It feels like it is. I think the best days are behind us.
UW had a great run with an identify of tough defense and elite running backs and the great fortune of a host of Wisconsin native players who were NFL caliber. Situated in the Big Ten West, UW was the class of the division and could rack up 9-10 win seasons.
Now it seems like the program has no identity. Haven’t had a good season in 5 years. The new Big Ten makes the UW schedules much harder, plus the non conference games against Bama. Trying to keep up in an NIL world while the money is going to a practice facility just to stay on par.
LF will probably be changing the OC and that will bring massive changes in the portal with new QBs and new schemes. The merry go round spins on. You end up just like all the mid tier teams in the power leagues. Just stuck in mediocrity with no way out.
