Something about the urban legend of "no one turns us down" smacks of Shaw's ludicrous (and harmful) notion of seeking out "Stanford men" as recruits. This is right there with MLB scouts of a generation ago who would make judgements on talent based on the physical appearance of a minor league prospect, as in, "He looks like a ballplayer to me. He's got that ballplayer jawline, etc. etc. " Yes, a lot of grown men actually believed this horse****.

Life is too short to waste on crap football.
