Which is, a victory at Stanford. Possible? Certainly. Over the years we've won a lot of games against Pac 12 teams, including a split of the last four games versus Stanford. Here's hoping it happens again.
But if there's one school that might be looking for a new coach at the end of the year, it is Stanford. Jerod Haase heads into his fourth year with a 48-49 record. And while he lost his best player to the pros, still, a .500 record does not cut it at the major college level these days. And since four years is generally thought to be enough time to prove your bona fides as a coach, Haase might be on the hot seat at the end of this year.
Of course, Stanford began probably it's best stretch in the modern era once they picked Mike Montgomery off our staff. A stellar performance tomorrow night, and Stanford might be reminded of that move. Of course, Stanford is one job Travis could not turn down for many reasons, not the least of which would be his chance to get even with Cal for not hiring him when Montgomery retired.
