As of July 11, Wisconsin's class of 2026 ranks No. 49 in the nation and No. 15 in the Big Ten with 15 players committed. Four-star wide receiver Jayden Petit and four-star running back Amari Latimer impacted the program's national standing in late June. Still, UW's failure to secure additional commitments has left it in need of some new talent.

Marcus Freeman and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish got a talented safety prospect in Nick Reddish, making a solid addition to the 2026 class.

Reddish is the 26th player to commit to Notre Dame in the 2026 class. He's the 10th defensive player and the fifth defensive back to commit to Notre Dame in the 2026 class. He joins Pennsylvania star safety Joey O'Brien, elite Maryland cornerback Khary Adams, versatile Florida cornerback Ayden Pouncey and rangy cornerback Chaston Smith.
