Penniston reportedly looking to transfer

January 23, 2019 By Bill Scott

Kyle Penniston

According to 247Sports, Wisconsin Badger tight end Kyle Penniston is considering a transfer and is in the NCAA transfer portal.

Penniston has struggled to establish himself as the pass catcher he had hoped to be.  He’s played in 39 games with 21 starts, but he’s totaled just 16 receptions for 176 yards and four touchdowns.  Penniston had just three catches for 18 yards this past season.

Penniston played as a backup for two seasons behind Troy Fumagalli and then last season behind Jake Ferguson.

Penniston will be a redshirt senior this coming fall.  He hasn’t graduated yet, but if he does so in the spring, he could transfer to another school and play immediately.

Badgers survive upset bid by Georgia State

alex-hornibrookThe Wisconsin Badgers went into Saturday’s game against Georgia State as 34 1/2 point favorites.  The outcome was much different from what was anticipated.

Wisconsin’s defense was stellar as usual in the first half, but the Badgers managed a 6-0 lead at the break.

The Badgers came out of the locker room and increased that lead to 13-0, after Paul Chryst pulled quarterback Bart Houston for redshirt freshman Alex Hornibrook.

It was at that point that the Panthers scored a pair of touchdowns and jumped out in front 17-13 early in the fourth quarter.

Georgia State used a quick passing game and didn’t allow the Badger pass rushers to make an impact.

The Badgers were able to regain the lead when Hornibrook tossed a short touchdown pass.  They would add a Rafael Gaglianone field goal and then get a big defensive stop to hang on for the win. [Read more…]

Football Badgers get commitment from California TE

February 18, 2014 By Bill Scott

Wisconsin didn’t sign a tight end in their 2014 recruiting class but they have a commitment from a highly rated one in the 2015 class.

Kyle Penniston is a highly ranked tight end from Santa Ana, California.  He announced his decision to play for the Badgers via Twitter.

The 6’4 Penniston is the No. 7 ranked tight end nationally by ESPN and Rivals.  He chose Wisconsin over Washington State, Florida State and Miami.

Kenniston is the second prep player to make an oral commitment to the Badgers, joining quarterback Austin Kafentzis from Sandy, Utah.
