Congratulions Badger faithful, you are getting a great coach and recruiter. He will help put you in the top ten on on the way to the playoffs. Madison is going to go crazy.
As a Badger fan, I understand your feeling. I can tell you that there are a lot of Badger fans that feel now that U of Cincinnati and U of Wisconsin are intertwined now. I will cheer for U of C every Saturday unless they are playing my Badgers.
Great coach and amazing hire! That said Nebraska won the press conference today hands down... having the team present was nice to see but otherwise this was played 'safe'. Was there a fear of having the media ask the questions??? The future should be exciting in the Big Ten!
@HigherVids in 2016 and 2019 suffered embarrassing losses in the big ten championship by blowing 14 point halftime leads. In 2017 blew a chance at the college football playoffs by losing to ohio state in the big ten championship game. So I wouldn't consider those great seasons, but I believe fickell can make up for the chryst years by eventually winning a big ten championship like bielema did in his reign.
New rule...if we are losing at home going into the 4th quarter, no jump around...what is there to be jumping around about if we are losing? UW Football is all of us and lets support our Badgers by implementing this new rule. Not winning...no jump.
Now Dan.. the reason why teams are usually more successful at home is because of a little thing called home field advantage and the energy that gives for the players as well as the intimidation factor for the other team.. why would we try and silence an energy that could potentially lift up the team and get them to spark a comeback? Should we stay quiet anytime the other team is ahead? Regardless of the quarter or difference in score? Maybe all 80,000 plus should be quiet until we are ahead just so we look like we aren’t celebrating while being down.. cmon dan
Lol, yeah, just kill off one of the best traditions in all of football. Apparently teams can't come back to win. Jump around provides excitement and energy to the crowd and to the field.
As a 60 yr old 5-9 200 NG, after that speech Coach Fickle, put me in coach. I'd run through a brick wall for you!!!
My instinct tells me that this is the guy who can bring our program to the next level. Go Badgers!!
So pumped for coach Fickell era! On Wisconsin!
Amazing hire. FIckell is one hell of a coach
On Wisconsin! Welcome coach Fickell! We believe you have made a great decision
Congratulations to my alma mater on a great hire! Welcome to Madison, Coach Fickell and family! #Badgers
Great hire from a Husker fan! I think the big ten west got better this past weekend with Fickell and Rhule!

He’s paid his dues. Congratulations Bra….
Wisconsin is relevant again. U of C was a very good program. I feel sorry for U of C.
Best wishes Coach!
i cant tell if Amy and the kids are happy or sad.
As a Cincinnati alum I'm PISSED

“Change is inevitable. Growth is optional.”
did you notice he forgot to pack socks.
I LOVE watching both NEBRASKA and wisco change out coaches like CHANGING UNDER WEAR!
18:15 Actual Fickell presser starts
Welcome Coach Fickell!
What is gonna happen with Jim Leonard?
Like the way he looked at the team when he talked about what is going to happen.
Moving on up from 100k per week to 150k per week... nice raise in pay for Luke...
Time to WIN
Give big applause for Leonhard, yeah right.
She meant to say, you failed and don’t let the door hit you on your way out.
Great coach and amazing hire!

Wisconsin hasn't been as good since Bielema left
All those seasons sucked
