A few of these made it into today's IDS, but I thought I'd share some interesting stats I compiled on IU's exhibition game history in the Tom Crean era.

-IU is 6-0

-IU is averaging 88.83 points per exhibition game compared to 65.68 points per regular season game

-IU's opposing teams are averaging 61.66 points per exhibition game compared to 70.19 per regular season game

-Christian Watford is IU's leading scorer in exhibition games (minimum two games)

-Watford is averaging 20.5 points and 6.75 rebounds per exhibition game compared to 13.9 points and 5.7 rebounds per regular season game

-Tom Pritchard is averaging 9 points and 6.67 rebounds per exhibition game compared to 5.4 points and 4.5 rebounds per regular season game

-Watford and Pritchard are the only Hoosiers who have notched double-doubles in an exhibition game, both coming in their first game in an IU uniform

-IU's bench is averaging 29.5 points per exhibition game

-The most points IU has ever scored in an exhibition game in Crean era was in his first game as coach on Nov. 7, 2008 when they beat Anderson 103-71

-IU has won by double digits in every exhibition game in Crean era
