Looks like a grass spider to me, maybe a wolf spider? Definitely not a recluse
Yeah, after more research I believe it’s a Rabid Wolf Spider
This looks exactly like my spider, which I decided is a barn funnel weaver. The females hang around in their webs (which are asymmetrical, tangled, cobweb-looking) and the males wander around to find females.
