Like WIM, I'm not too clear on Anderson's role in creating defensive schemes. But he seems to have a great feel for recruiting, and combined with Taggart, who is himself an ace recruiter, the two of them would make a really formidable team. I think, regionally, Anderson has worked the SW, while coordinating the overall recruiting effort and helping to guide prospective players through admissions (someone correct me if I'm wrong on that). I seem to see his name linked to a lot of the kids we brought out of Arizona (Andrus Peat, Drew Terrell, Devon Carrington).
Should he go, I'm thinking we are OK with the LB coaching, assuming that Shaw makes a good hire, and Kotulski was satisfactory with the ILBs (they obviously played well this year.) With recruiting, Mike Sanford has had good success in his short time here, so I wonder if he would take on a more prominent role. edit: Just noticed on the official Stanford athletic website roster that Sanford is already listed as recruiting coordinator.
Always tough to lose good coaches, but if we only lose one or two position coaches after this great season, that would be great.
