Ryan wanted his guy to have the head coach job, obviously. I can understand why you want your assistant to have a coaching job, but your job is to coach basketball, not to force the school into hiring someone in particular as their next head coach. Bo could have easily stayed on through the season and surely Gard would have remained on the staff this season and would have been in an even better position emotionally to be a head coach next year. But if Bo had finished this season, they may have never hired Gard as head coach if they were forced to make an evaluation with Gard having no HC experience. I can see the sentimental reasons for keeping Gard as head coach, but I don't think it's fair to the other candidates out there to just hand Gard the job - there are other qualified coaches and surely some that have more head coach experience (i.e., a better resume than Gard in that sense) that would be willing to take the job. I may be in the minority, but I think Bo is overstepping his bounds here in trying to control who Wisconsin hires as their next head coach. Gard deserves the interim head coach job, and that alone.

I think you are pretty spot on here. Unless Gard absolutely blows everyone away, I expect Alvarez to conduct a comprehensive search in the offseason.

Woman who had affair with Bo Ryan suing Wisconsin officials

A woman who was involved in an extramarital affair with former Wisconsin men's basketball coach Bo Ryan has filed a federal lawsuit against several top university officials, alleging defamation, invasion of privacy and deprivation of due process.

Details of the lawsuit were first reported by the Wisconsin State Journal.

The complaint, filed in federal court in Madison on Wednesday by Robin Van Ert, claims that the university conducted a "sham" investigation after Van Ert brought them allegations that Ryan misused school resources during their affair, from 2009 until 2014.

Van Ert also claims the officials violated her privacy rights by publicly revealing her identity when they released a 2015 email in which Van Ert detailed the affair and accused Ryan of misconduct.
