Vandy247 Podcast

Basketball has been competitive for four games, and Chris Lee and Mitch Light dive into why. They also have an interesting conversation about the baseball lineup, and how it may not be what people expect.

Chris Lee and Seabass talk about Vanderbilt's continued incompetence towards managing its athletics department and why it happens. They also discuss the football signing class a bit.

Thanks to career nights from Max Evans and Saben Lee, terrific play from Scotty Pippen late in the game and a great coaching effort from Jerry Stackhouse, too, Vanderbilt has finally ended a historic losing streak, and color commentator Tim Thompson joins us to talk about it.

Former Commodore basketball and baseball player Willy Daunic talks about the changing of the guard of athletic directors at Vanderbilt with Malcolm Turner leaving and Candice Lee taking over.

News of athletic director Malcolm Turner's departure broke minutes after Chris Lee and George Plaster did a Tuesday morning podcast... so, let's try this again. The two dive on on Turner's replacement with Candice Lee, talk about reactions to the news and more.

Chris Lee and George Plaster take a stab at that question, find some encouraging things from men's basketball, and attempt to talk about what's been a crazy week behind the scenes for Vanderbilt athletics.

Amidst Vanderbilt's historic losing streak, the emergence of freshman Dylan Disu has been a bright spot. Chris Lee and Tim Thompson discuss Disu and answer listener questions.

Basketball has hit an all-time low in losing, football attendance is the worst in decades, and now, optimism around a game-changing strategic plan for Vanderbilt athletics is shrinking as there's a black hole of information. Chris Lee and Seabass discuss that, and take some listener questions.

Willy Daunic, who played baseball at Vanderbilt, talks about the adjustment to the college game--something to watch, since VU has so many new faces in the lineup. The two touch on basketball and facilities and take a few questions.

Podcast host Chris Lee has a hypothesis: Vanderbilt's athletics problems may directly not stem from the Board of Trust and a lack of concern or an intentional neglect of athletics, but from how information is presented and/or withheld, and how the university operates within a sort of "black box." He and George Plaster discuss that, the death of Kobe Bryant (and within that, a bigger issue of how media covers deaths) and more.
