Stanford, more than most schools, represents a place where the highest acheivers come to see how they can better themselves. I need to avoid the tendency to care too much about what Shaw says in public. I'd like him to say things that please me but in the end the only thing that matters is what his players understand.
I realize that QB is different from other positions, although when you don't have an Andrew Luck, I still think you should treat it like other players.
I'm willing to accept that in practice and meetings, Nunes makes his case for being the best quarterback. I think we are going to have to see a much more epic meltdown, a virtual panic attack, for Shaw to make a game day switch, and that is unlikely given Nunes personality and his ability.Â
If Hogan were a transfer from Oklahoma who led them to a Sun Bowl victory last year, or Lloyd just got back from being on the US 4 x 4 sprint relay team, we fans might have an argument.Â
But as it is, the proof is just not out there.Â
I do like the idea of running some of the other quarterbacks out there at least 5-10 times a game to mix things up.
