GOLD AND BLACK ILLUSTRATED VOLUME 27, ISSUE 6 33 "I've been working on all that stuff and feeling really confident this is going to be a really good year." Barron, who could extend the streak of having an O-lineman selected as a captain to four years, knows his perfor- mance will be pivotal to solidifying not only the line but the entire offense. It's why he made sure to galvanize the unit this summer, challenging team- mates in the weight room — where he's king now with Roos gone — and learn- ing to become a more vocal leader. He knows what the perception is of his group. And he's eager to change it. "We're probably happier no one thinks we're good," Barron said. "That's probably something that gives us an even bigger chip on our shoulder. "If we all move forward in the same direction, we're all getting better, it's go- ing to improve the entire team because it starts with the offensive line. I think we're awfully excited for the challenges ahead of us. At least I know I am. What I've seen from the guys so far, they are too." j S Y A W L A Y A T S T A E R G A Get everything you're looking for, all at a great price.
