Seems to loyal. I don't know. He should actually transfer to MU lol

Ehhhh. I'd prefer a stud grad transfer guard.  Already very crowded front court.

Maybe, why not.  May want to win, has no chance next year at Wisky.  Same players, no top recruits. Can earn money somewhere.

Louisville?

With every loss I can feel it coming closer....

 So many heads would explode the state would covered in about 3 inches of Badger brains

Ok not MU but he was a redshirt and he is in his fourth academic year.

Talent like his on a very bad team ... I assume he went to school and can graduate this spring ... I smell grad transfer!

Do people actually see Happ leaving Wisconsin

I didn't at the beginning of the year but pretty much every game I have been more and more convinced that he will. They are on a downward spiral and he is putting up worse numbers despite being featured more. His teammates are making him worse. I think if he has any prayer of being drafted (a stretch at this point), he needs to go to a winning team and put up the same kind of dominate numbers.

They aren't going to get rid of him after this year.  But next year?  They will push for Tony Bennett.

Their fans will push for him, but they won't get him. That ship sailed 17 years ago.

So, Gard continues another couple of years, fails to recruit well, and the program continues to spiral.    First of all, YAY!    But then, when they fire him, the job the new coach will have .    And he will NOT be a big name coach.    He will be a flavor-of-the-month-my-mid-major-with-all-seniors-won-a-tourney-game type.   Think Groce at Illinois.   The new guy will have to come in and try to recruit to Wisconsin while fighting against the history and culture of Wisconsin.     Seriously, the next decade could be like the best sitcom-reality show ever.

Maybe Bo secretly hated Gard and thus really wanted him to take his place at that hellhole.

We need to insist to the powers-that-be at Wisconsin that they need to retain Gard the requisite "5 years to judge"

Two years ago I would have agreed with you.  I'm not so sure now.

Based on what? Are you saying now it's more likely he would leave UVA for Becky specifically or leave for any good opportunity?

I love the idea of Happ coming to MU, won't happen though. Can you just imagine how many Bucky fan fans would spontaneously combust. So much fun to consider the move but it ultimately will not happen. Why you ask? He couldn't get into MU. Haha Bucky..

I'm not sure he is committed long term to UVa based on what I have heard.  (Which is all I have heard.)

He'd be wise to let Gard fall on his face the next two seasons and come in and scoop up a low expectations, high loyalty fanbase.

Bennett does very well in building. Not sure he can maintain. Similar to a Crean in that regard.

Maybe, why not.  May want to win, has no chance next year at Wisky.  Same players, no top recruits.  Can earn money somewhere.  If he was on MU right now, they
might be undefeated.  You could never double him with all the shooters MU has.  Always can dream,  I can see him exploring all options for next year.  Bo really made
a mistake not taking Sam,  Sam and Joey with Happ would have been a pretty good frontline, then maybe Herro could have been the 2 guard.  Interesting team that
would have been.

I seriously don't get how people consistently talk about Sam being 100% a badger if Bo recruited him. Sure it made the MU choice much easier for him, but I don't remember the vibe from Sam being "if Wisconsin offers I'm definitely committing."

Huh?  What's the timeframe for someone who has "maintained?"  Seems like he's maintained at UVA just fine to me.

Bennett to Duke when K retires...
Sounds like a win-win for us.  Keeps Bennett away from Madison, and keeps Wojo away from Durham.

Bennett is a really good coach, but Duke likely wouldn't want to bring his grind it out style of play to their program when that would be the most appealing job opening in a long time.

Crean to Mad-town.

That way it's easy to focus our energies.

In fact I like the guy... he knows how to recruit nationally for a mid-western school, has the Big 10 experience, brings instant reputation for achievement, and he seems to have grown up a LOT from when he left us.  Bucky could do LOTS worse.

Bo would need a lot of massages to cope with Crean coaching at UW.

That's a few years old.  He isn't a stylist any longer.
