REMEMBER THESE BIG DUDES?
There's an easy storyline ripe for the picking when discussing Tom Crean's Hoosiers matching up against Dave Rice's Rebels. Indiana was heavily involved in the recruitment of UNLV big men Stephen Zimmerman and Goodluck Okonoboh. Tom Crean's staff fell out of favor seemingly with both, of course, and Zimmernan's recruitment wasn't without some weird drama, too.
