Jalanie George commits to Wisconsin as 2028 recruiting heats up

Following a series of commitments from top prospects, Jalanie George, a four-star EDGE from Goodyear, Arizona, has committed to Wisconsin. His decision was announced on October 1, 2026, and he chose the Badgers over programs like Washington, Auburn, and Miami. George is currently ranked as the No. 23 overall prospect for the 2028 recruiting cycle and may rise to five-star status as rankings develop. His commitment adds to the growing list of early recruits, with 17 of the top 100 prospects already committed as National Signing Day approaches in over a year. The trend of early commitments is likely to continue throughout this fall, especially among quarterbacks and other key positions.
