Everyone has spoke to the leadership issue with this team, let me tell you an example of why I think this team will be okay. Tradition at Belfry as all of us fans know is we raise our helmets during the time between the end of the 3rd quarter and the first play of the 4th quarter. I saw an offensive lineman I believe it was number 61, get on a player who I'm not gonna call out for goofing off and twirling his helmet on his hand, the player didn't immediately respond, 61 then got in his face and pointed toward the locker room and I can only assume said put it up or head to the locker room. The player got the picture and his helmet was held high until the first play of the 4th quarter was over. Examples of this may be found in most games and with most teams, but to all the people that don't understand "the belfry way" this is why we are consistent this is why we are who we are, and young man I commend you for carrying on the tradition of leadership and doing things the right way that so many of us fought to establish "Pirate Pride"

What is good about that is that # 61 is just a sophomore. He is already showing leadership. That's a good sign and I believe a sign of good things to come.
