I didn’t see Noel Devine enter the Puskar Center, where today the media gathered to talk to random football players. Devine arrived, though, and was ready and willing to share thoughts about his summer thus far. I saw him sit in the chair and noticed he was wearing a personalized T-shirt.

Interesting, I thought, as I recalled my closet of “Casazza” Ts and jerseys. I couldn’t hear a word Noel had to say, so I moved around the chair and into the crowd.

So glad I did that …

Th– that’s a Superman T-shirt. With his name on the back. I was mesmerized. Didn’t even realize I’d forgotten to turn on my recorder … which is a shame because he was, as has become expected now, very open, elaborative and funny. So much so that when I asked about the T-shirt — what, you’re surprised I was fixed on something not at all related to the topic? — he was happy to pose in the threads his friend had fashioned.

I know what you’re wondering and the answer is “Yes.” Noel Devine does have black and green Jordans to match. It’s how leaders lead.
