Seriously, when was the last time Stanford had this much publicity? The Princeton Review's list of most successful graduates? They have been in the news lately due to such characters as QB Andrew Luck and Head Coach Jim Harbaugh.
Andrew Luck... It is hard to give the kid grief for going back to school for his degree but he is giving up over $40 million to do so. Who is to say that he will not be the next Matt Leinart or Jake Locker? What else can he do at Stanford after delivering their first ever 12 win season? Win a Pac-12 Championship or a national title? Not likely. There are few times when someone is the without a doubt, consensus number one pick. I hate to say it but Andrew, you should have taken the money and gone to the Carolina Panthers.
Jim Harbaugh... You have already lost the respect of many by interviewing with the Miami Dolphins while they already had a coach. Come on Jim, especially after playing the "class card" during all of your interviews following the Orange Bowl. You are better than that. I completely understand taking the job with the 49ers for a 5 year/ $25 million dollar contract. Good luck next year but it's hard to like you know after the way you treated current head coaches.
Now that Stanford women's basketball team has defeated Connecticut and the Jim Harbaugh-Andrew Luck drama appears to be over, see you later Cardinal.
