In assembling his first staff, University of Wisconsin head coach Bret Bielema sought to strike a balance between youth and experience. To this end, he brought in Bob Palcic to coach the offensive line and Mike Hankwitz to coordinator the defense.
Bielema is now seeking to replace both veteran assistants.
….Over the last two seasons, Palcic and Hankwitz each helped mentor their potential replacement on the UW staff.
Palcic, 59, has joined Rick Neuheisel’s staff at UCLA.
Hankwitz, 60, is looking for work after being relieved of his duties by Bielema.
