Anyone else surprised this guy hasn't been added to the staff yet?

Yes, I know he's had the Amazon gig, but have to think Stanford Football is where his heart is. VP of Analytics title possibly. Stanford needs to be on the cutting edge with analytics. Are the VR headsets still a thing?

I could see him being a really strong recruiter -- high energy, smart, breathes Stanford and can sell it. He's known to say "theres no better place to win than Stanford"

I can't be the only one who's thought this. I know he lives in Palo Alto as well

Looks like this might be the messaging we're rolling with this year playing with a temp coach. Not sure it will resonate with the players, but it should. This is by no means a directionless program

Congrats to jason, our former MBB great and first round draft pick. Keep forgetting he was a trailblazer at the time, becoming first openly gay athlete to play in one of the 4 main US sports.

Had some good things to say about Stanford.

Stanford is projected to get the Saturday night ESPN slot (7:30 PM Pacific Time) vs BYU on the road (September 6) and Boston College at home (September 13).

Hawaii might be broadcast on CBS but the date appears to be locked in for Saturday, August 23.

Apologies if this was posted elsewhere but definitely worth a read:


I found this line to be particularly poignant:

"I think that was the biggest shock to me, just about how much sports matter here in Texas," she said. "I remember my first football game here and just seeing how many people were here, that was definitely different."

Via Athlon Sports. Pretty interesting and entertaining read.

2026 3-star defensive end Lucas Shanafelt just committed to Stanford. Stanford freshman outside linebacker Mickey Vaccarello went to Peters Township as well. Shanafelt visited Stanford earlier this month on the 7th. Pitt was on him hard.

Hey y'all, just letting you know I'll be leaving for a trip to Italy for a couple of weeks. I depart this evening. I get back two weeks from Sunday I think it is. So, things might be a little slower on my end, but I'll do my best to check in when I can. Thankfully, I have an international travel routine down when it comes to managing my job here, so I trust everything will be fine. But still wanted to give you all a heads up. Also, if anyone has any tips on what they've most liked about Italy, that would be great. I'll pretty much be visiting the entire country. I've been to Rome before, but that was part of a mediterranean cruise, so I didn't see much of the country outside of that.

Ben, any idea of how that affects your site in the future?

Breylan Thompson, Yale to Stanford

In most cases, transferring out of a school like Yale means a decline in academic rigor by default. Breylan Thompson was not one such case -- the freshman defensive back transferred across the country to one of America's other elite universities, joining the Stanford Cardinal in Palo Alto, California.

Thompson tallied 31 total tackles, three tackles for loss and six passes defended in his lone season with the Bulldogs.

Any info on how Stanford Football is doing and what is "phase two"? Is that Fisher Anderson (wearing #74) in the 3rd pic next to Ziron Brown?

The big news: Talamaivao is gone. Netter is now listed as sole OL coach.

Edsall is now listed as TE assistant as Byham was promoted.

The open recruiting assistant position has been filled by India Zepeda, previously a recruiting assistant at Fresno State under Garcia.

Bottom line how does this tug of war effect Stanford's future? I'm not knowledgeable enough on this to opine. But hope others here can.

Campbell the Texas Panhandle/Permian Basin Oil & Gas billionaire that bankrolled Texas Tech's snagging of Canaday and Bailey.

Stanford tops the list with 2 (Luck and CMC) which ties with Ohio State, LSU (technically 3) and Miami for the most players and more than Alabama, Michigan, Notre Dame, Georgia, Florida, and Texas to name a few.

What a time.

2025 point guard Jaylen Petty has officially signed with Stanford. Team release is here.

Our 15 stroke lead after 3 rounds has ballooned to 23 strokes early in the 4th round. Top to bottom this may be the strongest team in the history of the NCAA. Maybe not the best match play team but in stroke play pretty much unbeatable.
