The talk started three years ago about a possible quarterback that could come and change one NFL teams destiny.
A quarterback that was mature among men his age started three seasons for Stanford and led Stanford to an 11-2 record and a BCS berth in the Fiesta Bowl.
Luck set new Stanford records for career and season touchdown passes with 82 and 37.
During the NFL combine, unofficially Luck was clocked at 4.59 which was as fast as the previous number one pick Cam Newton.
