Uncle Luke’s Not Feeling The Hurricanes After LSU Loss / by Vance Brinkley

Excerpt from State of the U article

There’s a lot of people that you could piss off in Canes nation, but the last person should be Luther Campbell - famously known as the legendary rapper Uncle Luke of the 2 Live Crew. For decades, this Miami superfan has been the lifeline of Miami through both realms of entertainment and sports. Not only has he stood on the sidelines of the greatest Hurricane teams in the 80s right down to the fact that he was associated with multiple violations that were investigated by the NCAA, but Luke’s flash of Canes paraphernalia helped push the team to cultural dominance in the 80s that continues to resonate either through him or other rappers that support the team. However, when you have an embarrassing loss like the one against LSU Sunday night, there’s obviously a ton of backlash that you’ll get from Hurricanes fans (hell even from our Twitter account). But, you know there’s a real problem when Uncle Luke sits down, breaks a laptop out, and actually write his frustrations in a lengthy piece for the Miami New Times.

In his opinionated article, Luke called out Mark Richt’s coaching - specifically the way he managed his quarterback Malik Rosier in Sunday night’s game. He also mentioned how Richt benched receiver Ahmmon Richards after the Senior called out Rosier during halftime and even fired shots at Manny Diaz and his adjustments at defense. According to “Unc,” there’s several players that want Freshman QB N’Kosi Perry to get some snaps. Unfortunately, if not done properly, such a decision to bench Rosier could definitely put Richt into a worse situation.
