O'Leary looking for quality leaders

Before the season began, UCF Coach George O'Leary said one of his goals for his team this season was that there would come a moment when his veterans "started to take over the locker room."

In other words, he hoped for the time to come when leadership would come not from the coaches, but from the players. The Knights aren't quite to that moment, but they are certainly getting close, O'Leary said.

The team was off Monday, but O'Leary said one of the things on the agenda when the Knights get back on the practice field this week would be to choose captains.

UCF has had game captains in each of its seven games this season. Wednesday the Knights will select a single captain for both offense and defense for the rest of the year.
