Wiltjer? A leader? The kid who was too scared to compete for playing time with this roster and instead chose to tuck tail and run home? Wiltjer isn't a leader. Just isn't in his DNA.
Wiltjer was more interested in making White Boy Academy youtube videos than getting in the gym and working on his body and game.
You think this team is bad defensively now? I shudder to imagine if you had the human turnstile Wiltjer in there as well.
Poythress called a player's only meeting after the LSU loss. I'm usually pretty cynical on the good that player's only meetings do for a team, but I'm highly encouraged that Poythress is at least stepping up and trying to lead. He has been flat out awesome this season, and he's got the cachet with this team to call people out and be the leader if he so chooses.
