Not only that, but Shaw is the second African American coach we have hired. Moreover, Stanford has Black football and men's basketball coaches and, perhaps even rarer, a Black athletic director (only 7% of AD's are).

Third, actually. Denny Green came first and then Tyrone Willingham

And in a game that used to define a successful season for Stanford.
Denny was 3-0 vs that school across the bay.
Tyrone was 7-0
And Coach Shaw is 5-0.
A lovely trend.

Stanford also has never fired an African American head coach in basketball or football.  Though I wish THAT trend would end ASAP.
