“I thought it was a really good game for us to work on a lot of things that we needed to get better at. Our first half was really good. I was impressed with our energy, the way we shared the ball and the way we shot the ball,” Vanderbilt women’s basketball head coach Shea Ralph said.

Commodores Quote of The Day

“I knew Parcells was a great coach. Even though he accomplished a lot at that time, Vanderbilt didn’t give him the job and he wanted it. Anybody that played for him back then and afterwards will tell you he was a good, tough coach. Once he had me stay 30 minutes after practice having me tackle with my face. He had me hitting a sled with my helmet and facemask. He was teaching me how to put my face on the tackler. At least that’s what he said it was.”Dennis Harrison
