The Badgers are firmly in the race for one of the best offensive linemen in the country.
It’s no secret that offensive line coach A.J. Blazek has been an early success for the Wisconsin Badgers, as he helped the program accumulate a second consecutive top-tier class at the position.
Wisconsin earned commitments from five linemen in the 2025 class after getting five in the 2024 class, with tackles Cam Clark, Michael Roeske, and Nolan Davenport, as well as interior linemen Logan Powell and Hardy Watts all joining the program.
Well, the Badgers are going after some heavy hitters in the 2026 class and that includes four-star offensive lineman Gregory Patrick, who recently released a list of his top schools, which involves Wisconsin.
Thank you to the amazing coaches & programs who have invested time in recruiting me. I’m extremely humbled & grateful for their interest. Going into my junior year, I will be focusing on these 9 schools, but most of all on my @PNHuskieFB brothers & pursuing our goals! #RollSkies pic.twitter.com/swCJaxaQdP

The Badgers cracked the early list for Patrick alongside Alabama, Michigan, Michigan State, Minnesota, Notre Dame, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Penn State.
Patrick, a native of Portage, Michigan, is seen as a top-two recruit in the state for the Class of 2026.
Standing 6’4, 280 pounds, Patrick could project more to the interior, but currently plays tackle and has a big wingspan.
The Badgers offered him back in March, serving as one of the later offers for the Michigan lineman, but nonetheless cracked his top list of schools.
Can the Badgers continue their strong offensive line recruiting and carry it over to the 2026 class?
