Sources: Wisconsin, Luke Fickell find new wide receivers coach (Jeff Grimes)

Luke Fickell is putting the pieces in place for his new Wisconsin offensive staff moving into the 2025 season.

After replacing Phil Longo with Jeff Grimes as Badgers offensive coordinator and elevating former Ohio State quarterback Kenny Guiton to coach quarterbacks, sources tell FootballScoop that Fickell has his next wide receivers coach.

Jordan Reid, a former Ohio University standout who spent the past two seasons on Lance Taylor's Western Michigan staffs, has accepted the wide receivers post at Wisconsin, multiple sources told FootballScoop.

With this being a live recruiting period, Reid already is on the ground and working at Wisconsin, sources added.

Fickell is entering a pivotal Year 3 in Madison after going a game below .500, 12-13, in his first two full seasons at the helm of the Badgers program.

Wisconsin, which opens its 2025 season at home against Miami (Ohio) and also has a first-month road trip to Alabama, has notable Big Ten Conference clashes in the fall against Michigan, Iowa, Ohio State, Oregon, Washington and Indiana, among others.
