The tarnishing of the Wisconsin Football brand writ large. While in-State recruiting is not the only way to skin the cat, this is a very troubling take. Luke Fickell was hired to exceed the accomplishments of his predecessor, not struggle to come close.

March morning. Milwaukee.

Brady Collins' strength and conditioning program has yet to produce notable results for the Badgers. Now in his 3rd year with Wisconsin Football, he is doubling down on adding weight to everyone. Bigger is better is the new mantra. Never mind speed and agility, also sorely lacking to date.

Wisconsin's $80 Million Man, Luke Fickell is on a charm offensive initiating a couple of high-profile media interviews this week, one with Madison Newspapers and, here, with the New York Times. How much longer must we suffer this insufferable man in Madison? 🙄 #OnWisconsin

WTF? The problems at UW Athletics are worse than we thought! 😳

Excellent interview here! Go watch it!

Beer sales at Camp Randall brought in a meager $3 million for Wisconsin's Athletics Department last season. Something is going to have to give here. Perhaps Mr. Fickell could pledge an annual portion of his salary to the NIL Collective? #onwisconsin

That awkward moment when you forget where you are. Twice.

Elon Musk made a hand gesture that resembled a Nazi salute. The anger and confusion that followed is just what a troll like Musk would want, Charlie Warzel writes. theatln.tc/212ISHY0

Jan 20, 1961. A blizzard the day before. Temperatures well below freezing. Without a coat or hat, JFK gave a speech we still quote today. Robert Frost, 86, recited a poem. Steinbeck and Hemingway and Rothko were among the VIPs. A million people gathered in the cold to hear it. This is the precedent.

Wonder how that will play to all those MAGA supporters?🤔

Cute pup, right? #WelshTerrierFans

The 2025 season could see Wisconsin's defense take another step backwards. This coaching staff has seen portal losses everywhere on defense and those have not been insignificant. A rebuild on that side of the ball could take years! #OnWisconsin

@welshterrierfans.bsky.social So happy you've done this!

Wisconsin's and Luke Fickell's portal needs are a long list especially when coupled with all the other off-season to-dos. Fortunately, it will be a longer than normal off-season.

Nothing says “lead the Pentagon” like mommy making phone calls for her very good boy.

Interesting press conference this afternoon from Luke Fickell on his new recruiting class which saw him both please and a bit contrite about recent events. One of the bigger take-aways: Fickell hinted there may be 2 hires to replace fired OC Phil Longo, both an OC and a QB coach.

A player the Badgers cannot afford to lose. Almost none of Fickell's first recruiting class remain with Wisconsin. What benefit is better recruiting if you cannot keep them on the roster?

Excellent news for Badger Football - Landyn Locke is staying committed which probably also means that his brother Braedyn is staying put despite the OC change!

So. This is where we are in American politics.

Where do Luke Fickell, Wisconsin football go after 5-game losing streak, loss to Minnesota?: If Fickell’s first two years at Wisconsin have proved anything, it’s that there are no guarantees in this process.

Best Badgers podcast on the internet IMO from Zach Heilprin and Jesse Temple. Thoughtful reporting and analysis without the fan boy hype.

The #Badgers season likely came to an end yesterday, the earliest end in 23 years. On the latest episode of The Camp, we tackle some of what happened vs Minnesota but focus more on what's next for Luke Fickell and Wisconsin. youtu.be/OP7hVY2icwE
