Yea, I just think that's the only one. Assuming he does well here and they still want him. He didn't just go there. He was born and raised in State College. Quote Link to comment
Red Five Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I know nothing but… A) I’m guessing Trev talked to Fickell and there was mutual interest. Fickell’s name came up a lot locally and nationally the last week or 2 of the search. Now, what we don’t know is if Trev told Fickell “no” or Fickell told Trev “no”. B) I find it hard to believe Wisky will only pay Fickell $6M. He was making $5M at Cincy and I’m sure they could have matched that. It has to be more than that. If not he really wanted to leave Cincy. And he needs to fire his agent. C) Rhule and Fickell are both Grade A hires imo. I’m kinda pissed Wisky got him. Leonard’s game management (vs us and MN) left a lot to be desired. But kudos to the Wisky AD for taking a swing. 3 Quote Link to comment

I’m shocked that Wisconsin was able to hire Fickell, but I agree it was a heck of a hire to try and take Wisconsin to the next level. It may not work out, but I think there was a ceiling with Chryst/Leohnard. Quote Link to comment

Red Five Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Tech seemed like a logical job for Chadwell or Deion, but they’re going in a different direction 2 Quote Link to comment

Scarlet Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Buckeye heads exploding over this moreso because not one Buckeye tried to stop it than the actual planting of the flag. They're pissed at Day for supposedly creating a soft culture. Quote Link to comment
