They fired Paul Chryst midseason a couple of years ago and brought in the U of Cincinnati coach, Luke Fickell, to great fanfare. Fickell isn't doing any better than Chryst and is maybe doing worse, but they just announced that they are keeping him and the AD who fired Chryst for another year. Screwed up much, Badgers?
