Boca Raton DB Fenelus commits to Wisconsin

The possibility of starting as a true freshman for a Big Ten team was just too much for Boca Raton defensive back Antonio Fenelus to ignore.

Fenelus verbally committed to the University of Wisconsin on Wednesday afternoon after meeting with Badger defensive coaches.

Wisconsin originally began recruiting Fenelus after noticing him during practice at the Outback All-Star game. After receiving more film on him, the Badgers brought Fenelus to Madison for an official visit this past weekend.

Fenelus was a South Florida Sun-Sentinel first-team All-County selection this season after recording 78 tackles and two interceptions. His other top choice was Florida Atlantic University.

"I love the coaches [at Wisconsin], they were real with me and told me the truth," Fenelus said. "I just felt like they were the most concerned about me."

Fenelus is the third Palm Beach County player in two years to commit to Wisconsin.

UW football: Badgers land DB from Florida
Jim Polzin - 1/23/2008 8:59 pm

Antonio Fenelus, a defensive back from Boca Raton, Fla., has verbally committed to play for the University of Wisconsin football team.

The South Florida Sun-Sentinel reported on its Web site Wednesday that Fenelus committed to the Badgers after meeting with members of the team's coaching staff earlier in the day.

The 5-foot-9, 170-pound Fenelus, who chose UW over Florida Atlantic, is believed to be the 23rd member of the Badgers' 2008 class. UW coach Bret Bielema will unveil the class on Feb. 6, the first day high school seniors can sign letter of intent.
