There, I’ve just given you the most meaningless fact you will learn all day today.

FayetteDore wrote: Mon Jul 10, 2023 1:02 pm So only 5 of the 14 are sending QBs. Is that about the average? Seems like there are usually more QBs.
I think it's probably just because there are relatively few returning QBs this year who saw significant playing time last season.

The draft is over...

And no Vandy commits were selected after round 2. Great news that the bulk of the class, including Braden Holcomb and Ethan McElvain, are headed to school.

Also notable that neither Alan Espinal nor Jack Bulger (both draft-eligible) were selected.

Re: The Athletic (premium): VU Chancellor Harvie Branscomb proposed a "Magnolia League" in 1962; it went nowhere

Seeing Georgia in that list is jarring.

It's a very good school, but would have never figured it would have been part of a mythical Magnolia League.

UT infractions case gets more bonkers

Pruitt said he thought about racial inequity and the high-profile killings of Black people when he gave a player’s mother $300 in a Chick-fil-A bag. Pruitt said a player’s mother showed up in the parking lot outside the UT football complex in tears because of financial hardship. She told him she ha...

Sam Hliboki and Troy LaNeve both reportedly returning for a 5th year

According to their Instagram accounts.

Both have been hobbled by injury in their careers at VU, so this is not terribly surprising.

Re: Officiating at last year's Vandy-UT game

Maybe he'd like to talk about the atrocity at the end of the Florida game, too.

Re: A couple of thoughts after a day lurking at SEC Media Days

Good question Go, but it varies with the movie. For example, I liked Coppola's secret, never-released version that had Duvall playing Sweet Caroline while approaching the village instead of Ride of the Valkyries , and rather than napalming it, winning the hearts and minds of the villagers by teachi...

Petrino is now Jimbo's OC at aTm.

If you had said Freeze, at Auburn, you would have been right.
Freeze and Petrino are the same people, aren't they?

Re: Pete Thamel: Sources: Rice targeting VU Asst. AD Tommy McClelland for AD; deal appears close to done

Big loss IMHO. It's helped immeasurably to have someone with AD experience alongside Candice Lee during her tenure and during the Vandy United campaign. I hope they fill the position with someone who will contribute just as much to fundraising and revenue generation.

Another portal pickup: Jacob Humphrey, UMass-Lowell

The rising junior hit .337 in his freshman season and .317 in his sophomore season while stealing 79 bases over two seasons. Not a lot of power, though--just 11 HRs and 14 doubles. He has mostly played RF.
