Sheff continues to do a great job of upgrading the Badgers now and for the future. :)
We'll have to wait and see how many of Wisconsin's recruits are top 20 since that's rather indicative of long-term success. I've only superficially followed their recruiting, so maybe their fans can offer some educated guesses on that.
There are at least 2. He indicated as much in a pre-season meet and greet. He might have said 3, but I think he said 2. I'm going to guess Williams and Duello.
I would guess MacDonald is #91.

MTC - Are you allowed to put which number a specific recruit is on here? I just joined PrepVB and I'm not clear on how much JT allows to be shared on VT, but I thought copy/pasting like that was not allowed. I could be wrong, too.
Anyway, on topic, my prediction is that Madison Duello (OH) is the most highly ranked 2015 recruit for Wisconsin, based on JT's comments about her in a State Journal article on Wisconsin recruits: “My favorite is Duello because she is a true six-rotation player,” Tawa said. “She is proficient in the back row. She has an electric arm on the left and I really think she has a tremendously high ceiling. I think she’ll be an All-Big Ten performer, possibly as early as her sophomore year.”
Tionna Williams (MB) is probably also top 20, and I wouldn't be surprised to see Brooke Morgan (MB) in the top 50. That leaves Julia Saunders (RS) and Hannah Juley (S). I think Juley's ranking will probably suffer a bit just because she didn't play club this spring, choosing instead (in consultation with Sheffield, I heard) to continue rehabbing her ankle following surgery rather than rushing back in.
And now that the cat's out of the bag, I'm thrilled to read more about Amber MacDonald. She seems like exactly the sort of player Sheff and Dilly want in the back row.

Based on what I have read: Tionna Williams will be in the top 10 and Duello should be 11-20. My guess is Morgan will be around 30-40 and Saunders maybe 40-50 and Juley 50-60 (would be much higher if she hadn''t suffered an injury
