The Wisconsin football staff recently awarded a scholarship to a player who probably should have been a four-star athlete by now.
Nick Abrams IIThe Maryland native and three-star recruit in the 2026 class currently has an overall rating of 89, just one point shy of a four-star rating. Abrams II noted that his scholarship offer was the first conversation he had with Wisconsin football staff, but the recruit is excited about what’s to come in the future.
Defensive coordinator and one of Wisconsin’s top recruiters, Mike Tressel, played a key role in recruiting the Abrams II. The talented linebacker has already received his tenth scholarship offer from the Badgers and currently has offers from four Big Ten Conference teams. Maryland, Penn State and Michigan State are the other three teams that have extended offers to the linebacker.
When asked about the initial interaction, Abrams II stated, “I had a few interactions here and there, but this was the first real one. I’m excited about coach Tressel, he seems like a great coach and someone I’d be excited to play for. The linebacker also added, “I’m also thrilled that our first real conversation was the biggest news where I found out I was offered a scholarship.”

As for what a talented defender is looking for in a program, Abrams II stated, “I’m looking for a school that will develop me and elevate me into the best player I can be.” The linebacker further added, “I want a school that will prepare me for life after football… connections that will prepare me for life.”

With Abrams II’s potential to join the Wisconsin football team, the question becomes how the recruit can make an impact on the team.
Abrams II is more than just a defender on the pitch, but also a physical freak that is truly a must-see in every game. The linebacker is a long player with a wingspan of 82 inches, which is quite impressive considering his height of 6 feet 2 inches. Abrams II noted that his wingspan allows him to “get out of blocks and make attacks that other players can’t.”
The linebacker is not only a substantial player, but also quick, as the Abrams II has incredible speed and an excellent ability to process what is ahead of him. The linebacker is consistently a great read, and combined with his length, he becomes a player that is extremely hard to break away from. Whether he needs to throw a substantial punch, get in sight, or rush the quarterback, Abrams II is the man to do it on the field.
