Syracuse, N.Y. -- Dino Babers stood in the doorway of Eastern Illinois' weight room, eavesdropping on the new strength and conditioning coach he had only known for a couple months.
Sean Edinger didn't know he was being tested at the time, but he was about to earn the trust of the man he has now worked for at three schools over the last six years.
This trust would come to elevate him from new hire to Babers' No.
