Vandy247 Podcast

Vanderbilt changed its approach on offense, and got a different result. Times are also about to change around Vanderbilt athletics, and that could have ramifications for football as well. Chris Lee and Seabass talk about those things, discuss what expectations should be for the rest of the football season, talk about who on the current roster is NFL Combine-worthy, and talk a bit of SEC hoops.

Vanderbilt faces Missouri, Ole Miss and Tennessee down the stretch, all games that are winnable on an individual basis. Chris Lee and VU football color commentator Norman Jordan discuss factors that could influence how those games play out, plus, discuss some things that went well in the Arkansas game.

Mitch Light and Chris Lee discuss Vanderbilt's 45-31 win at Arkansas, and how changes in how the offense was called and how players were used had a big hand. Also, the bye week could come at the right time for the Commodores, who have a few guys banged up.

SEHoops' Blake Lovell joins the podcast for an 1:07 show in which he and Chris Lee preview the SEC from top to bottom, including the teams that could be overrated and underrated. The two talk about how off-season developments at LSU and Missouri since magazines and polls were released could affect those teams. They also talk Vandy hoops for a bit, break down why the Commodores are picked in the middle of the pack by most, and also discuss a hidden danger, and an area of improvement, for VU.

With a rebuilding season on the horizon for 2019, the Commodores need to find some success in the last month of the season to give fans some hope. Chris Lee and Seabass discuss what must change? Plus, the two talk some hoops and baseball.

Jordan Griffin has had 18 tackles in back-to-back games, and now leads the SEC. Amazingly, that doesn't begin to compare with a few Commodore linebackers from the past. Chris Lee and Norman Jordan discuss that, the Kentucky loss, the Arkansas game ahead, and a bit about the Alabama juggernaut.

Chris Lee and Mitch Light talk about VU's 14-7 loss at Kentucky, including how the weather affected things, good tackling and a great game by Jordan Griffin, a bounce-back performance by Kyle Shurmur, play-calling controversy, red zone woes, and more. Plus, Kumar Rocker was the talk of Hawkins Field during VU's baseball scrimmages with Oklahoma State--hear the two talk about that and some more from the baseball weekend.

Vanderbilt hoops color commentator Tim Thompson talks Commodore hoops, and gives a well-thought-out NBA comp to Simi Shittu, as well as talk about the overall athleticism and talent for this year's team. Tim also adds his thoughts on the ongoing FBI trial and also discusses the G League's new policy that it will allow select players to enter its ranks out of high school. This episode is guaranteed to get VU fans excited about the upcoming season.

Chris Lee and Seabass talk about how VU football is following a familiar script, and Seabass answers a question about who he'd like if Vanderbilt made a coaching change. Plus, talk about how hyper-competitive SEC hoops is after the Commodores were picked eighth by the media in its preseason hoops poll.

Over the last two Southeastern Conference seasons, Vanderbilt can't get stops defensively, which means the Commodores have to score tons of points to win. But they're not doing that either despite having some talented offensive pieces. Chris Lee and Norman Jordan look at ways Vanderbilt can do things differently on offense without making wholesale changes or dramatically changing the playbook.
