Very little of which has happened since 2015 (one division title), after which we have seen a 3-year slide as well as a postseason interview last week that seems to indicate that Shaw isn't going to make any changes in his coaching staff, clock management, game planning, play calling, or anything else.
I don't see where he'd jump to the Snyder dumpster fire, but there will be some other openings that could be more enticing. I don't expect he will take any of them.
Imagine if the past five years Shaw took Stanford from 4-8, 9-5, 9-4, 10-3, 12-2 [winning the Rose Bowl and finishing #3 in the nation] then Shaw would be the hottest commodity in college football. But the exact opposite has happened.
Imagine if he had gone 10-3, 4-7, and 3-7-1 over the past 3 years, he'd be...
Bill Walsh.
Of course, we all know what a horrible football coach Bill Walsh was.
Didn't Walsh retire after that 3-season run, believing he just didn't have the commitment it takes to be an effective D1 football coach?
Hey, maybe you're onto something . . . .
