May 12, NFL Colts Quarterback, at Rotary
On May 12, the Rotary Club of Indianapolis welcomed Andrew Luck, quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts of the National Football League (NFL).
This was an evening event hosted by the Rotary Club of Indianapolis. It included brief remarks by Andrew Luck and a one-on-one conversation moderated by Dave Calabro Eyewitness 13 Sports Director.
He played college football for Stanford University, won the Maxwell Award and Walter Camp Award as college football’s player of the year, and was recognized as an All-American. He was the runner-up for the Heisman Trophy in both 2010 and 2011. He was named the Offensive Player of the Year in the Pac-12 (Pac-10) Conference in both 2010 and 2011. CBS Sports draft analyst Rob Rang called Luck the best prospect he has ever scouted, while the Kansas City Star put him in line with LeBron Jamesand Bryce Harper as “the most hyped amateurs in recent sports memory”.
Although widely projected as the first overall selection in the 2011 NFL Draft, Luck decided to return to Stanford for his redshirt junior season. A year later, he was selected first overall in the 2012 NFL Draft.
In his first three professional seasons, Luck has led the Colts to three playoff appearances including two division titles in 2013 and2014, also earning a Pro Bowl selection in each season. Also, in the 2013-14 NFL playoffs, he led the Colts to the second largest playoff comeback in NFL history.
