TheWisconsin Badgers have already compiled a neat 2027 recruiting class that currently ranks No. 24 in the country, with six four-stars and 16 three-stars. However, the Badgers’ recruiting class did take a slight hit earlier this week when EDGE Darin Graham decommitted from the class.
I would like to thank the University of Wisconsin and the football staff for the opportunity.

Graham’s dismissal is a slight hit to the recruiting class
According to 247Sports, Graham is currently rated as the nation’s No. 851st-best prospect and 57th-rated edge rusher at an 88 rating.Currently, there are 12 defensive recruits enlisted to Wisconsin’s
2027 roster; breaking it down even further, two of them (Brody Pfannenstiel and Isaac Miller) are incoming edge rushers. Combined with the fact that there will be a further transfer portal class, it does create a blurred path for Graham to find the field during his early years. As of publishing, the Badgers currently hold one of the best defenses in the country through five games of the 2026 season, with Luke Fickell’s squad holding a 4-1 record as Wisconsin allows just 258.5 yards per game.
