College Football: Anthony Maddie leaving Western Michigan University

Updated: July 15, 2013 10:50PM

Former Aurora Christian quarterback Anthony Maddie has left the Western Michigan football program, according to a report on mlive.com.

First-year Broncos coach P.J. Fleck confirmed the signal-caller?s decision in a story filed by Western Michigan football beat writer David Drew.

Maddie impressed at times during spring practice and had edged fellow redshirt freshman Zach Terrell for the backup quarterback job to senior starter Tyler Van Tubbergen entering fall camp, the report said.

Fleck has received a verbal commitment from Sturgis (Mich.) High School quarterback Chance Stewart, who is ranked a four-star recruit and is expected to sign with WMU in the spring. Recruited by several Big Ten schools, Stewart is expected to compete for the starting job as a true freshman in 2014.

That may have influenced Maddie?s decision, who is thought to be headed to Northern Illinois, which recruited him in high school. The Huskies have three incoming freshmen ? running back Joel Bouagnon, defensive back Brandon Mayes, and wide receiver Chad Beebe ? from Aurora Christian.

Maddie, who is from Plainfield and transferred to Aurora Christian after his sophomore year at Joliet Catholic, would have to sit out a season or join the Huskies as a walk-on.

?I didn?t release him,? Fleck is quoted by Drew. ?? I?m not going to release him to an in-conference rival and with him knowing our entire system as a quarterback and say, ?Here you go. Here?s your release.? ?
