On November eighth, Wisconsin Badgers Athletic Director Chris McIntosh announced head coach Luke Fickells return for the 2026 season, ending speculation about his future. Despite a challenging start with a 2-6 record and a ten-game losing streak in the Big Ten, McIntoshs confidence in Fickell led to this decision. Fickells tenure has been tough, with a 15-19 overall record and no major victories. Quarterback injuries have plagued the team, impacting performance. The decision to retain Fickell is also tied to financial considerations, as firing him would cost over $25 million. This move aims to retain talent and build for the future, but significant improvements in player development and in-game decisions are needed to regain fan confidence.The Daily News Now! - Every city.
