UPDATE: Stevenson has received his written release from Wisconsin.

Wisconsin running back signee Jordan Stevenson (Dallas/South Oak Cliff) was denied admissions by the University of Wisconsin.

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.

The four-star recruit is ranked as the nation's No. 17 running back and the No. 30 prospect in Texas in the 2016 class by 247Sports.com Composite Rankings.
