As the Commodores prep to play ETSU on Sep. 4th, here are a few brief storylines surrounding the program: A QB Quandary Ken Seals is the Commodores presumed starter after an... Continue Reading →
Vanderbilt football’s offensive depth took a hit this week. On Thursday, Robbie Weinstein of Vandy247 was first to report OL Drew Birchmeier and RB Ja’Veon Marlow are no longer with the team. https://twitter.com/rwweinstein/status/1420761580749434881?s=20 Birchmeier had spent his entire career on the defensive line before moving to offense as a redshirt senior for 2020.
