A win or loss by vandy doesn't affect me one way or the other.  It's just a game.

Vandy sucks

Their athletes are literate. That's something foreign to UT fans.

Their athletes get free passes just like every other institution. You can't extrapolate the institutions academic standards onto the athletes. Two separate entities. Anyhow Vandy still sucks

Why can't you? They are held to the same academic standards as any other student.

 

Anyhow, they have a national championship trophy in baseball this year. Oh yeah, how did UT fair against them the last couple of football games? :stir: :D

How have they faired the last couple decades? I'd venture to say y'all should cherish the Dooley years, they appear to be gone. Honestly I'm glad Vandy won I just can't openly root for them, it's against all that's good and holy.

I welcome you to disprove it.

I've taught undergraduate classes at Vandy. Athletes took my class along with normal students. Well, as normal as engineering students can be. :)

Franklin specifically recruited some non-academic stars

I'm being a contrarian for sport, I really don't care that much. As long as we win in November ;)
