Butler

Post by Pony_Fan »

What a great "team" effort. I really like the way they play ball. Amazing a Horizon League team can get to the Final Four.

This coach Brad Stevens will get snatched up in a hurry. He's only like 33.

Sure would be nice if we had our sh*t together

In the tournament, I think you see that the big teams have great athletes and incredible players, while the mid-major/small teams are well coached and play as a team.

We have neither of these attributes.

Depauw the d-3 school in greencastle indiana is still doing its thing. Not to be confused with depaul in chicago who never really got over ray meyer passing away. Ruined patkennedy's career.

Didn't Wilson Chandler go there? I don't know what kind of college player he was, but he's pretty good for the Knicks.

So did Rod Strickland, Mark Aguirre and Terry Cummings.
Btw, don't be surprised if Strickland gets a HC job in a few years.

I'm sure the question has been asked and discussed repeatedly on this board of late, but can anyone tell me how DOH's salary compares with that of coaches who took teams to the NCAA or NIT, including that of the Butler coach?
