A once-proud program is dead in the water until Shaw stands down. This is reality, folks, no matter how you feel about it. I don't care about your feelings. I care about Stanford Football -- which, at this moment, is at a historic low. Woeful doesn't begin to describe it.  Oh, yes, and today Lincoln Riley is the head coach at...USC. Looks like they're serious about football. Until I see a Harbaugh 2.0 running the show at Stanford--and this guy is out there somewhere--Stanford football remains in a coma.

This is true, even if many people here (and the powers-that-be) want to close their eyes, cover ears, and yell "NA NA NA" to make the obvious less clear.

But to put it most fundamentally, without a change at the head coaching position, Stanford football will never regain what is the first ingredient for a rebuild:  hope.
