To be clear, I don’t really care how a player interviews. And i’d say it’s a relatively small part of the job of a captain.
But when fans talk about a player being “captain material” it usually just means the player is media savvy enough to give good interviews and that’s about all we ever see.
The Captain needs to have the respect of the players.
