Wisconsin is working on its 2024 recruiting class under new head coach Luke Fickell. On Saturday, the Badgers added the first running back pledge of the cycle.

The player is Gideon Ituka, a 5-foot-9 and 220-pound RB out of Gaithersburg High School in Maryland. Ituka held offers from Maryland, Tennessee, Boston College, Syracuse, Liberty and others at the time of his commitment.

According to the 247 Sports Composite, Ituka is a 3-star recruit and the 78th RB prospect in the country for the class of 2024. He’s also the 25th player out of Maryland for the cycle.

Ituka joins a 2024 recruiting class for Wisconsin that is up to 15 commitments and currently ranks as the 11th recruiting class in the country per the 247 Sports Team Composite. He is the first RB addition for the Badgers this cycle.

Wisconsin’s lineage of elite RBs is well-established and Ituka will look to be the next player to develop into a star for the Badgers.
