So does Bailey get to follow in Curtis Robinson's footsteps, an even higher rated LB from Mater Dei, who is one of far too many elite recruits Stanford Football has failed to either take advantage of and/or develop? Or will he live up to his recruiting billing?

It's easy to understand why Stanford fan reaction to a commitment from this player isn't what it might have been a year or two ago.

Do the fans trust David Shaw to surround players like Bailey with the coaching and development needed to make them into difference making players?  My assumption is the answer to that question is "no" for the majority of Stanford fans on Dec. 5, 2021.

Robinson made somebody's practice squad but I dont know if he stuck. He had way too many injury issues at Stan but played well his 5th year, and we didn't seem to know where to play him, unfortunately.
