So, I’ll preface this by saying that I like Clark Lea. I think Vanderbilt football showed significant improvement from his first year (2-10) to his second year (5-7), and recruiting seems to be going well. I think Vanderbilt is going to eventually become a winning program on his watch.
With that out of the way: I don’t understand signing him to a contract extension, right now.
