Badgers land 5th in-state recruit in 2014 class

Multiple outlets are reporting that Wisconsin has gotten a fifth verbal commitment from an in-state recruit for the 2014 class. This time it's Hartland (Arrowhead) HS defensive end Billy Hirschfeld committing to the Badgers.

Hirschfeld is a 6'6", 270lbs. defensive end and is rated as a three-star prospect by the 247compsite rankings and is a three star by 247sports, Scout, and Rivals. 

He joins Craig Evans, Jaden Gault, Conor Sheehey, and fellow Arrowhead teammate George Panos as Wisconsin commits just from the state of Wisconsin alone. It's the 3rd defensive recruit to commit to Wisconsin from the state and it may not be the last recruit of the week for UW according to reports as well. 

Be on the lookout for a possible commitment soon from a prospect out of Utah.
