Stanford source: Luck leaning toward staying

http://scottfowlerobs.blogspot.com/2010/12/stanford-source-luck-leaning-toward.html

I'd take this with a grain of salt. The source obviously would like Luck to stay. I think Harbaugh is gone and that will give Luck the final push out the door. That said...I'm slowly preparing myself for disappointment.

f**k

the real question is, would luck turn down the NFL, and would harbaugh turn down the NFL/Michigan?

Maybe the first, but definitely not the second. In college football if you're an up and coming coach you strike when the iron is hot and get that paycheck. Think Rich Rodriguez will ever get another big break again? any of the people that have failed at Notre Dame?

i only ask because there's a good chance they're a package deal at Stanford. One's not going to stay without the other. That'll just hurt one another's stock.

this is assuming Luck has decided that the NFL is his future which he might not have.

True story guys. I was talking to a friend of mine that does psychic readings for a living about what to expect in 2011. I asked her about Andrew Luck specifically and whether he would declare or not. She said he wouldn't.

So there you go, we now have a psychic that has weighed in and said that Luck won't be a Panther next year. Take that for what it's worth. The only psychic powers I've ever seen her come up with specifically was that she told my girlfriend one day basically to be careful the next day because she had a bad feeling about it regarding my girlfriend and then she ended up getting into a pretty serious wreck the next day. So take it for what it's worth.

scott fowler says a thing

Andrew Luck gets it.

This is what everyone you ask seems to say about the Stanford quarterback, and that was my first impression as well after I asked Luck some questions for the first time Friday.

The redshirt sophomore will likely be the No.1 pick in the 2011 NFL draft if he chooses to come out early. That’s what Carolina Panther fans are hoping for, of course, but Luck made no indication which way he was leaning on that huge decision that must be made by Jan.15th.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
