Title: Celtics believe Butler's coach better than Self, hire him don't even offer Self

I fell horrible for Butler.  First year in the Big East is coming up, and they lose the winningest coach in America for the first 6 years on the job.  Those people have to be sad.

Also, LOL at Danny Ainge basically saying Bill Self is a horrible adulterer.  Read between these lines:

The silver lining here is that now that everyone knows that bill is basically unhireable as an NBA coach, he will most likely continue cheating on his wife with coeds, ruining bb careers, and coaching at KU for the rest of his career.

Jeff Goodman was on SVP show today talking about Brad. He started listing coaches who have a good head on their shoulders (Brad Stevens, Tom Izzo, etc.) Then when he got to Bill Self he prefaced it with "to a lesser extent Bill Self"

Clearly Jeff sees that Bill looks good in front of cameras but is a monster behind the scenes.

Can confirm.  Was told that he was made to go through some pretty unsettling situationional hypotheticals too, even though they had zero intention of hiring him from the start. 

Pretty revealing stuff, supposedly.  Evidently, the Celts ppl started this to entertain himself(have never liked bill as a coach option and view him as small timey due to inability to work with actual NBA talent) and ended up somewhat sickened.  Supposedly there were liability concerns as well.

Bill Self is a great coach.  But, it has to get really, really old for him to coach against the worst collection of D1 coaches around. 

I think Bill could win anywhere. Not much more to accomplish at KU.  Combine that with his family issues, and you got a guy who is looking for something different. I am guessing that's why he chose to put out that out there.

He's great, I hope he takes over a high profile NBA team so we can see him on TV as much as possible.  OKC would be a good job, but I bet he is the next coach of the Spurs.

Pete, I say we do what we can to keep Self in the conf.  I think he needs additional challenges and money to stay, though.  I think we should allow him to coach two teams at a time to provide this.  I would recommend KU and one of the shitty Texas schools like TCU or Tech.  Full responsibility for coaching, scheduling, recruiting, filly slaying, etc.  Thoughts?

Bill knows that most college guys that jump to the pros don't get very good jobs - Brad Stevens in Boston is typical of the rebuilding jobs they usually get.  HOWEVER, if Scott Brooks doesn't get to at least the Western conference finals the people in OKC next season there could be a dream situation for Bill;  Get to "go home" and coach one of the 5 best players in the league.

I didn't particularly enjoy the comments, and I'm surprised Bill would make them.  Usually a question like that gets a canned response.... "I'm only focused on the job I've got," "I have no plans to coach in the NBA at this time," etc.  On the other hand, if he really wanted to get into the NBA, I don't see why he would use the media to broadcast smoke signals.  He's got plenty of back-channels to go through, were he to choose that route.  Still, you would imagine that Bill would be aware of the anxiety his comments would cause for a lot of the KU faithful, so I wonder what the purpose is?  It's not like he's getting ready to renegotiate his contract.  This, and other remarks in the recent past, make one go, "Hmmmmmmmm."

the  spurs  job he could get thru back channels;   he likely does not have that kind of relationship with  Presti and may be doing a little "seeding" of  the public.

 don't forget that LB is Bills mentor

Thank you for proving my point.  As such, you don't think Bill would have access to any back channels he would seek?

Pete, I say we do what we can to keep Self in the conf.  I think he needs additional challenges and money to stay, though.  I think we should allow him to coach two teams at a time to provide this.  I would recommend KU and one of the shitty Texas schools like TCU or Tech.  Full responsibility for coaching, scheduling, recruiting, filly slaying, etc.  Thoughts?

  :thumbs:   This is the ultimate in thinking outside the box.

KU fans don't appreciate coach self at all.  They don't realize that they hit the rough ridin' 700 million dollar coach powerball, and place most of his success on "ku tradition".  Who wouldn't want to get away from fans like that?

You're better than that bill, don't let them ignore you any longer.

I don't feel like responding to this, but it is posts like this that make me think, "God Bless Tim."  Tim will come along to be the yin to your yang.

NBA pussy >>> college pussy

I think the secretary and realtor circuit that Self has allegedly worked would be comparable to what he'd be getting in San Antonio.  Plus, college enrollment, theoretically, turns over every 4 years, bringing in lots of new talent.  I'd think that preying on college women would offer more variety than city women.

San Antonio has many, many more women than LWK. Bill would be victimized by decisional paralysis. He would simply lock up.

How long will he coach?: Self was asked by radio-talk-show host Jim Rome on Wednesday if he wants to coach as long as possible or perhaps walk away from the game at some point.


“I’ve thought about it. I thought about it when I got involved in coaching how long I’d want to do this. I respect so many, whether it be Bo (Ryan, who just retired at Wisconsin), or coach Boeheim (Jim, Syracuse) or Krzyzewski (Mike, Duke) or Williams (Roy, North Carolina) or whoever has been in this business for so long. I don’t think I’ll do that,” Self, 52, said.


“I know certainly I want to be able to fulfill my contract (through 2021-22 season) and maybe go beyond that, but I’m not going to be a lifer. I can’t see that right now. Now if I havc no hobbies and no other interests and certainly I need something to keep me busy ... that would be something if my motor is still running.


“To compete at the highest level for so long in any profession, it wears on you after time. I don’t think I’d want to do this unless I felt I could give the energy and be as good as I could be because there’s young guys coming up behind you trying to knock you off your perch or beat your butt without question. As long as I have the energy level I will do it and I’ll love to do it. As soon as I lose that, I can’t see staying in.”

To think he was one lucky (cough refs) run in the NCAA tournament away from being fired for losing to too many mid majors.

Just as true today as it was then. You deserve better, Bill.
