Wanting a foul called, Colorado head coach Jeff Bzdelik holds his hands on his head during overtime.

Winston-Salem N.C. ? Jeff Bzdelik is taking over Wake Forest’s program from a coach who was fired despite going 30 games over .500 at the school.

“I embrace the challenges,” he said.

Wake Forest ended its weeklong search for Dino Gaudio’s replacement Wednesday with Bzdelik’s introduction as coach.
