It's right there at the end,  when he talks about Bielemma.  He notes that Barry Alvarez's legacy rides on his next coaching pick.
The problem is that despite it's stampeding herd ambience, the college football coaching-switch season is already coming to a close.  It's possible that the coach they needed has already committed elsewhere.  Or not.  But last time Alvarez hired a guy he had worked beside and knew intimately (compared to most coaching searches).  But beyond the usual musical chairs shuffling and elimination there are practical reasons for getting the new coach in place as soon as possible, recruiting and spring practice being the good ones,  getting the right coach before someone else hires him, is paramount.

Alvarez coaching the Rose Bowl kind of indicates he already has someone already on staff in mind,  but why not get him in place so that recruits know who they'd be playing for?  Is it possible Alvarez still feels he needs more due dilligence to feel comfortable with a promotion from the current coaches?  If so, what will a few weeks reveal that the past years haven't?

Alvarez said he will not use a search committee to vet candidates.

"I won't use a search committee," he said. "Most search committees use me."

Rick Pizzo from the BTN has been tweeting some good stuff on Alvarez

Rick Pizzo @BTNRickPizzo
Interesting:#Badgers source-who has been VERY informative-tells me he has NO IDEA who's next on UW list.Says search will be done on the hush

Rick Pizzo @BTNRickPizzo
In other words,don't expect #Badgerssearch to resemble the clown shows currently being shown in Knoxville and Boulder.

I wouldn't say that Melvin Gordon came out of nowhere.  Before the season started many Badger fans thought he was the second best running back on the team.  He only redshirted in 2011 because of injury, he was ready to play as a true freshman.
