Stanford football is not one of the 20 or so elite programs that have been consistently competitive for most of a century. But it had its Kerr/Warner/Thornhill period, Coach Shag and the T Formation, 1951, Ralston, The Sheriff and Harballs/Shaw. Not bad.

Hoops has had Liusetti, The NCAA title, a couple of good teams under Dallmar and Monty. Not much tradition overall.

Perhaps Monty was Arthur and those years were Camelot. Never to be repeated.

Quite right. Stanford is the Stanford of college hoops. Hell, historically even the WEENIES are superior.
