...the articles of indictment have been drawn up.  Let's be honest.  The Cardboard is a sunny, peaceful place compared to the Bootleg.  Over there Shaw's shortcomings and future have a much rougher go.  And the critique isn't based so much on a "bad" season than a wider vision of Shaw's supposedly self-evident deep weaknesses and failings.  Hard to walk that back or get those who express those views to admit they're wrong.  Only national playoff stature and 100% recruiting success will do.  Or, maybe not even then.

On the Bootleg these days the inmates are really running the asylum. The negativism knows no bounds. Shaw is a miserable excuse for a head coach who is irrevocably leading Stanford back to the days of Buddy and Wlat. Should he be fired? Well, no, because Muir is even more incompetent and would probably get someone even worse.
