There is no questioning the fact that ‘The David Shaw Era’ has been the greatest run for Stanford Football in the long and proud history of the incomparable university. As I have written before in regard to Coach Shaw, having been a three-sport athlete on The Farm, and having played football for legends of the game Bill Walsh and Dennis Green, he himself is a living legend. David Shaw is 81-26 in eight years as the Stanford head coach, with two Rose Bowl victories in his three New Year’s Day trips to Pasadena, three PAC-12 Championships, four PAC-12 Coach of the Year awards, and five PAC-12 North Division Titles.
