It's destiny at this point..Nothing the Colts can do will stop it. This puts to rest the rumors of Luck/his family pulling a Eli and refusing to play here.Father of Stanford QB knows KC
West Virginia athletic director Oliver Luck didn’t need his program caught up in Big 12 expansion rumors to be connected with this part of the country.
Chiefs fans are beginning to become familiar with his son, Andrew, the Stanford quarterback who is widely viewed as the top prospect for the 2012 NFL draft.
While attending an athletic director’s conference Tuesday in Grapevine, Texas, Oliver Luck said that he doesn’t play favorites with teams that could draft his son. But if it’s the Chiefs, he has a comfort level with the organization.
While working in NFL Europe, he reported to the late Chiefs owner, Lamar Hunt. And before getting his current job, Luck developed a friendship through his work in soccer with current Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt, Lamar’s son.
“I’ve always felt a connection to the Hunts and Kansas City,” Luck said. “Kansas City’s a nice place, it really is. But it’s a long season. A lot of things can happen.”
As for West Virginia as a Big 12 expansion candidate and realignment, Luck would not comment.
