Former Stanford star Andrew Luck is returning to the Cardinal to become the football program's general manager, Luck told ESPN in a phone interview.
Luck, 35, has accepted a newly created role at Stanford, which will place him above the entire program and is a distinct evolution from the traditional college general manager role. The hire could loom as a harbinger for structural changes in college football front offices across the sport.
Luck's role involves everything Stanford football touches, both football and business-wise. The football-specific duties of his role will include managing the coaching staff, player personnel staff, recruiting, roster management and student-athlete experience.
