Key Quote: The first official practice in front of about 8,000 fans and about two dozen former Hoosiers players paled in comparison to Crean's carefully crafted show.
He played a lengthy video that revved up the crowd with some unusual antics -- players flipping tires over and over down a football field, running while tied together on a rope, throwing heavy balls and breaking boards with karate punches. He had women dancing in grass skirts and leis while 7-foot center Tijan Jobe was carried, by his teammates, on a surfboard to midcourt.
