It’s pretty obvious that Al Blades Jr. has expectations to hold at Miami. Not only was he a highly recruited freshman from Miami’s backyard, but he’s also another generation of talent from the Blades family. However, this week marked an important week at the defensive back’s journey at The U and possibly his football career.
In a recent report by Fox Sports, Blades was surprisingly announced to be the captain in the Hurricanes’ match up against Toledo alongside Joe Jackson, Hayden Mahoney and Sheldrick Redwine. Though this is a huge moment for the young cornerback, he’s been slowly proving that he’s ready for title.
