It appears the University of Wisconsin’s Barry Alvarez, Paul Chryst and Greg Gard are going to have to take one for the team.
The UW athletic department is implementing a “compensation and work reduction plan” in an effort to offset the losses brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, a move that includes voluntary pay cuts for top-earning personnel such as Alvarez, the athletic director; Chryst, the head football coach; and Gard, the head men’s basketball coach.
