    Yes, he was the coach of some very good teams (Big 8, NCAA and Olympic champions), and by all accounts a nice person.

    He will be missed and prayers go out to the Lynn family.

    I've heard from several of his former athletes that he passed out in his home and hit his head on the toilet. He went to the hospital and passed all the tests and scans and was doing better, but then all of a sudden he passed away.

    Lilfe is fleeting. He was a good guy.
    I was a victim of a series of accidents, as are we all.

    Head Coach Bill Bergan and Coach Lynn made quite a wonderful pair of coaches who got the most out of their team. He will be missed.

In this way regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers.

    A long long line at Steve's visitation this evening. There is a track meet going on this weekend and the athletes and officials are wearing ribbons with a "SL" on them.
