Sounds like an audition lasting a year from someone that isn't getting much interest as a head coach and a new AD not wanting to give a long commitment when hiriong a HC until he gets more used to the job and doesn't want his first big hire to turn into a disaster .
So Luck gets someone he trusts and played under and Reich gets a year to show he's deserving of being a Head Coach either at Stanford , the NFL or another college program
At the age of 63 Reich isn't waiting for an opportunity and Luck is giving him one without committing to him
A win-win hire helping both reach their goals and giving the new AD time to get his feet wet on the job before taking a plunge and committing to a HC with a long term contract
