It's not "official official"...but it's pretty damn close. Mason better not like sleep; he's got lots of work to do on the recruiting trail.

Derek Mason is indeed #Vandy's next head coach. Vandy donor and search committee member John Ingram: "Yes sir! ... I am very excited."

A bright spot in an otherwise crappy week. Be ready to have this same discussion next year.

It'll likely be a very different outcome too.

We need Hud to move on, and NOT be the coaching graveyard, but not this year, and maybe even next. If it happening for Hud from here it almost has to be in the next two to three years.

We need to lose that moniker. ASU sent Benny Ellender up in the seventies to TooLame. To bad for him he did not realize he was taking a step down.

----ASU was very very good at the time Ellender was there---but I called him on a talk show one Sunday when he had gotten the Tulane job and he actually answered my question concerning who had the better athletes---His answer was Ark. ST.
