Badger assistant basketball coach Greg Gard joined the Mike Heller Show on Tuesday to discuss the Badgers' upcoming game at Ohio State.


Gard discussed what the Badger Coaches are doing to try and improve the team's shooting.  "Bo has said this several time that you can't yell guys into shooting better. We have mixed in some different drills and some different contests.  I think the biggest thing is to stay consistent and not make across the board monumental changes to what we are doing.  Keep working to get guy's confidence going."


Gard said that the schedule in the Big Ten can really wear on teams because of the talent. "You have very few get well games, not that you look by anybody, but you know that you didn't play maybe at your best, and were still have a chance to be successful. Now it's every night. Does the constant night in and night out of having to play at such an extremely high level every night, is it going to take its toll on team and start to wear teams down?"

Gard also talked about the status of Frank Kaminsky.  "I would assume he should get some minutes."
