    Basketball 2022 Scholarships

    *Edited for clarity because my first draft kinda sucked. Assuming no transfers, how many does CJS have to work with in the 2022 recruiting class? Are there slots available beyond Dort, Shelby, and Patterson? Does he have more than three? If Pippen comes back, he’ll definitely leave next year...

    Basketball 2022 Scholarships Available

    Assuming Pippen and Disu are both gone at the end of next season, how many scholarships does CJS have for the 22 class beyond Dort and Shelby?

    Basketball With all of the incoming transfers...

    I am willing to say that if SPJr comes back, this team should at a minimum be a bubble team if I'm going to stay on Team Stack. Really I'd expect better but that's assuming perfect health for everyone (Disu and Lawrence especially). Anything short of that and I'll be ready for a strong-ass...

    Basketball Ron Mercer and Vanderbilt

    It's been a long time, so I need some help refreshing my memory about Ron Mercer. This article from 19 years ago says he was the #1 recruit in the country, desperately wanted to play for Vandy, was denied admission, went to Kentucky, won a national championship, and was picked sixth overall in...

    Basketball MBB: Bama 50, UK 36 @ Rupp

    Alabama is taking UK out to the woodshed in Rupp tonight. They were up 42-30 at halftime and have been getting points at the rim with impunity. Alabama beating #10 UT last week was not a fluke; they look like the real deal. They might be the best team in the conference, certainly in the top 3.

    Any word on if Harvey Stute Clevon or Wright will be back for Richmond?

    Basketball Depth Chart

    I'm going to take a stab at predicting the starters and the rotation for men's basketball for the upcoming season. I listed the roster in another post, so I'm using that data, direct from VUcommodores.com here: Starting 5: F: Clevon Brown 6'8" 232 lbs F: Dylan Disu 6'9" 220 lbs F: DJ Harvey...

    Could Darius Garland have returned from Injury?

    Can someone please alleviate a nagging concern of mine: could Darius Garland have come back during his freshman season to play? I wonder if he could have played later in the season, even if only for a month. I keep thinking that he and his handlers decided to pack it in for the season...

    Hoops Recruiting Is Stackhouse a Good Recruiter?

    I know that this has been a scalding hot topic on the board over the last few months, and Jeff Goodman's comments followed by his podcast with Chris has added fuel to that fire. What I'm asking is does Stackhouse get any credit for recruiting the transfers that he has landed: Isaac McBride...

    DJ Harvey

    Notre Dame transfer DJ Harvey was listed at 6'7" and 180 lbs as a HS recruit. On the ND roster, he was listed at 6'6" and 225 lbs (!!) for 2018-19. Looking at his recruiting hype video, he attacks the basket and has a nice jumper. So what position does that translate into? Would he be a 3 or a...

    Basketball Strength & Conditioning

    Can anyone share anything about the strategy or approach of the basketball strength & conditioning staff? Any insights about Drew's S&C staff and how Stackhouse's staff differs? What about Stallings? I'm personally very interested in this and I've been practicing and studying it ever since I...

    Basketball Would VCDW have fired Bryce Drew?

    This is just a hypothetical. If Vice Chancellor/Athletics Director David Williams III (may he rest in peace) was still with us and was still the AD at Vanderbilt, do you think he would have fired Drew last year following the 2019 season? Would he have first him after this season? What would Drew...

    "I come to bury [Stallings], not to praise him." -Marc Antony in Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare I'm here neither to glorify Stallings' tenure nor to rewrite history. I am here to make sure I have an accurate accounting of what was going on behind the scenes during the final few years of...

    Coach of the year?

    If not Stack, who is the SEC Coach of the Year? I watch the ‘Dores, but don’t follow much else SEC basketball-wise. Stack took a historically bad team, lost his best player and a decent player, and still won three games with walk-ones getting legit time. Who else compares, especially in a down...

    Moyer

    I saw his post on IG today. He was in a sling, so that's not good. People rag on him a lot, but his play has improved lately. Can't expect the world from him, but man, we certainly can't afford to lose him (or anyone) else to injury. Hopefully he's back to health soon!

    I for one am on the @c4realbeard train. I encourage you all to jump on board.

    Basketball OT: Yanni Wetzell

    Lost in our misery this season (apart from the catastrophic losses of Garland, Shittu, and now Nesmith) is the fact that Yanni Wetzell is the second-leading scorer (12 PPG) and leading rebounder (6.4 RPG) on an undefeated (21-0) San Diego State team that is currently ranked 3rd in the nation...
