Message: [QUOTE="GoCardinal, post: 3538064, member: 6989"] There’s a difference between a calming presence and an emotional leader. Those surrounding the Gamecocks this year would be first to admit that Herbert-Harrigan was the emotional leader, while Ty Harris was more of the calm and cool type. Typically the calm types don’t show a lot of emotion, and are even-keeled no matter what’s happening. For some players, that works wonders. However, there are some players that get fired up seeing a teammate exhibit a certain level of feistiness/fieriness. It makes them want to go harder for that teammate because they see how hard said teammate is going behind them. Two different styles of leadership, but both are effective and necessary. To an outsider, specifically more recently, there have been times where it seems Geno has shown more emotion during the course of a game than the actual players. [/QUOTE]
