National Signing Day 2016: Badgers Add WR Quintez Cephus

The Wisconsin Badgers National Signing Day 2016 class is well underway, and recently added Quintez Cephus, a three-star wide receiver out of Macon, Georgia.

Cephus, a 6-foot-2, 190-pound receiver from Stratford Academy in Macon, Georgia, was originally committed to Furman University to play basketball. He later changed his mind and decided he wanted to pursue football, and Wisconsin was the beneficiary.

With a basketball background obvious in his game, Cephus has the ability to go up and make a play. That ability will be needed in a Wisconsin offense that has lacked elite athleticism at wide receiver for some time.
