Wisconsin is targeting Luke Fickell to become the school's next head coach according to a report from ESPN's Pete Thamel.
Thamel indicates that no deal has been signed, but the Badgers are pushing to have Fickell locked down within the next 48 hours.
Fickell started four seasons as a nose guard for Ohio State from 1993 to 1996, setting a school record with 50 consecutive starts. In 1999, he joined Ohio State's staff as a graduate assistant, and then, after spending a year coaching Akron's defensive line, returned to Columbus, serving 15 years as a Buckeye staffer, most notably 11 seasons as defensive coordinator and one year, 2011, as interim head coach.
He was hired by Cincinnati in 2017 and is 57–18 in five seasons with the Bearcats, winning three conference titles and after finishing the regular season 13-0 in 2021, earning the first College Football Playoff berth for a program outside of the FBS Power 5. If hired, Fickell would replace Paul Chryst, who was canned mid-season after a 2–3 start. Chryst, who was born in Madison and played quarterback for the Badgers, was 67–26 over eight seasons with the Badgers, winning the Big Ten West three times.
