LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- If there's ever been a coaching job someone was born to take, Stefan LeFors just found it. The former University of Louisville quarterback was named head football coach at Gallaudet University in Washington, D.C. It's his first head job at the college level — but that hardly tells the whole story. Gallaudet is the world's only university where every program and service is designed to serve deaf and hard-of-hearing students. It's the birthplace of American Sign Language.
