Stanford's head football coach David Shaw says he is resigning after the Cardinal finished the 2022 season with a 3-9 record.

Shaw shared the decision following Saturday night's disappointing 35-26 loss to BYU, saying "it's time."

Shaw is a former Stanford football player and the winningest head coach in the Cardinal program's history, with a career mark of 96-54.

He was honored with the 2017 Bobby Dodd National Coach of the Year award and led Stanford to three Pac-12 titles and two Rose Bowl victories in 12 seasons.

He was scheduled to hold a news conference Monday to talk about his decision to step down.

Stanford said the search for his successor will begin immediately.
