Is he filling a void (opening) on the coaching staff or is this just a major reinforcement that was badly needed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WABO1 Posted April 28, 2023 Author Share Posted April 28, 2023 I can’t speak for Jack but my twist is this. He had room and opportunity to grasp a coach like this, so he did. I’m not sure exactly what roll he will be filling but I expect a huge positive impact on the program. They know each other well. I think Coach Luker was tired of being a head coach and just wants to coach and leave the administrative duties to others. Great chemistry between these two. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They definitely know each other very well! Everyone up and down Highway 43 in Alabama knows Coach Luker and his football history. Great combo!

They are telling me this is a home run hire. I’ll be honest I don’t know Coach Luker but know what he’s done and it’s very impressive.

I know when he coached at Sweetwater(1A)he would play any school in the area whether they were 1A or 5A. It didn’t matter and their opponent better be ready. The players from Sweetwater would say that the Friday night games were easy compared to weekly practices! Can’t wait to see how this combo unfolds!

slicklizard Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 More wing t with the best thrower we’ve had since I can’t remember when and one of the top wide receivers in the state. Like Maroontide said, No excuses this season playing in the runt classification even with forcing defenses to defend space the size os an Amazon box.

Unless it has something to do with Alabama Buttermilk, your guess is as good as mine but to get the gist of his post I think he is referring to the action of getting a coach on your staff who’s probably better than your current head coach two fold. That’s where the double dipping part probably comes in. Heck I’m all for Wayne County triple dipping and quadruple dipping because having great coaches on your staff really bolsters a program and allows you to have a high level of perrenial sustained success.

maroontide06 Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 @slicklizardSince "Papi Buttermilk Club" is a compliment to Wayne County Football, we've got to pool some funds together and get some t-shirts made with that on it. I've got some ideas in my head about how they should look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I never know what he means most of the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's really that big of a deal though and it's kind of a genius move for Wayne County because they are getting some high caliber coaches.

maroontide06 Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Here’s a random question for you Wayne County folks. Whatever happened to Dietric Slater? Even though it wasn’t, it just seems like it was yesterday when he was playing basketball for Rick Stansbury and the Bulldogs. He was a special athlete for sure.
