Re: Unofficial, but it appears Nick Howell will be the new DC

Thanks for the link. Curious how our current roster fits this scheme. My reaction is this is probably a good thing as our LB talent and depth is greater than our DL. It does seem to be a very active DL in terms of stunts (slants, twists, etc.). I am worried that our ability to stop the run will regr...

Re: Unofficial, but it appears Nick Howell will be the new DC

Based solely on 2021 statistics UVA’s defense wasn’t much better than Vandy last year. They were moderately better against the pass (mid 80s ranking) and worst against the run (120ish). Overall about the same as Vandy’s ranking and they did not get as many TOs as Vandy. I didn’t see UVA play so no i...

Re: Anyone with a comment on new OC?

My two cents: This may be the best decision for the short term (2022 season). It allows consistency in the offense terminology. This will be the first time Wright and Seals will not be learning a new scheme and the first time since Ludwig that the OC will have film of VU players running his system. ...

Re: Swann in UA Game

He looked ok. Not great, but they talked about his commit to Vandy which is always good PR. From what I saw he had a big arm and can sling it. Needs some fundamental work (footing). He should push the 2 jrs and be a viable option for a passing attack. Seeing him got me excited about the future and t...

Re: Watching the Music City Bowl?

Curious if the VFL crowd will blame Hueppel for the loss. With 26 seconds left and three TO, it seemed 10-15 yards was all They needed to kick a game winning FG.

7-6 seems more fitting for them they 8-5 would have been.

Re: What a great game!

Agreed! First game in several years I enjoyed watching even as it went back and forth or VU was down 5-3 pts. I still find the one man drive to the basket offense of Pippen and Wright gets boring. Was it me or was the best run of the game with both Pippen and Wright on the bench? (2nd half 10-7min m...

Re: Historic Class?

Not all 3 stars are the same. There is a range of scores that correlate to a 3 Star overall ranking. The raw score for these recruits is much higher than recruits Vandy has traditionally gotten. So if a score of 70-80 qualifies as a 3 star this class has more 77-79 than than 71-74 type players. This...

Some high praise for the RB. We can use all the depth we can get and seems we will have at least 1 more for spring ball

Re: Game thread

Is there hope or should I refrain from watching and save my night? I can’t drink (dr.’s orders). Not sure I want to subject my family to me being grouchy following or watching the second half.

I really thought he got better over the course of the season and made some big plays late in the year. This is good news for sure!

Re: Report: Brian Kelly to LSU

Kelly made $7.75M at ND. Rumor is he is getting $12m at LSU. It all came down to facilities. Kelly wanted an upgrade at ND’s student center for the players and ND has slow played it.

Re: Realistic Expectations

For the 2022 season here are my realistic expectations: The offense to average more than 18ppg for the entire season. We better run the score up against Elon and Hawaii as I don’t expect us to score much on Georgia or Alabama. Defense: I expect similar number of TO as this year (avg 1* / game). A de...

Re: New facility plans and renderings released

Good timing on the release of the renderings. The season has not gone as good as possible on the field but these renderings can keep the recruiting momentum going. This is something that can be sold to 17-20year olds. I really like what they are proposing. The next logical question is the time line ...
