Florida stormed back from a 21-3 deficit against Vanderbilt on Saturday to escape the Commodores home field with a 37-27 win. But that was far from the most important highlight of the game.

Two Vanderbilt players were shot Monday night while attempting to help a teammate retrieve his cell phone, which had been stolen hours earlier. Both players are expected to recover from their injuries; the phone, as of now, remains stolen.
After trailing Northwestern for much of the afternoon, Vanderbilt looked as if they were going to do the nation a favor by coming from behind to knock the Wildcats out of their first-ever tournament in the first round. But, alas, it wasn’t to be. Vanderbilt went up by one point with just 17 seconds left—and then…
Another retrial has begun for one of the former Vanderbilt football players originally convicted of rape last year. It was more than a year ago when a jury found Cory Batey and Brandon Vandenburg guilty on all charges for their parts in raping an unconscious woman and recording the attack on cell phones. But the…
Auburn pitcher Justin Camp must have a notoriously slow windup or Ethan Paul must be an exceedingly brave baserunner, because during the seventh inning of this afternoon’s Auburn-Vanderbilt baseball game, Paul took off and stole home on Camp. Vanderbilt’s two other baserunners also managed to advance, and they pulled…
I can’t think of another shot quite like Josh Henderson’s 70-foot buzzer-beater at the end of the first half of Vanderbilt’s 87-74 win over Florida. The low angle of the damn thing makes it nearly impossible, like an inch off in any direction would have sent it careening into the stands. It’s like an outlet pass with…
We’ll never hide our appreciation for CBS stalwart announcer Verne Lundquist, and he was at his best during this wild play during today’s Georgia-Vanderbilt game when Commodores punter Tommy Openshaw mishandled the snap and managed to rumble for a first down. “WHAT THE HECK!?”
Sure, football players are supposed to be relentless, tough, and intelligent, but that last part of Vanderbilt football’s motivational tweet seems poorly worded, considering that whole—you know.

Vanderbilt rightfielder Rhett Wiseman was a third-round pick in this year’s MLB draft, but after catching a fastball to the neck from TCU’s Tyler Alexander in the first inning of tonight’s College World Series game, we can’t imagine he was thinking much about his upcoming payday with the Nationals.
Okay, fine, of course you will. It’s obviously Vanderbilt. He looks just like a Dansby, too.

After just three hours of deliberation, a jury found former Vanderbilt football players Cory Batey and Brandon Vandenburg, who were accused of raping a woman on the Vanderbilt campus in 2013, guilty on all charges. Both Batey and Vandenburg were found guilty of multiple counts of aggravated rape and sexual assault.
They were supposed to celebrate that night. It was mid-August, and Kyle Fuller, Eric Schulman, and Jerry Castro were all together in Nashville. The Tennessean had posted an article about their book project, a Kickstarter-funded look at Fuller's life as a Vanderbilt basketball player and student entitled Below the…
Penn State football coach James Franklin, who was Vanderbilt's football coach at the time of the alleged rape involving players Brandon Vandenburg, Brandon Banks, JaBorian McKenzie, and Cory Batey, testified through Skype at today's hearing for two of the suspects. The most noteworthy part of his testimony: Franklin…
UMass — the University of Massachusetts football team — blew a 31-20 lead on the road at Vanderbilt, and then missed this 22-yard field goal that could've sent it to overtime.
One Vanderbilt fan was so sick of the Commodores' performance in a 41-3 loss to Ole Miss that he walked down the stands and threw his shirt and hat onto the field, then walked away, shirtless and presumably still fuming.
At the start of the second quarter of last night's Temple-Vanderbilt game, referee Ken Williamson popped over to the sideline to explain a penalty to the crowd: "Per NCAA rule, Vanderbilt is being charged with a team timeout each quarter, because of— [pause to make a face that lets everyone know he's just as baffled…
