@AdamMcCalvy Perkins will be back in Milwaukee within six weeks or sooner. They could consider trading Black if they are not going to play him.

Blake Perkins was optioned to Triple-A this morning along with Tyler Black and Logan Henderson. Cooper Pratt reassigned to MiLB camp. Not the news Perkins wanted after parts of the past 3 years with the Brewers. This appears to clear a path to Opening Day for Brandon Lockridge.

@ESPNMadison @yuenglingbeer Is it possible that the Badgers were overachieving this season? They had little depth and only two players they could count on for points. Not a lot of talent in the forecourt. They were only average defensively. Perhaps 24 wins was a good season for them. But yesterday hurts.

@AdamMcCalvy Well, he's an ace pitcher when healthy. Got to think management believes in him to have paid the money. Time will tell.

Opening Day isn’t the target for Brandon Woodruff. A healthy season is. He threw about 25 pitches in a sim game this morning.

@MikaelaShiffrin Mikaela displayed courage together with championship form in skiing to her gold medal. Needed the win today and she got it. Bravo!

Olympic Reflections Incoming⬇️ Over the past few days, some incredible things have happened…just to name a few: •I had a really productive slalom training session, working through some of the variables I found challenging during team combined (always learning 🥴) …cont. below

@NBCOlympics Outstanding! I knew she could do it. Looked solid and composed. Remarkable that she has won gold medals 12 years apart in this event.

Mikaela Shiffrin has a DOMINANT first run in the women's slalom!

@MikaelaShiffrin Take it one gate at a time. Have no concern for past failures. In sports every day is a new opportunity. Needless to say, discount the haters.

@MattNorlander In spite of the negative comments which are always there, she was having an excellent season until the ACL injury. Her second training run at Cortina several days ago went well. She pressed too hard today and paid the price.

The AP's Jacquelyn Martin has the photo that shows the split-second before Lindsey Vonn's crash: her right ski pole clips the gate at the crest of the jump, which flung her off balance and induced the crash.

@Brewers I have to say that this is the one deal I don't quite understand. Peralta and Woodruff would have been an imposing one/two punch. So what that it would have been Freddy's last season here. Did we really need the two guys we got?

From an iconic debut to eight historic seasons...we can’t thank you enough, Freddy 💙

@clarencehilljr Jim was a top ten DCoordinator at Wisconsin. Has done well at Denver. It would be great to see him come back home.

Jim Leonhard is a name to watch in Green Bay

@CFBPlayoff @IndianaFootball @IndianaUniv @bigten Mr. Heisman! Indiana reigns!

THAT’S WHY HE’S MR. HEISMAN 😤 📺ESPN

@mzenitz @chris_hummer @CBSSportsCFB @AllenTrieu @TheRealNickOsen @McNamara_247 @cooperpetagna Our best lineman goes and the article treats it as a celebration. The great Fickell replaces him immediately. My guess is Joe joins Bob Bostad at Indiana. Good move for the Wisconsin boy.

Wisconsin standout offensive guard Joe Brunner has entered the transfer portal, @chris_hummer and I have learned. Was a starter for the Badgers the last two seasons and was an All-Big Ten honorable mention selection this season.

@tntsports Outstanding! Many former and current skiers were critical of her comeback attempt, but she kept faith in herself. Looking forward to seeing her in the Olympics.

Lindsey Vonn takes a HUGE lead after a stunning downhill run in St Moritz! 🤩🇺🇸

@TransferPortal @glose_matt @PeteNakos @Evan_Flood Could have been used more. Strong, slashing runner with good speed.

Wisconsin RB Cade Yacamelli is entering the transfer portal, his rep @glose_matt tells @PeteNakos. The 6-foot, 215-pound RB has rushed for 571 career yards, averaging 5.3 yards per carry. on3.com/transfer-porta…

@MSU_Football @coachfitz51 Smart hire by Sparty. Fitz will do well in East Lansing.

A new era begins in East Lansing! Welcome home, Coach Fitzgerald!

@Hayesfawcett3 @on3 @Jibriel_conde @BadgerFootball @CoachFick @Evan_Flood This propaganda piece is laughable. Probably written by Macintosh. The problem of course is that this staff doesn't develop players. Money not the answer to Badger woes.

BREAKING: Grand Valley State transfer DL Jibriel Conde has Committed to Wisconsin, @on3 has learned The 6’5 280 DL totaled 30 Tackles, 2.5 Sacks, & 6.5 TFL this season He’s ranked as the No. 1 DL in the Portal (per On3) on3.com/transfer-porta…

@ZachHeilprin @DeceptiveSpeed Win the Axe! That is our bowl/ trophy game. Why play for a jar of mayo in North Carolina?

Talked about what it would take for a 5-7 Wisconsin team to make a bowl game. Mentioned this article (forbes.com/sites/erikbuch…) on the show. Its author, @DeceptiveSpeed, sent this along.

@TomOatesWSJ Freshman QB needs to start last three games. He can run the read option and is unafraid. Needs some pass patterns that are not too difficult for a new starter. This team has not been well coached on offense IMHO. Smith should have been playing. Defense has grown.

Thoughts from #Wisconsin’s upset of #23 Washington: The #Badgers continue to play their butts off for Luke Fickell. You can build a defense around freshman ILBs Cooper Catalano and Mason Posa. When your punter throws for as many yards (24) as your QBs, winning is not sustainable.

@BarstoolBigCat Super defensive effort all day. Rush game is getting there but why is it we can't pass? Program still has a long way to go but a real gutsy win.

THE BADGERS HAVE WON A BIG TEN FOOTBALL GAME!!! I’m all in on Fickell 2.0 as long as we never ever see the vest again. A lot of things have been said, a lot of losses have been had but today is a new day! #OnWisconsin

@jessetemple I can say with absolute certainty the Big Mac's comment about success being measured in various ways was made by the Morton administration in 1990. Donna Shalala flipped her lid, fired them all, hired Pat Richter who hired Barry Alvarez and the rest is history.

Athletic director Chris McIntosh was asked how he’ll determine what success looks like for Wisconsin football next season under Luke Fickell. The full video and story about McIntosh’s decision to retain Fickell can be found at Badger Connect: badgerconnect.com/wisconsin-athl…

@CFBONFOX This situation won't change until the fans stay home. Fickell is protected by Macintosh's ego, big money in Milwaukee, and a chancellor who is uninvolved. He was never as good as advertised. One good season in a mid major and he's touted as a guru? Mac just didn't like Leonhard.

Luke Fickell is set to return to Wisconsin in 2026, via multiple reports.
