Oliver Luck joins NFL safety committee

It’s become popular to ask NFL players whether they’d let their sons play football. So it’s fitting then, for the NFL to receive input on safety matters from a former NFL player whose son plays football at the NFL level.

The league announced Tuesday that West Virginia University A.D. Oliver Luck, the father of Colts quarterback Andrew Luck, will join the league’s Player Safety Advisory Panel.

Luck played quarterback at West Virginia, and he was a second-round pick of the Houston Oilers in 1982. He spent five years in the NFL.

You know, if the bigwigs at the NFL weren't so damnned unlikable, they'd not have so many problems with players/referee unions that are just as unlikable. Is there really not anybody equally qualified without a blatant conflict of interest?

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Now that's a thought, maybe they're looking at the college ranks? Maybe not head coaches but DC/assistant DCs with league experience?

beast (30-Jan) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.

beast (30-Jan) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Who knows who they're interviewing? I mean, nobody knew about Hafley and then out of nowhere he was hired

beast (30-Jan) : I wonder what's taking so long with hiring a DL coach, 2 of the 3 known to interview have already been hired elsewhere.
