OL coach Matsko thrilled to work with Oher again
SPARTANBURG, S.C. – When Michael Oher first signed with the Carolina Panthers, it didn’t take long for him to mention offensive line coach John Matsko’s name.
In fact, it was one of the first things he talked about.
"I'm excited to be back with him, working with him again," Oher said after signing the dotted line.
Added head coach Ron Rivera: "A big part of why we pursued Michael was his relationship with John."
Oher, a first-round pick of the Ravens in 2009, played his first two seasons under Matsko in Baltimore. Matsko left to become the Panthers’ offensive line coach in 2011.
