Wisconsin is going about the hiring process a little bit differently this time around. Barry Alvarez apparently doesn't feel he has anyone he can simply point to and say, "You, you're head football coach now."

Degree and area of specialization:

Minimum number of years and type of relevant work experience:

Dang. Well if you or anyone you know fits the bill, feel free to send an application in. Applications will be accepted only through Dec. 19, so don't delay!
