About Stanford Cardinal
Stanford Cardinal 2021: News, Schedule, Roster, Scores, Injury Report
The Stanford Cardinal compete in NCAA Men's Basketball as a part of the Pac-12 Conference. Some notable opponent teams from the conference are Arizona, Oregon, UCLA, and USC. They were founded in 1913.
Their original nickname was the Indians, which lasted from 1930 to 1972, when it was changed to Cardinal. The origin of Cardinal is a reference to their university color, and not the bird.
The current logo of the Cardinal is a block letter 'S' with a tree in the center. The Redwood tree wasn't part of the original logo and was added later in the 1990s.
