Mizzou Storytellers - Andy Lutz

This week on “Mizzou Storytellers,” hosts Loretta Jones, Dave Matter and “Producer Steve” Sowers sit down with one of the most trusted pillars inside the Mizzou Football program: Andy Lutz, Assistant Director of Athletics and Chief of Staff for Mizzou Football. With more than 30 years in the trenches of college football operations, Lutz has seen just about everything the sport can throw at you — undefeated seasons, bowl championships and record-setting years — and now the rise of Mizzou under Eliah Drinkwitz. He’s a problem-solver, a relationship-builder, a father, an outdoorsman, and, according to his daughter, a dangerously competitive card shark. The California native grew up on a vineyard but found his way to football—and for the first time ever, shares his full story in this episode. Andy opens up about the craft of football operations, the leadership lessons he picked up across his career and the organized chaos of managing a program hitting its stride. He explains what a Chief of Staff actually does, what fans don’t see during a game week and why stability inside the building has helped fuel the Tigers’ success.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
