Clint Cosgrove sits down with 2024 tight end Robert Booker to break down his commitment to Wisconsin. Booker discusses how it feels to be the newest Badger, why he shut his recruitment down and chose Wisconsin now, players and coaches he connected with throughout the recruiting process, the pride he takes in staying home and more.
WHY THIS IS BIG FOR WISCONSIN...
Booker to Wisconsin is big on a number of fronts and further proof that the new Wisconsin staff can flat out recruit. The Waunakee, Wisconsin standout is a long and athletic tight end capable of stretching the field and creating mismatches in a number f ways. Booker has the size and athleticism to make an early impact as a receiver and at 6-foot-6 he also has the frame to hold additional mass and grow into an on the ball tight end as he develops. Booker's versatility and upside are what make him special and even as good as he is right now, the Wisconsin native is only scratching the surface of the player he will eventually become.
Booker joins Grant Stec as the second 2024 tight end to commit to the Badgers this week and the duo have a chance to terrorize Big Ten defenses for years to come. Tight end has been a position of need for Wisconsin and they have more than solidified the future of the position with these two new additions.
