The leaders of this Team are not local kids.

Interesting how all the leaders on this team are from out of the state or are not local kids(Jordan, Deejay, Shaq, Pinckney, Martell), looks like kids from other states and other towns love to play for the U more then local kids.

I expect Garvin and Bandy to be leaders

 

[troyskiles]

Sad, but true. Bigger dogs out of state now, I guess.

Need the crib dudes to take some leadership

South Florida is rich with talent but they are nothing but divas who think everything should be handed to them.

 

[TriStarCane]

South Florida is full of front runners. It makes sense. That's why what we've done in the history of cfb is incredible. Not exactly brimming with leadership qualities. Athletic qualities? Yes. Leadership qualities? No.

 

[skeeter]

Bandy, Nesta, Blades, possibly too

 

[Ziggy]

We have a lot of guys who might be leaders, they just don't utilize social media/twitter to recruit which is what we see. Obviously, with today's recruits they want to feel the love/followers/etc. so we see Brevin/DeeJay/Tate reaching out to guys so we automatically assume they are great leaders and they most likely are. The best way to be a leader is to work hard and produce on the field... something we need to see from some of our local guys.

Just think if Gurvan Hall, Al Blades, Frierson, DJ Ivey, Cam Davis, Mark Pope, etc. become household names... we will be cooking!

Ed Reed was from Louisiana.

Worked out fairly well.

Was just about to say this. Guy was a **** of a leader from LSU country. Just because you aren't from South Florida doesn't mean you can't represent and lead just as hard.

Amazing how people equate “leadership” with what a kid tweets.

Take martell off this list. He just arrived. You have no clue what kind of leader he’ll be for this team.

Plus, you’re not in the locker room so how do you know who leads and who doesn’t?

AlO, Bandy seems to show leadership traits based on things said by coached

Exactly. How about these leaders:
Bernie Kosar- Boardman Ohio
Steve Walsh- St Paul, MN
Gino Torretta- Pinole CA
Ken Dorsey- Orinda CA
These guys were true leaders on and off the field. Then you had guys like Barrow and Vilma and Tiger in the defense room, and that’s how you win NCs.

Attitude reflects leadership, captain

 

[gcane44]

Let's not act like Jaquan Johnson hasn't been the undisputed leader on this team for the past 2-3 years. Chad Thomas was definitely a leader here. So was D Jax. Bandy is definitely a leader now.

 

[L A M P]

Makes appreciate JJ4 all the more. And by JJ4, I mean the real one.

So I guess all the programs that have a social media ban lack that attitude which reflects leadership, Captain?
