Tom Crean and Yogi Ferrell met with the media following Friday’s Hoosier Hysteria at Assembly Hall. Watch and listen to their reaction in the embedded media players below:

Wednesday night, Indiana coach Tom Crean gave his annual "State of the Hoosier Nation" address to an assembled crowd of about 500 people at the IU Auditorium. During the speech, he spoke in depth about this season's roster, and selected thoughts about each player are gathered below: Will Sheehey "Will Sheehey has had an up-and-down offseason because he has had a couple different injuries. He's still coming back, but he had his first full practice yesterday. He's still trying to come back from a groin injury and put himself in position. Today was a Will Sheehey level practice. The leadership was strong. He was very active. Will Sheehey is one of the most gifted, smartest players that I've ever been around in my entire life. Will Sheehey is the kind of person that he understands what it takes. He understands how to win. He understands what's going on on the floor. He's a tremendous teacher for somebody that's his age of helping his teammates." Evan Gordon "He's got to come in here and he's got to see his game go to another level. He's got to see his game rise on both sides of the court — offensively and defensively — and see that leadership rise. He's got to get out of whatever comfort zone has been acceptable for him — because he works hard, now — and step above and beyond that. He's got to bring a pitbull, junkyard dog mentality daily. He's got to take people with him. And that's one of the biggest things that will show: is he going to have that kind of year? Here's a guy that's a great young man. He works hard, comes from a great family, spends a lot of time at the game. But he can do more."
