I think this kid has a shot. Oak Creek coaches love him and think he's just scratching the surface.

Where do Badgers land in the draft

IF Allen declares, I see him as a 3rd or 4th rd pick. He's a boom or bust type guy. I see Mordecai as maybe a sneaky 3rd but it all depends on the rest of the year. Mellusi might be a 5th or 6th imo. If Wohler declared, I think that he might be a 1st. Maeama could be a 3rd or 4th (lacks the ideal size). If Nelson declares, he's a camp tryout as of now. I can see Blaylock getting a camp invite. Dike might warrant a 5th or so. Rucci would get a camp invite because of his blocking. Who am I missing? Maitre? nope. Mullens, unless he comes back and is a dominating force, I see nothing besides a camp invite. I'm curious as to what you all think!

Fickell Post Game Speech

After watching on Twitter/X I think I can see what the big problem is with our team. This is a guess, but I think you can see where I’m going with this. The Badgers culture seems to have morphed into a very stressed environment. Yes, some kids were having fun, but for sure not all, and definitely not most. As pressure increased on Chryst it’s likely that some amount was passed on to the team. That, coupled with losing more often lately has set our culture back. We have to relearn how to be a winning football team (9-11 games a year, hopefully more now). Fickell is dealing with the balance of pushing them hard but making it fun. There’s a very fine line. I think Fick honestly believes we can be a great team once we start having more fun and letting go. Whether that happens this year, next year, or 3 years from now is another is anyone’s guess. But, I firmly believe it will happen, and be glorious
