UConn Football Has Leadership Council; Not Captains

Related Topics: Randy Edsall

UConn Huskies football head coach Randy Edsall handles captains like other teams do. Most teams have three to four assigned leaders that go out for the coin toss every game and wear the patch on their jersey to signify that they are a leader.

Instead, Edsall and the Huskies will have a leadership council, a collection of one player from each position group, except for one, that will serve, essentially, as a larger group of captains. The council has 10 members, with six on offense and four on defense.

“I didn’t have the quarterbacks vote,” Edsall said.
