Yet this opens positions for up-and-comers who want to teach and research at a major U and have the confidence to be employed and compensated upon performance

Except that I believe the legislature is working on legislation doubling the number hours a professor is expected to teach. So those wanting to do research won't be looking at Wisconsin.

Not so sure: I saw some studies that tenured faculty taught more hours in the 1960’s than they do now, even at research universities.

Doubling zero hours is still zero.
