The Wisconsin Badgers transfer portal hopes suffered a blow late Monday night as Oklahoma State transfer Wendell Gregory committed to the Kansas State Wildcats.

Gregory, an All-Big 12 selection as a redshirt freshman in 2025, was one of the best edge rushers in the transfer portal and one of the best overall players available this offseason. He accumulated 32 pressures, four sacks, and 19 stops, while having a pass-rush win rate over 17 percent, a top mark in college football.

He had gotten significant interest in the transfer portal, including from Texas Tech, Texas, Missouri, Kansas State, and Wisconsin. The Badgers impressively got him on a visit to campus, but he ultimately visited Texas and Kansas State afterwards before committing to the Wildcats.

Gregory was the highest-rated edge transfer remaining in the portal, according to On3, and is heading to his third school in three years after transferring from South Carolina to Oklahoma State following his true freshman season.

With Gregory not heading to Madison, the Badgers are still in search of one more edge rusher that could help this team in 2026. Wisconsin did pick up a commitment from Arkansas edge Justus Boone, but he profiles more as a run-stopper on the inside at 6’5, 290 pounds, potentially filling the Darryl Peterson role.

They also got Tennessee freshman edge transfer Jayden Loftin, for whom the Badgers were a finalist in the Class of 2025, getting an official visit in his recruitment before he committed to the Volunteers. Loftin redshirted his freshman year, recovering from a torn ACL he sustained during his senior year of high school.

Those two additions join Sebastian Cheeks, Nicolas Clayton, Tyreese Fearbry, Micheal Garner, Jaylen Williams, Samuel Lateju, and Yahya Gaad as Wisconsin’s outside linebacker group in 2026 so far.

The Wisconsin Lottery offers multiple draw games for those aiming to win big. Here’s a look at Jan. 12, 2026, results for each game:

You’ll pay a $15 fee up-front, plus $25 annually. Personalizing the characters is an extra $15 each year.

Customers who apply online and don’t want a personalized message could get their new plates within a week.

If you want to personalize the plate, you can see a preview online and check if the message is already taken. DMV staff then review the personalization requests, and delivery can take several weeks.
