Through four seasons at Vanderbilt, Derek Mason is 18-31 overall and 6-26 in the SEC. Among SEC football coaches since World War II who coached at least four seasons at one school, his .367 winning percentage is the fourteenth-worst. (It comes as a surprise to exactly no one that six of the thirteen worse than him were Vanderbilt coaches.)
