1. You can recruit well and still underperform to talent;
2. You can win a lot of games and still should have won more;
3. You can have a sound offensive philosophy and still make AYFKM play calls that are indefensible; and
4. Perhaps most disturbingly, you can win a lot of games and still preside over a fragile program (based on attendance, anyway). There are many reasons for this disturbing point - some unrelated to what happens on the gridiron - but one factor is style of play.
In sum, you can be a great coach - appreciated by all die-hard Stanford fans - and still have room for improvement.
