Stanford head coach David Shaw has resigned after 12 seasons at his alma mater.
Shaw announced his decision to step down, effective immediately, after Saturday night's 36-25 loss to BYU in Stanford's season finale.
"I prayed about it, I thought about it," Shaw said. "With every hour it seemed, it was more cemented in my head. The phrase that kept coming to me is: 'It's time.'"
Shaw, 50, said he had not considering resigning until earlier this past week, and said he has no desire to coach another team at this point.
