Clev Lubin's sack celebrations are a mixed bag.
Louisville's senior defensive lineman uses each as an added element of entertainment for spectators and has been known to have a few at his disposal: rolling dice — signifying how he bets on himself — and the "Karate Kid" crane kick pose are just a couple.
But the one that means the most and will be seen the most this season pays homage to his Haitian heritage. Lubin combines the popularized Superman move (pretending to rip open one's shirt in the chest area) with throwing up the "Z" (the two thumbs connect with one palm facing him and the other turned backwards).
Lubin did it so much at practices during his time at Army that one teammate, who was also Haitian, referred to him as "Zuperman" instead of Superman. He debuted the combination move at Iowa Western Community College and brought it two years later to Louisville, where he led the team in sacks, tackles for loss and forced fumbles in his Cardinals debut.
"When I went to JUCO, I started doing the celebration, so that's just stuck with me," Lubin said. "That's kind of my little thing right there."
