Tennessean: David Williams working on preliminary plans to replace Vanderbilt Stadium

Vanderbilt Stadium is the least impressive home field in the SEC. Athletic Director David Williams knows that, and he aims to make a change.

Williams sat down with the Tennessean’s Adam Sparks for an exclusive interview where he made his plans to replace Vanderbilt Stadium public for the first time. The longtime administrator and vice chancellor is currently weighing his options between an on-campus and off-campus venue, but hopes to have the project underway in “the next three to four years.”
