Stanford fired football coach Troy Taylor on Tuesday, less than a week after an ESPN report revealed that Taylor had twice been the subject of third-party investigations into complaints from athletic department employees over hostile behavior.

Luck was hired in November by new school President Jon Levin to rebuild Stanford's struggling football program after four straight seasons with a 3-9 record, including the last two with Troy Taylor in charge.

Luck moved quickly in his new role as general manager of the football program, hiring Reich less than a week after making the decision to fire Taylor following a report that became public saying Taylor had been investigated twice for allegedly mistreating staffers.

Andrew Luck played for Reich in 2018, passing for 4,593 yards, 39 touchdowns and 15 interceptions as the Colts went 10-6 and made the AFC playoffs.

Stanford hired former Indianapolis Colts and Carolina Panthers head coach Frank Reich to replace Troy Taylor, the team announced Monday. “I could not be more excited for our coaches, staff and players to have Frank as our head football coach for the 2025 season.

Stanford announced the hiring of longtime NFL coach Frank Reich as its interim head football coach for the 2025 season on Monday. Reich’s deal will only cover one season. After the 2025 campaign, Stanford will conduct a national search to find a permanent replacement for Troy Taylor,
