2014 Santaluces (Fla.) wide receiver Darrell Langham is doing everything he can to take his game to the next level while getting ready for the 2013 season.
“We’ve been training on routes and things, trying to get them down. Sometime we will sit down and watch film from last year and recap and see what we need to work on.”
Langham has taken the leadership role for the receivers group by not only leading every drill, but also instructing the other young players.
“I’m pretty much the one who leads the drills to show them how to do it and I’ll stop and explain how to do it for them.”
As far as goals for his senior season, the Lake Worth native isn’t looking for certain statistics, but rather a team goal.
“Really, my goal is to get my team to play offense and what goes on from there to just get us to the top.”
The 6’4, 180-pound receiver gave his pledge to Miami back during the summer and assures that he is still solidly committed.
“I talk to them often, on Facebook usually. The commitment was big to me because it was local and I’m still near my family and everything. I’d say it’s still 100 percent.”
Langham has high remarks for both head coach Al Golden and receivers coach Brennan Carroll.
“Coach Golden is a good coach, he knows a lot of ways to get the ball into his players' hands. I think Coach Carroll is a good guy, he knows a lot of cone drills to help out with speed and everything and I look forward to working with him.”
As of right now, the Santaluces product has no intentions of taking any visits to any college, but will be attending Miami’s senior day in August.
“Yes, I’ll be attending. I’m just trying to have a good time there.”
One aspect that truly separated Miami from all the other schools in contention for Langham was the academic side.
“They really got me with the educational part, with the small classes, the teachers work with you hands-on a lot. That’s what really got me.”
Langham’s head coach Daryl Drinkwater commented on the type of kid Darrell is and his character.
“He is an extremely respectful kid and well-mannered kid who is an absolute pleasure to coach. He is obviously also extremely talented with tremendous upside.”
