Director of Athletics Barry Alvarez Barry Alvarez is entering his eighth year as Director of Athletics at the University of Wisconsin and fourth without the additional title of head football coach. Alvarez served as A.D. and football coach from 2004-05. Wisconsin has enjoyed remarkable success during Alvarez’s tenure at the head of the athletic department, winning a combined 12 team national titles and 29 conference regular-season or tournament crowns since he took over. In Alvarez’s seven previous seasons as A.D., Wisconsin has finished at least 22nd in the NACDA Director’s Cup five times, including a 16th-place finish in 2006-07. That is the second-best finish in school history. Six different teams have won national titles during Alvarez’s tenure, including four in the magical 2005-06 season. Ten different teams have been crowned as conference champions, including five in each of the 2005-06, 200607 and 2007-08 seasons. On the academic side, more than 1,000 student-athletes have earned Academic AllBig Ten honors in the last six years. In each of the last two seasons, UW’s student-athletes have achieved at least a 3.0 cumulative GPA. And in 2009-10, nine sports either set or tied their highest team grade-point averages for either the fall or spring terms and four had the highest on record for the year. Alvarez was appointed in the spring of 2008 as one of the chairs of the NCAA’s Football Academic Enhancement Group, which was formed to review and recommend improvements for the APR rating. He also serves on the NCAA Football Issues Committee. In addition, Alvarez was named “Person of the Year” by the Big Ten Club of Southern California in 2008. Alvarez was voted into the state of Wisconsin Athletic Hall of Fame and the Rose Bowl Hall of Fame in 2009 and was inducted into the UW Athletics Hall of Fame in 2010. Recently elected to the College Football Hall of Fame, Alvarez guided Wisconsin’s football fortunes for 16 seasons (1990-2005). He has been at the forefront of the revival of the Badger athletic program during his entire tenure in Madison. He piloted Wisconsin to three Big Ten and Rose Bowl titles (including back-to-back in 1998-99) en route to becoming the winningest football coach in school history (118-73-4 record). Alvarez was just the 10th coach in Big Ten history to win 100 games at one conference institution. His 8-3 (.727) record in bowl games with the Badgers is the best in college football history (among coaches with at least 11 bowl appearances). The 1993 national coach of the year, he was a two-time (1993
and 1998) Big Ten coach of the year and a finalist for ESPN’s coach of the decade (1990s) honor. He received the Victor Award’s 1999 National Coach of the Year accolade and was the 2004 AFCA Region 3 Coach of the Year. Alvarez retired from coaching at the conclusion of the 2005 season in order to concentrate solely on running the Division of Intercollegiate Athletics. He has made a lasting impression on the Wisconsin sports scene. His well-documented turnaround of the oncemoribund Badger football program has helped to allow the school’s entire athletic department to blossom into one of the nation’s finest and most respected organizations in college sports. When Alvarez arrived in Madison in 1990, Wisconsin had compiled a 9-36 record during the previous four seasons and attendance at Camp Randall Stadium had dipped to an average of 41,734 per game (54 percent of capacity). The program sorely needed a boost and got it when new Director of Athletics Pat Richter hired Alvarez from Notre Dame, where he had been an assistant coach under Lou Holtz. Over the next 16 seasons Alvarez transformed the football program and, subsequently, the culture of athletics at the UW. The success of the football program ignited and heightened interest in Badger sports. Alvarez’s list of accomplishments at Wisconsin is remarkable. Consider just a few of the most notable … • winningest coach in school history (record of 118-73-4, .615) • highest bowl winning percentage of alltime (8-3, .727) • coached three Big Ten and Rose Bowl champions • only Big Ten coach ever to win the Rose Bowl in consecutive seasons • just the 10th coach in Big Ten history with 100 victories at one conference institution • coached five national award winners, including Ron Dayne (Heisman, Doak Walker, Maxwell), Jamar Fletcher (Jim Thorpe) and Kevin Stemke (Ray Guy) • guided UW to back-to-back Big Ten titles in 1998 and 1999 (hadn’t happened at Wisconsin since 1896-97) • coached the four of the five winningest teams in school history • named national coach of the year in 1993; Big Ten Coach of the Year in 1993 and 1998; Victor Award’s 1999 National Coach of the Year; and 2004 AFCA Region 3 Coach of the Year.

He was promoted (linebackers to defensive coordinator to assistant head coach) by Holtz each of his three seasons as the Fighting Irish went 32-5 and won the 1988 national title. While in South Bend, Alvarez coached AllAmerica linebackers Michael Stonebreaker, Ned Bolcar, Cedric Figaro and Wes Pritchett. Alvarez grew up in Langeloth, Pa., a small town among the coal mines and steel mills in western Pennsylvania. He starred as a prep linebacker and went on to play at Nebraska (1965-67) for legendary head coach Bob Devaney. Alvarez was the leading tackler for the 1967 Cornhuskers, who led the nation in total defense and created a school-record 40 turnovers. Alvarez played in both the Sugar and Orange Bowls at Nebraska (the Cornhuskers were 25-7 during his three varsity seasons). Alvarez is a 1969 graduate of the University of Nebraska, where he played linebacker and went on to earn his master’s degree. He received a Distinguished Alumnus Award from his alma mater in 2003. Alvarez and his wife, Cindy, were co-campaign chairs in the effort to bring a Gilda’s Club (a free support center for families dealing with cancer) to Madison. That facility opened in the fall of 2008. In addition, Alvarez serves on the Board of Directors of the MACC Fund (Midwest Athletes Against Childhood Cancer). Alvarez and his wife, Cindy, are the parents of three grown children - daughters Dawn and Stacy and son Chad (wife Stephanie). Barry and Cindy are grandparents to Joe and Jake Ferguson; Grace and Jackson Delzer; and Scarlett and Barry John Thomas Alvarez.

Alvarez’s coaching career began at the high school level. He served as an assistant at Lincoln (Neb.) Northeast High from 1971-73 before taking over as head coach at Lexington (Neb.) High from 1974-75. His last prep coaching stop was at Mason City (Iowa) High where he was head coach from 1976-78 and where his team won a 4A state title in his final year. Iowa’s Hayden Fry hired Alvarez as an assistant coach in 1979. The Hawkeyes played in six bowl games (two Rose Bowls) during Alvarez’s eight years in Iowa City, compiling a 61-33-1 mark in the process. Alvarez’s standout player with the Hawkeyes was LB Larry Station, a two-time All-American and two-time Academic All-American. Alvarez left Iowa after the 1986 season to become linebackers coach at Notre Dame.

Head Coach Bret Bielema The easy way to sum up Bret Bielema’s fiveyear career as Wisconsin’s head coach is to look at the numbers. 49 wins, five bowl appearances, four times ranked in the final A.P. top 25 and one trip to the Rose Bowl. Not as easy to quantify but just as important as the numbers are the adjectives people use when they talk about the Badger football team under Bielema, words like “tough,” “smart,” “physical,” “aggressive,” “punishing,” and “relentless.” Those are the characteristics that have propelled UW to consecutive 10-win seasons, including a share of the 2010 Big Ten title and a place in the 2011 Rose Bowl. Under Bielema’s watch, UW has extended its school-record bowl streak to nine seasons, the second-longest active streak in the Big Ten. Bielema’s career winning percentage of .754 (49-16) is the fourth-best in the country among FBS coaches with at least four seasons of experience. UW’s winning percentage over that span ranks second in the Big Ten. Bielema, who served as Wisconsin’s defensive coordinator for two seasons before becoming head coach, has helped UW amass a 43-4 record at Camp Randall Stadium in his seven years in Madison. That is the thirdbest home record in the country over that span. The Badgers won their first 16 home games under Bielema, the second-longest home winning streak in school history. Wisconsin is 49-16 (.754), including 27-13 (.675) in Big Ten games, during Bielema’s tenure. Despite coaching just five seasons, Bielema already ranks fourth in school history in career victories. In his seven seasons on UW’s staff, the Badgers are 68-22 (.756), the second-best record in the Big Ten over that span. In his first two seasons as head coach, Bielema led UW to 21 wins. Only two other men in Big Ten history -- Michigan’s Fielding Yost (22) and Ohio State’s Jim Tressel (21) -- have guided their teams to as many as 21 wins in their first two seasons as Big Ten head coaches. Bielema coached Wisconsin to victories in 17 of his first 18 games. That represents the second-best start to a head coaching career in Big Ten history. Only Michigan’s Yost, who went 55-0-1 from 1901-05, had a better beginning to a career. In 2010, the Badgers won a share of their 12th Big Ten championship in school history and first since 1999. UW tied a school record with seven conference victories. For just the second time in school history, Wisconsin recorded 11 regular-season victories. The only other 11-win regular season was in 2006, Bielema’s first season at the
helm. UW also finished the season with a perfect 7-0 home record, just the fourth 7-0 home season in school history. The Badgers earned their seventh-ever trip to the Rose Bowl, and their first since 1999. UW finished the season with an 11-2 record and ranked seventh in the final Associated Press Poll. The Badgers were explosive on offense, setting a school record and ranking fifth in the country in scoring offense (41.5 points per game). Their 45.2 points per game in conference play was second-best in Big Ten history. Wisconsin nearly became the first team in FBS history to have three running backs gain 1,000 yards in the same season as James White finished with 1,052 yards, John Clay had 1,012 and Montee Ball ran for 996. Wisconsin was the most disciplined team in the country in 2010, leading the nation in both fewest turnovers (9) and fewest penalties per game (3.15). UW also ranked in the top 10 nationally in pass efficiency, third-down conversions, fourth-down conversions, red zone offense, time of possession and turnover margin. The Badgers were one of just six teams in the country to rank among the top 25 in both total offense and total defense. The Badgers took home several national awards in 2010, including the Outland Trophy (Gabe Carimi), the Lott IMPACT Trophy (J.J. Watt) and the Unitas Golden Arm Award (Scott Tolzien). Carimi, Clay, Lance Kendricks, John Moffitt and Watt were all named All-Americans, giving Wisconsin its most All-American honorees since 1999. In the Big Ten, 18 players received some sort of All-Big Ten recognition, including five who picked up first-team honors. Carimi, Kendricks, Moffitt, Watt and Antonio Fenelus were all named first-team All-Big Ten, while Carimi was named Big Ten Offensive Lineman of the Year and White was chosen as the Big Ten Freshman of the Year. Wisconsin’s success under Bielema has translated to the classroom as well. UW had a record-tying 22 members of the football team honored as Academic All-Big Ten in 2010, the second consecutive season Wisconsin had 22 players named Academic All-Big Ten. Before 2009, the school record was 19, set in Bielema’s second season. In 2009, UW won 10 games for just the sixth time in school history, capping the season with a win in the Champs Sports Bowl over No. 14 Miami. The Badgers started the season 5-0 before dropping a pair of games to teams ranked in the top 15. Wisconsin then won five of its last six games to finish the season 10-3. Its 5-3 record in conference play
5
was good for a share of fourth place. After not being ranked to start the season, UW finished the year ranked 16th in both polls. In addition to the team success, a number of Badger individual earned honors in 2009. Running back John Clay was named Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year while linebacker Chris Borland took home conference freshman of the year honors. A total of five Badgers were named first-team All-Big Ten. Wisconsin led the Big Ten in scoring offense, total offense, rushing offense, rushing defense, sacks, time of possession and red zone offense. In the national rankings, UW ranked among the top 10 in rushing defense, third-down conversions, sacks, time of possession and red zone offense. In 2008, Bielema guided the Badgers through a midseason slump to qualify for their school-record seventh consecutive bowl game. UW began the season 3-0, including a road win at No. 21 Fresno State. That was Wisconsin’s first road win over a ranked nonconference opponent since 1958. Following that victory, UW lost four straight games to open the Big Ten season. The Badgers rebounded, however, winning four of their last five regular-season games in order to qualify for the Champs Sports Bowl. Included in that streak was a wild win over rival Minnesota that allowed UW to keep possession of Paul Bunyan’s Axe for the fifth straight season. Bielema took the Badgers to New Year’s Day bowl games in each of his first two campaigns as head coach. In 2007 the Badgers were 9-4 overall and Bielema was a semifinalist for the George Munger Award, given by the Maxwell Football Club to the national coach of the year. The 2007 Badgers fought through key injuries and other forms of adversity to
win four of their last five games and earn an invitation to the Outback Bowl in Tampa, Fla. Two Wisconsin players -- TE Travis Beckum and K Taylor Mehlhaff -- earned All-America honors. Bielema guided the Badgers to a 12-1 overall record and 7-1 mark in the Big Ten (good for a second-place tie with Michigan) during his rookie year in 2006. Wisconsin capped that record-setting season with a 17-14 win over Arkansas in the 2007 Capital One Bowl. No previous Wisconsin team had won more than 11 games in a season. In addition, Bielema became just the third rookie head coach in NCAA Bowl Subdivision history to pilot his team to 12 victories. Bielema’s efforts were rewarded when he was named the 2006 Dave McClain Big Ten Coach of the Year. Bielema also was named one of five finalists for the Bear Bryant National Coach of the Year Award and was a finalist for the 2006 Schutt Sports Division IA Coach of the Year Award. Wisconsin surprised most observers outside the program by setting school records for overall wins (12) and regular-season victories (11), as well as tying the UW mark for conference victories (seven). The Badgers did it with a defensive unit that ended the 2006 regular season ranked among the top three nationally in pass defense, pass efficiency defense, total defense and scoring defense. And they did it with an offense led by a pair of seniors (QB John Stocco and All-America tackle Joe Thomas), a young but talented offensive line, the Big Ten Freshman of the Year (P.J. Hill) at tailback and an emerging corps of receivers, including John Mackey Award semifinalist Travis Beckum. Bielema was Wisconsin’s defensive

coordinator in 2004 and 2005, a period in which the program produced a 19-6 record under former head coach Barry Alvarez. The 2004 Badgers were sixth nationally in scoring defense and ninth in total defense. The 2005 club, which earned Wisconsin’s first shutout since 1999, finished its 10-win season with a 24-10 victory over No. 7 Auburn in the 2006 Capital One Bowl; UW limited the high-powered Tigers to just 236 yards of total offense. During Bielema’s two years guiding the Badger defense, two players (DE Erasmus James and DB Jim Leonhard) earned firstteam All-America honors and two others (DT Anttaj Hawthorne and DB Scott Starks) were first-team All-Big Ten selections. While coaching the Badgers’ linebackers, Bielema developed Mark Zalewski and Dontez Sanders, both of whom earned honorable mention allconference acclaim. Bielema was co-defensive coordinator at Kansas State under former head coach Bill Snyder from 2002-03. The Wildcats were 22-6 during Bielema’s time there and finished in the top 10 nationally (in both 2002 and 2003) in scoring and total defense. The Wildcats won their first Big 12 title in 2003. Among Bielema’s standout players at Kansas State were first-team All-American Josh Buhl, 2003 NFL second-round draft pick Terry Pierce and second-team All-Big 12 selection Bryan Hickman. Prior to his years at Kansas State, Bielema spent nine seasons as an assistant coach at his alma mater, Iowa, where he worked for head coaches Hayden Fry and Kirk Ferentz. The 1997 Hawkeyes posted three shutouts and ranked No. 4 nationally in scoring defense. Bielema coached Fred Barr (firstteam All-Big Ten), Vernon Rollins and Matt Hughes (both honorable mention All-Big Ten) at Iowa. Head coaches for whom Bielema has worked--Alvarez, Snyder, Ferentz and Fry-have combined to win 599 games and guide their teams to 44 bowl games, so the Badger mentor has learned from some of the best in the business. The last nine teams (2002-10) for which Bielema has coached accumulated a 90-28 (.763) record. Bielema earned four letters (1989-92) after joining the Iowa football program as a walk-on. He earned a scholarship after his first year and was a member of Iowa’s 1990 Big Ten championship team. A starter as a junior in 1991, he was a team co-captain as a senior. Bielema signed a free agent contract with the Seattle Seahawks and later completed his playing career with the Milwaukee Mustangs of the Arena Football League. Bielema has participated in 10 bowl games as a player or coach. A 1992 graduate of Iowa with a bachelor’s degree in marketing, Bielema was born in Prophetstown, Ill., on Jan. 13, 1970.
Assistant Coaches DelVaughn Alexander Wide Receivers DelVaughn Alexander is entering his fifth season coaching the Badger wide receivers. He originally joined the program late during the summer of 2007 to take the place of Henry Mason, the team’s wide receivers coach who sustained an injury earlier that summer that prevented him from coaching. The 2010 season saw the Badgers pass for 2,593 yards, the sixth-highest singleseason total in program history. Wisconsin wide receivers combined to catch 110 passes for 1,448 yards and seven touchdowns on the season. In 2009 UW passed for the third-highest yardage total in school history (2,770 yards). UW’s wide receivers, especially honorable mention All-Big Ten choice Nick Toon, were a big reason for that. Toon led the Badgers with 805 receiving yards, the 11th-best total in school history and best for a Wisconsin wideout since 2005. UW wide receivers combined for 106 catches, 1,568 yards and six touchdowns. The year prior, Alexander led a young wide receiving corps that showed tremendous improvement throughout the season. The Badgers’ top four wide receivers (David Gilreath, Isaac Anderson, Toon and Kyle Jefferson) were either freshmen or sophomores. That quartet combined for 83 catches for 1,252 yards. Gilreath was an all-purpose threat, recording separate 100-yard rushing and receiving games, and earning second-team AllBig Ten honors. Anderson recorded a 100-yard receiving game and totaled 187 yards in the last three games, while Toon recorded 14 of his 17 catches in the last five games. Alexander helped guide the Wisconsin wide receivers through numerous challenges in 2007. The Badgers’ top two returning receivers--seniors Luke Swan and Paul Hubbard-each missed about half the season at different times due to injuries. The pair of veterans ended up combining for 39 catches and 756 yards. That adversity, however, led to the development of Jefferson as a freshman, who had 26 catches for 412 yards and two TDs. Jefferson’s yardage total was the fifth-highest ever for a UW freshman. Prior to coming to Wisconsin, Alexander had most recently been running backs coach, assistant travel coordinator, assistant special teams coordinator and NCAA rules representative at the University of San Diego. The 2005 San Diego offense was ranked No. 1 in the
7
nation in Division I-AA and won its conference title. Prior to that he was wide receivers coach and recruiting coordinator at Oregon State during the 2003-04 seasons. Alexander coached first-team all-conference selections in each of his two years with the Beavers. Alexander coached wide receivers and quarterbacks for three seasons (2000-02) at UNLV. He was passing game coordinator in 2000-01. Alexander-coached players earned first-team All-Mountain West accolades in each of his three years there. Alexander was also at UNLV for the 1998 season where he coached first-team all-conference choice Lenny Ware before spending 15 months (March 1999 to July 2000) with the San Diego Chargers. Alexander was a senior offensive assistant (running backs) with the Chargers and also had responsibilities with quality control, video analysis, opponent summaries and self scout. Alexander was a graduate assistant coach at his alma mater, Southern California, from June 1995 to February 1998. Alexander lettered in football and track at USC and earned a bachelor’s degree in social sciences / history in 1995. He played for two bowl-winning teams (1992 Freedom Bowl and 1994 Cotton Bowl) and has coached for five bowl-winning squads (1996 Rose Bowl, 2000 and 2003 Las Vegas Bowls and 2004 Insight.com Bowl, 2009 Champs Sports Bowl).

Chris Ash co-Defensive Coordinator / Defensive Backs In his second season on the Wisconsin coaching staff, Chris Ash was promoted to co-defensive coordinator following the 2010 season. In Ash’s first year in Madison, he coached the defensive backs, a position he still oversees. In his first season in charge of the secondary, Ash oversaw marked improvement in the Badger pass defense. UW allowed just 193.9 yards per game through the air, the lowest average allowed since 2006. Three of the starters in the Badger secondary earned All-Big Ten honors as cornerback Antonio Fenelus earned first-team all-conference from the media, free safety Aaron Henry was a second-team pick by the coaches and cornerback Niles Brinkley was a consensus honorable mention selection. In his first year as a starter at free safety, Henry scored three defensive touchdowns, recovered three fumbles, recorded two interceptions and led the team with 47 solo tackles. Fenelus led the team with four interceptions, including one he returned for a TD. Prior to coming to Wisconsin, Ash spent eight of the last 10 seasons at Iowa State, beginning as a defensive graduate assistant in 2000. He was promoted to secondary coach in 2002 and added the title of recruiting coordinator in 2006. Following the 2006 season he moved on to become the secondary coach and recruiting coordinator at San Diego State. He stayed there for two seasons before returning to Iowa State in the same position. Ash began his career as a volunteer assistant at Drake in 1996. The next season he served as a defensive graduate assistant for the Bulldogs. During those two seasons he was on the same staff as current UW assistants Dave Doeren and Charlie Partridge. When Doeren left Drake following the 1997 season, Ash took over his role as defensive coordinator for two seasons. Ash has coached in six bowl games in his career, including the 2009 Insight Bowl when Iowa State defeated Minnesota. Last year’s Cyclones’ defense finished ninth in the country with 32 takeaways and tied for second in the nation in red zone efficiency. In 2005, Iowa State led the Big XII in interceptions (22) after finishing second in the conference the prior year (17). Ash graduated from Drake with a bachelor’s degree in secondary education in 1996. He received his master’s degree in education from Iowa State in 2005. A native of Ottumwa, Iowa, Ash and his wife, Jessica, have two children, Tanner and Jacey.

Amazingly, a school-record six Badger offensive linemen were recognized as AllBig Ten, including Carimi and Moffitt, who were each consensus first-team members. Following the season, all three of UW’s senior offensive linemen were chosen in the NFL Draft, making Wisconsin one of two schools in the country with three o-linemen drafted. Carimi went in the first round to the Chicago Bears, Moffitt was a third-round pick of the Seattle Seahawks and Bill Nagy was chosen in the seventh round by the Dallas Cowboys. It was the first time since 1988 that Wisconsin had at least three offensive linemen taken in the same draft. Wisconsin is one of just five teams in the country that has averaged at least 200.0 yards rushing per game in each of the last four seasons. The Badgers have led the Big Ten in rushing in each of the last three seasons. In 2009, despite starting six different combinations at offensive line, UW led the Big Ten in total offense, scoring offense and rushing offense while allowing just 23 quarterback sacks, its lowest total since 2004. Running back John Clay earned Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year honors while leading the Big Ten and ranking eighth in the country with 1,517 rushing yards. Two offensive linemen, Carimi and Moffitt, were named firstteam All-Big Ten. In 2008, Bostad helped guide a running game that averaged a Big Ten-leading 211.2 yards per game, good for 14th in the country. Running backs P.J. Hill and Clay combined for 2,045 yards and became the first Badger duo to run for at least 800 yards in the same season since 1994. Bostad’s offensive line boasted three seniors that earned All-Big Ten recognition (Kraig Urbik, Andy Kemp and Eric Vanden Heuvel). Urbik was also selected a first-team All-American by ESPN.com and drafted in the third round by the Pittsburgh Steelers. Bostad oversaw a rushing attack that amassed 2,610 yards in 2007, an average of 200.8 per game that ranked second in the Big Ten. In addition, Bostad-coached tight ends Travis Beckum and Garrett Graham were the Badgers’ leading receivers. Beckum, who accumulated 982 yards on a school recordtying 75 receptions (both new records for a UW tight end), was a finalist for the John Mackey Award and a first-team All-American. Graham put up 30 catches for 328 yards and four TDs. Bostad enjoyed a tremendously productive first year at Wisconsin in 2006. UW’s top two tight ends - Beckum and Andy Crooks - were unquestionably key components in the team’s record-breaking 12-1 campaign. Beckum, who caught five TD passes, was a John Mackey Award semifinalist and earned

Bob Bostad Run Game Coordinator / Offensive Line Bob Bostad (pronounced BO-stad) is entering his sixth season as an assistant coach at Wisconsin. He was named run game coordinator in February of 2007 and became the Badgers’ offensive line coach in January of 2008 after coaching tight ends his first two seasons. Under Bostad’s tutelage, UW’s offensive line has become one of the preeminent position groups in the country. The 2010 season proved to be one of the most successful in Badger history, thanks in large part to the efforts of the offensive line. Averaging 245.7 rushing yards per game, Wisconsin finished 12th in the country in that category. The Badgers nearly made history as they fell just four yards short of having three running backs run for at least 1,000 yards in the same season. No team in FBS history has ever done that. The Wisconsin offense shattered the school record for scoring average, leading the Big Ten and finishing fifth in the country with 41.5 points per game. The Badgers also tied a Big Ten record with 46 rushing TDs and set a school record by averaging 5.47 yards per carry. UW allowed just 14 sacks, the fewest since 1998. Bostad oversaw the development of a pair of All-Americans. Gabe Carimi, the 2010 Outland Trophy winner, was a consensus All-American, while John Moffitt was firstteam All-American by the Associated Press. It marked the first time in school history a pair of linemen earned first-team All-American honors in the same season.

ate assistant at Minnesota under head coach Jim Wacker. Bostad got his coaching start at his alma mater, UW-Stevens Point, where he coached the offensive line from 1990-91. Bostad graduated from UW-Stevens Point in 1989 with a degree in physical education. He was a four-year starter as a linebacker for the Pointers and earned allconference mention each year. UW-Stevens Point won 33 games during his career and tied Pacific Lutheran for the NCAA Division III national title in 1987. Bostad earned a master’s degree in kinesiology from Minnesota in 1994. Bostad is a native of Pardeeville, Wis. He and his wife, Cara, have three daughters: Rachel, Bryn and Annika, and a son, John.

Walter Camp second-team All-America honors. Crooks, who had 19 catches for 206 yards, added four touchdown grabs and earned UW’s Tom Wiesner Award. Prior to coming to Wisconsin, Bostad coached the offensive line at New Mexico from 1999-2005. Bostad’s 2005 offensive line, which paved the way for DonTrell Moore, the Mountain West Conference offensive player of the year and the nation’s 10th-leading rusher, featured a pair of first-team all-conference selections, including center Ryan Cook and guard Robert Turner. Cook was a secondround draft choice of the Minnesota Vikings, while tackle Terrance Pennington was a seventh-round pick of the Buffalo Bills. Both players started as rookies. During Bostad’s tenure at New Mexico, 14 Lobo offensive linemen earned all-conference mention, including seven first-team selections (both of those figures are tops in MWC history). Among the players Bostad coached at New Mexico were: tackle Claude Terrell, a third-team A.P. All-American and fourth-round draft choice of the St. Louis Rams (he started as a rookie for the Rams in 2005) . The 2003 Lobos led the MWC in scoring (30.1 ppg) and ranked 11th nationally in rushing average (227 ypg). The 2002 New Mexico line allowed just 17 quarterback sacks in 14 games (352 passing attempts). Bostad was offensive line coach (199798) and offensive coordinator (1998) at San Jose State prior to his years at New Mexico. His top player with the Spartans was David Loverne, a first-team All-WAC selection and third-round choice of the New York Jets. Bostad coached the offensive line at Cal State Northridge in 1995-96 and spent three seasons (1992-94) as an offensive line gradu-
Paul Chryst is entering his seventh consecutive season at Wisconsin and his eighth overall as an assistant coach for the Badgers. Chryst, UW’s co-offensive coordinator and tight ends coach in 2005, is now in his sixth year as the program’s offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. Chryst, the Badgers’ tight ends coach in 2002, returned to Wisconsin in 2005 and his impact on the UW offense has been undeniable. In the last five seasons, Wisconsin has averaged 31.9 points and 408.6 yards per game. In addition, the names of three quarterbacks he has coached dominate Wisconsin’s record book. Scott Tolzien, the starter each of the past two seasons, is at the top of both the career completion percentage and pass efficiency lists. Tyler Donovan and John Stocco rank third and fourth, respectively, in completion percentage while Stocco is second in career passing yards, attempts, completions and touchdowns. Wisconsin has compiled a 49-16 (.754) record during Chryst’s five seasons at the helm of the offense. The 2010 season was an historic one for the Badger offense. UW finished fifth in the country, averaging 41.5 points per game to demolish the school record by more than a touchdown a game. In Big Ten play it was even better, averaging 45.2 points in its eight league games, the second-best average in Big Ten annals. Heading into last season, UW had not scored 70 points in a game since 1915. The Badgers did it in three different games. The stength of the offense was its running game. UW nearly became the first team in FBS history to have three different players

rush for at least 1,000 yards in the same season as James White had 1,052 yards, John Clay had 1,012 and Montee Ball had 996. The Badgers finished 12th in the country in rushing offense and tied a Big Ten record with 48 rushing TDs. As a balance to the stellar running game, the passing game featured Tolzien, the 2010 Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award winner, and Mackey Award finalist Lance Kendricks. Tolzien set the Big Ten single-season record for completion percentage and finished sixth in the country in pass efficiency. The offense boasted three first-team All-Americans (Gabe Carimi, John Moffitt and Kendricks), four national award finalists (Carimi, Clay, Kendricks and Tolzien) and two national award winners (Carimi and Tolzien). UW ranked in the top 10 nationally in scoring offense, pass efficiency, fewest turnovers lost, third-down conversions, fourthdown conversions, red zone offense, time of possession and fewest penalties per game. In 2009, the Badgers led the Big Ten in both scoring (31.8 ppg.) and total offense (416.9 ypg.). Both averages are among the top five in school history. It was the first time in conference history (records date back to 1985) that UW has led the league in both categories in the same season. Wisconsin paced the Big Ten in scoring during conference games for just the sixth time in league history (records date back to 1936). UW was one of just six teams in the country to average at least 200.0 yards rushing and passing in 2009. Wisconsin led the country in time of possession (33:54), tied
for third in red zone offense (94.6 percent), ranked 10th in third-down conversions (47.5 percent) and 15th in rushing offense (203.8 ypg.). 2009 was also a big year for UW individuals as Clay became the first Badger since 1999 to win Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year honors. The sophomore led the conference and ranked with in the country with 1,517 yards. Four offensive players (Clay, TE Garrett Graham, Carimi and Moffitt) earned first-team All-Big Ten honors, the most for the Badgers since 1999. Tolzien, who entered 2009 with eight career pass attempts, led the Big Ten in pass efficiency at 143.0, the third-best mark in school history. His 2,705 passing yards were the second-most in school history. Tolzien completed a school-record 211 passes and his completion percentage of 64.3 was secondbest in the conference, 14th in the country and third in school history. In 2008, the UW offense overcame injuries and a midseason switch at quarterback to still lead the Big Ten in rushing offense. The Badgers’ 211.2 yards per game on the ground was their highest average since the 1999 Big Ten championship season. The 399.2 yards of total offense per game was the seventh-best season average in school history and Wisconsin averaged 31.7 points over its last six games. The prior season saw the Badgers lead the nation in time of possession (33:44) and averaged 29.5 points per game, tied for the ninth-highest scoring average in school history. Wisconsin also averaged 408.8 yards per game of total offense, the sixth-highest figure in program history. Junior All-American and John Mackey Award finalist Travis Beckum broke his own school record for receiving yards by a tight end with 982 and tied the UW record for receptions in a season with 75. Sophomore RB P.J. Hill reached the 1,000yard rushing mark for the second consecutive season while Donovan ended up throwing for what was then the second-most yards (2,607) in UW history and broke the school record for passes attempted in a season with 333. Five players from the 2005 Badger offense were selected in the 2006 NFL Draft and several others were lost to graduation, so Chryst had to rebuild the 2006 offense with a new staff and eight new starters. The result? Chryst helped orchestrate Wisconsin’s record 12-win season with an offense that produced: 1) the 10th-highest scoring (29.2 ppg) unit in school history; 2) the second-winningest quarterback in school history (Stocco had 29 victories as Wisconsin’s starter), who finished second in every major career passing category at UW; 3) an Outland Trophy winner in OT Joe Thomas; 4) the school record-holder for receptions (61) and receiving yards (903) by

DeMontie Cross Special Teams Coordinator / Safeties DeMontie Cross is in his first season as special teams coordinator and safeties coach. Cross spent the previous five seasons in various positions with the Buffalo Bills. He joined the Bills as a defensive/special teams assistant in 2006 and was then promoted to assistant linebackers coach/special teams for three seasons. Last year Cross was promoted again, coaching the Bills’ inside linebackers. “During my time as head coach I have tried to hire DeMontie a number of times and the timing was finally right,” Wisconsin head coach Bret Bielema said. “He will be heavily involved in special teams as well as with our defensive staff. He is a tremendous addition and will help our recruiting efforts in the St. Louis area. DeMontie’s hiring strengthens our staff and will help us continue to improve as a football team.” “I’m very thankful for the chance to join coach Bielema’s staff and become a part of the Wisconsin family,” Cross said. “The program is obviously headed in the right direction and competing for championships. I’ve worked hard to get to this position in my career and am excited for the opportunity.” Cross made the jump to the NFL after spending 2001-05 as Iowa State’s outside linebackers coach and special teams coordinator. Cross’ unit made major contributions to the Cyclones’ record-setting defenses during his stint. Cross helped develop Jeremy Loyd into an All-Big 12 performer who played for the St. Louis Rams. Cross was on the same coaching staff with Wisconsin codefensive coordinators Chris Ash and Charlie Partridge for a time at ISU. “The chemistry factor is very important,” Cross said. “It will help us not only in recruiting but also game-planning and working together as a staff.” Cross spent the 2000 season coaching a defensive backfield at Sam Houston State that ranked second nationally (FCS). Cross’ Sam Houston State pass defense was led by free safety Keith Davis, who was the Southland Football Conference Defensive Player of the Year and started the 2005 season for the Dallas Cowboys at safety. Cross began his coaching career as the outside linebackers coach at his alma mater, Missouri (1998-99). A 1997 Missouri graduate with a bachelor’s degree in business management, Cross made 415 career tackles at free safety for the Tigers from 1994-96. He led Missouri in tackles as a junior and senior and earned secondteam all-conference honors from the Big Eight

Following a mid-season coaching transition, Hammock took over play-calling duties for the final five games. During those five games, he led an offense that helped the team secure wins in its final two games, including its first rivalry win in four years, defeating Iowa for the Floyd of Rosedale trophy. Prior to joining Minnesota, Hammock served as the running backs coach at Northern Illinois. Under Hammock’s tutelage, NIU running back Garrett Wolfe led the nation in rushing (148.3 ypg) and all-purpose yardage (167.0 ypg) in 2006. Wolfe was named the 2006 MAC Offensive Player of the Year and was first-team All-MAC in both 2005 and 2006. Hammock spent two seasons as a graduate assistant at Wisconsin from 2003-04, helping the Badgers make Music City (2003) and Outback (2004) bowl appearances. As a player, Hammock ranks ninth on the Northern Illinois all-time rushing list with 2,432 career yards. He logged 1,083 yards as a sophomore in 2000, ranking 12th in the NCAA (120.3 ypg.), and posted 1,095 yards as a junior. Unfortunately, Hammock’s senior season was cut short due to a potentially lifethreatening heart condition in 2002. Adversity propelled his coaching career as he turned his attention towards becoming a student coach and helped Michael Turner post a MAC single-season rushing record of 1,915 yards in 2002.

Prior to North Carolina, Huxtable spent a year as the linebackers coach and special teams coordinator at Oklahoma State. Before coaching the Cowboys, he spent two years on the East Carolina staff. Huxtable worked with the Pirate linebackers in 1998 and defensive line in 1999. Huxtable and UCF head coach George O’Leary worked together at Georgia Tech during the 1990s. While serving as the Yellow Jackets’ linebackers coach from 1992-97, Huxtable also spent time as the program’s defensive coordinator (1996-97) and special teams coordinator (1992-94). Huxtable’s first stint at East Carolina came in the early 1990s, coaching linebackers and special teams from 1990-91. He also coached at Western Kentucky from 1985-89 and was the Hilltoppers’ defensive coordinator in 1989. He began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at Iowa State in 1982 and then served as the defensive coordinator at Independence Community College in Kansas. During his career, Huxtable has coached a pair of players who were selected in the first round of the NFL Draft: Robert Jones at East Carolina (Dallas, 1991) and Keith Brooking at Georgia Tech (Atlanta, 1997). A 1979 graduate of Eastern Illinois with a bachelor’s degree in education, Huxtable and his wife Vicki have a daughter, Shea, and a son, Jake. Shea played tennis at Georgia Southern and Jake played the 2009 and 2010 seasons on the UCF baseball squad.
Dave Huxtable Linebackers Dave Huxtable is in his first year as linebackers coach at Wisconsin. Huxtable, with 29 years of college coaching experience, has spent the last seven seasons at UCF, the last three as the Knights’ defensive coordinator. Last year UCF won the Conference USA title and defeated Georgia in the Liberty Bowl, recording a school-record 11 wins. Huxtable’s defense was a big reason for that success. The Knights ranked eighth nationally in scoring defense (17.1 ppg.), eighth in rushing defense (108.4 ypg.), 15th in total defense (315.4 ypg.) and 18th in pass efficiency defense (113.0). “I think Dave is a great addition to our staff,” Bielema said. “He brings a ton of experience, having coached the linebacker position virtually his entire career. His defenses at UCF were very well-coached, as evidenced by their success this season. As good a coach as he is, he is even a better person and he will fit into our staff very well.” In 2009, UCF was fourth in the country in rushing defense (82.8 ypg.), sixth in sacks (38.0) and tied for seventh in fumbles recovered (16). In Huxtable’s first season as coordinator, the Knights were third in the country in tackles for loss (8.2 per game) and 18th in the country in pass efficiency defense (107.5). “I’m really excited about the opportunity to coach at Wisconsin,” Huxtable said. “The University of Wisconsin is a top-notch program with great tradition. When I came up to visit I was so impressed with the people, the coaching staff and Coach Bielema. I’m very excited to get the opportunity to work for him. I’m looking forward to getting up to Madison and winning football games.” Huxtable spent his first four seasons at UCF as the linebackers coach and special teams coordinator. From 2001-03, Huxtable worked at North Carolina. He coached the linebackers for three seasons and also served as the team’s defensive coordinator for the final two years of his stint in Chapel Hill. In 2001, he also was North Carolina’s special teams coordinator. Huxtable helped guide a unit that finished first in the Atlantic Coast Conference and 15th in the nation in 2001 in total defense. In addition, he molded a group of inexperienced linebackers into one of the top units in the ACC. Under Huxtable’s instruction, former walk-on David Thornton earned All-ACC honors in 2001 after leading the Tar Heels with 131 tackles.

Badgers’ kickers the last two seasons, placekicker Philip Welch and punter Brad Nortman. Welch, a first-team Freshman AllAmerican in 2008, led the Big Ten in scoring in conference games last year and already ranks ninth in school history with 197 career points. His .771 career field goal percentage is second-best in school history. Nortman was an honorable mention all-Big Ten selection in 2009 and ranks third in school history with a 41.9 career average. Partridge, an assistant at Pittsburgh for five years, coached the defensive line for his first four seasons there before switching to linebackers in 2007. He had special teams coaching responsibilities for the last three seasons, including the last two as special teams coordinator for the Panthers. Pittsburgh ranked No. 5 nationally and led the Big East in total defense last season, allowing just 297.7 yards per game. In addition, the Panthers led their conference and were No. 3 in pass defense, surrendering only 167.3 yards per game. Pittsburgh was fourth in the Big East with nearly three QB sacks per contest. The Panthers’ signature defensive effort in 2007 came when they shut down high-powered and No. 1-ranked West Virginia in a 13-9 win that eliminated the Mountaineers from national title contention. Linebacker Scott McKillop led the Panthers with 151 tackles in 2007 and was named first-team All-Big East. Joe Clermond, a defensive lineman whom Partridge had coached at Pitt, was a second-team All-Big East selection in 2007. Partridge’s special teams units flourished at Pittsburgh. In his first season as special teams coordinator (2006), Pitt led the Big East in net punting (37.54 avg.) and kickoff returns (24.14 avg.). Punter Adam Graessle was an All-Big East selection that season and
Charlie Partridge Associate Head Coach / co-Defensive Coordinator / Defensive Line Charlie Partridge is entering his fourth season at Wisconsin. After spending the last three years as UW’s defensive line and specialists coach, he was promoted to assiciate head coach, co-defensive coordinator and defensive line coach in 2011. The 2010 season was highlighted by the play of junior defensive end J.J. Watt, who won the Lott IMPACT Trophy. Watt was the leader of Wisconsin’s defense, finishing the season tied for seventh in the country in tackles for loss (21). A consensus first-team All-Big Ten selection, Watt tied for second in the Big Ten in sacks (7.0) and tied for third in forced fumbles (3) and fumble recoveries (2). He tied for second on the team in tackles (62), led the team with 10 quarterback hurries and also broke up eight passes, blocked three kicks and recorded an interception. A second-team All-American by Walter Camp, Rivals.com and CBSSports.com, Watt was named Lott IMPACT Defensive Player of the Week three times during the season. He was drafted 11th overall by the Houston Texans in the 2011 NFL Draft, the highest for a UW defensive player since 1992. In 2009, the UW defensive line exceeded all expectations after losing three senior starters from the prior year. The headliner of the group was senior defensive end O’Brien Schofield, who ranked second in the country with 24.5 tackles for loss, the second-highest total in school history. He also tied for seventh in the country and third in school history with 12.0 sacks, while Watt pitched in with 15.5 TFLs. The duo’s 40.0 combined TFLs were the most by a pair of teammates in the country. The d-line was also instrumental in transforming UW’s rush defense into one of the best in school history. Wisconsin led the Big Ten and ranked fifth in the country in rushing defense, allowing just 88.2 yards per game on the ground (second-best in school history). The Badgers held each of their last 10 opponents to less than 100 yards rushing, the longest streak in the country and the longest streak in school history. In his first year at UW, 2008, Partridge led a veteran line. The three senior starters, Matt Shaughnessy, Mike Newkirk and Jason Chapman, all earned All-Big Ten mention while Schofield, in his first season as a starter at defensive end, tied for the team lead in sacks. Partridge has also worked with the

multiple-TE sets, Jacob Pedersen and Jake Byrne also made their mark last season. Pedersen, a redshirt freshman, caught eight passes, two for touchdowns, while Byrne started eight games and hauled in five passes. On the year, UW tight ends caught 56 passes for 838 yards and eight touchdowns. Kendricks became the first Badger since Travis Beckum in 2007 to record backto-back 100-yard receiving games when he tallied 103 receiving yards and one TD on six catches vs. Austin Peay one week after a career-high seven receptions for 131 yards and one score in win over Arizona State. Kendricks won consecutive John Mackey Tight End of the Week honors for those two games. In 2009, Badger tight ends accounted for 86 catches, 1,014 yards and 10 touchdowns. The group was led by first-team All-Big Ten selection Garrett Graham. Graham finished his career with 1,492 receiving yards, 11thbest in school history. His 121 career receptions are tied for sixth in school history while his 16 career receiving touchdowns are tied for fifth. Graham had seven TD receptions in 2009, tied for third in the Big Ten. Kendricks showed potential for continuing Wisconsin’s stellar tight end play by catching 29 passes for 356 yards and three scores last year, including a seven-catch, 128-yard performance against Miami in the Champs Sports Bowl. Senior Mickey Turner, who along with Graham served as captains on offense, was one of the more versatile players in the Big Ten, lining up in the backfield, on the line or split out wide and was an integral part of the offense. In his first year, 2008, Rudolph coached a talented group that was decimated by injuries throughout the season but was still a very productive unit. The top four tight ends combined to miss 14 games last year but still accounted for more than 40 percent of the team’s receptions and receiving yards. Travis Beckum, a preseason AllAmerican, was limited to just six games and suffered a season-ending broken leg. Graham

A tight end has led the Badgers in receving in four of the last five years and five Badger tight ends have been drafted in the last six years. Kendricks led the way in 2010. A finalist for the John Mackey Award, he paced Wisconsin with 43 catches for 663 yards and five touchdowns. In addition, Kendricks proved invaluable as a blocker for the Badgers’ high-powered rushing attack. Kendricks ranked third among all FBS tight ends in receiving yards.

HOME GAMES IN CAPS *AP & USA Today %Rose Bowl, Pasadena, Calif.
Wisconsin was one of just six teams in the country to rank among the top 25 in both total offense and total defense. The others were TCU (13-0), Boise State (12-1), Stanford (12-1), Ohio State (12-1) and Alabama (10-3).
Team Notes Wisconsin won a share of the Big Ten title, the team’s 12th in history and first since 1999, tying a school record with seven conference victories. The Badgers qualified for the Rose Bowl for the seventh time in school history and first time since 2000.
There were 28 major individual FBS award winners in 2010. Wisconsin was the only team in the country to have three different players win awards. LT Gabe Carimi won the Outland Trophy, QB Scott Tolzien won the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award and DE J.J. Watt won the Lott IMPACT Trophy. Auburn (QB Cam Newton and DT Nick Fairley) and Oklahoma State (WR Justin Blackmon and K Dan Bailey) were the only other schools with multiple winners.
UW won 11 games for just the third time in school history (fourth 10-win season in the last six years). Wisconsin finished the season ranked seventh in the Associated Press poll and tied for eighth in the USA Today Coaches Poll. It was the fifth time in school history UW was ranked in the top 10 to end the season and first time since 2006, head coach Bret Bielema’s first year.
Wisconsin was the most disciplined team in the country in 2010. The Badgers turned the ball over just nine times, the fewest in the country and the fewest in school history. They were also the leastpenalized team in the country, averaging just 3.15 penalties per game.
The Badgers’ offense led the Big Ten and averaged a school-record 41.5 points per game (fifth in the country), including 45.2 points per game in Big Ten play, second-best in conference history.
The Badgers ranked top-10 nationally in scoring offense, pass efficiency, fewest turnovers lost, third-down conversions, fourth-down conversions, red zone offense, time of possession, turnover margin and fewest penalties per game.
UW nearly became the first team in FBS history to have three RBs gain 1,000 yards in a season as true freshman James White paced the team with 1,052 yards, junior John Clay registered 1,012 yards and sophomore Montee Ball had 996 yards.
