Wisconsin Badgers: Big Ten Rivals Fighting to Gain Ground on 2026 Commitment

The defensive lineman previously stated that he would consider taking game-day visits to each program during the upcoming season which could be a sign that the Spartans and Nittany Lions staff members have grown increasingly close. It is unclear exactly how either program would utilize Bah, but the defender has leaned towards programs who will provide an avenue to play on the end or as a tackle in the future.

To this date, Wisconsin has not spoken with Bah about his commitment status and whether or not Bah will potentially flip his commitment is a mystery. Given his recent actions, however, the recruiting process for the defensive lineman is not over and the situation will be one the Wisconsin Badgers staff will have to monitor until national signing day.

Potentially losing Bah this late in the cycle would be a tough blow to the 2026 class for Wisconsin, as the 60th ranked class will likely plummet a bit farther down the ladder. The three-star recruit can bounce between defensive end and defensive tackle, creating plenty of versatility along the defensive line while adding extreme power and aggression.

Without Bah, Wisconsin will be down to just Arthur Scott in the 2026 class after once considering holding three defensive line commitments in the class. The loss of Bah would cause the Badgers to have to place an emphasis on adding through the 2027 recruiting class or the transfer portal in order to continue to keep the defensive line full of talent.
