Uncle Fester doppelganger Larry Coker will be jumping into the analyst booth this fall for ESPN. Coker will join Everyman Hero/ Heisman Trophy Winner Doug Flutie as new talent for the fall games. Yes, the kid that grew up in Okemah, OK (pop. 3,308) bares a striking resemblance to the Addams Family character (odd coincidence-- the TV series ran for 64 episodes. Coker's last year at Miami was his worst. If you remove the final (and worst season) season, his head coaching career covered 62 games. Hey, you can't escape some scary, meaningless trivia). My hunch is that Coker will take a little time to warm up, but his knowledge of the game and his experience at some of the biggest football factories (he's coached at Tulsa, OU, Oklahoma State, The Ohio State University before Miami) will give some great insight to the viewer.
