Wisconsin Badgers Seek New GM Amidst Football Shakeup

On April 25, Wisconsin Badges just got hit with a front-office shake-up, leaving their

football general manager's spot wide open.

Last week, Athletic Director Chris McIntosh bounced to a gig at the Big Ten, so Marcus

Sedbury stepped up as interim athletic director.

That means the football program needs a new GM fast to keep things rolling.

Sedbury is no stranger to the operation.

He's been Deputy Athletic Director, Chief Operating Officer, and held the General Manager

role for all love.

Wisconsin Athletics, including football, his promotion creates this gap right when the

team's gearing up for key moves.

Head Coach Luke Fickle says they're wrapping Spring Ball next week before diving deep into

the search.

He pointed out the timing works out, since there's no transfer portal chaos right now,

but recruiting never stops, so they got to lock in decision soon.

To stay competitive.

Sedbury wrote to fans promising to team up with Fickle on picking the next GM, aiming

to have someone in place by late May when official visits kick off.

That timeline keeps the momentum going without missing a beat.

With spring practice ending and summer recruits on deck, the badges are pushing to fill

this role quick and steady the ship for what's next.
