Wed May 10, 2023 11:04 am Re: Hunter Dickinson and NIL Wed May 10, 2023 11:04 am Re: Hunter Dickinson and NIL
Eh. I guess. I earned both my bachelor’s and master’s degrees at VU. Did pretty well re: accrued debt, relatively speaking. I’ve been a public school teacher my entire career (midpoint right now). I could make more money doing many other things, even within the education sector. I’m where I am becau... - 10 Been thanked

Fri Jun 02, 2023 2:59 pm Re: Stackhouse Fri Jun 02, 2023 2:59 pm Re: Stackhouse
Our problem, generally, is that we're a-holes. We want to win right the heck now. Turns out, it's really hard. Our coach didn't have the luxury of learning college coaching as an assistant. He jumped in the deep end. It's a hell of a learning curve for a new head coach. It's even crazier if you thro... - 8 Been thanked

Tue Apr 25, 2023 5:09 pm Re: I Absolutely Hate the Transfer Portal and the NIL Tue Apr 25, 2023 5:09 pm Re: I Absolutely Hate the Transfer Portal and the NIL
I'm with you. I hate it. During the Stallings years, there were a lot of fine young men who played for Vanderbilt for 4 years (or at least 3) who my son and I got to know at the games and basketball camps and such. I've got photos of my son with Jeff Taylor, Lance Goulborne, Festus Ezeli and John Je... - 8 Been thanked

How 'bout an 'adda-boy' to Coach Stackhouse. We were all considering hara-kiri after the portal opened, and now we're clearly in better shape. I'm absolutely grateful and honored to have Mr. Stackhouse as our coach. The guy gives everything he has. - 8 Been thanked

First I would like to say, the Vanderbilt marketing team nailed this event. Kevin Ingram was the event MC. There is no podcast or recording of this stop. Carter Hawkins, the Cubs GM, is a former Vandyboy ('07) and that was the connection for the event being held at 1914 Club inside Wrigley. Carter s... - 7 Been thanked

Pretty sure you’re the only one who feels this way on both counts. Certainly the latter point, anyway. Ty is an all-SEC caliber player. - 7 Been thanked

I don't know how you can sugar coat the fact that we are arguably going into next year with less talent, experience, and hope than at any time as a VU fan sans 1 or 2 years. You're welcome to take this position, but I just don't buy it. I see a badass coach learning to adjust to the conditions in f... - 7 Been thanked

Wed Apr 26, 2023 6:31 pm Re: Tyrin Lawrence reportedly entering the transfer portal Wed Apr 26, 2023 6:31 pm Re: Tyrin Lawrence reportedly entering the transfer portal
Honestly, there is no difference in these athletes and everyone else in there generation. They want a job where they can work from home, start at $75 an hour, play with the cat and watch some tv during work hours. If someone pushes back, they quit and sit at home collecting their unemployment until... - 6 Been thanked

Mon Aug 21, 2023 1:42 pm Some thoughts, predictions about the season ahead Mon Aug 21, 2023 1:42 pm Some thoughts, predictions about the season ahead
Founder's Walk was last weekend. Classes start tomorrow. The heat is still here; it should be close to 90 when Vandy kicks off on Saturday night. Time for some wild predictions about the season... 1. I am unusually bullish on this year's Commodores and think folks are underestimating them; I 'm bold... - 6 Been thanked

Mon Apr 17, 2023 10:56 am Forum change: from "likes" to "thanks" Mon Apr 17, 2023 10:56 am Forum change: from "likes" to "thanks"
It appears the old "like" function has been replaced with a "thanks" function. And unlike before (I think), it shows the names of the posters doing the thanking. And the number of thanks shows up as a star-rating. - 6 Been thanked

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 col... - 6 Been thanked

Honestly, this is hard to take. This school and staff has put a lot into Tyrin, and he treats us this way? Free education at a top 20 university for one. Lots of hours working with him to develop his skills. Got him a lot of air time and plenty of promotional work by the Vandy marketing department. ... - 6 Been thanked

Greetings fellow VandyFans (and Mrs. Drew), I've been checking regularly on this board for positive "news" for our next-year's team. I would have to describe many posts as quite despairing. It is clearly a bummer to see folks leave, but I have observed that "the collective" has h... - 6 Been thanked

This 60 year fan and legacy alumnus is always stunned by the vitriol directed at Franklin. He did exactly what every and any head coach does in the slimy world of college athletics- (ne professional sport minor leagues). He bolted when he got a better offer, as did his recruits. The fact that he was... - 6 Been thanked
