The locker room does not lack for motivational quotes.
Gaff!
Stanford NFL players each get a locker.
Skov!
Lots and lots of uniforms.
Finals week.
Clean as a whistle!
Coach David Shaw. Have I mentioned he was my year?
The briefing room has a special section for the offensive lineman (bigger seats).
It was interesting to learn from Coach Shaw and the rest of his coaching staff about the Stanford football culture. I can only imagine how the content might have been different at another school.
They have more than 300 plays in a season. No wonder it helps to be smart.
After the coaches, we had a Q&A with a player panel. Here's one of my favorites, Tyler Gaffney (who is graduating next week and then will go on to play with the Carolina Panthers).
David Yankey, one of the team's captains, is also graduating this year and will be playing for the Vikings.
Equipment coach.
HUGE laundry facilities. I'd only have to do one load a week.
Training room.
The new workout space was just completed in May--brand new facility.
Muscle Milk and other nutritional replenishment right in the training room.
On the field.
Up in the press sky box talking with Gaff about his courageous decision to come back to play football at Stanford after a year of playing baseball with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Could he be any cuter?
They did this for everyone at today's clinic, but it was still pretty cool. A very fun day--and a fine, fine football program.
