Video: Tom Crean hosts special guest at postgame press conference

After Indiana beat Minnesota on Sunday night, Indiana coach Tom Crean met with reporters as he usually does. But this time he had a special friend attend the session with him. Bloomington native Brian Jones is an Indiana Hoosiers basketball fan and suffers from ALS. He is on a ventilator and in hospice care.

"Brian Jones is a model of perseverance," Crean told the room.

Crean visited Jones a few weeks ago and spoke about how much Jones inspires him.

Watch it all in the video in this post.

Indiana beat Minnesota, 90-71, behind a school-record 18 3-pointers, including six by James Blackmon Jr.
