After graduating in 1999, Stevens joined the pharmaceutical company Eli Lilly and Company but quit his job after he received an offer to volunteer in the Butler basketball office. He was also hired as the coordinator of basketball operations under coach Thad Matta. While the job was low-paying, it helped Brad learn more about the coaching profession.

In his first few years with the Butlers, Stevens' salary was $395K per year plus added benefits. He reportedly pocketed $750K after the 2009-10 season and was re-signed by the college.

Since he managed to generate great results from the Butlers, Stevens was pursued by many other universities for the head coach position.
