I agree, it's an interesting move.That's actually pretty cool. There's not many AD's who could pull that off but I think Alvarez can do it.
There's a story up on MrSEC saying that one reason Bielema wanted out at Wisconsin was he was tired of working in Alvarez's shadow.Alvarez is undefeated (3-0) in the Rose Bowl; Bielema is winless (0-2).
Of course, this is a different Pac-10/12 than Alvarez' days.
that is my predictionI wonder if he winds up getting the Chris Ault or Bill Snyder itch and winds up coming back full time as HC.
