After Wisconsin's complete dismantling loss to the Iowa Hawkeyes 37-0, a Badgers commit has now received an offer from the Nebraska Cornhuskers and is even looking to take a trip to Lincoln.
Three-star defensive lineman Djidjou Bah, who has been committed to the Badgers since June 1, is now potentially looking to jump ship. The 2026 recruit is the No. 67 defensive lineman in his class and the No. 13 player in the state of Tennessee, according to 247Sports.
Nebraska, which is looking for more depth and help on its defensive line going forward, is trying to flip the commitment of Bah. With Wisconsin's incredibly rough start to the season, many believe that head coach Luke Fickell is the next coach on the chopping block.

There are three things that happen when a head coach is fired. The media immediately named at least three to five coaches who could be the replacement, players entered the transfer portal, and committed players either decommitted or flipped their commitment.
So if Fickell is fired, it is open season for Wisconsin's commits, and this seems to already be happening. It is hard to believe that Wisconsin will finish the season with Fickell still the head coach, so it feels like a matter of when it will happen, versus if it will happen.
Bah could be a good addition to Rhule's 2026 recruiting class, which is currently ranked No. 79 overall and No. 17 in the Big Ten, according to 247Sports. Rhule only has 11 players in the Class of 2026 at the moment, but, of course, there is still room and the possibility for more.
