He's a guy that didn't hesitate at all, just jumped right into the challenge and looked forward to the opportunity. He's definitely a big guy that can move around and do good things.

After several discussions with both Gino and Antonio, I felt it would be in the best interest of both student-athletes and the Wisconsin football program if they did not return to the program.

What we've been on Jack about is just becoming a complete football player. I think he is beginning to do that.
Bret Bielema -
Which has allowed Shane to take all the No. 2 reps. We just wanted to let him concentrate on doing that and become good at free safety. And, then, if he shows that he can maybe handle more and more things that may be a possibility.
Bret Bielema -
We're going to try to get as many people in the stands as possible. Make it a game-day environment.
Bret Bielema -
Assistant coaches make recommendations. Head coaches make decisions.
Bret Bielema -
One thing I think you have to do here at Wisconsin is maximize your personnel. From the standpoint of getting our best players out there, you've really got to make sure you're not burying anybody at a position.
Bret Bielema -
I'm a big believer in competition bringing out the best in people. There's plenty of time for this all to shake out.

The No. 1 piece of advice I've been given is to be your own man and I plan to do just that. Coach Alvarez put me in a position to have success and I solicit him for advice, but he hasn't placed any limitations or restrictions on me.

Going into that last series, I looked up at the board ... there was 7 yards in total offense. I was just amazed at that.
Bret Bielema -
He had to do certain things just to get out of the state, but I really admire his strength through this whole thing.
Bret Bielema -
I would like to assemble a group of coaches that carry two common traits: great passion and great integrity. Kerry has great passion for the game, for recruiting, for his players and for people overall.
Bret Bielema -
We will be a role-playing team at that position.
Bret Bielema -
He never once has made any emphasis on his last home game or his last game. It's just been status quo.
Bret Bielema
-
There will be certain things that we'll ask during a course of a practice. He's back there rattling off the answers as fast as we're giving the questions.
Bret Bielema -
It was an opportunity for them to get their legs back under them.
Bret Bielema -
I'm just worried about his health right now.
Bret Bielema -
We wanted to see him. The defensive coaches thought he moved well enough and wanted to give him a shot there.
Bret Bielema -
He got up and talked about what they ran and why they ran it. I was just amazed at his presence and his knowledge.
Bret Bielema -
We can run and we can hit people. I like that from the defensive standpoint.
Bret Bielema
-
They're a very unique offense; we knew that. They came out, especially in the first two series, in some things we didn't prepare for. They came out with two backs, which wasn't a high priority for them a year ago.
Bret Bielema -
The thing that Mike brings to the table is that he's a competitor. He plays hard every play. And he's willing to do anything we ask of him.
Bret Bielema -
He really has trouble when he gets inside too far. He's definitely one of those guys that has to view the play from one angle. I think that will get better and better for him as time goes on.
Bret Bielema -
It's been called, but the ones that you want to see called, probably don't get called. Put it that way.
