INDIANA UNIVERSITY BASKETBALL MEDIA CONFERENCEĬOACH CREAN: We've had a productive week hopefully in the sense we've been able to get some rest and get energized. At the same time the most important thing is they had the proper energy to fulfill everything they needed to do academically this week. Obviously a huge week with finals, as have the last couple of weeks been, especially last week.
