Easily the best quarterback in the ACC the past 2 years. I've been a huge fan of this kid since his freshman year. I heard South Carolina has the best shot at landing him right now if he does decide to continue his college football career.

Wow, this kid was sure a talent. I love his game, and I hope for his sake he is able to continue on at another school.

Something about him not fully committing to the football program, and they have a very talented kid in Mike Glennon that they're ready to bring on as their starter.

Wilson was kind of jerking them around with baseball for the past few years.

Seems like Wisconsin and Auburn, from what I have heard, have the best shots.

I hope he doesn't choose Auburn.

Supposedly he could decide in the next couple of weeks. He has commented, but some "sources" have said he was very impressed with his visit to Wisconsin. It will be interesting to see who he chooses.

It would be great for him to come to Wisconsin. QB is the only big Question mark so if he could learn the offense quickly he could make a big difference there. With him I think the Badgers would be a favorite for the Big Ten Title and a possible dark horse national title contender.

Wisconsin is pretty easy to learn, snap the ball, turn, hand off to Halfback. Repeat. :p

yep pretty much :) He could probably make some big plays with the play action though.

Very true, play-action was probably one of the most effective plays they ran with him at NC State. Just Wisconsin will set it up even better since they actually have a great running game.

I'll definitely watch Wisconsin a lot this year to see how he does. I agree it will be an interesting year for Wisconsin.
