The Georgia three-star committed following an official visit, citing the Badgers’ running back pipeline.

Overview

  • The Langston Hughes (Ga.) product had been committed to FIU since June before reversing course.
  • He said Wisconsin’s track record at running back and a path to early playing time drove his decision.
  • His recruitment intensified this fall with offers from Florida State, Auburn and Cincinnati before Wisconsin secured his pledge.
  • He is a Rivals Industry Ranking three-star and the No. 52 RB nationally, becoming Wisconsin’s roughly 15th 2026 commit and the second back alongside Amari Latimer, a notable loss for FIU.
