Vanderbilt announced yesterday that its ongoing Vandy United campaign has hit its initial goal of $300 million raised for improvements to athletic facilities (to put a general term on it.)

On one level, this is great; Vanderbilt, after all, badly needed to upgrade its facilities to keep up with the other 13 SEC schools — soon to be 15, when we have to start recognizing Texas and Oklahoma (gets handed a note by Pinman) wait I’m being told that we still don’t recognize Missouri, and they’ve allegedly been in the SEC since 2013.
