    Athletic Article about Matt Luke

    https://theathletic.com/905575/2019/...-coordinators/

    Not sure if you need a sub to read this, but I found this article about Luke.... interesting, to say the least.

    Haha, silver lining!! I have loved my Athletic subscription, and would pay 10x the cost for the generally great coverage, but this article was an odd one.

    Re: "Turnaround":

    As resident Bammer, I've reviewed the Data (seen below in Exhibit A) and I'm gonna allow it.

    Exhibit A:
    2017: 3-66
    2018: 7-62

    "It is not courage to resist TUSK; It is courage to accept TUSK."

    No.

    But when you factor in home vs road and the point swing was equal, I call it push with no improvment.

    I read the first part of the article till it said "Try your free trial to read the full story". So I just got a short trailer of the story. Since I'm not interested in a free trial, then the rest of the story remains a mystery. So I knew as much prior to reading the teaser than I do now.

    I thought that was what happened about five months after the beer flowed too freely at the family reunion.

    The article mainly talks about the two coordinator hires and pumps spin about their past accomplishments.

    Luke also says they have positive momentum coming out of Signing Day, a renewed spirit, and a commitment to winning.

    No comments about the (lack of) talent on the roster though.

    You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to starkvegasdawg again.
