Interesting quote from Donny Marshall in this article.
http://www.courant.com/sports/uconn...ny-marshall-bullying-0818-20150817-story.html
"I get the unfiltered Ollie because of our relationship. He is optimistic because now he has players with leadership qualities to go with players who can score and understand how to play defense," Marshall said.
"They were lacking some leaders last year. I think we can see UConn get back to where we want them to be."
So was Boatright not a good leader? I don't think Brimah was ready for that role last year so I doubt he helped much in the leadership department even though he was a captain. So does Ollie think that Gibbs and Miller, both as 5th year D1 players even though this is their first and only year here at UConn, are going to be good leaders? I'm just curious what exactly that quote means.
