Russel Wilson played at both NC State (2007-2010) and Wisconsin (2011).
He transferred because NC State head coach tom O'Brien didn't want him to play minor league Baseball. Tom O'Brien expressed reservations with Wilson's decision, saying "Russell and I have had very open conversations about his responsibilities respective to baseball and football. While I am certainly respectful of Russell's dedication to baseball these last several years, within those discussions I also communicated to him the importance of his time commitment to NC State football."
