Luke's preparation

Panthers.com: Kuechly hungry for more

 

If a player with half the talent put the time in that Kuechly does, he'd maximize his output, but it would still only get him halfway to Kuechly. If Kuechly prepared half as hard as that guy, the two would be on equal footing.

 

But combine Kuechly's talent and his time commitment, and the results speak for themselves.

 

"It's not an accident that he's successful. He spends as much time as anybody I've been around if not more," defensive coordinator Sean McDermott said. "With the process he puts himself through, he earns the right to be good."

 

 

ESPN: Being the best begins well before kickoff for Panthers' Luke Kuechly

 

But what sets Kuechly apart is his preparation. He spends more time in the film room than some coaches. He had to be told to leave on Christmas Eve.

"The process he puts himself through, he earns the right to be good and to have success," Panthers defensive coordinator Sean McDermott says. "It's like studying for an exam for Luke."

Kuechly is dedicated in a way that can be described as obsessive. His idea of social time during the season is hanging out with teammates in the locker room.

Talk about a homerun draft pick. He's been showin out since his first preseason game.

Future HOF and possibly the GOAT at his position.

This is how you build a team - full of guys like this. To be successful these guys need to enjoy every aspect of NFL life, not be juggling their outside social life with their football. I think we've got a whole bunch of guys like Luke on the team, and the most important thing I've noticed.....All these guys seem to truly like each other and enjoy being around each other. Our future is very bright with Gettleman and these core pieces, and even Rivera.

Basically what the article is saying is that if Luke was a lake, he would have enough water to fill a lake twice as big, but half as deep.

Thank you Hurney for doing the right thing and drafting Luke.

 

 

All you had to do was look at his Boston College youtube clips to realize the guy is a monster.

Lame secret....

Sometimes when I am working out...and I almost give up.  I imagine the Luke is there and I don't want to let him down.  So I keep going. 

 

True Story.
