LOGAN, Utah — Luke Falk’s sanctum is a small brick house in a rural town just outside of Logan, Utah, that sits on a large tract of land owned by his maternal grandmother. Out front, there’s an old basketball hoop mounted on a metal backboard, where Falk and his uncle, former Utah State basketball star Jeff Anderson, have spent countless hours shooting hoops over the years.
Cords of firewood sit by an old trampoline, waiting to get thrown into the rustic fire pit overlooking the Wellsville Mountains and the Bear River.
Washington State’s senior quarterback has spent many brisk Utah evenings relaxing in front of that fire pit, often with a hearty portion of his Nana’s pork chops in his belly.
