Admittedly, it’s just a handshake. For all we know, the two coaches could have exchanged pleasantries before the game or after it, when the cameras weren’t around.
That said, it’s not every day you see a handshake as quick as that one. Plus, it got basketball fans’ attention.
Bo Ryan and Tom Crean have had what you'd call a spirited rivalry dating to Crean's days at Marquette. But it's been all Bo lately.—

Winner for the quickest post game handshake in history goes to…Tom Crean. Wow, he was in a hurry to get off the court.—

Apparently Tom Crean has been talking to his brother-in-law Jim Harbaugh about postgame handshakes.—

Tom Crean didn't break stride on that handshake with Bo Ryan. Didn't break stride pacing, either. Team outplayed, vulnerable. Keep pacing—

The two won’t meet again this season, unless Indiana and Wisconsin face off in the Big Ten tourney or NCAA tourney.

Crean is a sore loser. Just listen to his post-game presser.
Post game interview with Bo revealed he had the flu, maybe that explains the quick shake.
Face it, Crean is a sore loser
Andy, that has to be one of the dumbest things I’ve heard in a long time, especially considering this isn’t even close to the first time it’s happened.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!
Clappy wasn’t too clappy. WEay to go Bo!
Crean is owned by Bo, he hates it, it’s that simple.
There have been quicker ones. Why is this a story???
Didn’t seem that bad to me, he shook hands with 3 coaches and they were all quick. Did you expect Crean to give the guy a hug and chat him up for 5 minutes?
Not a first, he did the same thing with Thad Matta 2 years ago.
Well Clappy doesn’t like Bo Jangles cause Bo is still trying to spoon his commits away much like he did during Clappy’s years at Marquette. Just ask Luke Fishers Dad. Bo knows…
I sure hope that we get another shot at them in the Big Ten tourney. What a miserable outing that was for the Hoosiers.
By the way, experience didn’t hurt the Badgers either, who start three “5th year” seniors…..
Marquette (an Crean) did not face Bo in Crean’s first 2 seasons.
I like that Crean is a sore loser. So am I. It shows how much he cares..
He’s one of the most intense men alive.
Hopefully he will lead Indiana back to where they belong.
