A former Wisconsin QB will continue his athletic career playing baseball at Houston
Yes, you read that headline correctly. It isn’t often we see college athletes transfer schools to then play a different sport. But I guess if it would happen anywhere, it would happen at Wisconsin where there is no baseball team.
The move was made yesterday by Daniel Wright, a walk-on quarterback for the Badgers who announced he was transferring to Houston to continue his college athletic career with its baseball program.

Very excited to share that I have committed to the University of Houston to continue my career as a student-athlete! ⚾️
