Boy, I’m Glad We’re Not Playing Vandy This Year

A win over UF wouldn’t be an upset at this point. Vandy would be favored. What has this world come to?

 

Make no mistake, Vandy is very good this year. They should have beaten Missouri also.

 

Good coaching and players that have bought in. 51 players from the portal really can change a team in a blink of an eye. It doesn't always work, like FSU, but when it does you can have an instant CFP contender, like Miami.

 

Really Really like their coach. Tough Defense and he's really gotten creative with his qb/offense.

 

Didn’t their coach recently revamp his staff after a couple rough seasons?

 

You can’t get the officiating assistance Miami has received this season from the Portal.

 

Happy for Vandy!

 

How do you distinguish a couple of rough seasons from a history of rough seasons?

 

Their QB is so feisty and scrappy, it's like watching Johnny football at TA&M

 

Coach Lea

Year 1: 2-10
Year 2: 5-7
Year 3: 2-10

Staff changes. New SC coach, New Scheme (Tim Beck), Jerry Kill as a consultant,
Year 4: 4-1

Season isn’t over but I’d consider those first few years for Lea as rough.

 

Absolutely, but that's Vandy's football program historically. Rough season after rough season.

 

I know.

 

Yes, dude missed a chip shot FG…but they did lose to a crappy Georgia State team.

 

Not under James Franklin.

 

True, but historically speaking, this is Vandy's MO.

 

Don't forget South Carolina too.
Very likely loss under this coach.

 

Clark Lea was a very good DC at ND. One of the biggest changes he made this season is he took back over calling the defense during the games. Coaching, quality coaching, especially on Saturdays, makes a big difference.

I hope Vanderbilt will take care of him and he can stay there.

 

My ex-girlfriend (still one of my best friends) is a Vandy graduate, and she's very happy about their football team this season.
