Yeah, this is a good explanation but I another way to put it fairly simply is this: lead by example. Cliche, yes, I know. But I think Rautins' unselfishness was every bit as important as all the other things he did (vocally, media, etc) combined. When you look at the guys on this team, I suppose you could question who the vocal leader will be but I feel like that's somewhat irrelevant. As long as these kids are working hard in the off-season, reporting to practice in the Fall in shape and pushing in the same direction, this will be fine.
 
So with that said, I think you can honestly look at what we've seen from Fair, Triche, Keita and Southerland and say, yeah, those kids will work hard and hustle when they are on the floor. It certainly appears Carter-Williams is in that same mold (and he may emerge as a more vocal guy as well). There may be some question with Xmas, but he had a decent frosh season in this regard and should improve.
 
We don't know with cooney and the recruits, but I think the general attitude is more important than the body language and sound bites that are often portrayed as "leadership."
