Stanford's Class --- WTF? - Irish Envy

**Irish Canuck** · 01-02-2013, 03:06 PM

Stanford is going to be ranked in the top 5. Had an excellent season, and wins the Rose Bowl.

But..... Recruiting class is ranked 92nd in nation by rivals having only 4 four star and 6 three stars.

I guess this run of greatness will be short lived.

I don't get it.

Total lack of effort?

They finished with the 6th ranked class last year... So WTF is up in 2013?

It's puzzling to me as well. Perhaps Shaw just isn't much of a recruiter.

Seriously shocked. Shaw has to step it up. He can obviously coach, but you have to have studs. 92nd.... geesh.

Maybe Ty Willingham gave him his recruiting secrets.

Stanford's o-line class was so stupid good last year that they could survive a bad recruiting year simply by running the ball through the struggles. Once they get low on depth from a bad class, they can put their punter at RB and their kicker at FB and still find success behind that line.
