Good luck to Stevens as he'll need it with these Celtics. He'll make a boatload of money, but lowly NBA teams are not kind to college coaches new to the NBA. A tough blow for Butler and the BE.
Did...Not...See...That...Coming.
Blow to the new Big East as we need identifiable coaches to build the brand. Well, at least his last loss at Butler was to Marquette.
90% of quotes on the internet are wrong.

Matt Graves taking over?
Tough time for the program considering they are joining a new conference, the freshman are just arriving and AAU/summer camps start up next week.
He will make a boatload of money and if he fails he can always come back to college (ie Pitino and Cal)........never saw him as an NBA kind of guy but the Celtics job has always been a good one even if they are rebuilding now
Thought he was waiting out for Duke. Huge shocker.
Stunned. Wow.
Next Butler coach? Tim Buckley? Greg Gard? Ben Jacobson? Others?
Ironically, if it wasn't for an MU alum leaving his coaching post with the Celts...
