Levi Edwards: Before getting into coaching, you worked in Hollywood as a production assistant. What was that experience like?
Luke Stekel: "I worked on "Fast & Furious," not to be confused with "The Fast and the Furious." I worked on it in the spring-summer of 2008. It was the fourth movie in the franchise, a lot of the success of that movie was going to be the reason for [making] more and obviously it did well and they've made about 100 more since (laughter). That was a unique experience. I had a very low level job, a production assistant is just a fancy term for intern. So, I was picking up lunch every day and helping out in the production office or on the set. Spent a lot of time in my car driving around L.A. and this is before you had GPS apps on your phone, so we were printing out a lot of MapQuest directions.
"It was a fun time in my life, man. It's really the only time in my life I haven't been directly involved with football playing or coaching. So it led to some interesting stories. ... It was a fun chapter in my life, but I know if I'd stayed out there that lifestyle just wasn't for me. So I'm glad to be back in the football world."
