Wisconsin has landed two top forward targets in back-to-back days and very well may have just put the finishing touches on their 2020 recruiting class.

After pulling four-star center Steven Crowl (St. Paul, Minn.) on Tuesday, Greg Gard and the Badgers reeled in Top 100 power forward Ben Carlson (St. Paul, Minn.) less than 24 hours later.

The four-star center chose UW over Ohio State, Xavier, Stanford, Purdue, Creighton, Iowa, Colorado, Minnesota, Iowa State, Kansas State, Wake Forest, and others.

Carlson took his official visit to Wisconsin earlier this month:

"I definitely got a good feel for the sports atmosphere in Madison," he told Badger247. "It's a big college sports town. You want to play at a place where sports is the main thing going on. They weren't playing the best team, but it was still a crazy atmosphere."

Carlson had a final six of UW, Xavier, Purdue, Iowa State, Stanford, and Minnesota.

During his official visit, Carlson, who has been recruited by assistant coach Joe Krabbenhoft since his freshman year, said he meshed well with his future teammates.

"A big focus was on getting to know the players, so I hung out with them a lot," Carlson told said. "They talked about how the coaching staff tells you straight-up how everything is going to be, they don't sugarcoat anything. They told me about how much they liked it there."

"I had a pretty good idea of how Wisconsin was going in," he continued. "The biggest thing was getting to know the players and I really liked them. I know about the history and the campus, but getting to know the players was big for sure.

"They're pretty similar to me. I love the similarities between me and some of the players on the team."

With Carlson on board, the Badgers have a chance at their best recruiting class in 247sports composite history.

Up to five commitments in 2020, UW moves up to fourth nationally in the 247sports composite team recruiting rankings. Their highest finish ever came under Bo Ryan in 2006, when the program ranked 20th nationally.

Carlson is the nation's No. 82 ranked player in the 2020 class, according to the 247sports composite. That makes him the 11th-highest rated recruit in program history and the biggest addition for UW since Nate Reuvers (No. 66) in 2017.
