Ivan Maisel got hold of a letter Stanford sent to recruits, telling them how much the average Stanford alumni make compared to their counterparts at other top 25 schools.

Here\'s a link to the actual letter:

On a related note, I listened to a David Shaw interview, and the coach did not seem daunted by the notion of recruiting to Stanford. "All we have to do is find 20 guys a year."

<<sigh>>
It would have been nice if the letter writer had run Spell Check before sending it out. No triple "s" in Missouri. :-[

Hey, that\'s recruiting these days -

Noor Davis said he would be continuing to look around, too.
Getting a verbal from a high profile kid these days only means you have won the first battle in what will be a long war.
Did we give up on Blake Leuders after he gave a verbal to ND?

If he means what he [Aziz] says:
Quote:Everything doesnt have to be right, but it has to be better than Stanford, basically. Thats the number one team, thats the leader. Matching it up, football-wise, it has to be better than that. Academic-wise, it has to be better than that. All of the stuff will be weighed in.
we\'re a lock. :)

IMO one can never consider anything a "lock" especially once ND and USC begin pulling out their football traditions. Â But, I think the real danger would be if, for some reason, we came out and flopped during the football season in the Fall (which I do not see happening at all with Andrew and the other returning players on both sides of he ball). Â As long as the newly structured coaching staff gets everyone to play hard and smart and we end up in a good bowl game, I think we\'ll be ok. Â Lay an egg and I think top recruits begin questioning the Post-Harbaugh era. Â
Regarding last year\'s recruits that got away: both Sarao and Carlisle were heavily influenced by Harbaugh\'s move to the Niners, if I recall correctly. Â The long-term stability of Shaw (provided he has on-field success) should be great for the recruiting of Stanford.
