Bret Bielema Great Quotations

He works hard, he's a great recruiter and coach, and he's a fantastic person on and off the field. I'm very happy he's a Badger.

He gave me those notes to reflect on the move, just like Coach Holtz had given him the notes. It's great to hear different philosophies on coaching.

Mark has been a pleasant surprise for us. He has really responded well; the keys, the reads, he's got great ability, just his overall presence. It's good because he can now make plays both ways.

I would like to assemble a group of coaches that carry two common traits: great passion and great integrity. Kerry has great passion for the game, for recruiting, for his players and for people overall.

Andy is a competitor. He came in and played right away as a true freshman at linebacker and has a great competitive spirit ... I'm excited because I think he's found a rebirth a new way and a new opportunity to get on the field.

I like his strength, I like his gamesmanship. He sees an edge, he'll take it in a short fashion. He's got great power.

Chancellor Wiley and Coach Alvarez have extended me a fantastic opportunity to build on our record of success and great tradition. I'm enthusiastic about the future of Badger football and this chance to advance the program.

It's just great to be part of it. I think it's a great testament to the leadership (Alvarez) provides. From Day 1, it's been about this game.
