Korz Loken, a 4-star tight end and current Wisconsin commit, is actively recruiting Kingston Allen, a 4-star running back from Green Bay's Notre Dame Academy, to join him in Madison. Allen is considered the top in-state recruit that the Badgers have yet to land, and Loken is determined to change that as Wisconsin looks to continue its recent surge of keeping top local talent home.

Why it matters

Retaining the best high school players from within the state borders is crucial for the long-term success of the Wisconsin football program. The Badgers have had a strong recent track record of keeping top in-state recruits, and landing Allen would be another major win for head coach Luke Fickell and his staff.

The details

Allen, who ran for 3,436 yards and 57 touchdowns last season, has already lined up an official visit to Wisconsin on May 28th. While he's also considering other Midwest programs like Minnesota, North Dakota State, and Iowa, the Badgers are viewed as the heavy favorite to land the 4-star running back. Loken, one of Wisconsin's top recruits, has been actively recruiting Allen on social media and is determined to make him the final piece of the Badgers' in-state recruiting haul.

  • Allen is scheduled to take an official visit to Wisconsin on May 28th.
  • Loken posted on Twitter on April 1, 2026 saying 'Missing one... @KingstonAllen17', referring to Allen as the last top in-state recruit the Badgers need to land.
