Re: Ray Davis disses Nashville in KSR interview

I listened to the interview live yesterday on Louisville AM-790. This is just 23 seconds out of 3 or 4 minutes. I wouldn't say that Davis "dished on" (as was printed in the article) Nashville so much as he mentioned a positive about Lexington. And he is not wrong. UK football is the only g...

After George chose Asheville, North Carolina, the town went with Erwin.
So, did Erwin build a big house there?

Carter Holton Team USA

Had to do some digging online to find results from the games against Taipei and Japan. Apparently, Team USA swept five games from Taipei and lost 3 of 5 to Japan. The roster had 32 players, including Holton and 18 other pitchers (not including Jac Caglione who batted but did not pitch. Carter only p...

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

I admit that I thought McClelland was hired as a potential replacement for Lee as though the administration thought she would fail. That may have been the case, but she did not fail. Lee has done a fine job and there is no reason to speculate whether another university would hire her because VU is h...

Re: The battle for starting placekicker could get interesting

The title and this post reflects the true spirit of vanderbilt football. It should be pinned and locked. :?: Don’t understand. Is it because we usually don’t have all-conference offensive and defensive players that Vanderbilt fans are excited by Special Teamers? Sounds like this story from days gon...

Re: Video: Comedian Bargatze shares experience as Vanderbilt fan

Coach Lea and Nate B say they plan a show for the team sometime.

Now that Bargatze is famous, a private performance probably costs minimum $50k. But … we’re hoping for a big discount since it will help end his long fandom struggle.

Re: Per the Draft Tracker

FWIW Aria Gerson is reporting that all current Vandy player draftees have signed except Grayson Moore. Ask her about recruits Alex Clemmey ($1.40 million slot value) and Thomas White ($2.42 million). Perhaps they want to play two or three years for the 'Dores and move up to the big money in the fir...

Aria noted "control problems"

There must be a stronger word she could use than "problems."

33.2 IP / 28 BB / 13 HBP / 7 WP

Add 51 hits (inc. 5 HR) and he was fortunate to have ONLY a 9.36 ERA.

But Corbs and all the recruiting analysts who saw Levi in high school see something there. Could be an excellent pickup!

Re: Clark Lea confirms signee WR Duran Parish no longer with the team

I don't see him on any basketball recruiting radar. However, I watched a film clip on HUDL and he was perfect on 5 or 6 3-point shots.

Found a new home at Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College.

Re: Too soon for locker room material???

The conference is better all-around. I don’t expect Vanderbilt to finish 4th again, but 8/9/10 is a reasonable prognostication. BTW: The reviewer left out a key (Lee) player in Dort. He didn’t stay at Vanderbilt to ride the pines. I believe Lee Dort will be an impact player. Now get me outta here, P...

I love Nate Bargatze!

His comedy is clean, wholesome. He is a Vanderbilt fan from Nashville (uncle Ron was an assistant basketball coach in the 70’s). But he did not attend Vanderbilt. “I’m from Tennessee and I went to college in Tennessee. I went to community college for one year and I do not have one credit to show for...
