This one is for Bobby. As controversy clouds begin to push on past Spartan land, home to the season of shame, I finally found one of those "positives, positives, positives, positives," he was speaking of only weeks before his firing.
Suit up senior strong safety Thomas Wright.
Known by those close, "T" is the leader of the 2002 Spartan squad.
He became the role model junior quarterback Jeff Smoker wasn't during a season desperately looking toward somebody, anybody, with answers.
Whether he wanted to, the head-shaved, goateed leader assumed the role of the go-to captain, as senior tailback Dawan Moss and Smoker found themselves indefinitely suspended.
And so Wright's casual stroll out of Duffy Daugherty says "follow me."
His play inside Spartan Stadium says "play at my level."
His walk talked all season.
