Things are beggining to change in terms of internal player leadership and having a self policing locker room . With players like Shaq Quarterman, Deejay Dallas, and DJ Johnson and others being added to this team I would expect to see a completely different mentality take root in the Hecht. This coaching staff has done an admirable job of laying down the foundation and the vision of the program we need to be and have always been when we were at our best. That however is not enough if a self motivating culture with strong internal leadership is not developed in the locker room.
That's where players I mentioned above come in. They will be the foundational catalysts for this programs ascent back to the pinnacle of college football. Although he has not played a single snap that counts yet, Shaquille Quarterman will serve to be the rock that our new dynasty will be built on. Shaquille has more than just talent. He possesses a type of maturity well beyond his years and the type of focus and leadership ability that very few are born with. Without even having played a game yet, it is strikingly apparent to me than Shaq is a transcendent once in a decade(Maybe more) type of player. He is the type of player that has the ability to galvanize an entire locker room with his character and work ethic. As this staff continues to add and stack talent it will be the young men like Shaq, DJ, and Deejay that will turn a very talented program, into a championship program.
Nice post, I disagree that was happening with the players the past couple of classes, they just didn't have it in the front office to help them. Tracey and Duke were putting in work, their ****** *** coaches were failing them!!!
