Who gives a shit? Stanford is only good because they got great coaching. They've always been a great institution, but kids go to fucking Auburn without thinking twice.
Stanford pretty much puts the lie to every doog argument about CP not "knowing how to recruit 5-star athletes." A truly great coach (like Harbaugh) doesn't have to fill every recruiting class with the uber-stalked, 5-star, Scout circlejerk guys. Recruiting is important, but there are lots of great athletes out there. A truly great coach gets who he gets, then develops them.
