Can new coach Troy Taylor turn things around at The Farm?
STANFORD – Stanford coach Troy Taylor won’t have to deal with high expectations in his first season on The Farm.
As a result, Stanford featured a young and inexperienced group learning an entirely new system when fall camp started on Tuesday. Here are the five questions that Stanford must resolve during camp to beat its preseason projections:Stanford is switching from a methodical pro-style offense to a fast-paced, mostly no-huddle offense. How quickly can it make the transition?
This year, Taylor must choose between three unproven signal-callers – junior Ari Patu, sophomore Ashton Daniels and Syracuse transfer Justin Lamson – who combined have thrown 31 collegiate passes. Stanford quarterback Ashton Daniels hands the ball off to Stanford’s E.J. Smith during practice on the practice field at Stanford University in Stanford, Calif., on Tuesday, Aug. 1, 2023. Perhaps the most mystifying part of Stanford’s recent slide was its inability to run the football. A team that prided itself on “intellectual brutality” and running through opponents finished 117th in rushing out of 131 teams last year and 125th in 2021.
