Ep. 56 - Wisconsin Badgers QB Woes the Cause of Fickell's Failure? + Kelly Stouffer Joins!
It’s Pablo & Jim on The Jump Around! Today they ponder the question, would things be different if Fickell just had his starting QB the past three seasons? They also question, why exactly are you still watching the Badgers? What makes you want to turn on the TV and struggle through a Wisconsin football game? There's also some basketball discussion for the first time in a while as the sudden news of Kirk Penney's departure has the guys rattled. Finally, Riley takes the guys into the Twitter Portal involving some sports betting, underdogs, and Mr. Brightside before ESPN college football analyst and former Seattle Seahawks QB Kelly Stouffer joins the show!
