First, no matter how many here ball their hands into fist and scream till they are blue in the face Shaw is  going nowhere.  And if he was, who do you think they could hire?  You think folks are going to flock to an opening for a program that means little or nothing to the University?  In any area that doesn’t give a sh-t about college football?  Anyone they’d get would be an untried assistant who thinks he can use Stanford as a stepping stone.  Or someone with previous ties that failed  elsewhere - like Derrick Mason. Or, hey, I got it Mike Bloomgren. He won 4 at Rice year - which is a good job. You’d LOVE that.


As for his assistants, yeah it’s time for changes.  But I will remind you that at one time Lance A and Akina were the cat’s meow to folks here.  Concern being Lance was going to take a HC job.  Akina being lauded as one of the best defensive backs coach in the country. Lance hasn’t  forgotten how to coach, nor has Akina.  But talent matters. So,it’s time to mix things up.

 Offensively, Tavita always been your whipping boy.  Well at least since Blomgren left.  And Pep before him.  There are any number of folks on the board that know it all and  I’m sure could do better. So, I hope some of you are applying.

In any event, yeah it’s time to shake up the staff.  

More importantly, it’s time to go back to the roots.  Recruit for intellectual brutality and start playing that boring brand of run oriented complimentary power football that simply brought wins.  Look to SF or Wisconsin for your o-coordinator.  Both excellent schemes predicated on the run - with a bit of imagination thrown in.
