New ESPN Deal should go to 13 programs only, not 14

We all know Vandy is only in the conference because they're a founding member and bring academic credibility.
But they bring nothing athletically. Nothing but female kickers.
Vandy has only been featured in the CBS primetime game six times since 1998. In regards to the new ESPN primetime TV contract, those freeloaders shouldn't get a nickel.

Vandy has recently won 2 CWS titles.
Which is two more than "baseball schools" Arkansas, Mississippi State, and Ole Miss combined.

Don't let your collective hate of the Blue Blood Vols get in the way of the fact that I'm right.

That kind of thinking is what led to the fall of the B12...except there it came with Texas. Tennessee is many things, but they aren’t a Texas.
The SEC is unique because of the all for one mentality.

Vandy exists to keep our dealings private. You need one private school in every conference.

That is a silly statement. If anything Arkansas is a track school and we've won quite a few more national titles than Vandy, both long term and recently. We've also won quite a few more national titles than Alabama.
When it comes to titles across all sports Arkansas, LSU, and Florida rule the roost. Bama might not be sucking hind tit but...

Well I think the other 13 League Presidents and AD's can handle that in a private meeting and strongly encourage the Vandy Administration to take some of the revenues that football is generating and make some investments in the Vandy Football program. For example, 1) Stadium improvements, 2) practice and training facilities, 3) coaching salaries for staff so HC can bring in quality assistants.

You highlighted the issue well.

Reports are that they spent $55mm in athletics, which is dead last. It's half of what Missouri spent who is 2nd to last.

Agreed PO. Let's cut the program who has lost 6 straight games by 12+ points.

Is this how bad Tennessee has fallen? Resorting to trolling Vandy? Have some pride about yourself.

Their athletics are fine, they are just an embarrassment at Football

Looks like they are losing their focus and starting to do gimmicky things. Is it possible they give up the football program down the road?

College baseball sucks though. I'm not sure there is much TV revenue created by baseball. Football and basketball usually subsidizes sports like baseball and gymnastics for most schools.

STFU.
Gigem Vandy!
