Man, that is really an odd quote. Not exactly enthusiastic.

Yes. Something you'd read on PR Newswire after a company renews a contract with a troubled vendor.

I would guess their top choice would be Travis Steele?

On the topic of Brad Stevens, I've seen Butler fans getting very annoyed with the whole "Butler Way" stuff as they recognize the "way" was a once-in-a-generation coach who had two NBA draft picks on his roster. They are worried the search will be limited to Butler grads or coaches with strong Butler ties.

The last time they didn't hire an alum or an assistant coach was 1977.

The AD said on a podcast that Matta was returning. It wasn't a "scoop" for Goodman or anybody else.

Stevens obviously brought the program to new heights, but they were a really good low/mid-major before he became head coach. In the 10 years before Stevens, they won 20+ games eight times, made six NCAA tournaments and advanced to the second weekend in two of them.
I imagine Butler fans would be thrilled with that kind of outcome these days.

They sure would, but they also are frustrated with the idea that only Butler grads or former Butler coaches should be considered. And, it was established during a time where they were the big dogs in their low/mid major conference. They aren't in the Horizon anymore.
