Wisconsin transfer wide receiver target schedules visit to ACC school
Wisconsin transfer wide receiver target schedules visit to ACC school West Georgia transfer wide receiver Karmello English left Madison, Wisconsin, without committing to the Badgers. 247Sports' Matt Zenitz reported on Friday that English, who visited Wisconsin early this week, has since scheduled a visit to Cal. The wide receiver is in the transfer portal after one year at West Georgia (Football Championship Subdivision). That campaign followed multiple seasons at Big Ten rival Michigan, where he originally signed as a four-star recruit, the No. 188 overall player and the No. 26 wide receiver in the class of 2023. His contributions were limited during his one season with the Wolverines. The 5-foot-11 wideout then broke out at West Georgia in 2024, catching 48 passes for 693 yards and two scores. English is currently listed as a three-star transfer recruit, ranked as the No. 1,278 overall player in the portal and No. 220 wide receiver. He is transferring with two years of eligibility remaining. Wisconsin appeared to be an early favorite in the receiver's transfer recruitment, as it was the first to land a visit. Cal is now a notable contender, with other potential suitors unclear. Wisconsin continues to look for wide receiver depth after the transfer departures of Mark Hamper and Quincy Burroughs. The team recently offered BYU's Keelan Marion. It also showed interest in several other transfer receivers who have since committed elsewhere.

Wisconsin to host transfer wide receiver, former Michigan Wolverine on multi-day visit
Wisconsin to host transfer wide receiver, former Michigan Wolverine on multi-day visit Wisconsin is hosting West Georgia transfer wide receiver Karmello English on a visit this week, according to his agent. English is set to visit Madison on Monday, April 21, and Tuesday, April 22. The Badgers appear to be emerging from a large group of programs interested in the wide receiver, one that reportedly includes Toledo, Coastal Carolina, Austin Peay, North Alabama, Jacksonville State, Temple, Buffalo, Ball State, Baylor, Missouri State, Appalachian State and FAU. English entered the transfer portal last week after one season at West Georgia (Football Championship Subdivision). He originally began his career at Michigan, where he signed as a four-star recruit, the No. 188 overall player and the No. 26 wide receiver in the class of 2023. The Phenix City, Alabama, native caught one pass for a four-yard touchdown during his one season with the Wolverines. He then excelled as a sophomore at West Georgia in 2024, finishing second on the team in both receptions (48) and receiving yards (693). He also added two receiving touchdowns to that tally. The 5-foot-11 wideout also returned punts during each of his first two collegiate seasons. He totaled 130 return yards on 18 opportunities as West Georgia's primary punt returner last season. English is in the portal with two years of eligibility remaining. 247Sports has yet to assign him a transfer rating. Wisconsin is looking to add depth to its wide receiver corps after the transfer departures of Mark Hamper and Quincy Burroughs. English is one of several reported interests, along with Quaron Adams (South Dakota) and Xavier Loyd (Illinois State). With English scheduled for a multi-day visit to Madison this week, the receiver's only reported visit to date, it's reasonable to put him atop the Badgers' transfer receiver big board.
