Welcome to the Andy Sable Show presented by Sling.

We've got a special edition right now.

We did one when they fired Paul Chris at Wisconsin, so it's only fair that we do one when they hire Luke Fickle at Wisconsin.

Ari, this is a really good hire.

This is a surprising hire because I think a lot of us didn't have his name out there

just because we didn't know that he was movable at this point.

Yeah, I always thought that it would be a Big Ten East job that would come open.

That would get him to leave Cincinnati.

But Wisconsin, I guess, is the best Big Ten West job?

Is that fair?

But you're looking at it in terms of divisions, and divisions won't exist in two years.

No, I know.

I'm just saying, it's not even just about divisions.

I'm just saying the programs in the Big Ten East are the ones that would be most attractive to him, I would think.

If you power rank the jobs, Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, would Michigan State, would Michigan State be next or would Wisconsin be next?

For Luke Fickle?

Either one.

Well, we know what it is for Luke Fickle because he had a chance to have both.

So he thinks Wisconsin is better.

I wonder if he could go back in time if he would still think that

because Michigan State was in a pretty bad spot when they were courting him.

And it seems like they were in a doable place right now.
