The university announced Thursday the quarterbacks coach job has been endowed and will officially be known as the Kevin M. Hogan Quarterbacks Coach. The endowment was made possible by what was referred to as "a very generous gift" from Stanford graduates Kim and Eddie Poplawki.
“Our lives have been incredibly blessed by our, nearly four-decade old, connection to Stanford, and it is truly a pleasure and privilege to be able to honor Kevin and his family in this manner,” Kim and Eddie Poplawski said in a statement. “In our minds, Kevin has set the gold standard on many different levels for student-athletes. He leads by example with conviction and grace. He competes with intense passion, but always with respect and tremendous humility.
