The class of 2026 recruiting cycle has quieted over the last few weeks. Official visits have concluded, plus most of the class’ top recruits have announced their verbal commitments.
July is college football’s closest thing to a month off in today’s age. There are no bowl games, no transfer portal window, no training camp practice and, for these purposes, no recruiting visits or contact. The closest thing to news that we get is a commitment or two and the start of dedicated season preparation.
That preparation will pick up significantly next week, as the Big Ten holds its media days in Las Vegas, Nevada, from July 22-24. Wisconsin is one of six programs scheduled for Wednesday, July 23’s session
Before that date turns full focus to the fast-approaching season, it’s worth taking a few late-summer looks at the Big Ten team recruiting rankings for the class of 2026. The rankings are close to final, with limited commitments trickling in throughout the month.
