Here is the official post confirming the news:

Per 247Sports, the Minneapolis area star was recruited by the likes of Nebraska, Minnesota, Notre Dame, Iowa, Iowa State, and others.

It's a huge get for a Wisconsin program that has had a noted dip in recruiting success of late.

However, they still are doing a great job as a program of recruiting in rival states, having landed Nolan Winter of Minnesota in the 2023 Class, and Freitag joins fellow Minnesotan Jack Robison in the 2024 Class for Badger basketball.

The Wisconsin Badgers finished last season with a record of 20-15.
