of January 20th, but after attending the Army All-American Game as an underclassmen, he pulled back from that choice date.
In-state four-star safety Braelon Allen out of Fond Du Lac decided to shut his recruitment down early and revealed his option via Twitter to become a Badger.
