Who must be a name mentioned for lifter of the year?

Eric the Red

Team HuskerBoard
Who are your top three players you feel need to be mentioned as a lifter of the year? There is only one chosen, but give your top three players that must show up each and every day as either an example, simply need to get stronger, or any combination of reasons you can think of. Sometimes it's really important for a senior to be (Josh Banderas for example) or a very important contributor regardless of class (Joshua Kalu) to step up and lead. Championships are won in the offseason. What are your thoughts?

1. Vincent Valentine - I'll almost always go with a valuable veteran contributor who is or could be an all-league player to help lead the team. The combination has led great teams.

2. DPE - Has huge energy, loves the game and Huskers. Plus he's coming off an injury. His commitment and extra work can motivate many.

3. Gates-Young OLineman that might have been our best on the line needs to become a leader. It's most likely our thinnest position. With so many skilled players back, the line is where it's at.

Note - please don't turn this thread into a piss and moaning competition or how bad someone is or why we'll never be great again. Thank you!!

Well of your list above I would choose VV because that would mean he has decided to stay and has bought in to the staff. It would be a great sign IMO. Would quell a lot of the rumored issues DL players have with Hughs. Other than that, I would like to see a OL player win the award, Gates would be great as it looks like he is ready and willing to be a leader.

 
1. Ross Dzuris, because every team needs a mustached bare-knuckle boxer

2. (Any one of the Davis brothers), because who doesn't like hearing "YEAH BUDDY" and "LIGHT WEIGHT BABY!!" screamed in the gym

3. Mick Stoltenberg, because who doesn't like a good comeback story like Mr. Incredible

Was thinking this current offseason. Right now really.....what leader needs to emerge or continue to stay in the team's spotlight for the Huskers to see max results for the upcoming season?

DPE probably isn't going to be doing much lifting work for a while. Just had major knee surgery ~2 months ago.
