Stanford GM Andrew Luck announced today that Troy Taylor is being fired amidst an investigation of his treatment of staff.
Dual-purpose post, one part for relevant for transfers, the other just for the larger scale evolution of college football.
For transfers: Stanford's talent has been dramatically reduced but there are a few names that catch my eye. First and foremost is Emmet Mosely V. He is a rising sophomore who set the Stanford record for most receptions and receiving yards by a freshman last year. He did that after missing part of summer practice and the first 3 games of the season, too. He would come in and be WR1. He's from California but did entertain SEC offers in high school, I believe Alabama was 2nd in his recruitment. Vandy should try and send the house.
Aside from Mosely there is not much, but O-lineman Fisher Anderson was a highly touted prospect out of Franklin who has all the tools to be great but hasn't made a big impact in his 4 years at Stanford. Khalil House is also a tackle who was extremely highly regarded but struggled down the stretch.
Larger scale: This is the first time a GM has ever fired a coach in college football. Opinions on this growth within the game?
