As all Badger fans know, current coach Luke Fickell has worn a vest at almost every game, no matter the weather. Early September games he is in a vest and t-shirt on the side lines. (Which makes no sense because its hot as hell.) See the tweet below for a visual reference of what I'm talking about.
I, like most Badger fans, will always add onto the (very long) list of reasons we don't care for Fickell, is his stupid vest. If you know me personally, I have been screaming since 2024 how crazy he looks in that vest.
When listening to Wednesday, July 29th episode of Pardon My Take, it was great to hear Big Cat ask if we will see the vest on the sideline this year. (Listen below)
Big Cat does point out that when the vest was covered at the end of last season we did win some games and become more competitive.
Fickell responds with "...I'm going to leave that to my daughter..." and then follows it up with "... I had not thought about it...". Well coach, its time to think about it because the fans are sick of it and it clearly is not helping win games.
Wondering what Fickell's record is at Wisconsin as head coach? I got you.

You may be wondering, "Pick6 Alyssa what do you want him to wear?" Thank you for asking, and I don't care as long as it isn't that stupid vest.
