Former Australian plumber turned punter finding his comfort zone at UConn
>>Coach Randy Edsall, whose Burton Family Football Complex office window overlooks the Shenkman Training Facility, has seen Magliozzi working overtime on his craft. He called his punter a great role model.
"Luke is a great story and a great testament for hard work," Edsall said. "That's the reason he is what he is, because of how hard he's worked. ... There's nobody that put in the time and effort that he did, so it's not surprising to me to see him have the success that he's had so far.
"Plus, he's a little bit older and more mature than a lot of those other guys. ... He appreciates the opportunity that he has. He's got a lot of pride in himself and he wants to be good. If you want to be good, you've got to work at it, and that's what he did. Every guy on our team could go and talk to Luke about what it takes to be good."<<
