In one of the first shocking moves of the college football season, the Wisconsin Badgers decided to move on from long-time head coach Paul Chryst. With plenty of worthy candidates already being linked to the open position, it makes sense that this could very well be the most intriguing job that needs to be filled.<\/p>\n

Chryst is a prototypical coach for the Wisconsin program, having played for them back in the day. He made his way through the coaching ranks, including being the head coach at the University of Pittsburgh, a role he had until the Badgers came calling to bring him home. Firing a coach with that kind of record is quite surprising, especially for a school like Wisconsin that enjoys consistency sometimes more than winning.<\/p>\n

The impact that Chryst has made on the football program expands beyond on-field results, as many current and former Badger players have spoken about their support for Chryst and how he helped turn them into better people and players.<\/p>\n

An amicable separation looks to be best for both Chryst and the program, and now the Badgers get to make an exciting decision as to whom will lead their football program.<\/p>\n

For Athletic Director Chris McIntosh, this is his first big move after having taken over in his current role, and the following three candidates should be on his shortlist for the next HC. Currently serving as the head coach for the Iowa State Cyclones, Matt Campbell has ties to the Badgers, dating back to being tied to their head coaching vacancy. At the time, Campbell was the head coach at Toledo and had turned the program around, and according to reports, was seriously being considered for the role at that point in time.<\/p>\n

Flash forward 10 years, and Campbell has enjoyed a solid amount of success leading the Cyclones \u2014 producing an record across seven-plus seasons, including five consecutive winning records and bowl appearances. Campbell may not be the sexy hire that earns all of the headlines, but that makes him the perfect solution for the Badgers. The first of two coaching candidates with ties to the state of Wisconsin, Lance Leipold is one of the most polarizing head coaches in the NCAA and has resurrected the Kansas Jayhawks from the college football graveyard.<\/p>\n

Known for being strictly a basketball school with a terrible football team, Leipold has led a miraculous recovery of this team in less than two full seasons.<\/p>\n

While his first year record was more of the same struggles for the Jayhawks, Leipold has Kansas undefeated through its first five games and ranked 19th in the country.<\/p>\n

From there, he made the massive jump from D3 to D1, taking over Buffalo and leading the Bulls to three consecutive winning seasons, the first time in 20 years. As a Wisconsin native, Leipold is still highly regarded in the state and certainly would be given the red-carpet treatment if welcomed back to lead a resurgence with the Badgers. Choosing the hometown kid certainly would rank strongly with both the fan base and boosters, and Leipold checks plenty of boxes.<\/p>\n

Currently, defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard is taking on the interim head coaching role for the Badgers, a role that many Badgers fans are likely hoping does not include the interim tag. Having been both a player and assistant coach for Wisconsin, Leonhard looks to be the clubhouse favorite for the full-time role, and for good reason. After his NFL career ended, Leonhard eventually made his way back to the Badgers, joining their defensive coaching staff.<\/p>\n

Having passed on many opportunities to leave for more money and better opportunities, including being offered the defensive coordinator position for the Green Bay Packers, Leonhard finally gets a chance to see his waiting game come to fruition. Giving Leonhard a shot at the big gig is a home-run decision for McIntosh and the Athletic Department \u2014 if Leonhard does not pan out during his extended job interview, then back to the drawing board; but if he does pan out, he can have the interim tag removed, fulfilling an outcome that many fans of the program have wanted for a very, very long time.<\/p>\n
