Former Kansas State QB to visit UW Monday

Madison - Quarterback Allan Evridge, who left the Kansas State program last week and is mulling transferring to either the University of Wisconsin or Texas Christian University, is scheduled to meet with the UW coaches and players on Monday.

Evridge's mother, Lori, told the Journal Sentinel tonight that Allan was en route to Madison.Allan Levridge plans to tour the UW facilities Monday and attend practice, which is set for 3:45 p.m. at Camp Randall Stadium.

He plans to return home Tuesday and may still visit another school. However, he intends to make his final decision sometime this week.

Allan Evridge visited the TCU campus in Fort Worth, Texas, on Friday and attended the team's pre-season practice. He wants to choose a school quickly so he can enroll for the fall semester. Classes open on Aug. 21 at TCU and on Sept. 5 at UW.

Under NCAA rules, if Evridge transfers to UW or another Division I-A school he will have to sit out the 2006 season and will have just two seasons of eligibility remaining.

Evridge started six games as a redshirt freshman last season for the Wildcats and passed for a school freshman record 1,365 yards. He completed 102 of 213 passes (47.9%) with seven interceptions. However, he passed for a Kansas State freshman record six touchdowns and rushed for 213 yards. He led the Wildcats in total offense with 174.2 yards per game.
