Good morning.
Optional Musical Accompaniment
Vanderbilt star linebacker Anfernee Orji will not return for the 2023 season, instead electing to enter the 2023 NFL Draft.
Orji played as a true freshman in 2019 and moved into the starting lineup for the 2020 season, and he’s now started 33 games over the last three seasons — and has arguably been Vanderbilt’s best defensive player for the last couple of years. He’ll be missed, but unlike the Portal guys, we’ll only be seeing him on Sundays.
Vanderbilt has its first volleyball coach, Anders Nelson, who was the associate head coach at Kentucky.
