This has probably been discussed elsewhere, but I wonder if now is the time that Stanford should seek to go independent, like Notre Dame. Schedule the games we want to play, which would likely include many that we currently play.
Of course, as soon as I say that, I remember that the only way that Notre Dame can afford to do that is because of their massive deal with NBC. Stanford is on TV only because of the Pac-12 network and the odd network/ESPN game that we play against someone noteworthy. We need the Pac 8/9/10/12, or some other conference, because of the TV revenue.
