Vandy247 Podcast

That, and a bunch of other questions about or related to Vanderbilt basketball, were asked to men's hoops color commentator Tim Thompson in this edition of our podcast.

Vanderbilt sideline reporter Mitch Light gives his thoughts on Vandy's bowl bid and answers a number of questions in regard to football and basketball. 

Vanderbilt men's basketball color commentator Tim Thompson sees a bright future for the program under Bryce Drew, but also encourages fans not to count out a nice year for the current team after a nice last week of basketball. Thompson talks about what he's liked, most notably, recent improvement from guards Riley LaChance and Matthew Fisher-Davis. 

Vanderbilt's last two wins over Ole Miss and Tennessee provided as much excitement for the football program as we've seen in a long time. A look inside how Vanderbilt did what it did in the final five games may lend more excitement for the future. Chris Lee and Seabass talk about what VU and coach Derek Mason did right down the season's stretch to give Commodore football fans one of their more unforgettable endings to a football regular season in decades. 

Vanderbilt's 45-34 upset, which may have knocked Tennessee out of the Sugar Bowl, is one Vanderbilt fans will remember for a while. From Kyle Shurmur's fantastic day, to Ralph Webb's entering the VU history books, to bad officiating calls, good play calls, and a defense that wasn't great, but was good enough, Chris and Mitch hit all ends of Saturday night's win. The two also talk about VU's 1-2 hoops performance from last week, and take some positives from that. 

Chris Lee and Seabass discuss a bunch of things, including where Vanderbilt can take advantage of Tennessee's weaknesses, what coach Derek Mason's Vanderbilt future might be with, or without, beating Tennessee, the significance of the Ole Miss win, and the short- and long-term future of men's basketball at Vanderbilt. 

Chris Lee and Vanderbilt sideline reporter Mitch Light discuss Vanderbilt's outstanding performance in a 38-17 win over Ole Miss, plus, talk some hoops. 

Chris Lee and Seabass talk about the upcoming Ole Miss games, discuss some things they've liked with men's basketball, and discuss the uncertain future of football coach Derek Mason.

Chris Lee has a lengthy interview with baseball coach Tim Corbin. Topics include the health of his team, freshmen who could contribute, the status of the catching position, whether seeing his team get raided by the MLB Draft has changed any of his recruiting philosophy, and update on facilities, and much more.

Mitch Light and Chris Lee discuss a football loss at Missouri and a basketball loss to Marquette. The two discuss whether Bryce Drew can fix some things coming out of Friday's loss, and the plusses and minuses of how the football offense has been assembled, and the talent on that side of the ball. Also, Chris shares a funny anecdote from his 2-year-old son as he watched the Missouri game.
