[QUOTE="Voyageur, post: 982955, member: 17953"] Fickell brings a new culture, and recruiting philosophy, to the Badgers. As much as I like Leonhard, and hail from his neck of the woods myself, I realize that his skills as a coach are excellent, but I'm not so positive on how much he could do recruiting, outside of the home territory. What Fickell brings is a new direction, and new way of recruiting, and an eye for developing a high powered offense, that might possibly, in the future, challenge Ohio State and Michigan at times. Although constantly good, under Chryst, they never reached for the brass ring, always settling to be the bridesmaid to the power house. Fickell won't find that acceptable. He'll go all in, to make runs. Fickell started things out well, by visiting in-state high schools, and coaches. He's showing he's investing in them, and their product, but he's going far beyond that, whcih Nick Evers shows. You don't pull kids out of the Oklahoma/Dallas area, unless you've got the chops to show a kid you're ready to invest in him, and he has a shot at reaching the next level in football. Obviously, Evers sees it, and has bought in. Wisconsin has a small cadre of decent receivers, but we can expect some help coming through the portal, and in signings before next season. A lot of kids are going to want to join in, on this ride. We could see a couple of TEs as well, and as far as our running game, that's not going to skip a beat. It will be as potent as ever, and Nick's foot speed is going to create even more opportunities. I saw this kid play twice in high school. Take my word for it. He is the real deal. His foot speed is going to leave a lot of Big 10 defenders in the dust. On defense? I don't think we'll skip a beat to be honest. I think we have one of the better defensive coordinators, and their staff will be recruiting as heavily as they do on offense. Enjoy the ride. It's going to be exciting. Count on it. You won't be disappointed. [/QUOTE]
