URBAN MEYER - LEADERSHIP COMMITTEE
NEWSLETTER #26 - 2006-07 URBAN MEYER - LEADERSHIP COMMITTEE Recently, our staff was pointed towards a great idea implemented by University of Florida Head Football Coach, Urban Meyer. Meyer, in his second season at Florida, has created a "Leadership Committee" to help cultivate a better team environment. The committee, made up of current players from all years, is entrusted with cutting off team oriented issues before they become a major issue. The description below comes from the 2006 Florida Football Media Guide. A firm believer that players should be accountable to each other and not just the coaching staff, Coach Meyer utilizes the Florida Leadership Committee. Members of the Leadership Committee include six seniors, two juniors, three sophomores and three freshmen. The Committee is charged with acting as spokesmen for the team and handling situations related to team policy issues, academic affairs, offcampus circumstances and other topics. The committee meets periodically throughout the year with Meyer. “We are looking for the Leadership Committee to enhance team chemistry, police the team from within and exemplify what it means to be leaders, both on and off the field,” says Meyer.

ZONE OFFENSE It is the ONE opportunity that matters. You can’t be concerned about other guys getting more opportunities or more chances to make a play. At some point the opportunity will be yours. When you have the chance to make a play, to make a difference, at that moment that is all that matters. Everyday, I practice with that opportunity in mind. -Antwaan Randle El WIDE RECEIVER - WASHINGTON REDSKINS Xavier University - Men's Basketball - 3800 Victory Parkway - Cintas Center - Cincinnati, OH 45207 - (513) 745-3417 - (887) WE ARE XU
