MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Bo Ryan got rewarded today for the University of Wisconsin basketball team's record-breaking season that saw the team hold the Number One ranking for the first time in school history.
The University of Wisconsin System Board of Regents approved giving Ryan a $250,000 bonus, raising his total compensation package next year to $1,250,000.
Under Ryan this season, the team finished 30-6, held The Associated Press top ranking for one week, but exited from the NCAA tournament in the second round.
Ryan says he is thankful for the support from the administration.
