You should know this was never done before at Auburn. It was conjured up for the floswimming cameras. I interviewed Brett Hawke about it and he said they won't do it again.
Observation: as the set goes on, their teamates seem to be fewer and fewer elsewhere in the pool.
Question: Will they lose their Gatorade endorsement? Or perhaps cause a warning lable on the bottles?

Just wrong...yet funny to watch.
I'm not sure how much conventional benefit they derived from something like this, but I'm a strong believer of mental toughness training and comraderie building (and the occasional arbitrary torture of elite athletes for fun). Looks like a good way to break up the mind-numbing monotony that can settle into a program like that.
