OT - Stanford names OC position after Andrew Luck
If you hadn't heard, the position formerly known as Stanford Offensive Coordinator is now the
"Andrew Luck Director of Offense". The name change was brought about by a large, and anonymous, donation.
Besides it being strange that a offensive coordinator is called something other than an offensive coordinator, how must current ALDO Pep Hamilton feel about now having his title memorialize a guy he coached. Also, in the unlikely but nevertheless possible event that Luck pulls a Ryan Leaf at the NFL level, how stupid does that title seem? I'm pretty sure Penn State is happy they don't have a Cameron (Ex-Tiger on the brain) Aaron Maybin Emperor of Linebackers and WVU thrilled they don't have a Pac-Man Jones Minister of the Secondary.

This is incredibly stupid.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
This is stupid.
This is stupid.
This has to be a joke right?
I think this is pretty sad. This basically says that at Stanford, a couple years of good play (that didn't even result in a conference championship) are so rare and highly valued that they're more important than the school and the program. I hope something like this never happens at Michigan.
