I would be all in favor of Stanford hiring Deion Sanders as Head Football Coach. My point is how does he fit the cultural identity of Stanford in any way? Obviously, he's matured a lot since he was a player, but if we went back in time when Sanders played for FSU, I'm sure we could find any number of Stanford people pointing to "Prime Time" as the epitome of what was wrong with college sports at that time.
Stanford can't have it both ways. It can't dip its feet into the big time college football waters half way if it wants to be as relevant as the university leadership seems to want it to be. Admission standards are one thing, but everything else is another if you want to compete at the top.
