Watch: Anthony Leal Announces Fifth-Year Return, Defends Woodson in Senior Day Speech

Anthony Leal didn't need to say much in his Senior Day speech following Indiana's 65-64 win over Michigan State on Sunday.

That's because he has a full year to think about what he wants to say.

"I've felt a lot of emotions over the last few days," Leal said. "It's really been hard, but the main thing that's been keeping me going is knowing that I don't really have to give this speech until next year."

The Assembly Hall crowd rose to its feet and applauded the Bloomington native and 2020 Indiana Mr. Basketball, who also defended his coach, Mike Woodson amid a season where he'd been mentioned as a coach on the hot seat.

"I do gotta make something very clear," Leal continued. "Adversity is part of sports, and for those of you who are so quick to give up and call for quits and everything, there's a reason that you guys aren't coaches. So relax. There's no other coach in the country that I would trust with anything in my life than coach Woodson, and there's no other university I'd want to represent. So we're gonna run it back, but you guys gotta chill."
