[@nathanfaas1293]

The first time I saw this I was hoping 2 was already a scholarship player

[@sportsxd6597]

I love how #2 cheered for him when he found out that it was a scholarship

[@lasenyo7705]

it was planned from the start #2 knew about it

[@stevenmoskalev7971]

lol yea the scholarship literally has the guys name on it, there was 100 percent chance that number 2 was in on it

You can tell he really gives damn about those guys, cant begin to tell you how many coaches want wins more than players

[@danielaawagner]

These videos always make me cry. So happy for all the walk-ons and the scholarships they earn! Good job guys! Be proud.

[@TjBlack1]

If you really think about it, that was like $50,000 dollar drill lmao😂😂

I love this, Coach Luke really seems like a great guy, a players guy. Im a Bama fan, but more than that, im a fan of "people", and good people and what they do when they have opportunities to enhance or better someone else's life. Good job, coach, and great job "selling" this fake! I wish you the best, Ole Miss and Coach Luke, just not against my team!

[@gavinlowery2132]

andy brinkley must be nice as a Bama fan lol

Man that gave me chills

[@andrewh1424]

Man this type of coaching is what makes me love football even more.. Hard work and dedication, could not be more true.

[@roberthudson1959]

I love the fact that his teammates went nuts BEFORE he read the note.

[@giccaficca]

Congrats love and coach we need more like you

[@I_ate_at_burger_king]

Matt Luke one of the best college coaches in football he gone turn em around watch

[@JeeniusGaming]

I love videos like this, could watch stuff like this all day long !

[@NRB_75]

God bless him! We are ALL family and should always help one another. If we ALL were "unselfish" we wouldn't have the issues we have in the world today.

[@kingsharp2088]

COACH REALLY CARES ABOUT HIS PLAYERS YOU CAN TELL HE'S VERY GENUINE AND SINCERE

[@1packatak]

I wish every coach was like that!!!

[@hutchthervil9730]

Hey awesome coach that’s how a team should be. Unselfishness is a key to success. I’ve played with and been around great high school football players but most of them are selfish. I say to the coach and the team great job.

[@kkhawk53]

Congratulations! Love these videos

[@TWolfyG]

Coach said “OHHH!!!” When he started the backflip 😂 thought the scholarship was about to be a waste for a second lmao

[@jordanindigo2652]

man why doesnt this have more likes , this comment got me crying🤣🤣🤣

This is why I love college football

for those of you questioning if number 2 was in on it.... the scholarship literally has the full name of the kid in red, it was 100% set up

[@duanejessup3708]

NCAA going to put ole Miss on sanctions for this I'm sure. Receiving a sweatshirt with hood is a NCAA violation. Lol

[@jeremiahedwards3560]

didnt have a hood it was just a long sleeve shirt

[@glassjawrules13]

Fly Floyd congrats in the scholarship

I like this coach hahah

That is a culture creating coach.

That’s the definition of paying your parents back

[@tommyreusse3858]

imagine if the other guy actually needed a scholarship too lol

[@t6shi]

what if he dropped the ball and the DB got the bag😂

[@realbakedjesus2451]

😂

[@tournamentchallenge4305]

Or the QB just throws it away

[@rancid2222]

Still good....hope Floyd is doing good

Bruh said u need to pick that check up $1600 😂

Floyd looks like a mini josh Gordon

[@cello100k3]

Damn that was easy

[@_thecell_]

"AY!"

[@enzocirnigliaro1809]

The defensive guy was in on it. No press coverage and the scholarship had the dude's name on it. The DB probably already has a scholarship

[@codyryan8808]

"Hey"

[@benmartin3180]

Love this shit

[@davidparkes7741]

Ok but did the scholarship guy also get a hoodie?

[@irvinwhitehurst9068]

How many times you think Luke says Hey per day

[@prayingmantis6777]

I felt bad for the other player who only won the hoodie.

[@richletram539]

💖😭

[@marcuswilson1371]

Lmao did they both win or just that one guy. Cuz imagine how the other guy must be feeling

[@MrFreckling]

other guy is already on the team. he was in on it

[@tournamentchallenge4305]

I mean the scholarship already had the guys name on it

[@djxxxplicit]

Saw DK back there!

[@ironbde6007]

dude it gave me memories seeing A.J. and Dawson

[@leaphengleng2941]

This guy sounds like Phillip Rivers.

How about the NCAA surprise the players and pay them their earned portions of residuals.

$200k drill, not too shabby

Imagine he drop the ball💀

[@eharold9418]

I’m not trippin #2 let him in easy right lol

[@marcuseversley3334]

He was already on the team. The whole thing was to get him the scholarship

[@charliemorris4641]

Was the other guy on scholarship or not?

[@InAltum.]

Yes he was 👍

[@damonsidur9130]

How much did they pay him for it tho??

[@maconwills4009]

I thought 2 would be on scholarship as well. Pretty unfair match-up.

The second core value of our program is pay kids money to come play here.

[@BillyMcBean.]

isn't any game, every game?

[@roberthudson1959]

No. "Any game" means "any given game."

[@devilfish3034]

So blue guy didn’t get a scholarship or he had one already?

[@califinn]

...and they say that players aren't paid.

[@roberthudson1959]

They aren't. Lots of students are on full scholarships, from athletes to artists to academic standouts.

[@finndegroot1214]

You know that Floyd Allen Was going to win the whole time because the paper has his name on it already and it’s unfair for the cornerback all the receiver to do is make one move and you could catch the ball

[@KitMcIntoshSJ]

I'm pretty sure the corner was already on scholarship, this was just the way they decided to award Allen with it

[@ChrisSmith-kw4gn]

What about #2 tho?

[@marcuseversley3334]

He was already on the team. The whole thing was to get him the scholarship

[@masterroshi6910]

I hope the other guy already had a scholarship or that’s fucked up 😂😂

[@NotRobsChannel]

And $12,000

[@TerryT0114]

So the other guy didn't get a scholarship? That is messed up on a monumental proportion. He gets beat on one play an the other guy gets a scholarship an he gets a shirt? Is that what I just watched? If that's the case I wouldn't want my boys anywhere near that program. What am I missing? Was it a setup for that kid to win? If not that seems awful. I'd do all I could to keep my boys away from there.

[@jericho3161]

This sucks for the other guy though

[@pimphandstrong6620]

Wait #13 crying for real

[@gendoll5006]

That kinda sucks lol I thought they were both gonna get it

Hot Toddy man.

That's fucked up

[@simonmcleish2703]

Disgusting.....say about being a family then completely fk someone over with multiple replays for the world. Well done....that young lad can't walk around the school without being pointed at. That coach is not a coach.....he wanted to be on TV or the Internet. I'm very sorry for his children if he has any

[@marcuseversley3334]

Relax Relax #2 was already on scholarship. So the game plan was basically let #11 walk in for his scholarship

[@jimloogmusic9964]

Unselfish team but only gave 1 a scholarship lol
