Score another one for Coach Bret Bielema and the Wisconsin Badgers. A big one.
St. Francis High School offensive tackle Josh Oglesby, considered to be one of the state's top two prep football recruits from the class of 2007, has made a verbal commitment to attend the University of Wisconsin.
Oglesby stands 6 feet 7 inches and weighs 320 pounds. He is considered a five-star recruit and has been ranked nationally among class of '07 offensive linemen.
As a junior last season, Oglesby led a St. Francis offensive line that helped the Mariners produce 2,987 yards rushing, an average of 299 yards per game, as St. Francis went 6-4.
"He really solidified his feelings for Wisconsin at their spring game" last Saturday, St. Francis coach Doug Sarver said. "All the best programs in the country were recruiting him and he had gone to some camps last summer and really made a name for himself."
Those camps were at Ohio State, Michigan, Notre Dame and UW, Sarver said.
"The coaches that I've talked to feel he is a natural left tackle at the next level," Sarver said. "They say he is as good looking a kid as they've seen in many years."
Oglesby is the second commitment the Badgers have scored from the class of '07. The first was Middleton's Nick Toon, a receiver and the son of former UW great Al Toon.

Didn't Al Toon go to Tennessee???
