Wisconsin announced Wednesday that head coach Luke Fickell was given a one-year contract extension through 2032.

Financial terms were not disclosed by the school. Fickell’s previous deal kept him with the program through 2031. He made $7.7 million this past season, fifth-highest in the Big Ten.

Fickell, 51, just completed his second season in Madison and is coming off a 5-7 campaign in 2024. He led the Badgers to a bowl after the 2023 season, in which the Badgers went 7-6.

Fickell replaced Paul Chryst as head coach in November 2022.

Fickell is 76-38 as head coach at Ohio State (2011), Cincinnati (2017-22) and Wisconsin.
