Steele Harris, a three-star wide receiver from Great Falls, Montana, has committed to the University of Wisconsin, marking a significant addition to the Badgers' 2027 recruiting class. This decision comes after a successful official visit, where Harris was impressed by the hospitality and the fit he felt with the team.
Harris, who had offers from several prominent programs, including Arizona State, Utah, and Michigan State, ultimately chose Wisconsin. His decision was influenced by the strong relationship he built with assistant coach Ari Confesor, who praised Harris's versatility and route-running abilities. Confesor believes Harris will be a valuable asset in the Badgers' offense.
As a junior, Harris demonstrated his talent, catching 42 passes for 781 yards and seven touchdowns. Over the past two seasons, he has accumulated nearly 1,400 receiving yards and 11 scores, solidifying his status as a top prospect. His commitment is the second wide receiver addition for Wisconsin in the 2027 class, joining Jai Jones.
Harris expressed his excitement about the opportunity to team up with Wisconsin's quarterback commit, Jack Sorgi, and the development of the quarterback room. He believes the addition of Sorgi and the strategic offensive schemes will make the Badgers a formidable force in the future.
The commitment of Steele Harris is a significant boost for Wisconsin, and his older brother, Reed, currently plays for Arizona State. With his early enrollment in January, Harris is expected to make an immediate impact. However, the question remains whether there's a chance for a last-minute flip, as Harris has also scheduled an official visit to California.
Despite the potential for last-minute changes, Harris remains confident in his decision, citing the strong connections and offers from Wisconsin. This commitment further solidifies the Badgers' position as a top-tier program in college football, with a talented group of recruits for the 2027 season.
