Stanford Cardinal (official thread)

Andrew Luck Seen Playing Scout Team Quarterback at Stanford Spring Practice

The 35-year-old can't quit it just yet.

Upon his abrupt retirement from the NFL back in 2019, the question immediately began to be asked: Will Andrew Luck ever play football again?

Though he never did return to the field—despite an attempt from Frank Reich, the then-Indianapolis Colts coach, to lure him back—Luck is now serving as general manager for the Stanford Cardinal football team and scratching the itch in a different way.

In a video shared by Stanford on 247Sports on X (formerly Twitter), Luck could be seen playing scout team quarterback during a Stanford spring ball practice. Check it out:

Just sayin': I would think that the Stanford coaches would want to give an actual QB on the team the "reps". I guess it was just a publicity stunt.

"Come to Stanford, and in practice you can catch passes from Andrew Luck."

Or...
Next week's QB is a good pocket-passer. All of our backups are running quarterbacks. Andrew Luck gives the best practice for our defense.

I think your "publicity stunt" guess is probably right.

Was going to mention that with all the Venture Capitalists from Stanford that have made millions, apparently none were athletes, else Stanford would field 11 5*s on each side of the ball, then Brody's above missive shot down that opinion. Believe Stanford has an endowment in the Harvard/Yale range, yet football has become the doormat of their athletic endeavors. Their sports programs are #2 nationwide (in number) to only The Ohio State University, but are better to a degree that gives them title to Director's Cup more often than not. Do believe that football is the worst team fielded. Anyway, $50M is some serious money, and expect them to take a place in the bidding for some excellent West Coast players.

Meant to say three time zones versus two. Just got done looking at investments, and do indeed have more than several 'three baggers' present. Which means price is now 3x what it was purchased for.....Lived across freeway from SMU, and trust me, not a bunch of tea imbibed at that place, unless it's Long Island Iced...thanks for your service Cinci...
