Mike Lucas: Palcic, UW football flying high

MIDDLETON – University of Wisconsin offensive line coach Bob Palcic walked through the door of the small airport, Morey Field, shortly after 8 a.m. Sunday. He was wearing a blue sweat suit and his game face.

…. Palcic has been flying, on and off, for 10 years, dating to an earlier coaching stint with the Atlanta Falcons in the National Football League. He has logged about 250 hours.

“It’s an escape,” he said. “I don’t play golf, I don’t really have any other hobbies. I’ve always had an interest in flying. This is what I like to do.”
