As Luke Fickell enters his second season at Wisconsin, there is another quarterback competition in front of the head coach. Braedyn Locke could be considered the returning guy, being a part of the program last season. Wisconsin also went and got Tyler Van Dyke out of the NCAA transfer portal, with those two battling. Assuming Van Dyke would win the job could be easy but Fickell recently confirmed no decision has been made. Fall camp is where he ultimately decides who takes the first snap of the season opener against Western Michigan. “There will be,” Fickell said about a competition. “There wa...

Wisconsin head coach Luke Fickell is a proponent of the expanded College Football Playoff coming this season. The CFP made the jump from four to 12 teams and could provide more possibilities for the postseason. For those who think it’s a bit like the NFL, well, in a way you’re right. It’s a layered conversation, but ultimately Fickell is on the side of positivity when it comes to an expanded playoff. “There’s a lot of different thoughts, to be honest with you,” Fickell said on The Jim Rome Show. “It rolls through your head. But I think, by what has happened, obviously, in the Big Ten and what ...

Wisconsin football should not be slept on this season, according to ESPN’s Greg McElroy. 2024 might be quite the year for Luke Fickell and the Badgers. While McElroy admitted he was a year early on the Wisconsin hype, this fall will be different. When looking at the tape and the personnel, Fickell might have something cooking in Madison. McElroy explained his stance on Wisconsin during Always College Football. “Because I know that last year coming into it, quarterback play was a question mark to an extent, it ended up being okay. I wouldn’t say it was bad. I wouldn’t say it was elite,” McElroy...

Jake Ferguson proved the Dallas Cowboys’ strategy right last season after the team parted ways with starting tight end Dalton Schultz. The team opted not to sign Dalton Schultz back on in free agency, and instead, counted on Ferguson to have a breakout season, which he did. Now, heading into his third season in the league, the Cowboys are once again hopeful that Ferguson can perform as one of the best tight ends in the NFL. “He had a good year last year, but can you do it again?” Cowboys tight ends coach Lunda Wells said during minicamp. “The legends and the great players do it consistently ov...

Steelers defensive tackle Keeanu Benton showed up at OTAs 10 pounds lighter than he was last season, his rookie year. But in the big picture, the coaches expect him to grow. Not in girth, but grow as in being a steady, if not spectacular defensive tackle inthe NFL. “Keeanu is big and athletic and strong,” said Steelers defensive coordinator Teryl Austin said. “The sky is the limit for that guy. I think the world of him. (And) I think he has a lot of room for growth. I expect him to really take a jump and really be a dominant player inside.” Steelers still have nose tackle Montravius Adams on r...

Year after year recruiting in college football has evolved and changed. Especially as of late with the rise of the transfer portal and name, image, and likeness adding new layers to a part of the game that was much simpler once upon a time. Blue-chip high school prospects are now being rewarded with funds before playing a single down of collegiate football. While college players are re-opening up their recruitment in the transfer portal and crowding up the recruiting marketplace. Getting recruited out of high school seems more difficult than ever, and with that in mind, Wisconsin head football...

Spring practice is the first time that early enrollees are able to work with their teams. It’s great experience for those freshmen, but as Wisconsin Badgers head coach Luke Fickell explained, it’s part of the nature of it to see them hit a wall. Fickell was happy with the growth he saw from those young players during camp, even though they did hit a wall along the way because of how they worked once they got to that point. “We saw a growth and we’ve seen them hit a wall,” Luke Fickell said. “I think that’s the nature of it, but I think that 11 of those guys were brand new. Seven or eight guys ...
