Summary

Luke is from Neenah, Wisconsin and joined the Hawkeyes in the class of 2021. Luke served as the long snapper for the Iowa Hawkeyes over the last four years. Luke shares his journey from being a high school quarterback in Wisconsin to becoming a standout long snapper at Iowa. He discusses his experiences, including the unexpected moment he was called to snap during the Iowa State game, his intensive snaps in cold weather games, and the mental and physical progression throughout his college career. We also delve into his current preparations for pursuing an NFL career, including his training and the showcases he's participating in. We get really deep in to the nerdy lane of special teams, how great Tory and Rhys have been, Casey Kreiter paving the way, what he specifically has to do to make the league, and more.
