Wisconsin football recruiting: Dallas RB Jordan Stevenson decommits from Texas

Wisconsin could be close to landing another running back for 2015.

Four-star Dallas (South Oak Cliff) running back Jordan Stevenson has apparently decommitted from Texas.

The move isn't necessarily surprising -- Texas has continued to recruit other running backs even after landing a verbal from Stevenson in October 2013.

Stevenson, listed at 5'8, 185 pounds, has been linked to Wisconsin throughout the latter part of his recruitment. If he does indeed flip, Stevenson would become UW's second running back commit for 2015, joining Davon Crookshank, a three-star recruit from Texas. Wisconsin also has two other commits from South Oak Cliff for 2015: three-star cornerbacks Takadrae Williams and X'zaviae Ausborne.

We're still waiting to hear about the next step in Stevenson's recruitment, but the momentum is clearly trending Wisconsin's way. Decommiting from Texas was always going to the be first step for any flip to Wisconsin, and one look at 247Sports' latest Crystal Ball predictions indicates Wisconsin is the odds-on favorite here.

We'll keep you posted here on B5Q as soon as we hear more.
