I find it odd a Vandy player would tweet this. Is this supposed to be in response to Elder's tweet yesterday?

They just Got Brandon Vandenburg to commit.

Given how worried people are about getting called out by Vandy fans for spelling and grammar, this is hilariously ironic (Brandon Vandenburg tweet tonight):
@Vandenburg85 Ancherdown!!! #committed

Actually, not this past year. Probably at least three-fourths of the crowd was Vandy fans.

Nope. My estimate confirmed by others I asked 60/40 Orange. Down from customary 75/25. Vandy couldn't sell out its home opener vs SCar and Spurrier in that OVC ballpark. One season wonder. Lucky to get weakest UT, Auburn and UK teams in decades plus knocked out Mizzou QB in 1st Qtr. Perfect storm and once in a generation season for perennial SEC doormat. Franklin should move on from this coaching graveyard before it ends yet another promising career.

I was at that game.... There's no way it was 60 percent UT.... There was even some Bama fans at that game--->

The fact that the fan percentage is being debated is what's concerning..

I estimated the night of the game that it might have been 80/20 Vanderbilt. It wasn't even close to 60/40, and it certainly wasn't more UT fans than Vandy fans.

Vandy was 1-4 vs teams with a winning record, and their one win (NC State) didn't have a head coach. Vandy is and always will still be Vandy.

Vandy won this year. But what do you think about when you think about Nashville ? Country Music ! When you mention the state of Tennessee to anyone. What do your hear! Go Vols ! Good night !
