Commodore Nation!! Billy Derrick here, formerly of The Dore Report, a fan podcast that many of you are probably familiar with. I have handed the TDR keys to Will Byrum and Trevor Hulan. I hope many of you continue to listen, but I'll be joining VandySports.com to elevate the coverage for you guys even more.
First off, I can't thank Chris Lee enough for the opportunity of a lifetime. I have a tremendous amount of respect for the longevity of this site and that is due, in large part, to his hard work and dedication. Born and raised in Nashville, I grew up going to football, basketball, and baseball games and listening to the VandySports podcast. When Chris approached me about this idea, there was really zero hesitation. The credibility, relationships, and experiences I'll be able to have while a part of the VandySports team is unparalleled. For a dream opportunity, thank you, Chris.
I also can't wait to work with Joey Dwyer, Sean Williams, Luke Wyatt, Chip Fridrich, Justin Angel, and Drew Toennies to provide the very best coverage Vandy fans have ever had. Joey's work on the beat has been outstanding, he caught my eye immediately. Sean has been covering recruiting longer than most. Luke and Chip are entrenched into the fabric of Vanderbilt as much as anyone. Drew is another talented recruiting guru. That team of coverage is tough to beat.
I know Chris has told y'all about some of the coverage plans, but I'm here to say prepare yourself for elite content. It all starts Tuesday morning with Clark Lea taking the podium at SEC Media Days. Fall camp starts the week after and before you know it, Vandy & Hawaii will be knocking heads.
Also: My first article has been posted, Father Ryan (My alma mater, ironically) LHP Matthew Shorey committing to Vanderbilt.
Looking forward to providing you with more great coverage!
