The Commodores are playing better football than more than half the teams in the SEC.
NASHVILLE, TN - SEPTEMBER 07: Vanderbilt Commodores head coach Clark Lea stands with his team to sing the alma mater following a game between the Vanderbilt Commodores and Alcorn State Braves, September 7, 2024 at FirstBank Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee.
Can Vanderbilt emerge as a legitimate SEC contender now that boosters can legally funnel money to players? It’s a crazy question, but these are unprecedented times. Vanderbilt was the original Southern football superpower. I’ve always said that the Dores could be great at football again if they just chose to be.
The last time Vandy was decent? The Dores went 9-4 overall and 5-3 in the SEC in 2012. That season launched the career of coach James Franklin, who is now in his 11th season at Penn State and making $10 million per year. Vanderbilt hosts Alabama on Oct.5 and goes to Auburn on Nov.2. The last time Vandy knocked off Alabama and Auburn in the same season? The year was 1955. Alabama was coached by the notoriously awful Jennings B. “Ears” Whitworth. The score was Vandy 21, Alabama 6. Vanderbilt, coached by Art Guepe, finished the regular season with seven wins and then defeated No.8 Auburn 25-13 in the Gator Bowl.
Kill, widely respected throughout college football, stepped down at New Mexico State to join the revolution at Vanderbilt. He’s now a special advisor to the team. How long will the recruits, powers at be and donors believe in him if there is not a quick improvement? Freeze is in a position that he has to win this season or it all crashes down faster than a pyramid scheme. At this point I am not completely buying into Freeze. Why do I have that bad feeling in my gut that everyone might have bought into the Freeze pyramid.
