Wisconsin football offers one of Sacramento State's class of 2027 commits
Notably, McPike committed to Sacramento State on July 4. His offer sheet has grown since that date, with Wisconsin, Purdue and Eastern Kentucky all joining his recruitment. The Paducah, Kentucky, native also holds offers from Kentucky, Michigan State, Missouri, Nebraska, Ole Miss, Tennessee and others.
247Sports has yet to assign a star rating or position ranking to the 6-foot-1 wide receiver. Despite his commitment to Sacramento State, On3/Rivals lists Missouri as the current favorite in his recruitment at 50%, with Ole Miss (22.9%) and Tennessee (19.6%) also top contenders.
McPike Jr. joins Wisconsin's loaded group of wide receiver offers in the class of 2027. That list also includes five-star prospects Monshun Sales and Lawrence Britt, as well as top-ranked four-stars Myles McAfee, Quentin Burrell, Kesean Bowman (Oregon commit), Dakota Guerrant and Damani Warren.
Wisconsin has yet to land a commitment in the 2027 cycle. Its primary focus remains on 2026, where the program's class of 14 commitments ranks just No. 60 nationally and No. 16 in the Big Ten.

NFL coordinator puts Packers star in rare stratosphere because of his unique skillset that separates him from most peers
NFL coordinator puts Packers star in rare stratosphere because of his unique skillset that separates him from most peers originally appeared on A to Z Sports. The Green Bay Packers achieved rare free agency success last season. The highest best, and also the most successful, was the addition of safety Xavier McKinney on a four-year, $67 million contract to take him away from the New York Giants. In his first season as a Packer, McKinney was second in the NFL in interceptions and made the First-Team All-Pro for the first time in his Jeremy Fowler is publishing the positional rankings this week, and McKinney was third at safety, just behind Baltimore Ravens' Kyle Hamilton and Detroit Lions' Brian Branch (which is already questionable). McKinney only had fewer first-place votes than Hamilton and was one of four safeties to appear on every ballot. An unnamed NFL coordinator had something particularly interesting to say about the Packers defensive star, and it's why he's so impactful for Jeff Hafley's defense."Whoo, that guy's a player," the coordinator said. "One of the first safeties that can do it all." View the to see embedded media. McKinney's numbers from last season prove how versatile he is. The safety played 595 snaps deep, 340 in the box, 88 in the slot, 38 closer to the line of scrimmage, and four as an outside cornerback. He had eight interceptions, a sack, four pressures, 62 tackles, 12 stops, three pass breakups, and allowed an insane 56.4 passer rating when NFL personnel evaluator mentioned how smart McKinney is, beyond his physical skills."Multidimensional traits, high football IQ, range over the top with the ability to play man coverage over slot receivers," he told ESPN. "Has the playmaking element to his game." Even better for the Packers, Xavier McKinney is still under contract for three more seasons. The star defensive back is slated to make $12.1 million in 2025, $13.35 million in 2026, and $16.75 million in 2027—all extremely reasonable numbers for a player of his the to see embedded media.
