Butler Bulldogs Men's Basketball History

The Butler University Bulldogs men’s basketball team played their first season in 1896 and competed in various mid-major conferences such as the Missouri Valley Conference and the Horizon League before joining the Big East in 2013. Along with seven conference tournament championships between 1997 and 2011, the Indianapolis-based program has appeared in 16 NCAA tournaments with the Bulldogs making it to the Sweet Sixteen on their first go in 1962. 

The team returned to prominence in the mid-’90s under head coach Barry Collier, who guided the Bulldogs to their second NCAA tournament berth in 1997. Coach Brad Stevens led the Bulldogs to five consecutive March Madness appearances between 2007 and 2011, including the team’s historic back-to-back advancements to the National Championship game in 2010 and 2011. The Bulldogs have since made it to “The Big Dance” five times in 2013 and every year between 2015 to 2018. Additionally, Butler has participated in 10 National Invitation Tournaments, including recent appearances in 2019 and 2024.

Butler has served as the home court for two members of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame: Harlan Page, the team’s head coach of six years starting in 1920, and Tony Hinkle, Page’s successor who coached Butler from 1926 to 1942 and 1945 to 1970. Notable alumni players include NBA All-Star Gordon Hayward, Kelan Martin and Shelvin Mack.

Butler Bulldogs at Hinkle Fieldhouse

Hinkle Fieldhouse, the home court of the Butler Bulldogs in Indianapolis, has earned its nickname as “Indiana's Basketball Cathedral” with a long, celebrated history that’s also led to its designation as a National Historic Landmark. It is also famously the backdrop to the championship game in the 1986 movie Hoosiers. Opening in 1928 as Butler Fieldhouse, the facility was the country’s largest basketball arena until 1950. It was renamed in 1966 in honor of the Bulldogs’ head coach Tony Hinkle. While Butler was a member of the Horizon League, Hinkle Fieldhouse hosted several conference tournaments, including the Bulldogs’ championship win in 2010. In 2021, the arena held several semifinal matches in the NCAA men’s basketball tournament.

  • Great. They WON!

    by Jack on 1/18/25Hinkle Fieldhouse - IndianapolisRating: 5 out of 5

    Entry to the stadium was smooth (no line). That was nice because of the cold temp outside.

  • Fun

    My husband and I went as part of a Christmas gift. We had a great time. We felt like parking, security, & concessions were all well-organized.

  • SeatCheats

    by BTS76 on 1/16/24Hinkle Fieldhouse - IndianapolisRating: 4 out of 5

    Everything was fine, but this is the second time we’ve sat in these seats and the guy next to us sneaks 2 more people to sit with him which overcrowds the seating area - He knows he’s doing it, he knows I know he’s doing it…and that annoys me

    I was in town for business and on a whim grabbed tickets. The atmosphere was great even with the students on break. I look forward to going back when the students are there.

  • UCONN in Indy

    by TPools on 1/24/22Hinkle Fieldhouse - IndianapolisRating: 5 out of 5

    We were visiting Indy and found out UCONN was playing Butler and managed to buy 2 tickets. Hinkle Fieldhouse is a great place to watch a game. The history and the architecture make it a special place and the Huskies won.

    Attending any function in Historic Hinkle Fieldhouse is a memorable experience

  • Lack of leadership

    by Groumpy on 2/3/17Hinkle Fieldhouse - IndianapolisRating: 4 out of 5

    The Bulldogs are floundering due to a lack of leadership. Andrew Chrabascz is a sound player but he is not the vocal leader on the floor. Defenses have caught up to some of his moves. Team defense on Tuesday was abysmal. Creighton had to many easy buckets inside. There were unconscious shooting three pointers They had too many big men for us to be able to get open shots. Butler will rebound from these losses. Good coaching will find some answers..

  • The attmosphere was amazing
