PGA: Masters Tournament - Second Round Michael Madrid-USA TODAY Network

Good morning.

Optional Musical Accompaniment

Vanderbilt men’s golf holds a six-shot lead after the first round of the Mason Rudolph Invitational. Gordon Sargent, fresh off playing in the Masters, shot a 66 in the opening round.

Baseball hosts North Alabama at 6:00 PM CT tonight, taking a quick break from SEC play after recovering from their first loss to win the series against Missouri on Saturday. The weekend will be tougher: South Carolina, ranked sixth in the country, is coming to town. We will of course be covering women’s bowling (except for Andrew.) Hail Pinman. Frankie Sheehy at the Hustler has a recap of the Missouri series.

I’ll obviously devote more than a blurb in the Anchor Drop to this if it has legs, but Jerry Stackhouse’s name is getting dropped for the suddenly open Detroit Pistons job. There was a time when I thought that would be the best thing for all parties involved and now... well, I’m not sure it is.

Former Vanderbilt defensive lineman Malik Langham found a transfer destination at Purdue.
