Some of the issues touched upon:
main non-injury challenges
Costellos decision
Assessment of Mills
Turley's departure and injuries
Effect of injuries on practices
Official visits before big visit
Offensive changes in the prior off season
Injury outlook
Staff changes (or lack thereof)
Contract extension (no comment)
My insight from reading the interview is that Shaw is good at revealing only the information he wants to reveal, and that those looking for a major self-flagellation or sign that there are going to be major changes will be very disappointed. That being said, I don't know that even if there were planned changes that Shaw would reveal them at a forum like this, and he is very careful with how he chooses his words.

I was just happy to read him FINALLY taking clear responsibility for the execution errors throughout the season. I wish he had been this clear in his postgame pressers.
Really frustrated that he doesn't seem to plan to make any changes in his staff, despite all the execution errors that they are presumably responsible for, as well as the recruiting whiffs over multiple years in key positions, and now key DL members transferring with some confirmation that it's not because they aren't admitted to grad school at Stanford. It boggles the mind that Shaw doesn't see the need to make changes in his staff...
I guess 6-6 is what we should expect next season
