Supposedly, there was 2 options after losing to Illinois.  Cut his pinky finger off, or fire him.  He kept his finger and the money.  

Wisconsin is bad, but they sure didn't look "fire a guy after five games" bad, especially considering his (previous) record.

I'm certainly not complaining about it. I'm kinda hoping maybe with Mickey getting us a nice win combined with this could be a sign of some kind of sliding doors moment where we ascend and they fall down.

I'm REALLY tired of losing to that program.

I think there was more going on than him being fired over one game.  He wasn’t recruiting like in the past and wasn’t really keeping up with the whole NIL issue.  The University was firing people and not replacing them.  When you read what many of the Wiscy fans have written about the firing many say it was about time.  But many also said it was like when we fired Solich but more said it reminded them of when Nebraska fired Bo. I was shocked to say the least.  It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
