Throughout the University of Wisconsin’s 127-year history with a team on the gridiron, only 31 men can stake claim to head coaching duties. Former college athlete and head coach of the University of Cincinnati, Luke Fickell, inherits this title following the impromptu, in-season firing of Paul Chryst, who served as the team’s anchor for seven years.
Perhaps the most significant question looming around the team, though, revolves around the relationship between two of the most coveted positions on the turf — quarterback and wide receiver.
With roughly four months remaining until Wisconsin’s first home contest under Fickell, the Badgers have yet to announce the starting quarterback for the 2023-2024 season.
