I'm not sure if it's my comment you're referring to or not; but as tends to be the case with teams other than our own, the highs seem to get remembered while the lows get missed.

Wisconsin's record by opponent since Bielema left:

Ohio St. 0-4
Michigan 2-2 (we're 2-1 in the same timeframe)
Penn St. 0-3
Michigan St. 1-0 (we're 2-1 in the same timeframe)

They're also just 3-3 against Northwestern in that time and have lost seven games to unranked teams in seven seasons.

I understand the appeal of Chryst or other coaches from Wisconsin. They run a system far better suited to our recruiting base than we do. They also have achieved similar levels of success as we have with less highly regarded recruits. It's important to consider all the facts when considering coaches though, and I don't think that is being done by those championing Wisconsin.
