The Vanderbilt Commodores started the 2026 season with a win that left a “bitter” taste in Coach Darren Ambrose’s mouth according to his post-game interview. He used the words sluggish, lethargic, and choreographed to describe the performance. Coach Ambrose harped on being proud and happy with the victory, but he kept focusing on different flaws […]
Soccer season is underway, and I try to wrap this up before Vanderbilt athletics actually resume. But we said we were doing a season finale, and this is what the people voted for it to be. Look, it’s 60s one hit wonders. Most of you probably know these anyway, so I’ll just stick to a […]
We have survived the national nightmare that exists between May/June and August every year as we all pine for college sports to return. Vanderbilt’s soccer team gets the action started tonight at home against SMU. Having already broken down the different positions groups (goalkeepers and defenders, midfielders, and forwards), how does it all come together […]
Vanderbilt’s front line is terrifying for opponents. In the 3-5-2, the 2 forwards/strikers have a lot of freedom of movement. They can stay central or drift into wide spaces to let the CAM replace them centrally or have onrushing wide midfielders overlap or underlap. That freedom being given to very intelligent players is a recipe […]
Moving up the field one “line,” the midfield will likely be composed of 2 wide midfielders (one on the left and one on the right), 2 holding midfielders, and 1 attacking midfielder. The holding midfielders and attacking midfielder will roughly form a triangle. That shaft may twist and elongate during play, but that general shape […]
The Vanderbilt Commodores kick off the 2026-27 sports calendar on August 12th when they welcome the Southern Methodist University Mustangs to West End. The majority of the roster will be very familiar to any fans who watched last season’s team. Head Coach Darren Ambrose will have 67% of his minutes played back from last season’s […]
The second most difficult to fill hole on this roster from 2025 is at Tight End. Eli Stowers went in the second round of the NFL draft as the 54th overall pick. He won the John Mackey Award as the country’s top TE and was named First Team All-American by nearly every major outlet, including […]
Vanderbilt’s aerial attack will have a new starting QB, which is getting most of the attention, but the players on the receiving end will be largely different, too. TE Eli Stowers was the leader in receptions at 62, and WR Tre Richardson was the yardage leader at 806. Both of them are gone. For today’s […]
Vanderbilt soccer has decided to open the public access portion of the pre-season early in 2026. The annual Black vs Gold contest comprises of a number of on- and off-field contests ranging from silly party games to competitions at practice that culminates in an intrasquad match. Until this season, this has been a closed doors […]
