The Badgers are trending up for one of their targets in the transfer portal.
The Wisconsin Badgers are among the final three to get visits for former Baylor Bears commit Noah Boyed, according to Jeff Goodman.

Boyed, a center from McCook Community College, entered the transfer portal after his second season, in which he played just five games due to injury.
After initially committing to Baylor in November, Boyed requested a release from his National Letter of Intent, as top recruiter Alvin Brooks III headed to Kentucky.
Now, he’s reportedly considering Wisconsin, Oregon, and LSU as his final three schools. Intriguingly, the Badgers could face both Oregon and LSU next season, as the Ducks are heading to the Big Ten, while the Tigers are now a part of the Greenbriar Tip-Off alongside the Badgers, Pittsburgh, and UCF in November.
The Badgers got significant traction in the transfer portal last week, landing guard Camren Hunter, forward Xavier Amos, and wing John Tonje, but head coach Greg Gard shared that the team isn’t done yet, as they still have one more scholarship to fill for the upcoming season.
That was expected to be used on a backup big man behind Steven Crowl, and Boyed could fill that role, should he choose to join the Badgers.
