In this week's episode of The Wisconsin Sportscast, Lucas and Oates remember Jerome Fishbain, who recently passed away. Fishbain, or Fish, probably knew more people in Wisconsin sports than just about anyone. He coached football all over the midwest, from Milwaukee to Racine to Minnesota to UW Madison. He stayed involved with the Badgers for years, and helped many of the team's coaches one time or another. Fish touched so many people across the entire football world. Lucas and Oates have plenty of stories to share about him, but at the end of the day he was a great guy who lived a great life.

Turning to Badger Men’s Basketball, who had a bit of a weird west coast trip last weekend. First they lose to Oregon, then they bounce back and beat Washington. Against Oregon, the Badgers just looked sluggish, and weren’t thinking clearly. The announcer called it correctly during the game: Wisconsin is a team with a very high ceiling, but also a very low floor. When they play well, they can take on almost any team out there. But then they go and lose by double digits to Oregon, who is not a particularly great team this year. All we can hope is that they keep up the energy they had against Washington throughout the rest of the year.

The Badgers take on Maryland Wednesday night for senior night in the Kohl Center. Among the seniors being honored are Nick Boyd, Andrew Rohde, Isaac Gard, and of course Braeden Carrington. Carrington is once again showing that he is part of the glue of this Badgers team, even breaking a Wisconsin record by hitting nine three-point shots on 15 attempts against Washington. When he gets into a rhythm, distance doesn’t seem to matter quite as much. Carrington should have some good confidence going into Wednesday night. They’ll need it; the Badgers have lost four of their last five senior nights…
