TFD: Barry Alvarez isn't interested in your fancy search committees

Good times.

December 6, 2012 at 11:23PM

Former Badgers football coach Barry Alvarez, now the AD (and acting coach in the Rose Bowl), was asked if he would use a search committee in the quest to find a permanent new head coach to replace Bret Bielema:

"I won't use a search committee," Alvarez said Thursday. "Most search committees use me."

Boom.

Also, mark this: Alvarez is going to end up coaching the Badgers in 2013.
