"Tavita Pritchard is exactly the right head coach at the right time to help us build on the foundation of this season and lead Stanford football to its next great era. Coach Pritchard is a culture builder, a teacher of football of the highest caliber, and a humble yet determined servant leader who is committed to the success of Stanford's student-athletes. I could not be more excited to welcome Tavita, Caroline and their family back to campus."
"Pritchard will succeed Frank Reich, the former NFL coach who took over as the interim head coach this season after Troy Taylor was fired amid off-field controversy. The Cardinal is 4-7, its highest win total in five seasons. In the release, the school said Reich will remain as a senior advisor to Pritchard. Pritchard, 38, will become the 37th head coach in program history. He is a 2009 graduate of Stanford, and currently serves as the quarterbacks coach of the Washington Commanders."
