Toughest Pac 12 coach? Ex-Ducks coordinator Nick Aliotti says it's Stanford's David Shaw

Former Oregon Ducks defensive coordinator Nick Aliotti joined me on the Bald Faced Truth radio show (12-3p weekdays on Portland's 102.9-FM and Eugene's 95.7-FM), where I asked him who is the toughest out as an opposing head coach.

Listen to the full interview here.

"I always thought Mike Riley did a good job (when I was coaching), but the answer now would be David Shaw," Aliotti said. "Everybody runs the spread now, but Shaw... is more of a pro-style guy, a lot of lineman, two backs... it's like what it used to be like playing against the option.
