What in the world could a QB see in Wisconsin to make them want to commit more than a year early?

Quarterback Graham Mertz ‘sticking with Wisconsin’ commitment amid growing interest

What was it he liked so much about Wisconsin?

“Everything,” Graham Mertz said. “You can’t go wrong with the education, the game day experience, the amount of support the fans have for the team and then just the players on the team. Coach Chryst is a great guy. Coach Budmayr, our relationship, all three of us, it’s just getting stronger. We’re going to get this ’19 recruiting class going.”

Ron Mertz was an offensive lineman for Minnesota in the late 1980s. He remembered being recruited by then-Iowa linebackers coach Barry Alvarez, who went on to lead Wisconsin’s historic turnaround after he became coach in 1990. Alvarez is now the school’s athletic director.

“Just the way he’s turned that program to be such a successful, credible and high-character kind of program, you never hear anything negative about what he’s doing and what the Badgers program is all about,” Ron said. “So the reputation has been there.

“And really kind of on Graham’s behalf, he’s a relationship person. I think he has a pretty strong sense of the kind of people he wants to be around. From Day 1, Coach Budmayr, Coach Chryst and even from my memory, Coach Alvarez, had that.”
