Hypothetical Coaching Search

Beems, 810 was saying last week that Bill would have to coach you guys for another 10 yrs and avg 30 wins/season to do that.  Both of which seem unlikely given that his current avg over the last 10 yrs is under that 30 game mark, and that most coaches don't do anything anywhere for 20yrs at a time.

Who knows, but I would say the odds aren't in his favor.

His average over the last ten years is actually 30.1 wins.  It is right on that cusp.

Haven't looked myself, but 810 was saying it was like 28.something.

Both in the same neighborhood.  I have included this year, at this point in time, they may not have.

Can confirm 30.1 average but they played like 55 games in 07-08 so it's a little skewed

Either way, it seems crazy that Bill would have to do another 10 yrs of equal or greather than Bill to get to that milestone.

Butler's Brad Stevens to Celtics

Butler's Brad Stevens to Celtics 

Damn, that's pretty baller for both.

[CNS]

Wow.  Didn't see that coming.  Figured Brad was a college guy.  Good for him.

if I'm Stevens I don't touch the celtics gig, but I'm not and he did

He'll make more money than any college gig, and he'll be able to go to a high-high major and be a better recruiter than before if he decides to return to college. Great move for him. Great for the Celtics because they're thinking outside the box and didn't just hire someone like Vinny Del Negro or Flip Saunders.

i believe he currently had his pick of college jobs.

mostly tho, my comment is a reflection of my feelings towards celtics management and my opinion of the franchise as a whole.

yeah, but he'll be making more than he would at any of those college jobs. he'll get to fly on chartered jets and stay in five star hotels and eat caviar and crap for a couple years.

And yeah, the gm is way more important than a coach.

Finally they announce it.  I've seen this coming from miles away.

i'm sure you did. also, does Self leave for Butler?!?

LOL, I hope you're joking.  Self & Wiggins will be a package deal to San Antonio after next season, when Pop & Duncan retire.

I don't think that the Spurs will be picking anywhere near the top of the first round. Are you implying that Wiggins will be a five-star bum?

I talked to "one of my guys" and they told me they've already been in contact with each other

Just watch what happens  These manoeuvres are on a level beyond your understanding.

Bill Self is looking for a "challenge" but mostly to get away from his wife and his girlfriend.  Apparently they are filming a new episode of Cheaters ^TM in Lawrence and it is time to get the hell out of there.

The Celtics are owned by a man who is an EMAW and a KSU DU and personal friend of dlew's dad. Did everyone know that?

my dad actually recruited him to DU.  much like i recruited Csourk.  however, my dad did not use KSUFans PM system to begin the recruitment (as far as i know).

Pretty much what Michigancat said. If Brad fails at the NBA level, he can still fall to the high major college level. If he jumps to the high major college level and fails, well what's left besides Butler-like schools? Smart move by him.

Also it's no secret that Self wants to return to OSU. I have heard from 2 sources that he has said, without a doubt, he will coach there at some point. As Bilas (I think? maybe Gottlieb or Parish) said, he'll go to the NBA at some point and come back to OSU. Spurs makes the most sense.
