The Walt Era Begins

Well, Walt Harris was so far off my radar originally that I never even considered him to be a potential candidate for Stanford football coach. I must admit that I'm still slightly miffed that my number one choice, Norm Chow, was available but rejected (what exactly does Chow have to do to get a head coaching job? Since when is grooming three Heisman winners not enough??). However, I can't say that I'm unhappy with Harris. He knows how to build an offense and he turned a mediocre Pitt program into a BCS school. When you think about it, how many schools get the chance to steal the coach of a conference titleist? So for the first time in ages, there's a sense of hope and optimism hanging over the Stanford program- not a bad early Christmas present.
