Austin Hooper (Stanford, TE) Selling Couch for NFL Sofa
- Thread starter CokeGreaterThanPepsi
- Start date
It can only help. With so many NFL openings, the success of Stanford, the success Harbaugh had at the next level, I wonder if this is the year Shaw moves on.
I'm not saying he's Harbaugh, but he's lasted long enough and performed well enough and produced next level guys long enough for an NFL GM to not feel like they are pressing with an offer.

Rector can come back, and so can two of their OL... Garnett and Murphy are gone on the OL for sure.
As of today they are losing 11 starters: LT, LG, TE, QB, WR, DL, DL, OLB, ILB, S, CB... If Rector goes that makes it 12.
Stanford is fucking annoying because they list all of their players by their academis year. It's bullshit and I hate them.

So what you are saying is that it's not my fault.
I could have sworn that I heard that Stanford was losing 4 OL this year ... where did I hear that?
Any team that is losing half (or more) of their starters are bound to struggle the following season ... and their early season schedule isn't going to give them a soft landing.

Whoever said it probably looked at their online roster and saw players listed as seniors and figured it was their last season, they just don't acknowledge redshirt year stuff, it's weird and shit. I hate them like I said. As someone who keeps track of every player in the conference with @Mrspetersen they are very frustrating. The only thing worse is Utah with their mormon shit and kids going on missions, it's hard to track, I hate them too.

Stanford had 8 guys get 1st or 2nd team all league. With Hooper going that means 7 of the 8 are gone. They definitely will be rebuilding and won't come close to the #4 SRS but they can be a good team. Their WRs are replaceable, Dalton Schultz could be good at TE and Chryst at QB could be very good. McCaffrey is all world of course. A few of the backups on defense like Thomas and Tyler had very good seasons and could be stars next year.
The pac-12 and each division will be totally wide open next year. Could be a year where 6-3 with a tiebreaker wins the north.
If UW beats Stanford then we will be the big favorite in the north heading into October. But can we hold onto it?

Agree that with the way Stanford has recruited, they will find good players to replace at some point.
With an opening schedule next year consisting of:
KState
Bye
USC
@UCLA
@Washington (Friday)
Washington State
@Notre Dame
Stanford will be lucky to get through that stretch at 4-2 IMO.

Stanford is in plug-n-play mode. They have a bunch of 4 star guys filling the spots these guys are leaving. The QB is likely better than Hogan. They'll drop a little in terms of experience but will likely be picked to win the North again.
