This is not going to put the conspiracy theories to rest.
This story raises more questions than it answers. A few thoughts...
.
- Why did Bo need two lawyers with him? I could see his agent if he's retiring, but a second lawyer indicates he needed protection. Typically that would indicate a dismissal, not a voluntary step-down.
- Why didn't Gard know? If Bo is announcing his retirement and Gard is taking over, you'd think Bo would give him a heads up of what was coming. That said, if Bo was fired, it would make sense as Bo probably didn't know it was coming and Barry wouldn't want Gard to find out first.
- No mention of Gard's situation being considered. They made a huge deal about Gard's dad being the reason they waited, if that was true, again, wouldn't Gard know ahead of time this was in the works? Why blindside a guy who just went through that loss?
- The comment about the academics and "right reasons" was telling that this was the opposite of that. Maybe bracing Madison for worse information to come?
- FWIW, Adultery is a Class I felony (https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/statutes/statutes/944/III/16/2) in the state of Wisconsin. If Bo was having an affair that included using hotel rooms paid for by the school on road trips, then taxpayer funds were going directly to sponsor him committing a felony.
Interesting that they met at Bo's condominium. So Bo has a house and a condo in Madison? I wonder how long he's owned the condo.
Meeting off-site, with Barry, two of his deputies and Ryan's two lawyers? This was obviously less than voluntary.

Bo sold his house to Paul Chryst earlier this year. It was mentioned in this ESPN article (http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/12812689/bo-ryan-not-ready-retire-wisconsin-badgers-coach-says-duke-loss-stings) from May.
Gotcha--thanks.
There are plenty of questions either unanswered or raised by that article that a good, fearless reporter will want to go digging, but will anyone of the Madison media risk the wrath of exposing anything negative about Ryan?

You can only write about what people are willing to say.
Polzin does a good job in this article when he says stuff like "Ryan's abrupt departure is still head-scratching on multiple fronts." and "It seems odd that if Alvarez and Ryan had discussions about pulling the plug at semester break, that Gard, who would be taking over, wouldn't have been notified so he could begin planning."
So clearly he is alluding that something odd happened and that the "retirement" was quite abrupt. But he can't really spell out what that is unless he gets someone on the record to talk about it.
EDIT: Remember this only happened a week ago.

I'll be honest, I'm surprised this even got published. My guess is people are doing the digging and trying to get sources and they know that. Maybe it's local, maybe it's national, but to me, this feels like a preliminary article written to brace the locals for what might come out in the next couple weeks.

Agreed, I thought it was strange Barry gave an interview just to address this topic.
Agreed. The bomb is out there. It isn't going to be one of the local sycophants who sets it off. I do not wish anyone ill and for Bo's sake that the conspiracy theories are wrong. But deep in my heart of hearts, if it turns out to be true, I am going to go to the badger boards and just watch and wallow in the wailing, the gnashing of teeth, the rending of garments, the exposed hypocrisy, the twisting of narratives, the reflexive blaming of Marquette, the incredibly twisted defenses of Bo...... It will be almost as much fun as The Force Awakens.

Normally, I'd feel dirty hearing and talking about all these rumors. But after hearing for 15 years how everyone is dirty, but their program is pristine and always does things the right way, I'll enjoy the hell out of this.
Also, the state media will not report on this until a Deadspin/TMZ type site puts it out there. UW is not messing around.

Exactly. Honestly, when I was at MU in the 80's, I never gave a single thought to UW. The games always took place over Christmas break, they stunk, and I was much more concerned about Notre Dame, Dayton, and DePaul. It wasn't until the advent of the internet that I learned the nature of UW fans and their attitudes toward MU. And it was so pervasive, foul, and wrong, that I began to take joy in the failings of the Badgers. Not as much as I took in an MU win, but enough. So, if the conspiracy theories are proven true, after all of the flat out lies, innuendo, racial slurs directed toward the University and basketball program I hold dearest, I am going to revel in their despair.

Do you think Barry is pushing this story to come out a little? I mean, do you think he has enough of an ego to want to "punish" Bo for retiring, then unretiring because Bo didn't want Barry to hire someone besides Gard?
I just don't think we ever get the real story. I hope I turn out to be wrong, but I don't see "St. Bo's" image every really being tarnished. Just a guy looking out for his right hand man. Or so they say...

It wouldn't surprise me at all if Barry knows this is coming out and also knows it could make him look just as bad as Bo. So get ahead of the story, push that this was all Bo, and hope you don't get caught in the fallout.
Let's say Bo was having an affair and Barry was aware. Barry was also signing the checks that paid for Bo's hotel rooms, thus not only making Barry complicit but now also partially responsible for Bo's ability to commit a felony by cheating on his wife.
Because this is tax payer money they are playing with, this all gets more interesting, and I have a feeling the average citizen would be a lot less forgiving than UWM fans if this all comes out.

Alverez is more than capable of feeding the media backchannels with none of it touching him.
Anything he puts out will be to enhance UW and himself. If Ryan needs to be thrown under the bus to do that, then it will happen.
Quote from: tower912 on December 22, 2015, 09:12:33 AM

This really did make me laugh out loud.
IMO the only way the whole story, if there is on, comes out is if Barry wants it to. Part of the rumors are not new and people in community knew about it. I do not think the local media will dig into this and someone will have to leak things to get it out there. Also, I do think it is very strange that he left town early the next morning with no return date. I get that it was a major career/life announcement but not sticking around to help in transition is odd to me.

Did anyone happen to catch the comment section on that article before the site shut it down? Apparently there were some posts spelling out the rumored reason why Bo was forced out. Even some folks over in Buckyville think Barry's insulating himself from whatever truth will come out.

It simply won't come out at all. We will hear whispers, and then there will be silence, just like every other big time face in college basketball. UNC has its student athletes take fake classes? Oh my gosh! Death penalty! Has anybody heard anything since? Nope. Louisville paid for prostitutes during recruiting trips for parents, players, and recruits alike! Oh my! How could this be! They should be nailed, Pittino is a dead man walking! And now? Not a word.
Money can make a lot of people close their mouths...

It'll come out. Not saying it will go anywhere, but it'll come out. Both the UNC and Louisville stories hit the national press before they were swept away. I fully expect the same will happen in Madison.

If there is one thing you need to know, it's that Barry's ego is bigger than the state of Wisconsin.
Not sure why you guys think that the local Madison press would sweep this under the rug. It means more views and clicks to their website. It wouldn't burn any bridges if it was true. In fact, it may make Barry think about getting out while he still has a favorable reputation.

Hards isn't just a pretty face around here, people. He's brought up two very important points that should be considered separately:
1) Barry's ego.
2) The objective of the press is to increase the eyeballs on them, not to serve as a lackey for a reputed member of the community.
Now consider, despite the truthiness of #2, that's not going to stop a reputable member of a community with a large ego from trying.

For what it's worth, Barry is a master at this exact thing. It's an open secret around Madison that he and Bielema are/were philanderers. The amount of locker room behavior throughout his career is rather shocking. What is more shocking is that it never seems to gain much traction when it's brought up. Barry as run Madison like the Godfather for decades, and many around town are none the wiser.
Personally, I think those days are numbered.

So in other words...nothing.
I would argue that that's the most important part. Closure. What happened, what didn't happen, and what's going to happen because of it?
This goes back as far as his Platteville days. People around the program in Platteville at the time aren't in the least surprised by recent rumblings of his womanizing. I'd have to imagine people in Madison were also aware of more recent incidents so I'm thinking there is something nefarious out there that led to the oddly timed resignation.

That would be splendid. Thanks in advance. :)

I believe this is true. I have little to no doubt that the Bo part is true as I heard this from someone "very close" to the family when he originally announced this would be his last year. I just heard the Barry part today from a well placed booster. I wouldn't bet my house on that part but maybe....my car? Not my wife's car but my shitty car. But let's be real here, the odds are pretty good that if you had an affair in Madison Barry probably has already hit it.

Exactly, but it goes much deeper. Who paid for the rooms? Who arranged transportation? Who in the athletic department arranged adjoining rooms?
Oh man, don't want to jinx it but how hilarious will this be. It's already damning.
Sign/taunt material for the next, what, 5 years minimum? And we don't even know the entirety of it yet.
So, taxpayers will be paying Bo's pension.
Should they have a say in an investigation of whether their taxpayer dollars were going to support a felony?

Well...it depends. If it was a UW staffer, they could have had rooms for both Bo and said staffer. If anything occurred in those rooms or on road trips at all (which is part of the stories I've heard) then effectively the school would have been paying for Bo to commit a felony, which means taxpayer dollars being funneled to support criminal acts, especially if anyone in the athletic department knew.

"How Bo's Liitle Peep Lost Him All His Sheep"
"The Third Man"
The Third Man is a visually-stylish thriller - a paranoid story of social, economic, and moral corruption in a depressed, rotting and crumbling Madison following a total bitch-slapping by its arch enemy, Marquette. The striking film-noirish, shadowy thriller was filmed expressionistically within the decadent, shattered and poisoned city.
The black and white, pessimistic film is one of the greatest thrillers of the post-McGuire era, in the best Alfred Hitchcock tradition, and beautifully produced and directed by Britisher Carol Reed.
This was Reed's second collaboration with screenwriter-author Graham Greene (after The Fallen Idol). It was based on Greene's novella of the same name, written solely to be a source text for the film screenplay and never intended to be read or published. It is a clever and original mystery tale simply evoked by one sentence written by Greene: "I saw a man walking drunkenly down State Street, whose last beat down I had only recently attended." It told of a love triangle with nightmarish suspense, treachery, betrayal, guilt and disillusionment.

A friend of mine who likes bucky told me Bo had 2 rooms at the final 4. One was for his wife, one was for the girlfriend. Supposedly the GF was in her 50's.... for what it's worth. I have heard multiple rumors form different sources about this whole topic. I find it awesome, because BADger fans always pride themselves on Bo doing things "the right way". Supposedly TMZ is "gathering info" as we speak. I'm expecting something to break very soon. Sit back and enjoy.....

yeah, i get the auto flush part, but do these things pull da crap outaya too? oh and thanks for the goulart bonus...pay to see that bum on my auto flush eatin stale saltines der hey.
How it all went down (or close to it)
First Date:
Tara : You're here with a strange girl being a naughty boy.
Bo : I don't think having dinner with anybody's a crime.
Tara : [to Bo] We were attracted to each other at the party, that was obvious! You're on your own for the night, that's also obvious... we're two adults.
Tara : Have you ever done it in an elevator?
Bo : Not recently, no.
Tara : You must be discreet.
Bo : Oh, god yeah.
Tara : Are you?
Bo : Am I what?
Tara : Discreet?
Bo : Yes, I'm discreet.
Tara : Me, too.
Tara : [to Bo] You play fair with me, I'll play fair with you.
Bo: Oh I believe in fair play!!!
After the national championship game:
Tara : I had a wonderful time last night. I'd like to screw you again. Is that possible?
Bo : No. I just don't think it's possible.
Bo : Look, Tara... I like you. And maybe if I wasn't with somebody else, I'd be with you. But I am.
Tara : Please don't justify yourself, it's pathetic. You'd tell me to unnatural carnal knowledge off, I'd have more respect for you.
Bo : All right, then unnatural carnal knowledge off.
6 Months later:
Tara : [to Bo] I guess you thought you'd get away with it. Well, you can't.
Bo : Why are you trying to hurt me?
Tara : I'm not trying to hurt you Bo, I love you!
Bo : You what?
Tara : I love you!
Bo : You don't even know me
Tara : How can you say that?
Bo : You're so sad. You know that, Tara? Lonely and very sad.
Tara : Don't you ever pity me, you smug bastard.
Bo : I'll pity you... I'll pity you. I'll pity you because you're sick.
Tara : Why? Because I won't allow you treat me like some slut of Barry's that you can just bang a couple of times and throw in the garbage?
Tara : [to Bo] Well, what am I supposed to do? You won't answer my calls, you change your number. I mean, I'm not gonna be ignored, Bo!
Next Day in Barry's Office
Bo : [to Barry] She keeps calling the condo. Every time Kelly answers the phone, she hangs up. I'm scared Barry, and I don't want to lose my family.
Barry: crap, crap, crap!
BO : [repeating Barry] crap, crap, crap! crap, crap, crap!
Bo : [to Barry] This has got to stop.
Barry: Whatever resentment she's feeling, she probably got it out of her system.
Bo : What if she didn't get it out of her system? What then?
Later that same day:
Tara : [to Kelly] And don't you think I understand what you're doing? You're trying to get him out of the country... and you're keeping him away from me. And you're playing happy family. Aren't you?
[begins to slice her own leg with a butcher knife]
Tara : You wouldn't understand that because you're so... so selfish. He told me about you. He told me about you. He was very honest. If you weren't so stupid, you'd know that. But you're so stupid. You're so stupid... you're a stupid, selfish bitch!
Final message to Bo:
Tara : [from her voicemail, which Bo is listening to] Hello, Bo. Are you surprised? This is what you force me to do. I guess you thought you'd get away with it. Well... you can't. 'Cause part of you is growing inside of me, and that's a fact, Bo. You'd better start... Learning how to deal with it. Just so you know... I feel you. I taste you. I think of you. I touch you. Can you understand? Can you? I'm just... asking you... to acknowledge your responsibilities. I... Is that so bad? I-I don't think so. I don't think it's unreasonable. And... you know, another thing... And it's that you thought you could just walk into my life, and turn it upside down, without a thought for anyone but yourself. You know what you are, Bo? You are a cocksucking son of a bitch. I hate you. I bet you don't even like real girls, do you? Ha! You disappoint me, you fucking pretty boy!!
Kelly : [to Bo] We better get going kiddo, we're gonna be late for the plane.
Holy crap. Big Daddy bringin' the fan fic!

What media? The Madison print media has been decimated and the MJS has its own issues. But you are right, potentially compromising access is ultimately going to prevent this from coming out through that forum.

Print, radio, tv. Reminds me of some of the stuff going on with Favre early in the Packer days. Everyone knew what was going on, media wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. They weren't going to do anything that would label them as hero killers in the state. Not exactly an independent body of truth seekers.
Barry is a great and I mean great politician in the state. Very well connected and he yields a lot of influence.
someone who has no skin in the game and cannot be affected by the pressure to stfu. barry knows a lot, i mean A LOT of people. could extend all the way to donna shalala who then has her wide circle. i just don't know if she and barry have any love for each other yet. i'm referring to when donna was chancellor at UW. she was the one who hired barry. as long as barry didn't burn that bridge...one call-that's all

ok norm, now see if you can follow me here-we're talking about if a journalist wants to step in it here and dig in and expose "the rest of the story". then you have people of barry alvarez-they may be able to discourage this very very much. in walks some national guy trying to make a name for himself. he says, screw you, i have no allegiance to mr. alvarez. but he gets a call from donna's people and suggests that a national story on bo ryans babes ain't a good idea-read not a healthy choice, you catching my drift there normy? or do i need to draw ya a picture? think broken brake lines, projectile vomiting, permanently parking in the handicap section, eating your food thru a straw...just to gossip about a guy whom many either still hold in high regard or may open a big can of worms. barry certainly doesn't need people to find out who he's been playing escaped jailer and the wardens wife with, finding out he collects cheerleaders panties, etc...does this help a little? and this could involve more than just barry. think big shot donors gettin in on the action. it's not what ya know, but who ya know people. conspiracy crap? hardly. just everyday life in the world of narcissists and sex and rock n roll baby

not really. i understand you haven't had much dealings with people in power straddling that fine line. they don't like the notoriety if ya know what i mean. you are being a little too literal here. but just the fact that there is that "that's a nice family ya have there...it's not what ya know, but...it's not as much the writer/journalist either. the editor may not want to open that door. all it takes is a little "friendly conversation" and the story never reaches the web. simple. these are powerful people you're dealing with here. wonder why bill clinton isn't in more trouble for all that he's done?? you don't think stuff like this goes on? i don't know what bubble you've been living in...
What's new? This story is dying out way too quickly...
The latest rumor I heard was that Bo fathered a kid that's now 2 years old from one of the affairs.

The administration is thrilled with who they have, so are some very prominent boosters, and current \ former athletic department \ university employees.
Check out the article from today. No one from Madison will ever write the Bo story, the media is in tight with the Athletic Department.

If UW was in Milwaukee, the story would have already broke. Instead they are in an insulated college town full of people who cant take off their Crimson colored glasses.

Why would they have crimson colored glasses?
And I don't recall the Marquette beat reporter (whoever it was back then) doing any story regarding the whole sexual assault allegations even though it was known by many for months before it even sniffed the light of day. So let's not assume the Milwaukee media would do anything about this either. Potroykus isn't writing anything about Bo either.

I'm sure there are journalists in Madison who want to do the research and write the story, but there's no incentive for them to do so because Madison/UW people don't want to hear it. In addition, the outlet that runs the story would basically be burning their bridge with the university. The only person who'd write that story would be an independent writer on his way out of state.
Put another way, let's say that a reporter wrote a piece detailing fact-based improprieties of Al McGuire. Think that person would be welcomed at a Marquette function? Now, replace "Al McGuire" with "Bo Ryan" and "at a Marquette function" with "in the state of Wisconsin" and there you go.

A well connected blogger could do it as well. I would guess that FOIA requests have already been submitted by someone somewhere.
People who expect relatively small newspapers to do this stuff don't understand the motives of that industry any longer. They don't break anything.
EDIT: Look at Texas A&M. Chip Brown, who writes for Horns Digest, detailed some of the issues related to the athletic department's financials, Kevin Sumlin's contract, and how the President wants to find a way to get out of the contract. This annoyed the President enough angst to call out the writer. Now Chip Brown was the guy on the A&M to SEC story long before any newspaper was. He's a well connected guy. But this is where this kind of stuff that breaks long before a publications does it.

The reasoning makes sense. Can you provide concrete examples to refute that assertion. To me, it's follow the money. A lot of revenue is generated through the university in college towns so tread lightly when anything threatens that stream. In bigger cities, that's not so much a problem. Of course, I agree "always" is extreme, but often or a majority of the time may be appropriate.

Tubby Smith at UK, Bobby Knights last year at IU, Pearl Show of Cause at UT, and Boeheim's 9 game suspension come to mind as scandals that are not in "large" cities - at least I've never heard anyone call Lexington/Bloomington/Knoxville/Syracuse large cities.

Fair enough, but a lot of those investigations, if not all, were spearheaded by the NCAA which is insulated from local scorn. Those reporters can take cover under the NCAA.

there's no reasoning involved...and to make that claim makes so many assumptions. plenty of examples to refute it...that means the word "always" was poorly used, but it's an assumption at best...stated as fact.

wow-ya just gotta love 'em. nothing to see here. 2 events in the last year have caused more bewilderment among UW fans...yeah, diamond stone he couldn't get into UW so (he turned down yale and harvard) and chose maryland instead-yeah right. but back to the bewilderment part-are you schmitting me? the UW fans wanted to know if bo got the top or did she? they want to know if bo had her barkin like a dog man. where did they meet? how many times? did she like whips and chains and did bo really like to be tied up? come on, he's a closet submissive just as we thought-heyna? oh well, at least dave aranda didn't leave over a profound disgust over bo's behavior or that bo wouldn't share. ah ha-it was for the money. now i can finally sleep-cool

Yes, reasonable assumptions that may be refuted. That's all I was saying.

Brandx lying again...weird. I said nothing of the kind about Buzz that is eerily familiar with what Bo is accused of. Nothing. If you want to talk about Buzz in other ways, sure. The administration is thrilled with who they have, so are some very prominent boosters, and current \ former athletic department \ university employees.
Of course not. Cuz you said you knew things about Buzz but won't say what they are.

I am on your side but Bo has a winning record against US and that can't be argued, plus two Final 4's. Maybe we need to compare law schools to settle this. And we unfortunately have to own Tom Crean, that is a disgusting reality

i'm thinking there's a little more to this story. whether or not anymore gets reported, remains to be seen. i don't think we will see it get to bill cosby-like proportions, but where's tara and the little one?? at least bo won't be hearing the chant "AIRBALL_AIRBALL AIRBALL" although he probably wishes he would
Is there more to the story? More than likely. Here's the thing; outside of a small subset of humanity, nobody cares. The only way 'the rest of the story' gets out is if there is an independent investigation that discovers some official misappropriation of state funds. Beyond that, as much as I wish it were otherwise, as much as I detested the man and the program, as hypocritical and misguided as that fanbase is, an old guy had an affair with a couple of younger women. It has been acknowledged. We are never going to get to see Bo get the comeuppance we all think he deserves.

The bigger story is that this is hardly the only UW coach \ administrator that has been doing this over the years. They have some serious issues with this stuff in the athletic department from the highest profiled employees for the last 5 years.
All the while telling their student athletes to be loyal.....
You mean like Barry's penchant for the ladies, the former football coaches rumored peccadilloes and the guy hitting on the athletes at the Rose Bowl?

What it took for this story to break:
1) The affair ended badly
2) The woman wasn't satisfied with that
3) She felt strongly enough to contact the university, likely knowing that the affair and her name would become public, and that she had nothing to gain materially
4) University officials believed there was enough to her allegations to launch an investigation (which apparently at least the Journal Sentinel was aware of but didn't report on at the time)
5) Points 3 and 4 above became public record
6) Word of the investigation got out
7) Deadspin thought there was enough to the story to dig deeper and file a public records request
8) Deadspin's impending story made this legitimate news in the eyes of other media
Bo Ryan may have had other affairs in the past. But unless one or more additional women come forward and there's some kind of wrongdoing on his part as an employee of the UW system, I doubt we'll hear more.
The irony of this story and the character it reveals in the administration of UW and the fanbase is priceless.
First, don't care about the affair itself, personal choice. I wouldn't be a party to such things, but if people choose to, whatever, that's there thing doesn't matter to me. However the mistress that came forward accused Bo of A) misuse of state funds B) mistreating her. Why was there little to no investigation into the mistreatment? If this same set of circumstances had occurred to Tom Izzo or Urban Meyer, the fanbase would have been hooting and hollering for me investigation, especially the mistreatment part. If this had been a regular old professor at Madison, he probably gets some sort of reprimand at a minimum.
At the end of the day, played out the way I thought it would, everything is going to be swept under the rug and we move on. Not going to worry about it, but it will be a nice little chip to play the next time the "we do things the right way" Madison crowd gets to clucking.
An employer can't reprimand someone for lying to their mistress. That's why they only focused on the misuse of state money.

Based upon how upset this women was, it does make one wonder if there were other women involved at the same time. Enough other alleged possible names surfaced.
Anyway, this cheating stuff doesn't upset me. Seems to go with his character from the stories I've heard. The fact that Bo had terrible graduation rates and didn't give a rip about his kids getting a degree, while acting like he was above reproach and doing it the right way, that I find to be very revealing about his character... but the UW faithful just don't care as long as they are winning.
Bo Quote Modified: I didn't get into coaching... for the money... it was a passion for trying to help young
people ladies.
Bo Quote Unmodified: The best thing to do is try and make sure you're getting something on your end. (and we thought he was talking about basketball).

I enjoyed reading about Gard reaching out to Bo after getting his contract and only getting voicemail
As he drove to work Tuesday morning, his first official day as Wisconsin's full-time head men's basketball coach, Greg Gard placed a call Bo Ryan, his mentor and former boss.
"I left him a voicemail," Gard said during his introductory news conference. "Just thanked him for the opportunity for recognizing a 22-year-old young college student that was trying to get into the profession and giving me an opportunity.
"It was just a thank-you phone call for all the opportunities he's given me over the past 23-plus years."
Bo's wife is probably screening all his calls.
