My partner is reporting that Penn State receiver Deon Butler will likely break Penn State's all-time receptions record this weekend.
I thought he would do it against Iowa, but Butler only tied it.
Today will probably be the last time Bobby Engram's name is on top of the record list, so we pay tribute to Engram, who is also the single-season receptions record holder for the Seattle Seahawks with 94 catches in 2007.
Here's Engram at work in 1994 for Penn State.
In addition to Butler, there are some other familiar current Lions moving up the list.
Here's the complete top ten with No. of receptions in parenthesis:
1. Bobby Engram (167) / Deon Butler (167)
3. Derrick Williams (149)
4. Jordan Norwood (143)
5. O.J. McDuffie (125)
6. Jack Curry (117)
7. Bryant Johnson (110)
8. Kenny Jackson (109)
9. Terry Smith (108)
10. Tony Johnson (107)
It's pretty tough to believe Butler was a walk-on to play defensive back.
