Former Butler head coach Brad Stevens, who helped to guide the team to two consecutive NCAA Championship games (2010, 2011) made his second and final visit of the season back to Indiana — in his second second as the leader of the Boston Celtics.
As always, it’s special to be home. How could it not be? (He grew up in Zionsville.) Only this time he won’t even be in town 24 hours. Friday night, they beat Orlando at home and then set off to Indy. After the game, they’ll head right back home to Boston.
“Like everyone else, I’ll be watching with a keen eye tomorrow to see where the Bulldogs go,” Stevens said, referring to Selection Sunday. “I can’t wait to see them back in the tournament. That’ll be a blast.”
Watch below as coach Stevens touched on his anticipation for Selection Sunday (tomorrow), the job current Butler coach Chris Holtmann is doing, and what he misses most about the college level.
