We're getting ready to play Ohio. I don't think you talk about those. The players, that shouldn't even be an issue. I'm proud.

I think that makes it a little easier.

I've seen those knee braces save a bunch of knees. There's no question in my mind that Reggie Butler would be operated on right now if he hadn't had that knee brace on. It was a tough blow right to the knee, but the brace didn't allow the knee to bend to where something would be completely torn.
