Browns 'secretly interviewed' Andersen for head coaching job

Badgers football head coach Gary Andersen said he plans to stay at Wisconsin after admitting in a press release he was interviewed by the Cleveland Browns.

\"I am committed to the University of Wisconsin and the student-athletes in our program,\" Andersen said. \"I look forward to the start of spring football in a couple weeks and turning the focus to preparing for 2014.\"

Andersen ust finished his first season as WIsconsin's head coach, leading the Badgers to a 9-4 record and an appearance in the Capital One Bowl in Orlando, Florida.

The Browns have since filled the position, hiring Mike Pettine.
