Dave Fowkes: http://www.examiner.com/stanford-cardina...ice-update
And Kyle Bonagura's flash reports are replete with interesting tidbits: http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball.../team/STAN
Surprised we didn't hear the full Shaw quotation on Anderson, calling him "special." With him and Seale, looks like we have a glut at LB and RB. I think rotating Yankey in at LT is a worthwhile precaution--while highly-rated freshmen offensive linemen contribute to good teams all the time, you don't want to count on that at all. So you might as well prepare for that particular bad-case scenario.
UPDATE: Fowkes also transcribed the post-practice media thing from Shaw. http://www.examiner.com/stanford-cardina...ts_article
Aziz Shittu mentioned by name as someone who can contribute. Also intriguing that the staff has identified a couple of guys in recruiting that can maybe emulate Fleener; also says "The hard part is sometimes convincing guys getting recruited as defensive ends to come play tight end." Sounds like the Luke Kaumatule-to-TE thing hinted at in signing day might come to fruition.
