Justin Wilcox is officially leaving Madison after one year.

On Saturday night, Cal made the announcement that it was hiring the Wisconsin defensive coordinator as its new head coach:

This will be Wilcox’s first head coaching job. He was a defensive coordinator for five different teams, the last of which was Wisconsin. He was rumored to be the top choice all week after a banner season in Madison.

The Badgers finished 2016 with the No. 4 defense, despite the fact that they had key injuries on the defensive end and faced a brutal schedule.

Wilcox’s departure will leave an opening on the Wisconsin defense for the second straight year. Last year, the Badgers lost Dave Aranda to the same position at LSU.

It remains to be seen who the Badgers will turn to this time.
