Anchor Drop, July 10, 2022: 48 Days to Kickoff

Good morning.

Optional Musical Accompaniment

We are now 48 days away from Vanderbilt football’s August 27 season opener at Hawaii. There is no 48 on the roster; last year’s 48, C.J. Taylor, switched to 13 over the offseason. (Again, freshmen don’t have jersey numbers yet and presumably they’re still earning them.)

Not a whole lot of news today, today being a Sunday in the middle of July and still like a week away from SEC Media Days. Robbie Weinstein lists Vanderbilt’s ten X-factors heading into the 2022 season.

Other than that, I got nothing. Your local friendly Vanderbilt sports blogger is getting bored.
