This is the year - No Excuses!   The last decade has been a of immense proportions hoops disappointment.    This team should be in the Dance and if not, then it's past time to find a new coach that can get us there.   Monty showed everyone that it could be done well at Stanford, and then Harbaugh did the same for football.  We need to start working our way back to that level of achievement.

If Stanford had a tough-minded, hard-nosed mover-and-shaker for an A.D. and not a conflict-averse, budget-blundering milquetoast educrat, Jerrod Haase would be long-gone today and Stanford hoops might be headed towards something exciting right about now (for a change).

Of course, some of us will be lamenting the same thing about football a year from now if said milquetoast reverts to character this coming winter. That is, if he's not already caved for another extension.
