Wisconsin Football 2026 DL Commitment Takes Big SEC Official Visit

A Wisconsin football commitment took an official visit with a familiar SEC team this past weekend but remains locked into his choice.

Djidjou Bah, a 2026 three-star Tennessee native, is a talented defensive lineman who held a scholarship from Wisconsin for an extremely short period of time before taking an official visit and announcing his commitment. Bah, who is one of the bigger commitments in the recruiting class for the Badgers, acted quickly with Wisconsin and has since been in contact with other programs.

The Wisconsin football commitment locked in an official visit with the Missouri Tigers, a staff who Bah has grown fond of and had nothing but positive things to say about. Missouri has been in connection with many Wisconsin targets including defensive backs Jowell Combay and Tony Forney. Now, the Tigers are making a push for Bah who could potentially opt into flipping his commitment as Missouri continues to build a 2026 class.

Could Wisconsin Football Commitment Djidjou Bah Flip his Verbal Commitment?

While Bah and the Tigers speaking and visiting with each other could potentially be a bad sign for the Wisconsin football program, the recruit could also be doing his due diligence.

Previously, the last time a Wisconsin football commitment took an official visit, Carmelow Reed traveled down to Ole Miss and later flipped his commitment to the Rebels. While many Badgers fans may be weary with Bah also taking a visit deep into SEC country, the recruit will likely not leave Madison as long as the Wisconsin staff has anything to say about it.

Bah is one of the more talented and physical recruits in the 2026 recruiting class that the Wisconsin football staff has put together. The defensive lineman plays with a high-motor, pressures the quarterback, and disrupts the offense which are all things the Badgers are aiming to do more of moving forward.

Potentially losing Bah would be a big blow to the Wisconsin class despite having another commitment at the position in three-star defender Arthur Scott. Bah plays football exactly the way the Wisconsin football staff wants to play, and the recruit is also one of the last defensive lineman who was on the board for the staff. The other remaining lineman is currently Ben Duncum, a three-star recruit from Texas who is currently tied to Kentucky ahead of his commitment announcement.
