Re: I wish I could be as optimistic as the fans predicting 9 or 10 Ws this season

I also boldly predicted 7 wins. I really wanted to say 6 but I was trying to be adventurous and optimistic. What can I say? It was the first game of the season, with delays and an expectation to dominate we definitely did not show out like I had hoped. Looking forward to another game next week were ...

Optimistic about the schedule?

After looking at the schedule in more depth, I am more optimistic about this season when it come to the schedule and the chances of this team making it to post-season play. Clark Lea said the margin is razor thin and I would not disagree with him. The SEC East does not look as intimidating as it has...

Re: Next Season

My biggest fear is we start off slow once again as we learn to gel with all the new faces and experience. A slow start could once again prevent us from going to the dance. We will have to wait and see. I really like Stack and I am pulling for him, but this is year 5. He needs to find a way to start ...

Does anyone know what is going on?

Can someone explain to me how we finished the way we did, very positive and optimistic about the future of Vandy basketball, to what looks like a program in complete rebuild mode? I am dumbfounded at the departure of some of these guys. None of this makes sense unless CJS is leaving, and if he is le...

Re: Dangerous midweek matchup tonight

That loss may have been a blessing in disguise. I will take the mid-week thumping if it fires up Corbs the Vandy Boys heading to Knoxville this week. Let's not just go to Knoxville and win. Let's go to Knoxville and dominate...bring out the bats, the brooms, and the whistler. Time to take back the s...

Re: Legitimate concerns

I just find it odd that QMB leaves right after saying he was coming back, J Wright leaving still does not make sense to me. I could be wrong, but I think Stack is probably leaving. I am not really upset by that. I think he is a good coach, but we still have not been to the tourney under his leadersh...

Re: Here is what’s going on…

If by some chance you are right that the players know something, and if in fact Stack is leaving, should they not announce that sooner than later. We would need to strike while the iron is hot for a new coach. I know the NBA season is not over, however we cannot wait around for that season to finish...

Re: How Much Longer

I am rooting for Stack, but I honestly do not think he is the guy based on everything I have seen these last couple of years. I hope and want him to become the guy that we all hoped he would. That said... If something does happen and we are looking for a new coach, who is out there that would come t...

I would love to see Parker Noland have his breakout year this year. He has always had so much potential but hasn't put it all together yet. I hope this is his year to put it all together.

Re: Random ruminations the morning after

I do believe the right guy could come in here and recruit the best "Vandy eligible" talent in the country. I also believe with the right system of x's and o's with these top players we could achieve what I believe most Vandy fans want...relevance. We want to be a team that is tough and can...

Preseason Predictions

Well, my son starts High School baseball practice this week so that means we are getting close to college baseball, and I could not be more excited. I believe it starts in 18 days down in Texas and I have a good feeling about this Vandy team. Call it a gut feeling or a hunch, but I think we will be ...

Re: How old are the people on this board?

46...and I didn't go to Vandy. That said, my dad grew up in Nashville and was a blue-collar guy that never went to college. He turned me into a Vandy fan. He always had season tickets to football and basketball. He loved cheering for "the smart kids." That's how he put it anyway. I may not...

Re: Honest question

It's like I have always asked, what is the expectation for Vanderbilt Basketball? Do we think Vandy should be trying to get to a final 4 every year? Or do we want Vandy to just get into the Tourney every year? Or are we satisfied with the Stallings approach and be a competitive team that makes the t...
