It’s that time of year again! The time where I tell you that Vanderbilt stinks in perpetuity and it takes the most crafty recruiter, gifted salesman, and culture guru to drag the smart-kid school of the SEC to 9 wins per year. Unfortunately, that guy now coaches at Penn State and Vandy is hoping that their new guy can replicate his success.
But, for all of the noticeable inequities it has to manage that its conference brethren do not have to deal with, Vanderbilt is a solid job for a college football coach. The expectations are low, the leash is long, and you’ll get paid like an SEC coach even if you can’t perform like an SEC coach.
