The Badgers received some bad news on Thursday. 4-star running back Jordan Stevenson has been denied admission into the University of Wisconsin and will get his release from the school.

247 Sports has confirmed the news:

Badgers coach Paul Chryst and running backs coach John Settle both spoke to Stevenson this afternoon and informed him that Wisconsin’s Chancellor denied the student-athlete admissions.

247Sports.com has confirmed this situation through a source on both ends.

Stevenson will receive his release from Wisconsin in the morning and be eligible to attend a new school of his choice as he’s an NCAA qualifier.

Stevenson will have suitors as long as he can qualify. He was originally committed to Texas before Wisconsin plus had offers from UCLA, Alabama, and Ohio State.
