“Uncle Luke” Campbell Launches New Sports Management Company

Champion freedom fighter and Hip-Hop icon Luther “Uncle Luke” Campbell announces the launch of Luke Sports Management, a company dedicated to mentoring and representing college and professional athletes and coaches. The management company was launched in particular to provide an equal playing field for Black athletes and coaches who lack proper representation. 

NFL & College Football Players Devontae Freeman, Chad Johnson, Duke Johnson Emmet Rice, DeAndre Baker, Vosean Joseph, Edgerrin James, Warren Sapp, Wilis McGhee And Hundreds More Have All Benefited Under Uncle Luke’s Tutelage

Having been a conduit for athletes for over thirty years via his Liberty City Optimist program and his work as a high school coach, Campbell has helped develop pro athletes from the start of their introduction to football including the likes of Devontae Freeman, Duke Johnson, Willis McGee and Chad Johnson. 

“So many of these athletes, especially those of color, are being overlooked or taken advantage of,” expressed Campbell. “I feel a need to serve the underserved. Our job is to push the envelope and give them a sense of comfort while providing avenues that can take them to the next level.” 

Campbell continues, “My experience in sports as a high school player, advocate and coach to players such as Vosean Joseph, Carlton Davis, Deandre Baker, and Emmett Rice, tied to my life-long career in the entertainment business will offer never-done-before opportunities to our clients. What sets us apart is that we are offering ground-breaking representation to coaches as well.” 

Campbell has had an extensive marketing career within the entertainment industry, working with artists such as H-Town, 2 Live Crew, Pitbull and Trick Daddy, and has mentored some of the best pro athletes such as Hall of Famers Edgerrin James, Warren Sapp, Ricky Jackson and Cortez Kennedy. 

College sports are changing drastically, with Florida being the first state to approve college athletes to be paid for their name and likeness. Campbell has dedicated the next step in his career to fighting for the underrepresented and serving as a voice for the people who often go unheard.
