I sure hope JD and company are doing some very detailed exit interviews to get some indication of what is going on within the program.  His corporate background from Bain, eBay, Nike, etc... should be helpful here and he's surrounded himself with some quality people.

Supposedly he met with players that are leaving as some of those student athletes reached out to him to voice their concerns/displeasure with current staff. Some of the parents of players leaving reacted out to AD as well. It’s not as simple as just wanting more playing time or money.  

 Everyone is still waiting for what comes next. But Donahoe is very involved in this.

Thanks for this and I'm glad to hear it.  This is what I would have expected from this new team.   Very curious to see how this unfolds.  I always thought that Kate would have been better served leaving the Stanford staff some years ago to go and get experience elsewhere.  Many of us knew that Tara would remain at Stanford for some time.

I believe the time has come and gone for Mr. Donahoe to announce a leadership change.  It should have been done shortly after Stanford's bad loss to BYU.  Making a change now (right in the middle of the portal period), doesn't seem to make sense.  Transferring players want to know who their coach is.  I've been posting for a long time for coach Paye to be replaced, but at this moment, I'd be extremely surprised if coach Paye does not return.
