2025 Wisconsin Season Thread

[MrNubbz]

Please be today. The only thing is that there is nobody on the staff worth a shit. Maybe that doesn't matter at this point. 2-10 is the ceiling and they already have the 2 part of 2-10.

Losing to Iowa may be the Luke Fickell fireable moment the boosters need

I don't know when/how CFB coaches started accruing these gawdy buy outs on top of the already substantial contracts they landed. Like the contracts themselves weren't payment enough. The scale should be restructured,perhaps even eliminated.Admins, starting with the ADs maybe even the board of regents need some checks/balances installed.Can't believe it's went on this long,fans can't afford this shyt

[MrNubbz]

just goes to show coaching hires are complete roll of the dice. it's all about luck- never know til they get the job. Fickell was 11-2, 11-3, 9-1, 13-1 and 9-3 at Cinci- had made a CFP and was producing NFL draft picks on defense. He was the hottest name on the coaching boards when Wisconsin hired him. coaching hires are complete crap shoots.

  Good post, same thing with Scott Frost - he did at UCF what Cignetti is doing at IU. Younger guy and looked like a slam dunk hire and he just never got on track in Lincoln yet he checked all the boxes.Both he and Fickell are ,go figure.

  The big boner move IMHO was Mel Tucker who had cut his teeth coaching in Cleveland,Jax.,Chicago with a stop at Bama before taking the head job at Colorado and a 5-7 record his only year. Why the flipping hell MSU literally backed up the Brinks Truck for that erroneously,misplaced mope is truly a study in group stupid. A 5-7 record received that 90 million $$$ wind fall and all he had to do was behave

Unbelievable that ickell still has a job this morning.

WTF are they doing in Madison? The program is tanking.

There are 20K+ tickets for sale for this weekend's game with...

OHIO STATE.

You can go to the game for $30.00.

Damn be worth it just to see Camp Randall and have some Oktober Brats & Beer 

[Brutus Buckeye]

It does OSU a favor to keep him around another week.

Had they fired him yesterday, he could have rehabbed his image at VA Tech or whatever, and then landed the OSU job down the road. 

If they frog march him out there in front of his alma mater as a sacrificial lamb, let Ryan Day hang 100 on him, and then fire him for it? He'll never wash that stink off.

By keeping him around, the Wisconsin brass is showing that they really don't care about football.

Clearly, Penn State cares about football.

firing a coach midseason isn't always a great idea but, it worked for UCLA

[847badgerfan]

I talked to some friends yesterday.

He's lost the locker room.

He doesn't remember players' names or have a relationship with any of them.

I think he's an O$U plant, to wreck the Wisconsin program.

Or save his skin by pulling off the improbable
