stay the present course! Sad when Belmont has consistently had a better program.

If you like mediocre academics then...

And if you like mediocre (spelled correctly) academics, then you will love Belmont.

Ranked #162 in the nation which is 107 spots lower than "FSU" or "free shoes university" which is often insulted on this forum. But Belmont is head and shoulders higher in the rankings than Grand Canyon, so there is that.

Duke, Gonzaga and UCLA play better than mediocre basketball - take your pick of who you want to root for. Vandy obviously isn't as good as you hoped. You have an interesting way of stating your displeasure of the program.

The original poster seems to have a negative outlook on Vandy, as several other posters have commented on. I think we are making progress in improving our players and in recruiting. Are we Duke? No, of course not. But, I do see progress. I am satisfied we have the right coach, absent hiring K away from Duke (HA). :D

If one is so miserable following Vandy basketball, then the best solution is to find a bandwagon to jump on somewhere. Life is too short, right?

Some of us don't have that as a realistic option--in football some call it "The Curse".

An old friend, who played DB at Kentucky in the 70's once said he had enough frustration and losing years ago -- and was going to become a UT fan.

Yes I called BS on that. That will never happen. Nope never did.
