Bo Ryan Retiring After the Season

Monday’s major news in college hoops is simply this: Bo Ryan is likely entering his final season as Wisconsin’s coach.

Ryan released a statement that revealed he openly debated retiring this past spring, but after discussions with his athletic director, he took some time to think it over. He’s opting for one more season on the bench in Madison, and after that, his hope is that the program will do what Syracuse just formally announced: name a current assistant as its coach-in-waiting.

That coach would be Greg Gard, Ryan’s longtime assistant.
