Badgers Land Transfer Receiver From Power 4 Program
Wisconsin football added some depth to the receiver room.
The Wisconsin football program capped off the week with a big recruiting win, snagging a former ACC wide receiver from the transfer portal.
Fresh off an official visit to Madison, Boston College transfer Joseph Griffin Jr. announced his commitment to the Wisconsin Badgers.
"After a great talk with Coach Luke Fickell I would like to say Go Badgers," Griffin wrote.
The addition of Griffin, a former four-star recruit with two seasons of eligibility left, bolsters the depth and experience of the Wisconsin football team's receiver room heading into 2024.
Wisconsin Adds Joseph Griffin to WR Room
In Griffin, the Wisconsin football program is gaining a 6-foot-3, 200-pound receiver from Massachusetts with 955 career snaps under his belt at the Power 4 level. He played for now Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley.
Griffin registered 18 catches for 234 yards and five touchdowns as a true freshman and tacked on another 25 grabs on 55 targets for 345 yards and one score as a sophomore. Notably, Griffin didn't drop a single pass during his freshman year and has a career drop percentage of just 6.5%. For reference, Bryson Green was the only Badgers receiver with a drop percentage lower (5.7%).
