Title: Does Brad Stevens suffer from an extreme lack of self esteem?
Post by: Emo EMAW on November 20, 2012, 08:38:45 PM
I mean why the he'll hasn't he gone on to bigger and better?  Maybe he doesn't think he could win more games with much better players?

Maybe he has waaaayyyyy too much self esteem and thinks that it doesn't matter where he coaches, that he is Brad MF Stevens and he will build a monster anywhere he decides and when he decides?

you don't think someone has offered to double his salary?

I'm sure it's happened endksu, but why won't he accept?  I mean if a straight shooting cattle baron offered to double my herd if I grazed his pasture I'd accept if I didn't think it was a euphemism from a gay straight shooting cattle baron.

Butler has major dirt on him. He can't leave or else it hits the 'tubes and he is ruined.

Whatever, this Stevens is only doing good and stuff cuz of all the top recruits he gets.

No offense.
None taken. I would propose more of a battle royale situ where we all fight each other to the death. Sort of like the Hunger Games mixed with thunderdome, but more like thunderdome. The winner chooses who our head coach will be. When I win, I choose Brad Stevens. Mainly because he looks like he knows what he'd doing, particularly when wearing glasses. Smart people wear glasses. Cept Shaka Smart. But you don't have to when you're literally named "Smart".

Did you see him as the lead yesterday melted from something like 26 pts down to 6 pts in a couple minutes at the end of the game?  The cam kept going to him like they wanted some frustrated meltdown shot, and Brad no-denied them repeatedly.  Cool as a cucumber.  Like he was watching game film.

Cold blooded, genius, and young enough to set fire to all coaching records if he went somewhere elite right now.

Post by: CNS on November 21, 2012, 10:34:17 AM
Yeah, he isn't getting Indiana anytime soon. 

Kinda surprised he didn't go UConn.  He must have one or two jobs targeted and simply is happy to stay at Butler until those one or two jobs become avail.  Which is stupid.  I mean, if he could be making twice the salary and building his rep even more elsewhere in the mean time until those couple perfect jobs open up, take them, build the rep and earn the money.

The risk of doing so and losing is less than staying at butler, not making the tourney a couple years in a row, and being written of as not being the coach everyone thought.

I think he is waiting for coach K to retire. Duke seems like a good fit for him
Title: Re: Does Brad Stevens suffer from an extreme lack of self esteem?
Post by: CNS on November 21, 2012, 11:08:05 AM
I agree about Duke, but the guy could be coaching at Illinois or UConn right now, getting higher rated athletes, playing on a bigger stage, and if he is the coach ppl think he is, accomplishing more all while making more money.  Then, you know what, when Coach K retires, he can still go to Duke but can do so after making $10M(over a contract) more, getting better recruiting ties, and coaching against better talent weekly than he will while at Butler.

He's chaste CNS Casey.  He's not gonna whore himself out to the likes of UConn or Illinois.  Definitely a fancy private school guy forevs.  I could certainly see Duke, but also maybe a Stanford.  Wouldn't even be shocked with a Notre Dame.  He is an Indiana guy afterall.

He's so elite he can't even be bothered with what we think is stupid.  He's too busy floating around on his silver dust cloud of eliteness, high high above the pud soup we're drowning in.  "Sorry tiny little dots I can barely see due to extreme heights that I still know to be puds, I can't hear your silly pud criticisms of my decisions, which can never be wrong."  Yeah, we know Brad, we know.  CNS Casey knows too.  Brad: "What's a CNS Casey?"  Yep.

Here's a picture of Brad and his wife.  So yes, I would say he suffers from an extreme lack of self esteem.
