Stanford Coach David Shaw addresses the hit on Francis Owusu

Stanford football coach David Shaw addressed the media in a press conference on Monday. After a question about the LSU vacancy that Shaw thoroughly dismissed the press immediately asked about Tahaan Goodman’s hit on Francis Owusu during Saturday night’s game against UCLA. Despite the hit being a textbook example of targeting both the officials on the field, and the replay officials in the booth did not call the penalty. Owusu suffered a concussion and will not play Friday night against Washington. Here are Shaw’s statements on the matter:

“I gotta start by saying first of all, No offense toward UCLA, their coaches, the player involved in the hit, if anything I sympathize and empathize with them.
