Wisconsin football recruiting: Quintez Cephus commits to the Badgers

The former DI-bound basketball star will head to Wisconsin to play a different sport.

The Wisconsin Badgers received some positive news on Friday when Macon, Ga. (Stratford Academy), wide receiver Quintez Cephus announced his commitment to play football in Madison. He declared his intentions via Twitter.

Cephus' recruitment has been an interesting one to follow. Up until early November, Cephus was all set to play college basketball for the Furman Paladins. He made the decision to follow his football ambitions instead, after an impressive senior season landed him scholarship offers from Wisconsin and Georgia Southern (Georgia Tech also has interest).
