| Should Vandy be set free? I say this with a heavy heart because my dad went to Vandy and so im not trying to hate on them. But when we all think about it, it is not fair to have vandy in the SEC. not only do they have to compeate with us in tn for the scraps of tn talent.. they have crazy academic standards... i think vady would fit in alot better even maybe in the ACC...or maybe the academic conference with brown and yale and etc...
i know they probably would never leave bc of money...but soon or later their little fanbase wont take it anymore and they will be playing in a empty stadium... what do you all think?
who would you replace them with? i vote texas AM..

| I don't think they fit in the SEC. Their football program should be in something like Conference USA. |

| As far as football, I see where you're coming from. But Vandy's one of the finest universities around and at least they can play basketball, unlike South Carolina. Vandy actually offers more to this conference than some other schools.

| | Senior Member | I can't believe how many people want to take a near-guaranteed win over an in-state rival off our schedule. And, Vandy is competitive in other sports. Posted via VolNation Mobile |

| Vandy helps prop up the GPA and grad rate of the conference. That's why they'll never be asked to leave. |

| | Spike Drinks, Not Trees | I cannot see them ever wanting to leave but their fanbase is dwindling. Most of the actual alumni who attend the games are grey hairs. The student attendance is awful. The frat houses host parties for returning alumni on gameday and almost all of the active students will stay at the house and watch other games on TV rather than actually attend the VU game. Most of the people in the stands are either folks who work on campus or at the hospital and get discounted tickets or people who just want to see a little SEC football live without having to drive 3-4 hours. The latter groups can be finicky and I think that once VU loses its "sidewalk alumni" they are finished in the SEC. |
