A follow-up to an earlier note: The Badgers will be staying at a hotel during the Midwest Regional.
"We talked to the guys, and we talked as a staff -- just get them away from the dorms for the young guys so they don't have that," UW coach Mike Eaves said. "There was the ongoing question about being all together and sleeping in your own bed. It just seemed that more straws fell on the side of going to the hotel, so that's what we decided to do."
