Skov is not in a coaching role, and while a great player I don’t think he’s ever had experience coaching. Same with Luck, he’s the team GM, not a coach, and does not have coaching experience.

Former players have some advantages (they know the admissions landscape, they can credibly talk to players about Stanford opportunities, they will be less likely to leave if successful), but at the end of the day, I would like to have a better, more experienced coach than one whose primary qualification is that the were a beloved former player.
