Will Wisconsin become a hub for international talent after recent commits?
The Wisconsin Badgers put the finishing touches to their 2024 class on Friday, adding Italian center Riccardo Greppe to their freshmen group, joining four-star guard Daniel Freitag and three-star Jack Robison.
Greppe is the latest international recruit to commit to Wisconsin, following 2025 guard Hayden Jones, who is a New Zealand native.
Before that, Serbian center Andrija Vukovic was initially expected to join the Badgers, but issues arose, and that no longer seems to be the case this year.
This offseason, Wisconsin made an effort to bolster their international recruiting, keeping Kirk Penney, who was helpful in the Jones commitment, and adding assistant coach Lance Randall, who has connections in the area as well.
Now, with several recruits beginning to pick Wisconsin, can the Badgers maintain their efforts on the international end and perhaps even improve as a team in that category?
While an international hub was more wishful thinking, the relationships built by the coaching staff should only further the connection the school has to the overseas side.
From here on, it’s time to capitalize on them and find good fits, especially with the ever-changing landscape of college basketball, with teams focusing more on the transfer portal rather than putting a strenous amount of time into the high school side of recruiting.

Spring has come to Wisconsin – and the weather is finally starting to show it
Wisconsin warms up as spring officially arrives
It’s finally feeling like spring in southeastern Wisconsin as temperatures rise and snow begins to melt.
It’s officially spring, as of Friday, March 20 – at least according to astronomical seasons. And the weather in southeastern Wisconsin seems to be getting on the same page.
Temperatures in the Milwaukee area March 20 are expected to be in the mid-50s, with the potential to reach 60 degrees. On Saturday, March 21, temperatures will likely rise to the low to mid-60s, said Aidan Kuroski, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Milwaukee/Sullivan.
Kuroski said if the conditions are right, it’s possible March 21 may get even warmer.
“I’m not going to competely rule out 70 – although I think it’s unlikely,” he said.
For many Wisconsinites, the spring-like temperatures are a welcome change after the previous weekend’s blizzard that brought more than two feet of snow to parts of the state.
Over the weekend, any lingering snow in southeastern Wisconsin is likely to fully melt, Kuroski said.
Temperatures will get a little cooler Sunday, March 22, in the mid 40s and low 50s, and by Monday, March 23 likely in the low 40s – primarily due to onshore winds from Lake Michigan, Kuroski said. But it should warm slightly again by Tuesday, March 24.
“During these warm spells, the wind direction – especially for Milwaukee, anywhere close to the lake – the wind direction is massive for what we’re capable of reaching for high temperatures,” Kuroski said.
Easterly winds, he said, will bring in cool air from Lake Michigan, while winds coming from the south or west will bring warmer temps.
The weather should stay mostly dry as well, with a slight possibility for some rain Sunday, March 22, and potentially a round of rain in the middle of the following week, Kuroski said.
