Just watched the TT press conference. Extremely impressed. I loved Troy's enthusiasm, articulateness, intellect, and values. He has infectious mental energy, is very well spoken, and thinks quickly on his feet. He radiates genuineness and affection for his players. He really seems to get Stanford and showed me that he really values "creativity" in his play calling and in the hiring of assistant coaches. I look forward to a much more exciting and compelling brand of Stanford football in the near future. I believe Troy is likely to be quite successful in retaining the previous commits and in bringing in some excellent new talent. I think he'll make a powerfully positive impression on recruits, previous commits, and their families. He will represent Stanford with class and conviction and be able to connect well with the young people he meets. I feel even better now about TT as our new fb coach than I did two days ago when I posted I preferred him to Jason Garrett. I think we may have struck gold with this hire. I noticed how on two occasions he said he expected this to be the "final stop" in his coaching career. In short, I think Stanford hired a person with the ability to resurrect this program and make it exciting to go to Cardinal football games once again.
