Athletic Director Barry Alvarez and head coaches Greg Gard and Paul Cryst will all be making less money over the next several months as the Wisconsin athletics department tries to cut costs during the COVID-19 pandemic.
According to the Wisconsin State Journal, top athletic department officials will see their pay cut by 15% over the next six months while 350 other employees could see their hours cut by as much as 50 percent as a part of a state workforce department program. Those employees would be able to apply for unemployment benefits as they have to stay in the program until at least late July.
