Vanderbilt at one time said they were considering sharing an off campus stadium with a potential expansion Nashville MLS team. That would be a disaster. If I was a Vandy alum or student, I would do everything in my power to prevent them from moving off campus.

Welp, if it would bring more income into the program, I don't see how it would be such a disaster. USCe's stadium is off campus, and both USCe and UK's basketball arenas are off-campus. It seems to be working out for those schools.
The issue is Vanderbilt is at a point where it needs to upgrade now. No premium seating of any kind, no fan amenities to speak of, and nothing to wow recruits with.
If schools like Tulane, Houston, and Cincinnati can build new stadiums, I'm sure Vanderbilt, with all that SEC money, can do it as well.
