Let’s cut right to the chase. Barry Alvarez will not coach college football again. He has completely closed that door. “I have,” he said.
Three years ago, April 1, 2004, Alvarez officially assumed the dual role of University of Wisconsin athletic director and football coach. Fifteen months ago, Jan. 2, 2006, Alvarez made his final appearance as Badgers coach during a 24-10 victory over Auburn in the Capital One Bowl.
