Wisconsin athletic director Barry Alvarez has received some huge praise for his skills as a leader.

Stadium released its rankings for the best ADs in America, and the man running the Badgers came in at number three. Only Oklahoma’s Joe Castiglione and Ohio State’s Gene Smith were ahead of him. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

It’s hard to argue with Alvarez being a top three AD, and I honestly think you could argue that he’s the best in America.

Find me a program that’s better at basketball and football than Wisconsin. There are programs with better individual teams, but there’s nobody in America as good as both.

The only two sports that truly matter in college athletics are men’s basketball and football. Everything else is just a sideshow.

Men’s basketball and football are the driving forces in college sports, and Wisconsin dominates at both of them.

Alvarez plays a huge role in Wisconsin’s success, and you’d have to be a moron to think differently. All we do is win!

Now, we’re entering 2020 with title hopes in football and basketball. It’s just another normal year in Wisconsin athletics!

If we ever enter a season without huge expectations, then things have gone horribly wrong.

Life sure is a hell of a fun ride when you’re a Wisconsin man. That much is for sure, and Alvarez’s role can’t be overlooked in that fact.
