Hilton is a big addition to Wisconsin’s class of 2025. The Badgers have the No. 12 recruiting class in the nation and 19 commitments.

Hilton’s father, T.Y. Hilton, played in the NFL for over 10 seasons and accumulated 9,812 receiving yards along with 53 career receiving touchdowns. T.Y. Hilton primarily played for the Indianapolis Colts.
Eugene Hilton looks to make a name for himself at the college level. Hilton plays high school football for Zionsville High School in Zionsville, Indiana.
The 6-foot-2, 195-pound wide receiver recruit is ranked as the No. 395 recruit in the country, the No. 63 wide receiver and the No. 7 player in Indiana, according to 247Sports.
On film, the four-star receiver displays a good combination of speed and body control. Hilton is capable of winning contested catches.
