Be careful what you wish for, Passion. In Stanford's history since Ralston, two things have happened: the coach has been awful and has been fired, or the coach has had a modicum of success and sought greener pastures. The only exception I can think of was Willingham, who stayed for seven years before seeking the big paycheck. Finding a good coach has not been easy. A coach who wins elsewhere is not always going to win at his next gig, and most coaches find Stanford's admissions to be a detriment, rather than an asset.
