Greg Gard announced today some major changes on his coaching staff, with a big loss but also a big addition. It's truly a bittersweet announcement coming out of Wisconsin basketball as Kirk Penney has announced he is headed back to New Zealand to spend more time with his family, but Gard was able to replace him with a Wisconsin legend in Brad Davison.
Kirk Penney played an important role for Wisconsin, but is most notably known for being the mastermind in the evolution of the Wisconsin offense. The reason the Badgers run the offense they do is largely thanks to Penney.
