On a conference call this week, Bill Lynch was just looking for numbers.
He was asked to comment about Penn State's defensive end Maurice Evans. In a very Paterno-esque moment for the Indiana coach, he asked for clarification. He wanted numbers not names.
"What number is he?" Lynch said. "I'm terrible at this, names. I know all the numbers now. I guess as a coach, I'm a numbers guy. I know our guys now."
"Forty-eight," said a reporter on the line.
"Forty-eight," Lynch said. "He's a D-end. Forty-seven's the other end. Forty-seven is from Ft. Wayne. His name's [Josh] Gaines. I know that."
Just one of the lighter moments this week.
Corey and I take off from State College at 8 a.m. tomorrow. We'll check back with everyone tomorrow afternoon in Bloomington, Ind.
Cheers,
Mark
