He was cordial and friendly to BC, but then again everybody is cordial and friendly to BC, the Emperor of the Board (no dig intended). Walsh was another cold fish who could go thermonuclear on occasion. Wound tighter than a Dabney Coleman character. Walsh II was like the tenth planet from the sun, mentally in almost another galaxy.
Just my opinion but I believe Shaw has gone comfortable. It is probably time for him to use his talent and intelligence somewhere else, somewhere away from football. I am positive that he will be a success wherever he goes. Tired blood permeates the current staff and I don't think he has what Stanford needs going forward. Then again I think Harbaugh is the best thing since Pop Warner invented the Double Wing, an attitude that could get me tarred and feathered at a Cardboard picnic.
If calling Shaw unbelievably stubborn is attacking his personality, then I plead guilty. I don't think the course he's pursuing is going to fix the program. If he can't get back to respectability (8 wins) by the 2023 season he needs to go.
