Frank Reich has taken on the role of head coach at Stanford temporarily, following Troy Taylor's dismissal due to controversies surrounding his conduct. Acknowledging the need for a clean slate, Reich aims to embrace the unique situation and build towards a promising 2025 season. He has a previous connection with GM Andrew Luck, whom he coached in the NFL, leading to his hiring. Reich is focused solely on football and appreciates Luck's support in minimizing off-field responsibilities, allowing for a concentrated effort on the team's performance.
Reich was announced Monday as the one-year solution after the firing of Troy Taylor. We said, `This is unique. Let's embrace it together and 2025 can be a very special season.'
Hired last November to oversee the football program, Luck's first call upon firing Taylor was to Reich. The two were together in Indianapolis in 2018.
I told Linda going into this cycle I would only consider something if it was the right person and the right place. The timing of this was different.
Luck afforded the opportunity for Reich to be minimally involved with things that don't include the field of play. My focus is football.
