On Saturday morning, Wisconsin capped off a monster recruiting week with the biggest early get of the Luke Fickell era.
The Badgers have officially landed Oklahoma transfer quarterback Nick Evers. The Flower Mound, Texas native was a consensus four-star recruit in the 2022 class and the No. 9 quarterback overall according to 247Sports.
The 6-foot-3 transfer only attempted one pass during his freshman season as a Sooner, as he sat behind UCF transfer Dillon Gabriel.
Evers originally committed to Florida before deciding to flip to Oklahoma. While he isn’t someone that plays a true dual-threat style, he gives Fickell a mobile quarterback who can extend plays and make things happen with his legs.
Evers announced the news on Twitter:

Well, well, well…
I don’t think the #Badgers are done in the portal FWIW and the Nick Evers commitment is going to open a lot of doors from what I’m hearing…
