Right after Condi left we went to the Rose Bowl.  Also MBB continued to thrive
Ok for 4 more years :)
However shortly after Condi left Stanford hired Robin the Terrible as admissions Director so you’re right BC

Exactly.  It’s not like the provost is going to affect what happens on the field immediately.  But the Provost affects the direction of admissions, to give but one example.  I am fairly certain that Condi would not have signed off on Mamlet’s hiring, had she still been in the role, and would have heard about the discontent in athletics and let that be known to admissions had she still been in her role.

It took a few years, but admissions disputes contributed to Montgomery’s decision to go to the NBA.
