It didn't take long for Ohio State coach Urban Meyer to follow through on the topic of my blog post from earlier this week.

Meyer has never been shy about sharing his feelings for players he really loves. John Simon, Zach Boren and Braxton Miller can all be counted as players Meyer has told the media he "loves"

Right on cue, Meyer added another player to the list in his Monday media meeting.

No surprise it was senior linebacker Etienne Sabino who, because of an injury suffered in the Nebraska game, will miss at least the next three games.

"Sabino's like a son and a brother to everybody. He's an incredible human being.
I love that guy." Meyer said Monday in response to the very first question asked in the press conference.

It won't make Sabino heal any faster, but it's got to help to know how the coach feels about him.
