We have no idea how Pat Forde even polled all of Stanford fandom for his rating  ::)

Sampling posts on the Bootie maybe?  ::)

Yeah.  On the Cardboard Shaw is about a 4.6; on the Bootleg, about a 1.8.  On Rule of Tree, about a 3.9 except for one guy (CRS SportsFiction) who was spewing a high volume of vitriol during the middle of the season while we were losing games.

Petersen is the only coach in the Pac-12 who has established himself as possibly being better than Shaw.  Helton had a terrific year (from game 5 on anyway) and the win in Seattle was gigantic, but the rest of his wins were either at home, narrow squeakers, and/or against subpar competition.  Franklin and McSorry choked the Rose Bowl away to them.
