Vanderbilt crushing Seton Hall

I’m impressed with their D. They will be tough in Nashville.

Coach Byington coaches a fun style of basketball. Very aggressive on defense and on offense. We have some players too, pretty confident in our top 8 guys.

Drake is actually very good, should be a fun game.

But yeah, the SEC Media voted Vandy preseason 16 of 16, dead last…

I think we’re an NCAA Tournament team but won’t really know until we get into SEC play. The league is so deep.
 
Their OOC schedule is trash. They only beat Jackson State by 13 last Saturday. I think Byington was a really good hire, but their record is only fool's gold until they reach conference play.

Holy mackerel, really?

A) While the score of the JSU game is correct, we were up 22 and we called off the dogs. JSU scored a few garbage points late, not a big deal.

B) We have had a very good non conference schedule. Cal is pretty solid (they beat USC on the road a few days after we blew them out), and Nevada is a very good team, more than likely an NCAA T. Seton Hall isn’t very good but they had the #1 defense in the country and we blew them out, walk ons were in with 2 minutes left. In 6 games, we’ve played 3 solid teams.

C) Nobody is saying Vandy is the best team in the country but for a team that was picked dead last in the SEC, we’re better than that.

Sorry all of that upsets you, brother but it’s nice to see a competent coach and better players win some tough games. It’s been a while…
 
Thanks, Runt! I consume a lot of hoops so as you know, this is why I love this place. Y’all love hoops too!!

Having been born and raised in Nashville, I've seen many a game there at Miserable gymnasium (😂 😉) plenty of misery for opposing teams to go around!

I always enjoy seeing you and the other team's fans that come here regularly to talk hoops. You're more valued than most of you know, I'd say!

It'll sure add to an already fascinating season to see how well Vandy can come along. The Stackhouse era just never really worked, or fit there, I think.

The new look Commodores should provide for some tasty games that SOME PEOPLE might not be expecting. Much for the better fur Vandy fans, I might add.

It'll surely be another classic game between UK and Vandy this year. And heck, I always dreaded losing to the Dores', which has happened so many times there in Nashville. Always a tough game.

Nothing in the SEC is a given this year !
 
Undefeated Vandy vs. undefeated Drake tonight on espn. Should be a good game. Vandy favored.

Should be a good game.

We have a totally new team but here is a little preview for those that want to tune in in an hour on ESPN.

AJ Hoggard - PG and Mich St transfer. He’s been good so far.

Jason Edwards - Is a small scoring guard, fun to watch play.

Devin McGlockton - 6’7 but long and plays mostly down low. He’s been our most consistent player.

Tyler Tanner - Freshman from Nashville, he’s been training with Darius Garland’s coach for years and it shows. He’s an exciting player.

We have a few others but I gotta run!

Go SEC!

We played poorly tonight, credit to Drake. That was by far and away our worst game of the year.

I do think Drake ends up in the Top 25 over the next several weeks. They’re solid.

Just found out McGlockton was hurt which is why he didn’t play in the second half. If he’s hurt for a while, we’re in trouble.

Devin McGlocton is 1 of 2 bigs in our rotation and our best all around player. That makes sense that Drake crushed us.

Tough loss for the Dores'. But the future is looking much better. Drake is far better than I thought.

But I'm a Basketball Bennie, so of course, I know nothing. 😂

Hang tough, Friedas! Lots of hoops to enjoy this year!
