Re: 2023 SF Malik Presley to announce decision Friday

If he signs with Vandy, he would be the third player in this class in the swingman size range (6-6/6-7). (Not saying their games are all alike, however.) To save others time, his offer list includes: Arizona State TCU Texas Houston LSU Okie St. Ole Miss Texas A&M SMU Thanks for this. I really p...

Good grief, kid.

At one point does everyone just intentionally walk the guy?
Or talk him into transferring ?

C'mon, just a thought.

Re: Tyrin Lawrence reportedly entering the transfer portal

This is most likely about the money and ,yes, I would bet inappropriate contact as well. Whatever , I am sick of the whole mess and don't completely absolve the players. I cheer for the VU athletes because I believe, apparently somewhat incorrectly, that they are young people with their heads screwe...

Re: Deion Sanders is the antithesis of Clark Lea

"It makes a mockery of what the sport is"

I liked the article, but have to say that college sports long ago descended past "mockery" status.

Re: Tyrin Lawrence reportedly entering the transfer portal

Maybe it’s just me, but all these academic juniors leaving one year shy of a VU degree just seems shortsighted. I know that to some extent the quality of a degree is limited by your career goals. If you don’t plan to continue in academia in pursuit of an advanced degree, then a degree from another ...

Re: Game announcers Saturday said ...

FayetteDore wrote: Fri Apr 28, 2023 1:21 pm I heard the TV announcers say that too (4 games) but all the news coverage I saw afterward indicated one game.

Anybody know what the rule is?
Yes. Do anything you want, behave like an a$$hat and the SEC will show a total lack of character and give you a slap on the wrist. Very simple rule.

Re: QMB to The Citadel

I am speechless. Why would he do this????? It baffles me as well. According to Citadel website, MBA courses are offered "in the evenings on campus or online". This seems to mean almost totally online for him due to scheduling conflicts. Citadel's E school sounds a little less than great g...

Re: Tyrin Lawrence

i cannot speak for every dismissal but I do know that Stack suggested to at least one if not several of our guys that it might be a good idea to transfer. And also that $$ was the main reason for our highest profile departures. Yes it is a lot of turnover that goes against what we all love about co...

Re: Tyrin Lawrence

Well, for the good of the team I hope he does come back, but even if he averages 50 a game, he will never be my favorite player because of this crap he has pulled. Having said that, I'm sure he will loose sleep over it. If he comes back and only averages 30 per game, all is forgiven. I would love t...

Re: Tyrin Lawrence

They could make 20% on that endowment and not a penny would or could go into the NIL. That money has to come from outsiders who want name, image, likeness from the players. [/quote] Think you are right about the school directly funding NIL (though I think personally that is idiotic given the mere e...

Re: Some Tyrin news

Look I want Tyrin back - absolutely no reservations about that. Even beyond that though, this NIL crap is the crap future we face and VU has to find a way to deal with that. It is hard for me to fathom that Vandy , even fully accepting the academic priority of most wealthy supporters, cannot find a ...

Re: Vandy-Xavier Thread

I'm likely crazy, but, looking at the big picture and a real shortage of offensive talent, maybe we were lucky to have as good a season as we did. We are in the bottom tier of the SEC in most offensive statistics and our LOB numbers seemed bad to me. Who is our hitting coach and should we be shoppin...

Re: UT

I had seen this from SDS previously, but didn’t bother posting here. It sheds a little more light on why the AG believes there is legal merit to threaten suit. Of course, I agree with the sentiment that he should have more important things to tend to. https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/tennessee-foo...
