Caleb Love didn't realize it at the time, but Hubert Davis has been preparing him to be a captain all preseason.
Everyone understands the on-court progress Love needs to show in his sophomore season. He wants to become a more efficient and reliable shooter, a better decision-maker, and a more careful ballhandler.
Davis wants even more.
"He has high expectations of me as far as playing basketball, but also being a part of leading the team," Love said after practice on Thursday, when he was announced as one of three captains on this year's team, joining Armando Bacot and R.
