ESPN now believes Wisconsin head football coach Luke Fickell has moved off the hot seat, according to a report from Badgers Wire. The assessment comes as the Badgers program shows signs of stabilization under Fickell's leadership.

The development marks a shift in perception for the Wisconsin coach, who faced scrutiny during earlier portions of his tenure. Fickell, who previously built a successful program at Cincinnati, took over the Badgers ahead of the 2023 season.
