Wisconsin Hires Gary Andersen

[BigAppleBadger]

great hire for Wisconsin.

Anderson somehow made Utah State good. He should be able to maintain Wisconsin's success, though they may not be in as many Rose Bowls with Ohio State on the rise

I would think that "not as many Rose Bowls" is the only direction there is after going to 3 straight.

Anyway, my big question is whether he can recruit in-state (keep it locked down), across the better recruiting areas of the Midwest (especially OH/PA) and in Florida/Texas.

Also, there is no way Wisconsin will go to a spread offense. Remember that Matt Canada ran a spread at NIU too, so it's more about the type of players they can get.

a lot of these mid major guys are getting big big time BCS jobs. We will see which ones continue their success at the next level.

All you need to know about Coach Andersen can be seen in the way his players reacted to his departure. His players love the guy.

Bill Busch will probably be the worst position coach you guys have ever had..


.. and the best recruiter you've ever had..


really wish he was on the Husker staff

@DavidLieberman we didn't need him to win. We can be great without him.

Well Badgers, at the very least he seems entertaining.

Anderson called each Utah St player individually to inform them he was leaving.

Sounds like a stand up guy. Time will only tell if its a good hire.
