It is Anderson and he is bringing his staff. Good choice here. Guy has good experience and fits what BA said.

Every sign pointed to Tucker until this Anderson news broke this evening. Now the UW sources are being reported as Anderson is going to be the coach.

The University of Wisconsin is set to hire Utah State's Gary Andersen as the Badgers' next football coach.

A source close to the football program told the State Journal on Tuesday night it is a done deal: Andersen is UW athletic director Barry Alvarez's choice to succeed Bret Bielema, who left to become the head coach at Arkansas.

I wanted Tucker but I like Andersen a lot too, think hes a damn good coach and a hell of a motivator and will have great success at Wisconsin.

Bo Ryan's offense is officially dead and has been figured out by the B1G. The only way he can continue to coach it is if he significantly upgrades the players.-George2k5

Do not like this hire at all. I hope I'm wrong, but this doesn't look good.

I think almost everyone will be happy with this hire if true. This coach appears to be the real deal and potentially a big improvement over Biff: mature, proven leader, strong staff (very impressive staff at USU), strong recruiter and a passionate and polished speaker.

@lanceallan: 2 sources say Barry Alvarez interviewed Gary Andersen Monday. Alvarez offered the job to him late today, Andersen accepted.#Badgers

All signs pointed to a head coach getting hired with his own staff. That is why it was Tucker. Tucker will be unemployed in 2 weeks though, maybe DC?

Wrong. Not everyone will be happy. Not at all.

USU's DC Dave Aranda turned down DC offers from Cal and Texas Tech recently - had to know this day was coming.  I'm guessing he's the new DC at Wisconsin.

RE: Badgers set to hire Gary Andersen 


Well, that is your choice Bacchus.  I think you will be in the minority.  And I am certainly not the easiest critic to please either but I can see nothing here that points to anything but more success for both Andersen and Wisconsin.  Solid hire if true.

What don't you like about it?  The recruiting links?

Re: Badgers set to hire Gary Andersen 


I found the following interesting tidbit from his old bio from his days at Utah.

"Andersen is also considered one of the best recruiters in the nation. He was named as the nation's No. 1 non-BCS recruiter in 2005 by **********. He was cited as a ********** Top 10 non-BCS recruiter in 2008."

Who knew. Fwiw ******* is R I V A L S.
