Re: Vandy-UT thread

Not surprising given all the circumstances, but it still is a bit weird to see such relative sparse attendance at a VU-UT game.

Re: Vandy-UT thread

Shooting 28% from our home floor. Not gonna win too many games like that. Let’s hope the second half is better offensively. Yes, it'd be good to see some bright spots. Apparently we've shot a few air balls; I wonder how much of that is nerves and how much of it is being intimidated by UT's height.

Hopefully an opponent on the court will make a difference?

Tough game, good test for us. Come to think of it, every SEC game is a test for us. Onward, and anchor down!

Re: Vandy Student Tickets and Covid

I have no knowledge of who or why this policy was developed but I bet there is some group at Vanderbilt charged with developing public health rules for students. I further posit that nobody from the athletic department had any input since they are not medical or public health experts. It is most li...

Re: I believe we have found us a Coach

I hope your enthusiasm is contagious and folks will start coming back to the games. Attendance is HORRIBLE (I hope it's mainly COVID keeping it down).

Re: I believe we have found us a Coach

Just given reality, I feel pretty confident we'll face some disappointments over the next few months, but I agree with the positive comments here -- and I have to say that it's really nice to have a message board where fans who often disagree are all agreeing that things are looking pretty hopeful. ...

What's the difference between plain old "field goal percentage" and "effective field goal percentage"?

Re: Arkansas at Vandy, 1-6-22, 7:30 p.m.

On the plus side (in addition to the final score), we had only 13 TOs, which is good for us. Not so good - 38.5% shooting from the field, 22.2% from 3-pt range.

Re: Arkansas at Vandy, 1-6-22, 7:30 p.m.

WOO HOO! We win our 1st SEC game under Coach Ralph 54-51. Scary at the end, but we hold on for the win. I hope that Jordyn Cambridge's injury isn't serious - she was on the court at the end (I think), so I'm cautiously optimistic about that.

Re: Arkansas at Vandy, 1-6-22, 7:30 p.m.

I think we've led the entire game, sometimes with leads as big as 10 or 11, but with 30 seconds to go, it's a nailbiter at 51-47 VU.

Re: Arkansas at Vandy, 1-6-22, 7:30 p.m.

Since we led by as much as 10 in 2Q, leading by 4 at the half feels like a bit of a letdown, but still, it's good to be in the lead. Low scoring game, 29-25 halftime.

Re: Arkansas at Vandy, 1-6-22, 7:30 p.m.

Watching Georgia @UK Women on SEC Network (hope it's about to switch to VU). Memorial Coliseum in Lexington is nearly empty. Perhaps UK has a no-students-at-Women's-games Covid rule that doesn't apply to the Men's games. On TV is appears that the VU game is nearly empty, too. Besides the usual reas...

But no Vanderbilt undergraduate students will allowed to attend, according to university policy. See this thread from the MBB forum: https://14powers.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=20308 Unless things have changed, I don't think that'll make that much difference for the women's games. Other tha...

it's good that they've re-scheduled the game. Now we have to hope that there aren't more postponements - sooner or later we'll run out of open dates for re-scheduling.
