Comish Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Steven M. Sipple retweeted Steve Greenberg @SLGreenberg 4m4 minutes ago Andersen wasn't shy about admitting that, during interviews w/Alvarez, the main tenets of the program were dictated to him. That probably makes the most sense...... Maybe Barry sticks his nose in too deeply.....? Quote Link to comment
Comish Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 The swiftness of the hire probably makes any extra poaching of OS players less likely.......... Quote Link to comment

NoLongerN Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Wiscy really needs to look at themselves at this point and where they wanna be in the pecking order, regardless of their recent success. Two coaches in 2 years have now left for considerably lesser jobs in terms of perception in my opinion. You can only play with fire for so long. I think Wiscy will be just fine. They had Anderson for a couple of years and pretty much blasted us two years in a row. Quote Link to comment
HuskerMerc44 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Lol what a twist! Quote Link to comment
Drive1010 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 He got a raise this year from Wisconsin to bump his pay to $2.2M, and I have to think he was in line for more winning the division. I wonder how much OSU is shelling out here. Well the lifetime contract golden boy was only getting around 1.5M (lowest in the Pac-12) - so Anderson probably took a pay cut. OSU doesn't have money just laying around. They are great at one sport that doesn't make money (college baseball) Quote Link to comment
Drive1010 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Here's what I know.... Academic standards makes recruiting difdifficult in Wisconsin. Now couple that with the fact that there was a lot of speculation surrounding Beleima leaving because Wisconsin wasn't willing to give out fair pay raises to keep assistants. Wiscy football is going down the tube unless they make some serious changes to their philosophy in the admin. Yeah...have fun recruiting to Corvallis with the golden jewel of Nike money right next door. Oregon has the best facilities now in the nation - they are insane and insanely pampered...and OSU has high school stuff. Anderson will find out the hard way...like the Durham Bulls trying to sign players over the NY Yankees. Quote Link to comment
MichiganMan Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 saw this coming. after the beatdown in the CCG you knew the clock was ticking. even we didn't get schooled that bad by the buckeyes OSU > Michigan > Wisconsin Quote Link to comment
admo Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Since the breaking news about going to OSU, seriously, has Anderson hired his whole staff yet? I mean, it's been a few hours and the clock is ticking!!!1 Quote Link to comment

I mean, it's been a few hours and the clock is ticking!!!1 i hear he's already lost all of the recruits and they won't be able to field a team for the next 3 years. Quote Link to comment

Norhusker Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Interesting about this whole coaching carousel..... I wonder if this will be the beginning of the down fall of the Wisconsin program. That would be an ironic and unexpected twist. I hate the badgers, but want to beat them while they are strong. Quote Link to comment

That would be an ironic and unexpected twist. I hate the badgers, but want to beat them while they are strong. i always wondered if anderson was going to be able to keep it going. he seemed like a good coach. this is a pretty tough blow for the badgers. but they have to be pretty nervous about their future.

Danimal Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Can we reverse course on DC and bring Dave Aranda in? Ya the CCG went poorly but normally Wiscy plays quality defense. Quote Link to comment
WoodyHayes1951 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 If they aren't going to take Athletics seriously they should probably de-emphasize it like the B1G brethren, University of Chicago & Turdue Quote Link to comment
