In the year you graduated from UW, what was the team's record, who was the coach and who were the star players. You can look it up on the UWbadger website. Check out page 106 to start. Real old-timers may have to go elsewhere.

I think it is important to do this so that the proper appreciation can be given to Bo Ryan and this year's Badgers.

For me, graduated in 1982

Team record: 6-21 (3-15) in Big Ten
Coached by Bill Cofield (his last season)

Leading scorer and starters were:

Brad "Slim" Sellers (eventually transferred to OSU)
Corey Blackwell (excellent UW career)
John Bailey (had like 3 classes with him...very nice guy)
Carl Golston (transferred to Loyola after one year)
Scott Mitchell (very, very poor man's Jared Berggren)

Note: Played youth basketball with Greg Dandridge
