I’ve heard a vocal faction of the Wisconsin Badgers fanbase expressing concern about Luke Fickell and the football program losing a number of assistant coaches this off-season.
While continuity is undoubtedly preferred for any program, assistant coaches will inevitably come and go and constantly pursue options that advance their respective careers, and rightfully so.
That’s not to say that the Badgers are absolved from criticism. There are plenty of scenarios where poor relationship management and bad hiring track records by a head coach lead to the downfall of football programs, but there’s no reason to believe that’s the case here.
