    For those going to the women's games this weekend, free parking will be at lots 33 and 45. There's some wrestling crap going on at the KC so lot 91 is not free this weekend. Be sure you DVR the men's game when you go to the women's game. Is there any way the UW and UM women can avoid a semi's matchup in the ncaa's? I think not. I wish there was a forum for women's hockey. That would be so cool.

      Excuse my lack of knowledge, but where are lots 33 and 45? I've never parked there before. Won't WIAA wrestling fans be parking there as well?

          On a similar "this is where the men's team stands in our priorities now" note:

          I'm told by my old college friends that the men's basketball coach position was just posted publicly, with applications due fairly soon. In all likelihood, the timing means that they're likely to simply hire Gard as the full-time basketball coach.

          And if I'm reading the tea leaves correctly, that means fewer distractions from doing what must be done to the men's hockey program.
          If you want to be a BADGER, just come along with me

          BRING BACK PAT RICHTER!!!


          At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."

          Canned music is a pathetic waste of your time.

            Potential good news there. Gard has certainly impressed. They're vastly improved from 2 months ago.

              Both head coach and assistant coach position posted yesterday with a March 3 application and a March 8 start date. As someone who has used that job board, that timeframe is unheard of. I've seen coaching jobs on that board for over a month. Fairly transparent way to officially hire Gard (and probably Howard Moore) yet stay in state job posting compliance.

              Big 10 women's basketball tournament starts next week. I'm guessing that there will be additional job postings starting around Monday, March 7.

                This map might help a little more. Shows which lots are paid and which are free.

                  Good. I mostly have no idea, as I almost always parked at the UW Health ramp and grabbed beers and a burger at Buckingham's before the game. (Mostly beers.)

                    There's also that lot behind LaBahn and the Kohl Center, which doesn't appear on those UW maps. I know people who park there for free for men's games.

                      The one just to the north of the rr tracks?

                      McGuire is playing D in place of Sexton, who is nicked up.

                        UW Badgers twitter account confirms that the band will be at LaBahn, at least for tonight.

                          Seems like he's always "nicked" up. Have to think his costly turnover last Saturday may have played a role as well.

                            Just south of the tracks. It connects to that building with the FedEx and Panera, and goes behind Nordic all the way to East Campus Mall, a little south of the tunnel.

                              They've been charging for that lot for women's games lately, so I switched to Lot 91.

                                Malone's goal was pretty sick.
