Polian Attending Stanford/cal Game To Observe Luck

[Coltsman1788]

Just an FYI...

Read a San Francisco Examiner article this morning which mentioned that Bill Polian will be at tonight's Stanford game to scout Luck. As you recall, Polian also attended the Duke/Stanford game earlier this season.

Given Polian's scheduled attendance, the Stanford/Cal game is a good one to keep an eye on to see how Luck performs and responds after last week's disappointing set back.

Good, hopefully Luck shines and Polian is convinced that he will pick him.

I may be totally wrong on this but doesn't his son play on the team which would give him an out for "tampering"?

Sounds like a plan to me.

Polian's son is the assistant special teams coordinator on the Stanford coaching staff.

Never mind. Found it in a link:

One of Polian's sons, Brian, is Stanford's assistant special teams coordinator

My bad. He is affiliated with the team but not as a player.

Looks like we cross-quoted.

As you probably already know Luck has some interesting connections with not only Polian but Peyton also.

He has participated in Manning's quarterback summer camp in the past and has also served as one of the camp counselors. Peyton also spoke with him after Luck announced his decision to return to Stanford last year.

The game is also on ESPN tonight at 10:15 I believe if anyone's interested. I'm sure there are many than want to see what he's does after loosing last week.

the funny thing is, Polian (during his monday night show) said that he is NOT going so that he can scout Luck, he just happens to be going to that game....but who expects the truth from Bill, anyhow?

Bill is a funny guy. Now watch as Jim Irsay declares on his Twitter, "Polian is going to scout Andrew Luck!!! ::Happy dance::" Then Polian face palms.

I don't think you can "tamper" with a college player.

Can you clarify?
