The ACC’s Stanford Cardinal are bringing back an on-field school legend in a newly created role, General Manager.
“The 35-year-old Luck, who quarterbacked the Cardinal from 2008-2011 and was a two-time Heisman Trophy finalist, is going back "home" for this newly created role that will put him atop the program's hierarchy. The GM job will see Luck involved in everything Stanford football related, including handling the coaching staff, player personnel staff, recruiting and roster management.
There is a business side to Luck's new gig. He will deal with important aspects of the NCAA experience such as fundraising, sponsorships and alumni relations.”
Interesting move with no obvious downside, right?
