A refreshing column from Tom Oates on long time UW women’s track coach Peter Tegen. Oates’ essential point is that Alvarez’s record the past few years has not been great, therefore will he get the same treatment as Tegen?
Several years ago, I recall reading a Doug Moe column that mentioned that WSJ sportswriter Vic Feuerherd was “forbidden” from writing about the Badgers. (I seem to recall that Feuerherd was exiled to cover the Brewers….). I’m glad to see the WSJ take a more proactive position (which they should!).
