Don’t let his Hollywood-caliber smile and engaging personality fool you. On the practice field, he is and has been a take-charge type of guy. OK, at times, he’s been downright cocky. “That’s a great thing, especially with all the egos we’ve got at receiver,” quipped senior linebacker Tommy Richardson.
