Nothing against Da Silva, who made great strides in his four years at Stanford, but I’m not sure he ranks high enough in the pantheon of Stanford players to deserve an endowed coaching position in his name.

I don't agree that a coaching position should be endowed only in honor of the most athletically accomplished Stanford players. Oscar was apparently an exemplary student, researcher, and person in addition to being an excellent athlete, why not celebrate the package? Especially at Stanford!
