Stanford, what I am hearing out hear

Ultimately most of these kids went to Stanford to win, and win damn it in front of other teams fans. That didn't happen this year and I'm guessing maybe the atmosphere down there isn't the greatest.

Are any of these guys good? Maybe they getting their couches sold for them.

None of the names jump out. However, 12 transferring out seems troubling.BayDawg said:Are any of these guys good? Maybe they getting their couches sold for them.

How can a team survive that? If Shaw is going the next guy is going to be fucked for years.GrundleStiltzkin said:

Last Sunday before Redskins game local radio was talking about a “splash” hire, and that Bruce Allen wanted Shaw. You want to see a demoralized fan base and apocalyptic attendance at games. Look no further than the Redskins. Come to think of it, David Shaw would be right at home with 60% of the stadium empty or filled with opposing fans.

Doing some fuzzy math between 247's scholarship breakdown and Stanford's roster page, assuming Costello leaves and everybody else stays, one dozen departing seniors puts Stanford at 64 scholarships. That's not the end of the world if they bring in a full class.
The positional breakdown is pretty crazy, though: Discounting true freshmen, they'll have nine offensive linemen (zero listed as guards!) compared to eight running backs and seven tight ends. Only five receivers. A whopping ONE interior defensive lineman, compared to nine linebackers and six defensive ends. Thirteen DBs seems about right, but a single long snapper and single kicker sums up the specialists, so either Jet Toner does all the punting and kicking or they've got a walk-on handling some of that.
They actually have the 20th ranked class at the moment (even with a scholarship to a long snapper), with 18 commits, evenly distributed positionally. They're going to continue to have some UW-2019esque holes in their roster for a couple of years, but it looks like they're recruiting smartly to eventually fix the problem. Even if they don't take another commit this cycle, they'll be carrying more scholarship players than they usually do. Losing these 12 isn't going to kill them, but strange recruiting in previous years (two total OL in '18, one transferring out) might.

Fuck Stanfurd. I’ve been waiting for Shaw to start slipping and he just fell the fuck down.
