UW targeting Fickell
- Thread starter NebChicago
- Start date
If OSU fires Day for going 12-1 or 11-2, they deserve to be irrelevant for the next 2 decades.
No they don’t
Should’ve never hired him
Scumbag urban forced their hand and their AD is a doormat
Winners win, losers get shitcanned
What record do you think a random msg board person could put up at Ohio St? No ******* way I'm losing to Toledo or Northwestern.
So next year there's a chance we face Fickell at Wisconsin and Deion Sanders at Colorado?
That’s what’s makes CFB fun. Let’s go!!
As hard as it is to believe right now. Nebraska is a better job than Wisconsin. Wisconsin is way behind in NIL, facilities, and support staff, and they have much higher academic standards for recruits. If Trev wanted Fickell he could've gotten him. I really believe Rhule was Trev's guy all along.
That screams a candidate that is not nearly as hot as some on here would believe. While I would be extremely happy with him he did fail miserably at Ohio St his one year.
Many Gen Z and millenials on here are too young to remember when nobody wanted to face NU and T.O because we would stomp a mudhole in them and walk it dry. That's what we haven't had in 25 years. You don't fear any other programs and coaches. They fear you!! Need to get that attitude and culture back!! GBR!!

so incredibly dumb
he built a team that would've beaten ohiost (and every other b1g team) last year
Judging Fickell on the one year he was interim HC at OSU is like definitively blaming Mickey for the dumpster fire that he was handed this year.
been to busy being pass happy practicing flag football the last 20 years..
these youngin's don't understand smashmouth football
Another way to look at this is that both UW and NU wanted Rhule, and NU was willing to go longer and higher, thus winning a bidding war. Fickell was the consolation prize.
Of course, I have no way of knowing this and completely made that up. I am certain that Fickell was contacted about the NU job. Either he was not interested (certainly possible), or NU cooled on him (also possible).
The difference between contract length and dollars is definitely interesting.

Let's hope Wisconsin does NOT get him. He was my preferred choice for Nebraska and we certainly don't need him now competing against us at Wisconsin.

a good way to get that started is to hire the toughest guy on the planet to run your program not a spare tire with stubble & a high-pitched voice who looks like he'd get run up the flag pole by his whitey tighties every day in middle school
Well if anything this season could be a big swing for the Big 10 west. Upgrade coaches and try and close the gap to the East. And yes I know divisions are going away. But this conference needs and infusion of better coaches. Just hope Rhule proves that he fits that bill.
he is nearly 40 games over .500 in his head coaching career despite that 6-6 year at ohio state
meanwhile many a homer are desperately scrambling to reason away our new coach's career college record (year zero! took over dumpster fire! moved up the ladder too quick!) & NFL record (different game! control freaks work better in college!)
like I said - what a joke
Dude. T.O wasn't the toughest guy on the planet. McBride and Tenooir were. Hire great assistants and delegate. Not drinking buddies, brothers and ***** chasers.
you don't think TO was and still is intimidating as hell?
you are entitled to all the incorrect opinions you'd like to spew. I and my correct ones will be here waiting.
I'll get behind the hire eventually but Fickell was the better choice. If he said no you go back and make him tell you no. This better work out
He made the playoffs a year ago and is 53-10 over the last 5 years. This would be a grand slam hire for Wisconsin
anyone who disagrees with this will require lots of mental gymnastics in order to do so
Ok. I'm looking forward to it. You just gonna piss and moan every step of the way?
Yea, its Wisconsin. My point is if he's signing for 6 million he's not nearly the hot commodity some on here think.
Listen King Kong or Top Gun or Rambo. I know you're an emotional poster. I also know you've been banned multiple times for saying some dumb ****. I seem to recall a few crazy ones against Adrian. Maybe scale it back a bit before you have to find another new screen name again.
they were infinitely more competitive in their playoff game than the b1g champs
"small boy football"
you, sir, are clueless
