Barry Alvarez to coach Wisconsin in Outback Bowl vs. Auburn - Bucky's 5th Quarter I'm probably reading too much into this, but I think it pretty much means that Dave Aranda isn't a candidate for the job. I hope everyone will finally believe this. But, admission standards are a big time...

Bottom line, Alvarez has to find someone who loves UW and wants to be here. A lot of people will say Paul Chryst, but I'd also gauge the interesting of someone like Dave Doeren.

Deonte Burton, John Dawson leaving Marquette - JSOnline Interesting. Not a Marquette fan. It's not an issue of minutes not being available, obviously. They go from not a lot of depth to absolutely none of it.

Paul Bunyan Axe tradition loses luster with new policy - ESPN Meh. Not really a fan of this new policy, but it is what it is. I understand trying to avoid any kind of conflict. But, I view what happened last year in Minny as more of a one time freak incident.

I'm taking part in a Mock Draft with some people. It's not completely done yet, but I just wanted to get the thoughts of fellow Packer fans on how I've done so far. 1st round. I was able to trade down to the 30th pick. I took Jimmie Ward- S, Northern Illinois 2nd round. I traded up and had to...

Bucks sold to hedge fund partners for record $550 million - CBSSports.com Herb Kohl sold the Bucks to Marc Lasry and Wes Edens, a couple of hedge fund billionaires. They're at least making attempts to build a new arena, the Bradley Center is total crap. Herb Kohl put in $100 million and...

I've watched Baylor a few times this year. I doubt they'll play the way they did against Creighton. Is their a Big Ten team that they're comparable to?

Charges filed against Wisconsin commit Dominic Cizauskas [UPDATED] - Bucky's 5th Quarter He isn't deserving of a football schollie. Absolutely 0 sympathy for this kid, he put himself in this situation

Ex-Vikings defensive tackle Letroy Guion joins the Packers - baltimoresun.com Interesting signing. The Packers come to terms with former Viking Letroy Guion. I kind of like it. He's a young defensive linemen, and it's just for a year. Interesting how this plays into Johnny Jolly's potential...

I know there's been a lot of talk about how coaches handle themselves on the sidelines. One of the things that's always bothered me, whenever a coach steps out on the floor during game play, why does no one ever teach their players to bump into the coach on the floor and force the refs to call...

Badgers football: Hiring of Thomas Brown as UW running backs coach reaffirms importance of Georgia recruiting base : Sports Looks like a nice hire. He's a young guy, should bring a lot of energy. He has southeastern connections, which sounds like an emphasis from Coach A.

Where is Marco Estrada's best value to the Brewers? Is he best used as a starter, or out of the bullpen? I'm curious what people think.

Just thought I'd make note of this. The Badger hockey team swept Minnesota out of the Kohl Center Thursday and Friday. Big wins over the number 1 team in the nation. Just thought it should be noted.

What happened to Cory Clement? In the bowl game he got one carry all game and he was on the field again? All season I kept wondering if he'd play more than just garbage time. I get that both Melvin Gordon and James White are very talented. The coaches didn't have to show the wildcat look...

Let's say the Nick Saban to Texas rumors are true. Where does Kirby Smart go? Is he even considered for the Bama head coaching job? I'd say no, just because Alabama can and should hire someone with head coaching experience. Would smart follow Saban to Texas? Or does he get a mid major head...

I'm a bit surprised no one else has brought this up yet, but he was very candid about the Detroit Lions Tuesday afternoon. He wasn't saying anything that other people haven't already thought about the Lions, but I'm a bit surprised he said all that he did and was that blunt. The seed has been...

So, how do you all grade out Scott Tolzien? Can this team win with him at the helm? Personally, I can't give Tolzien any higher than a a C+. He does some really nice things, but he also makes quite a few mistakes. His mistakes are all tied to a lack of experience, but his margin of error is...

With Aaron's injury, I don't think we can expect the Packers offense to be as dominant as it could be. With that said, my focus now moves to our defense. Aaron's injury had nothing to do with the poor play of the defense. At this point tackling technique drills aren't going to happen, but I'd...

Who's excited about basketball season? I know we're in the midst of a very good football season. But, the basketball officially tips off Friday. Sam Dekker is back after a pretty good freshman year. Josh Gasser is getting better after an ACL. A really good freshman class is entering the...

What early season tournament are you most looking forward to watching? Lots of great basketball is going to be played. I think the Old Spice Classic is going to be solid. I'm excited to see Oklahoma State. The Battle 4 Atlantis is going to be pretty good. I like the Wooden Legacy as well...

So, I just thought I'd make a quick one stop shop for recruiting info. Feel free to use this to post updates about other Badger sports as well. I'm very excited about this football recruiting class. Here's a list of the commits: Jaden Gault- OT Monona, WI DJ Gillins- QB Jacksonville, FL...

I saw this conversation started up on another Badger message board. I thought it was a fairly interesting conversation. What do you feel comfortable saying we know about this Badger football team? I don't think this is a truly great team, gowever, I do think that there's a very good almost elite...

Hey, Nebraska fans. I'd like to take this time to apologize to you all. Earlier I had stated Nebraska will beat Minnesota, "by at least 17" I feel like my prediction cursed Nebraska. If I wasn't a Wisconsin fan, I would probably have aligned myself with Nebraska. I, again, sincerely...

Jermichael Finley of Green Bay Packers in ICU after injury - ESPN First off, there's a little review of his situation. On an unimportant second note, what do we do now? Is DJ Williams still available? I'm really interested to see where to pass game goes from here.

I've seen a lot of talk about wanting to put more offense in college basketball. One of the suggestions was reducing the shot clock, and I'd be okay with a 30 second shot clock. But, that solution just increases the number of possessions per game. The new on ball hand check rule is nice, but...
