Vandy fan support is a joke-period. I think someone in the media needs to absolutely challenge Clark Lea on his statements at SEC media days. He said, “But it’s because of their support that we’re aiming to build the best football program in the country at Vanderbilt University, where we have the best school in the best city in the best conference with the best facilities on the horizon.”
What?!?! Best program and best facilities?!?!?! The only thing true in that statement is “best conference” someone should seriously ask questions like, what does having the best facilities look like? Best facilities compared to what? What do you specifically mean by best football program in the country? They’ve never even won 1 SEC title!!! Is this a 30 year rebuild? Are they going to invest like a billion dollars in facilities-seriously! This guy has spoken way over his head and will have to answer for this at some point. But it is vandy so no one really notices.

Agree... but what's he supposed to say?

I'm honestly not sure how they manage to hire a HC... ever. Maybe it is seen as a stepping stone to be a coordinator or position coach at another program? Since 1975, only Franklin and DiNardo have coached at Vandy then become a HC elsewhere.

I hate to defend a Vandy guy but I mean....what do you want him to say? That's basically just coach speak that everyone says. You don't crap on your employer. Did he go overboard? Sure, but again that's better than him saying "We suck, we've always sucked, so what do you want from me?"

But he went so overboard it’s ridiculous and irrational. It’s so irrational that I don’t think anyone will take him serious from here on out. But again, it’s vandy so who cares?

Vandy may be able to do a 50x100 ft checkerboard section if their marching band participates.

You mean the band made of mostly of students from other area colleges that has to use the dance team to even make attempt at spelling Vandy? Which by the way the Vol fans will do the VOLS spell out during their pregame show.

Not even close. They suck but they are still a rival. And just like UK football, after they got a small taste of fortune it quickly went to their heads.

Also if you went to a Vandy home basketball game in the 80s or 90s, especially when they played UT, you'd hate them forever.

Fair enough.

As a Vandy alum, I can say 100% that will not happen.

But maybe if it rains, it stays a 4 possession game?

So far it is a 90 year rebuild.

The Titans fan base would do a better job of checkering Nissan Stadium than Canderbilt would First Bank Stadium.
