It’s not finalized yet, but a report in the Wisconsin State Journal<\/a><\/em> has Badgers forward Jordy Murray giving up his senior year to sign a pro contract in Switzerland.<\/p>\n

“I told the (Wisconsin) coaching staff and my teammates that unless something changes in the next couple of days, I’m leaving,” Murray told the paper. “It’s hard to do this, but I think everyone understands.”<\/p>\n

Murray may or may not be eligible to play in Switzerland next season, however, if eligibility rules are rewritten. Murray’s older brother, Brady, who left North Dakota after his sophomore season in 2005, has played in Switzerland ever since.<\/p>\n
