Tulane ranked #23/#24( AP/Coaches). Should relegation be on table for Vandy?

A 3 yr membership on the line in a winner take all bowl game at the end of the season.
I really think the SEC needs to force this on Vandy.
There is absolutely ZERO reason that Vandy, with getting their full SEC share, should not be able to field a competitive football team. Tulane has been putting together back to back outstanding seasons ( Win over USCw and played Ole Miss really well).
Perhaps this relegation would force Vandy to get their shite together and priorities more in line with the rest of the conference.
At this point their taking of an SEC share is tantamount to stealing.
The relegation game versus Tulane would be hyped up like no other. Literally they would be playing for $180m-$200m. It would be epic.

Who disputes this ?
But a $200m relegation game would be freaking awesome.
It would be no holds bard blood game for the two universities.

All trolling aside, Willie Fritz has done a very good job at Tulane.

Comparing Tulane academics to Vandy.

When players come for a visit and see a shitty high school stadium that even Vandy fans are ashamed of that’s what you get.
Even if the city of Nashville offered them Nissan Stadium those lib-tards would turn it down.
Football is too manly these days for Vandy to invest in.
I went to game there last year it was horrible
Vandy could easily fill a 50 or 60k stadium if it wasn’t an embarrassment for the fans

Mite be wrong or just old or no longer relevant but does Vandy have an athletic director? Seems like they had consolidated a couple of different dept. & appointed a director to run the new dept??? This would have been several ago when a new president came in. Mabe ?

Tulane was a charter member of the SEC. I’m for a relegation game. Time for Vandy to EARN the privilege of being in the SEC. If the league is worried about academics, bring back Sewanee.

We get that Tulane is the "Vanderbilt of Louisiana"...
But that doesn't make it equal to the actual Vanderbilt.

First off, Tulane left so frick em. Secondly, according to the bylaws, Vandy only has to field a team to stay in the SEC.
Third, they've been in since the beginning, so no.
As for the state of the Vandy program. They hit the goldmine with Franklin and never should have let him leave. They were going to bowls and winning games. They decided to follow up his run at Vandy with Mason. That was a completely moronic move and erased all of the progress they made as a program seemingly overnight. Lea isn't a bad coach but he's playing catch-up now.

Honestly I hope we end up in a bowl vs Tulane if we don't make the playoffs this year. That'd be a damn good game.

Get the band back together, let Tulane and GA Tech back in.

Tulane would quickly swallow LSU so I’m cool with this.
Although Tulane’s academics are arse compared to Vanderbilt. Vandy is actually moving the needle in the world and Tulane just gets to say they’re smarter than LSU.
Sort of still prefer Vandy. Don’t want our players being required to experience your crime riddled Louisiana cities that often. Baton Rouge is bad enough. I don’t want them having to stay in NOLA also.

They just don’t care about football
The basketball/ baseball facilities are nice
Football nope!! Those liberals don’t care!!
Sucks because Vandy could be as big as any other program. They have plenty of money and boosters would throw in but Vandy’s administration doesn’t care about football.
That stadium proves it even with the cheap arse renovations they are working on.
I think they even lose seating with it
Nashville is probably the fastest growing cities around very expensive to live there has tremendous potential for Vandy’s football program. But seriously they don’t care I personally feel bad for their fans they deserve better.
UT Martin stadium is actually nicer with half the seats or less Murray States is nicer
The SEC really needs put some pressure on a few schools to catch up or leave.
