Tom Crean, head coach of the men’s basketball team at Indiana took some ribbing from all sorts of people when he dropped a piece of gum out of his mouth, picked it off the floor and started checking it again. The coach took to Twitter to clear the air in a very hilarious fashion.
The gum I dropped tonight was a fresh piece of Dentyne Ice. No 5 second rule was in effect.
