Not this year, but sometime in the next four years at Vandy. Take that to the bank.

I think she’s that good of a coach. Listening to all of her interviews, I get why players are willing to play for her and accept her instruction. You can also tell she’s a fierce competitor.

Lady Commodores are worth your support.

Mikayla Blakes has received SEC Freshman of the Week.

Blakes recorded 29 points against Butler. The guard is averaging 21 points per game, which is 31st in the nation.

Sooooo any updates on recruits. Board member let us know chandler flipped. Story? Anything on anyone? Who else is teetering? We need some news on this stuff

Ellipses of death. Committed to Florida. I saw him at VU vs Bama and the coaches were all over him. May have been an NIL deal.

Admittedly, getting ahead of the "game" here as we have Jackson State on Saturday but . . .

On paper, a "tough" first game opponent . . . .as Nevada is 3-0 with an upcoming game versus a 1-2 Santa Clara team.

A number of five year players and a fair number of transfers among the top 8 plus a couple of "bigs" at 6'10 who play.

Will get either Seton Hall or VCU in the 2nd game (VCU destroyed BC earlier this year while Seton Hall may have a lean year as they lost a lot from last year's team as evidenced by one-point losses to Fordham and Hofstra, albeit both on the road.)

Just wanted to take a quick look at the guys from last year's team that transferred out and how they are doing. So far, only Tyrin Lawrence and Colin Smith are in the starting lineups for their new teams.

Cornell - 3 minutes / 0-0 FG / 0 pts, 1 reb, 1 TO, 1 foul

One has much needed size, the other is a gunner. Do we know if either is going to be able to play this year?

Cal followed up the big loss to us with a big win on the road at Southern Cal. Always good to see whiny Musselman lose

Joey will be there covering for us.

Would love to see a breakout of our 24 transfers.
London Humphreys had a good game.
Savion Riley had a good game, but we upgraded the position.
John Howse IV had a good game, but we upgraded the position.
Josh Palmer had a good game but in Junior College.
Deago Benson had an okay game against low competition.

I can't find any evidence our other 19 transfers did much notable. Would be interesting if we can say at the end of the year our only real loss was London Humphreys. That's certainly the case after week 1.

Nico goes 12/19 for just 93 yards but Sampson is a hoss. Do we stand a chance of holding their run game in check and daring Nico to beat us?

For those that are interested in the stats I have been posting for our transfer players, I figured I would start a similar one for players that were once committed to VU, but flipped to another school before signing.

Once again the opponent has taken over the Titans stadium. This happens a lot, yet people ( local media) love laughing at the Vandy crowds.

We just broke it:

was a crippling call at the time after another beautifully executed trick play. does anyone know what exactly what the refs saw ?

Trent having a good game for the Vikings today……

Any word on his "injury"?

Is it similar to Jones or more Bronny?
