Stanford hired Sacramento State coach Troy Taylor on Saturday to replace David Shaw.
STANFORD -- Stanford has hired Sacramento State's coach Troy Taylor to the same position, the university announced Saturday.
A former Cal player and assistant, Taylor has intimate knowledge of the Cardinal program and has spent practically his entire coaching career on the West Coast. Outside of a 14-year run at Folsom High School in California, Sacramento State marked Taylor's first gig as a head coach. The results were impressive: A 30-8 overall record with three Big Sky championships and playoff appearances.
Taylor has had multiple stints as an assistant for Pac-12 schools throughout his career, most recently serving as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Utah for the 2017 and 2018 seasons. Following a trip with the Utes to the Pac-12 Championship Game in 2018, Taylor was hired by Sacramento State and quickly rose through the ranks as one of the top coaches at the FCS level.
Sacramento State did not have a season in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but the disruption did not alter Taylor's, or the team's, trajectory. The Hornets returned to action in 2021 with another Big Sky title, this time winning the conference outright with an 8-0 league record. Once again, Taylor was named the Big Sky Coach of the Year.
