The Badgers have locked in another defensive lineman for an official visit ahead of a busy June.
The Wisconsin Badgers have locked in an official visit with 2025 three-star defensive lineman Jayquan Stubbs for the weekend of June 14th, he announced.

Stubbs, a native of Ohio, was offered earlier in the spring and had a visit planned near the end of April, but couldn’t make the trip.
“The feeling was surreal and incredibly rewarding,” Stubbs said about the offer in April. “It was a culmination of hard work, dedication, and a sense of accomplishment knowing that my efforts had paid off.”
Now, he’s locked in an official visit, and he’ll take a look at Madison before making a decision on his future.
The Badgers believe Stubbs could play either defensive end or defensive tackle, as the 6’6, 250-pound lineman could grow more into his frame to move inside or remain comfortable as is on the outside.
Stubbs has grown a relationship with defensive line coach E.J. Whitlow, which has been a big factor for Wisconsin in his recruitment.
“It’s been amazing,” Stubbs said of his growing relationship with Whitlow. “He is a great guy that wants to develop me and get me to the next level and help me get my pass rush and run tackles to another level.”
Currently, Stubbs has official visits planned for West Virginia and Wisconsin, while teams such as Minnesota and Purdue are also showing good interest.
