Wisconsin reportedly hiring UNC’s Phil Longo as new offensive coordinator

Head coach Luke Fickell has narrowed in on his offensive coordinator, as Bruce Feldman of Fox Sports reported that Wisconsin is hiring UNC offensive coordinator Phil Longo as their next man at the position.

SOURCE: Phil Longo is leaving UNC to go to Wisconsin to become the Badgers OC. He had a prolific offense in Chapel Hill and helped develop Drake Maye into a star this year. He's had a strong relationship with Luke Fickell for awhile and he interviewed for the Cincy OC before.

Longo, who has served as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach since 2019 for the Tar Heels, now takes over Bobby Engram’s role, who was a first-year coordinator and play-caller for the Badgers this year.
