Fair points all. Add that the media pays little attention to Stanford sports. Even in the best days, KNBR and the Chronicle didn't cover a lot. Does Stanford have a sports marketing program?

It appears to be a chicken/egg scenario. Does nobody care about Stanford football because the media don't cover it, or do the media not cover Stanford football because nobody cares about it?

Gerhart, Harbaugh, Luck, and McCaffrey and McCaffrey, but it's hard to gain mindshare when the Warriors, Giants, and 49ers remain the focus of Bay Area sports fans. I would argue that the Giants and 49ers are the most popular teams in the area because they still attract a lot of attention when they are doing poorly. The Warriors are popular, but they have been a juggernaut for a few years now. They had a small-but-loyal following when they were perennial losers.
