Until a player signs his commitment it ain't worth the paper it is written on. So, while I am optimistic that all of our verbal commitments will actually sign, flipping players our way does not preclude the opposite from happening.

Its all about the Benjamins. TV $$$$$ driving college football even more. To me, an 8 team playoff makes some sense. Symmetry. The extra 4 teams will result in a kind of "playin", like in the NCAA basketball tournament. The players on the playin teams will be terribly beat up when all is o...

I have lost track of the rules about declaring for the draft. The rules seem to be changing at a dizzying speed (at least to me, an old timer). Will someone please explain the impediments to Worship returning. Thanks.

For those who want us to lower our academic standard for recruits, the APR rating may indicate that we already have. I did a search for APR ratings. The results are all over the board. For example, Duke is rated 5th in the ACC behind Boston College and (ahem) Louisville. In the Big 12 Texas is rate...

Maybe he is charming in person. However, in the interviews I have seen him give at half-times and after games Kiffin comes across as curt, even rude.

On the other hand, Saban, who many love to hate, usually comes across as thoughtful, even gracious at times, during his interviews, in my view.

Ohio State 45, Michigan 28
Rice (+14) upsets North Texas

From the above video the crowd on the Vandy field was sparse. However, the crowd on the South Carolina field after the SC win was massive. I am surprised that no one was injured on the SC field. It was packed tight. In my view SC deserves a huge fine. Vandy's fine should be more like $25,000, althou...

What would have happened? Sadly, we would have to cry in our beer and go home.

The officials would not have ruled that Vandy won, but for for their dumb mistake. The SEC might have said bad call, but they would not overturn the game results.

I am so happy for Mike Wright. He is a class representative of Vandy. He can have dinner at my house any time he is in my neighborhood. As an example of his class, he had a stellar interview after the game. He is intelligent, articulate and will be a success in whatever he does after graduation. Wri...

Oh good grief. You idiots can't take a joke to save your lives. I truly believe some of you, if your spouse was depressed and said "I just don't fee like the sun will come up tomorrow" would give them a 30 minutes lecture on how it would be physically impossible for the sun not to come up...

Glad to see how this is being handled. Based on Coach Lea’s comments in the post game presser I suspect a variety of legal/procedural steps were on-going and they take time. School gets the seriousness of this and is acting in a measured manner. I agree. I am a transactional lawyer, not a litigator...

5. Penn State over Ohio State (how's that for a gutsy call?)

Weber State lost its undefeated season in large part by giving up four safeties in one game. Ouch. The safeties were all the fault of the long snapper. The replays showed the snaps were so far over the punter's head that even someone as tall as Wilt Chamberlain could not have caught the ball. One af...

I say good for Stack; good for Vandy; and good for recruiting. I think the length of the contract will soon be known. I believe he is the real deal coach who will lead us into the future. The recruits want to know who they will be playing for, even as college sports has been disrupted by the portal ...

We just don't have the horses to compete in the KY (SEC) derby against the thoroughbreds. Without trying to diminish the efforts of the fine young men who play for Vandy, someone once said, "The best jockey in the world does not win the Kentucky Derby riding a mule." We just do not have en...
