A Wisconsin cornerback enters the transfer portal

A Wisconsin cornerback is officially in the transfer portal. Redshirt-freshman cornerback Avyonne Jones announced his decision to enter on Wednesday afternoon.

Jones was originally a three-star recruit out of Southlake Carroll High School in Texas, and was known for his speed in the secondary as a high school prospect.

“You are everything a college football player dreams of,” said Jones while addressing Wisconsin’s fan base in his letter to the community that announced his transfer decision. “You have always shown me and my family love. Coming to Madison to play for Coach Chryst, Coach Leonhard, and Coach Poteat was a dream come true.”

The Johnson City, Illinois, native has starred the last few seasons at both quarterback and safety for Johnston City High School. He is the No. 6-ranked player in the state of Illinois and No. 21-ranked safety in the country according to 247Sports.

Brown is joining a talented Wisconsin recruiting class that has added cornerbacks Avyonne Jones and A’Khoury Lyde in the last few weeks. Although it should be noted that Brown is the first safety commit in Wisconsin’s class of 2022.

The Wisconsin football program is trending on 247Sports’ class of 2022 crystal ball, receiving four predictions in the last two weeks.

The latest is for 2022 cornerback Avyonne Jones, a former Oklahoma State commit who will be on campus this weekend.

Jones is 247Sports’ No. 1,016 player in the class of 2022, No. 100 cornerback and No. 142 player from his home state of Texas.

The cornerback has two crystal ball predictions for Wisconsin. A third is posted for him to choose Texas Tech. The latest prediction came from Oklahoma State insider Cody Nagel, so there is some out-of-market sentiment that Wisconsin is his destination.
