INDIANAPOLIS -- With the students busy studying, Butler's men's basketball head coach Chris Holtmann decided to do something nice and treat a few to some coffee to keep them motivated.
Good luck to all BU students this week in Finals! Big week. Stop by the campus Starbucks at 3pm if you need a study break. Drinks on me.

The coach invited any Butler students to stop in the Starbucks on campus, offering to purchase their drinks.
What he didn't expect was the crowd of people who showed up to take him up on the offer.

Holtmann kept his word, despite the large crowd -- and spent quite a bit doing so, according to ESPN's Jeff Goodman.
