I'd probably quit too if I missed out on players like Henry and diamond in my own state

Once again MUScoop was right (or at least some in the know posters). I guess the rumors on this board were correct.

Two years ago, this really wouldn't have mattered much as we were going after different recruits a lot.  Now, with Wojo, I think this is a good thing for MU.

So UW has a one-year rent-a-coach situation going on right now? Ironic for a coach who disparages one-and-dones on national TV

Make the right hire and they'll be fine.  Hell they screwed up the first coach post Dick Bennett and they rebounded nicely.  No reason UW can't be a consistent winner.

Also interesting that Alvarez basically asked him to retire. A bold choice for an AD without a stellar history of coaching hires.

If you find the next Bo, sure. But what coach would want to step into that program with the lack of recruiting pipeline? Bo weaves straw into gold.

Again, a good coach can build a recruiting pipeline.  Look what Wojo did.

Bo's own tweet said Barry approached him to discuss his retirement. Is that an AD thing to do each year? Did Wojo get that question?

It sounds like  he was considering retiring immediately after the season and Barry talked him into waiting.

And a program with investment and recruiting pipeline is required to get a good coach. Bo Ryans don't exist after this one steps down.

Any coach with an actual market value outside of WI (not Gard), would be a Rich Rod situation at best. UW wouldn't pony up regardless.

For discussion's sake: why would an AD want that to be the case? If Barry already knows he's going to hire Gard, why have a lame duck coach for a year? A year with empty cupboards is perfect for a transition.

Because Barry like Bo and is going to allow him to retire on his own terms.  Whether or not that is smart or not can be discussed.  But Barry very much respects Bo.  Barry also doesn't want to piss off any donors.
