Anchor Drop, December 6, 2020: So just what happened?

Good morning.

So... just what’s going on with Vanderbilt football right now? It’s a legitimate question after this:

One thing worth mentioning here is that Mississippi State and South Carolina, like Vanderbilt, are having issues compounded by players straight up leaving the team (also known as “opt-outs”): Mississippi State is under first-year head coach Mike Leach, a person famous for running off holdovers in his first year or two, and South Carolina, like Vanderbilt, fired its coach. Vanderbilt had rumors of a spate of opt-outs earlier in the week, but nobody is really sure what’s going on because the university is silent and somehow, so are the players who opted out.
