Don’t forget the influence of the Provost on athletics.  Stanford athletics survived the Gerhart Casper years despite the fact that as a German, he had no clue about, and very little sympathy for, collegiate athletics because Condi Rice was the single biggest advocate for athletics the school has ever had. It is perhaps not a surprise that Stanford athletics suffered in the wake of her departure for DC.

Unfortunately, the view of our current provost is not very positive, from an athletics perspective.
