The head coach was Bo Ryan, coaching his fifth season with the Badgers. The team played its home games at the Kohl Center in Madison, Wisconsin as a member of the Big Ten Conference. Season Notes This Wisconsin team began the season with a 14–2 record, including 4–0 in Big Ten play. The Badgers rose to No. 15 in the AP Poll and No. 13 in the Coaches Poll. They then went 5–8 over their final 13 regular-season games before losing in the first round of the Big Ten tournament and the NCAA tournament, finishing the season with a 19–12 record. The beginning of the end came in the 17th game of the season with a loss at Ohio State on January 18, 2006. This marked the first game Wisconsin played without freshman Marcus Landry and sophomore Greg Stiemsma, who were each ruled academically ineligible for the second semester. Then the next game, Wisconsin had their 27-game home non-conference winning streak snapped in a shocking upset, as North Dakota State won, 62–55, at the Kohl Center. It was an unfortunate blow as both Landry and Stiemsma had become key contributors. Juniors Alando Tucker and Kammron Taylor led the team in scoring, with 19.0 ppg and 14.2 ppg, respectively. Brian Butch stepped up as a sophomore to average 9.9 ppg.https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/schools/wisconsin/2006.html Wisconsin 2006 Sports-Reference.com Awards All-Big Ten by Mediahttp://www.bigten.org/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/030706aab.html Ohio State's Terence Dials Named Big Ten Player of the Year by Coaches And Media BigTen.org 2017-06-28 https://web.archive.org/web/20120729161930/http://www.bigten.org/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/030706aab.html 2012-07-29 dead Alando Tucker - 1st team Kammron Taylor - Honorable mention All-Big Ten by Coaches Alando Tucker - 1st team Kammron Taylor - Honorable mention Joe Krabbenhoft - All-Freshman team Roster 2005 Wisconsin Badgers y Marcus Landry 1 F 6 7 215 FR Milwaukee, WI y Mickey Perry 2 G 6 2 175 FR Maywood, IL n yes Ray Nixon 4 G/F 6 7 220 SR Milwaukee, WI y Jason Chappell 5 F/C 6 10 240 JR y New Berlin, WI n Devin Barry 10 G 6 1 175 FR Janesville, WI n W Tanner Bronson 14 G 5 11 160 SO Glendale, WI n Morris Cain 21 G/F 6 5 195 FR Glendale, WI n W Michael Flowers 22 G 6 2 185 SO Madison, WI n Kammron Taylor 23 G 6 2 175 JR Minneapolis, MN y Brian Butch 32 F/C 6 11 240 SO y Appleton, WI y DeAaron Williams 33 G/F 6 4 190 FR y Peoria, IL n Greg Stiemsma 34 F/C 6 11 245 SO Randolph, WI y Alando Tucker 42 F 6 6 210 JR y Lockport, IL y Kevin Gullikson 43 F 6 7 210 FR Stillwater, MN n W Joe Krabbenhoft 45 G/F 6 7 217 FR Sioux Falls, SD y Bo Ryan (Wilkes) Greg Gard (UW-Platteville) Gary Close (Arizona State) Howard Moore (Wisconsin) http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools/wis/sports/m-baskbl/auto_pdf/MBB_0506_roster.pdf 2014-1-5 Schedule no no |- !colspan=12| Regular Season 11/18/2005 7:30 pm yes yes Norfolk State Sports and Fitness Center St. Thomas, VI Paradise Jam tournament 81–51 1–0 11/19/2005 7:30 pm yes yes Eastern Kentucky Sports and Fitness Center St. Thomas, VI Paradise Jam Tournament 95–89 2–0 11/21/2005 7:30 pm yes yes Old Dominion Sports and Fitness Center St. Thomas, VI Paradise Jam Tournament FSN 84–81 3–0 11/26/2005 7:00 pm yes Coastal Carolina Kohl Center Madison, WI 92–54 4–0 11/29/2005 6:00 pm yes yes Wake Forest 22 LJVM Colisem Winston-Salem, NC ACC–Big Ten Challenge ESPN 88–91 4–1 12/03/2005 1:00 pm yes Pepperdine Kohl Center Madison, WI 71–55 5–1 12/07/2005 7:00 pm yes Green Bay Kohl Center Madison, WI ESPN 82–62 6–1 12/10/2005 12:00 pm yes Marquette Kohl Center Madison, WI ESPN+ 77–63 7–1 12/12/2005 7:00 pm yes UNC Wilmington Kohl Center Madison, WI WPT 54–51 8–1 12/15/2005 7:00 pm yes Milwaukee Kohl Center Madison, WI ESPN 74–68 9–1 12/28/2005 7:00 pm yes 24 Louisiana Tech Kohl Center Madison, WI WPT 78–52 10–1 12/31/2005 5:00 pm yes yes 24 Pittsburgh Petersen Events Center Pittsburgh, PA ESPN 64–73 10–2 1/05/2006 7:00 pm Iowa Kohl Center Madison, WI ESPN 66–52 11–2 (1–0) 1/08/2006 12:30 pm Michigan State 7 Kohl Center Madison, WI CBS 82–63 12–2 (2–0) 1/10/2006 6:00 pm yes 21 Minnesota Williams Arena Minneapolis, MN ESPN 64–62 13–2 (3–0) 1/14/2006 1:32 pm 21 Northwestern Kohl Center Madison, WI ESPN+ 68–52 14–2 (4–0) 1/18/2006 7:30 pm yes 15 Ohio State 19 Value City Arena Columbus, OH ESPN2 67–77 14–3 (4–1) 1/21/2006 11:15 am yes 15 North Dakota State Kohl Center Madison, WI 55–62 14–4 1/25/2006 7:00 pm 23 Penn State Kohl Center Madison, WI ESPN 72–43 15–4 (5–1) 1/28/2006 1:32 pm yes 23 Michigan Crisler Arena Ann Arbor, MI ESPN+ 76–85 15–5 (5–2) 1/31/2006 6:00 pm Illinois 6 Kohl Center Madison, WI ESPN 51–66 15–6 (5–3) 2/04/2006 7:00 pm yes Purdue Mackey Arena West Lafayette, IN ESPN 62–70 15–7 (5–4) 2/08/2006 6:00 pm Indiana 24 Kohl Center Madison, WI ESPN 72–54 16–7 (6–4) 2/11/2006 3:00 pm yes Penn State Bryce Jordan Center University Park, PA ESPN2 82–62 17–7 (7–4) 2/15/2006 7:00 pm Ohio State 12 Kohl Center Madison, WI ESPN 78–73 18–7 (8–4) 2/23/2006 8:00 pm yes Northwestern Welsh-Ryan Arena Evanston, IL ESPN2 51–62 18–8 (8–5) 2/26/2006 1:00 pm Minnesota Kohl Center Madison, WI ESPN 80–74 19–8 (9–5) 3/02/2006 6:00 pm yes Michigan State 25 Breslin Center East Lansing, MI ESPN 65–74 19–9 (9–6) 3/04/2006 3:40 pm yes Iowa Carver–Hawkeye Arena Iowa City, IA ESPN+ 44–59 19–10 (9–7) |- !colspan=12| Big Ten tournament 3/10/2006 1:30 pm yes Indiana Conseco Fieldhouse Indianapolis, IN Big Ten tournament – quarterfinals ESPN 56–61 19–11 |- !colspan=12| NCAA tournament 3/17/2006 11:30 am yes yes 9 Arizona 8 Wachovia Center Philadelphia, PA NCAA Tournament - First Round CBS 75–94 19–12 http://www.uwbadgers.com/sports/m-baskbl/archive/wis-m-baskbl-2005-06-sched.html Badgers 2005-06 Men's Basketball Schedule 2014-01-14 2014-01-16 https://web.archive.org/web/20140116120420/http://www.uwbadgers.com/sports/m-baskbl/archive/wis-m-baskbl-2005-06-sched.html dead References Category:Wisconsin Badgers men's basketball seasons Wisconsin Wisconsin Wisconsin Badgers men's b Wisconsin Badgers men's b
