Re: Vanderbilt-Mizzou thread

Who was it said that CCL learns ? Was Lea even watching the SC game let alone coaching in it ? A 3 man rush AGAIN !??!!! Total ignorance ! It was actually a 2 man rush and a third defender "shadowing" the QB, like you are worried about him running with the ball? At least have 3 try to dis...

Re: Jeremy Moussa part of the gameplan this week?

I just don't get how folks are still enamored with Wright as a "mobile" QB that can make plays with his legs. Have we seen any of that? I only get that if you mean he can run out of bounds quicker. Laterally. I hope Moussa starts if Seals is out. But my guess is we will give most of the f...

Re: Watching the Alabama/Tennessee game

The funniest misstatement by the announcers last night was when UT went for it on 4th and 6 on their own 29 midway through the 4th. The announcer said something to the effect of :"What difference does it make if you lose by 21 or 28". Well, when the line is -24.5, it makes a big difference...

Re: OT: Jeremy Pruitt vs. UT could get... very interesting!

It sounds to me like plain old extortion. He isn't arguing that he is innocent of the charges, or that UT didn't have cause to fire him, but that if he isn't paid off, he will expose UT to a lot of bad publicity involving more violations involving other programs besides football than has been made p...

I am not sure anything about Watson Brown's tenure could be called a success. I hope Vanderbilt has better results this time with an alum as head coach.

Re: Classless UT fans throwing things on the field

That was a complete embarrassment for the SEC. The SEC should fine UT at least $1 Million for lack of crowd control. If I was Ole Miss, I would have refused to take another snap until the stands were cleared of fans. If the fans couldn't self regulate, then none of them deserved to be there.

Re: Seals out with injury?!?!?!

Based upon the cast I saw on his middle finger on Tuesday, I am afraid he might be out for a while. I wanted to say something on here, but didn't want to potentially give any information to South Carolina. Hopefully they have been preparing all week for a stationary pocket passer. It is a shame beca...

Re: I actually think Vandy has a chance vs. SC... a chance

(Please, no Dumb and Dumber references.) What gives me hope is seeing the way Tennessee absolutely torched South Carolina's secondary in the first half a week ago. You had missed assignments, receivers running free... it all looked very familiar. (South Carolina's defensive coordinator under Shane ...

Re: Argument Jared Stillman and Joe Rexrode had about Saban at Vanderbilt

I guess I really don't keep up with Nashville Sports talk, because I don't even know who Jared Stillman is. But his arguments comparing Saban to Franklin demonstrates that he is not a very good critical thinker. There are so many holes in that logic it is hard to take him seriously. I don't know if ...

2021: Nothing to speak of other than maybe Will Sheppard and Chris Pierce, who else would start for another Power 5, let alone an SEC team? I also don't remember Mason inheriting much at the qb position. QB is the critical position. When you get solid QB play, like Kyle Shurmur provided for 3 1/2 y...

Re: It appears IT has left the program

I have heard that IT is coming back to Vanderbilt in the Spring to finish his degree, and then he will transfer for baseball. I understand the desire to get the Vanderbilt degree, and I wish him the best, but I am not sure that being 5 years out of high school will put him in a good spot for the MLB...

Re: UT getting Nashville area recruiting commits

Don't discount what Vitello is doing over there. Baseball America's recruiting ranks came out last week and UT is #5. VU is #3, so Corbs isn't going away, but you can't deny UT's recruiting is right there with the elites. I think Vitello is doing a good job, and is certainly better than the last co...

OT: Coaching malpractice in Florida State game.

I missed the ending of the Florida State-Jacksonville State game until this morning. That was about the worst defensive scheme I have ever seen for a Hail-Mary scenario. JSU is on their own 41 with 4th and 10 and time for one play, and Florida State has at least 9 men within 10 yards of the line of ...

Re: ROCKY MOUNTAIN HIGH: Observations on Vandy's 24-21 comeback WIN over CSU

Halfway through the second quarter, I thought Lea's tenure was on life support. I think they are building some momentum in recruiting, but you have to have some results on the field to really sell recruits on your vision. They looked about as bad as you could: special teams mistakes, poor defensive ...

Re: It appears IT has left the program

My pure guess is that he asked for confirmation he would start next year so that he wouldn’t have a potentially wasted senior year and Corbs wouldn’t bend on telling him he had to earn it. Kind of what I was wondering, too. The full IG post is quoted on an SDS “article” - I was curious what he impl...
