Badgers head coach Luke Fickell is confident that following an unusual transitional phase, the University of Wisconsin football team’s tight end room has found the right blend of talent it needs on offense.

When Fickell and his staff took over the program, it was evident that the Badgers’ tight-end room comprised individuals with comparable abilities. That’s because Wisconsin football had a defined offensive identity and expectations for the position under Paul Chryst, and they recruited to it.

Those skill sets didn’t quite harmonize with the team’s evolving offensive scheme last season.
