Colts GM, NBA All-Star headline Wisconsin's AD search committee

[ASFN Admin]

In total, the Wisconsin Badgers established a nine-person search committee to help find their next athletic director.

Eric Wilcots, the Badgers' incoming interim chancellor, is leading the search process.

Remember, Marcus Sedberry is serving as Wisconsin's interim athletic director.

Lauren Bishop is chairing the search committee, one that is headlined by Indianapolis Colts general manager Chris Ballard.

Ballard is one of, if not the most notable name involved in the process, but Badgers fans can't look past two-time NBA All-Star Michael Finley.

To no surprise, those two names are heavily involved in the process as both are former Badgers themselves. Ballard, a former Wisconsin football player, graduated in 1993. As for Finley, he played for the Badgers from 1991-95.

The rest of the search committee is as follows:

• Rob Cramer
• Meghan Duggan
• Elzie Higginbottom
• Marija Pientka
• Michael Shannon
• William Smith
