When Wisconsin football head coach Luke Fickell decided to hire Phil Longo as the offensive coordinator, most thought the Badgers had hit a home run. The jury's still out, but year one left something to be desired considering the team’s sizable investment in the air raid disciple.
FootballScoop reported that Longo is earning $1.25 million annually, ranking him as the 13th highest-paid offensive coordinator in the nation.
Longo enters his second season with the Badgers and hopes to build on a challenging first year for the Wisconsin football program.
The offense underwent a major philosophical change and finished No. 69 nationally in total offense, averaging just 23.5 points per game, its lowest scoring output in nearly two decades.
