GET ME REWRITE: UW-Madison athletic director Chris McIntosh vows to throw good money after bad at flailing football program

 

Headline:  Wisconsin State Journal, 10/21/2025

Colton Bartholomew reports:

University of Wisconsin athletic director Chris McIntosh again put his support behind football coach Luke Fickell on Monday and vowed increased investment in the program. 

In a letter sent via email to fans Monday morning, McIntosh said the football team hasn’t performed to the department’s expectations and while that’s frustrating, he believes in Fickell’s plan for the program.

In its four B10 contests so far this season, Wisconsin has scored just 20 points.
