The Wisconsin football team has enjoyed a lot of success recruiting so far this summer. They’ve landed seven recruits since the start of June, including 4-star recruits Mason Posa, Jaimier Scott, and Logan Powell. Now, they’ve added another offensive weapon to their already-loaded 2025 recruiting class.

After a successful official visit to Wisconsin over the June 8th weekend, Eugene Hilton Jr. began trending towards the Badgers, picking up predictions from 247Sports and On3 recruiting experts. Today, he pulled the trigger and committed to Luke Fickell and the Wisconsin football program.


As a junior, Hilton recorded 46 receptions for 836 yards and ten touchdowns in ten games for the Zionsville (IN) Eagles, according to MaxPreps.com.

According to the 247Sports composite, Hilton is a 4-star receiver and is the 395th-overall prospect in the country, the 63rd player at his position, and the seventh overall player in Indiana. He held 28 Division I offers, including a handful from Power 4 schools. Some of his notable offers include Wisconsin, Georgia, Ole Miss, Missouri, and Michigan, among many others.

The addition of Hilton gives the Wisconsin football team their fifth 4-star recruit, based on internet composite ratings, and pushes the team to No. 12 in the 247Sport recruiting composite class rankings, right above Penn State.

Hilton joins Cameron Miller as the two receivers in the Badgers’ 2025 recruiting class.

Hilton is the son of former pro-bowl receiver T.Y. Hilton, who played 11 years in the NFL with the Indianapolis Colts.
