Just wondering on "Game Captains":
How rare is it to have a freshman, non-starter as a game captain?
Is the naming of Locke a motivational gambit by Coach Brooks?

I don't think it is as rare to have a freshman as a captain as it is to have a non-starter. I can't remember a non-starter in any spot that has been made a team captain.

I tell you what Locke has impressed the hell out of me. If my opinion is worth anything to anyone Locke gets my vote as well. So does John Conner.

I agree guys, Locke is going to be a great one. Look out running backs and opponents.

Sounds like Little is ailing enough not to start, hence elevating Locke to the starting spot and the honor of game captain.
