I left Whistling Straits late Sunday night thinking the powers that be would be foolish not to bring the Ryder Cup back to that wonderful venue.

If you could only name one ... What is the biggest problem with the Badgers offense?

To me, I think a better question is what is the one thing that can be done to make things better. We know what the biggest problem is, but that can't be fixed overnight. What is the first step in fixing the whole?

Jim, as of today, what is the highest draft pick the Packers could get for Jordan Love? It is apparent to me that to keep Rodgers, the Packers are going to have to part ways with their QB prospect. Which they should do IMO.

What is holding the OL back? UW has a history of solid line play. Sounds like UW has tried a lot of different groups this year so far. Is it lack of talent? Lack of experience? Lack of cohesion among the group (since they have tried a lot of different groupings)?

Do you think Coaches feel the pressure of the offense non-productivity and the pressure to try a different Quarterback? If you desired a change in QB, who would you select? How about the the Freshman QB?

Do you think Wisconsin would ever go back to the transfer market for a QB, especially heading into next year if Graham doesn't improve?

How can the Badger Oline have any continuity if they are rotating players? Is this a red flag like when have you have 2 starting quarterbacks you really have none?

Jim- does the fact that Chryst doesn’t make a change at QB mean that the alternatives aren’t any better? By not benching Mertz seems to endorse bad play by the coaches. Something needs to change on offense.

How much of Mertz's issues with footwork/ballhandling can be traced back to being pure shotgun in HS? Almost always had clean pocket/feet.

Setting aside this year's issues and associated questions, do you know if there has been any discussion regarding Leonard's future in UW's succession planning?
— GT Schutz (@GTSchutz) September 27, 2021
In 2016, ND went 4-8 and Brian Kelly did some soul searching and made some major changes to his coaching staff. Should Chryst be thinking similarly? Or do you think Chryst is a "stay the course" coach?

Why do you think Berger is not starting and barely playing?

How/why is UW a favorite vs UM, and how much of my kid’s college fund should I wager on the wolverines?
— brUK (@bruck1464) September 27, 2021
What is the deal with Berger barely/not playing? He was clearly our top back last year and there is no evidence that either of the others ahead of him in rotation are better.
— Chris Davis (@cdavis20000) September 27, 2021
Jim: with the consistent, high level of play from our defense and the consistent, low level of play from all other aspects of the game (offense, special teams, recruiting)…when do we promote Coach Leonhard to HC? Fear we lose the only positive aspect of the program if we don’t.

Does the team still believe that all their preseason goals are achievable?
— Jason (@JasonGeldon) September 28, 2021
Barry Alvarez had some forgettable starts during his 16 yr. tenure. The blowout by Colorado in the opener back in the mid-90’s. Another blowout by Syracuse at the Meadowlands by Donovan McNabb’s Syracuse team in 1997. With 9 games left, what needs to happen to turn this around?
— Jeff Ostach (@jeff_ostach) September 27, 2021
Where do we go from here on offense? Scheme adjustment or qb rotation?
