Vandy has bigger problems than the grade requirements. They are the only school in the SEC without an indoor practice facility, their weight room sucks, the stadium is tiny and sucks. Heck Stanford does just fine with the same grade requirements.

This. Vandy has done nothing other than burn through coaches to show any desire to compete in football whatsoever...which is fine by me.

Good grief, I just saw the Vandy score and they got throttled by Wake Forest. Wake is terrible, goodness Vandy you are beyond awful.

Lulz. Vandy in a transition year for their offense? 1-11 could be possible.

I haven't heard that name in almost 20 years. He was one of the two quarterbacks on the Hawaii team that successfully ran the spread option in the early 1990s, long before Urban Meyer "invented" the offense and became a genius. Paul Johnson and the current Navy coach were part of the UH staff then.

I can't understand why he would want to coach Vandy. He can't be more than about 40, he's got time to become a head coach without taking one of the worst jobs in college football. Has anyone ever gotten a chance at coaching a real program after losing with the CommodeOdors?

Well, true there. He got out of Nashville before all the losing tainted him.

Of course, Vanderbilt did have an athletic department back then.

I seriously doubt Phil Fulmer would even entertain an offer from Vandy. He'd have been better off pursuing Minnesota, which he pulled out of.

I agree.
Obviously a good number of Stanford's (check-writing) alumni care about fielding a competitive football program. I don't think the same can be said for Vandy. That's part of the problem at Vandy. The whole mindset there is one of apathy and indifference. Simply put...they just don't give a d**n. The alumni and administration are quite comfortable wallowing in the mire of inferiority when it comes to the brutish sport of football. After all it is a sport for the bourgeois.

This. Stanford actually built a new stadium and hired a good coach. They are actually trying. Vandy obviously isn't.

Does anyone have any insight as to what Vandy is looking for in a coach? I think it's obvious that their standards are much different than UT or Alabama. What criteria is the Vandy president looking for?
