CHICAGO ? As a brash, young head football coach who got his first job with the University of Wisconsin in 2006, Bret Bielema was never reluctant to make his voice heard.
“I probably spoke too much when I was a rookie,” Bielema said with a chuckle on Thursday, during the first day of the Big Ten Conference Football Media Days.
“I?m sure the conference coaches would agree with that.” The difference now, entering his sixth year, is people pay more attention to what Bielema has to say.
