Wow, thinking of potential captains makes me realize how young we are going to be on defense next year. If I were to pick defensive captains, I think I would go with two out of a group of KVR, Day, Grace, and Jaylon. I think those are four that would be good leaders on the field and play with passion. Offensively, personalities haven't been as public. Based on experience, I guess I would go with Lombard and maybe Cam. I am not entirely convinced either of those will be starters, though. Should be interesting.

I love Cam as a Captain! I think he is mentally and physically tough, a good student, and a great character guy. He was a young man that came to ND under the radar, worked his butt off and was willing to do what was best for the team. If I am not mistaken he was a DB for a short period of time when we were in desperate need.
There is nothing that says you need to be a starter to be a Captain.(Im not implying anyone said you had to be). I think Cam = Captain for 2014 but he will be our 3rd RB and that's a good problem to have.

No. I don't like the idea of having a kicker as a captian.
I would go:
ZMartin
Tuitt/Ishaq (pending Tuitt)
Niklas
Golson

That would be really cool, but it probably won't happen. I think he is deserving though, and would be a good choice. But, It would be weird having a captain that didn't start.

I'd say Cam has a future as a GQ model if football doesn't work out. Pics from his wedding.

That's Joe Schmidt holding his right leg, no? Don't recognize anyone else in the picture. Am I missing any other players?

Not sure. But pretty sure that's koon in the way back loitering around, hopeful for a shirtless pic.

Nothing personal, but you can't complain about Koon derailing threads when you make comments like this.

Difference being, I won't keep this up ad nauseam.
I'm guilty as hell of derailing threads, but it's usually done with other posters involved (Rack Em, Wooly, Johnny, Kane, Gattaca, Cack, etc.), continuing a motif. And then it dies off or mods delete them and that's that. We usually don't continue on with the "cause."

Wouldn't have said anything if I hadn't noticed you do it multiple times recently, that's all. Should have PM'ed you though initially so my bad.

I find your obsession with Koon slightly disturbing. Are you sure that you don't have a crush on him?

2 things to like about Cam:
1) He played CB two years ago and was swtiched around a lot. He had a pretty darn good year last year for all that. He might have more potential than some people think.
2) He has the right attitude for the position. He is all confidence. He is not going to accept the #2 or #3 spot lying down. That is going to force some good competition.

Seems to be a lot of pregnancies surrounding get the program the last few years. Is that because we don't have people like Miami does to pay for abortions, or because as a Catholic University we don't believe in birth control.
