Chris McIntosh‘s five-year tenure as Wisconsin’s athletic director officially came to a close Monday, April 13, as McIntosh leaves for a new role in the Big Ten office as deputy commissioner for strategy.
McIntosh’s coaching hires included Luke Fickell for football, Mike Hastings for men’s hockey and Robin Pingeton for women’s basketball. Fickell has a 17-21 overall record and led the Badgers to their first back-to-back losing seasons since the early 1990s. Hastings recently took the Badgers to the Frozen Four before losing to Denver in the national championship, and Pingeton helped UW reach the WBIT semifinals in her first season.
