Coaches also have to decide every year if they want to continue. Me being a coach, too, I ask myself from time to time if this is my last year, because it is tough on you. The strain it puts on the family and the mental fatigue from concern for the team. Also, as a school teacher, we have to ask ourselves if it is time to go. With the summer off, you have plenty of time to question your desire to return to the fray.
I think this is where Luck was, and decided that he just could not do it physically or mentally any longer.

I believe most of us understand that but the timing is what sucks. Maybe he truly though he was going to give it a go? I don’t know.
