Good morning.

Optional Musical Accompaniment

We are now 78 days away from Vanderbilt football’s season opener against Hawaii. 78 for the Commodores is offensive lineman Dan Herman. The 6’7”, 310-pound sixth-year senior from Bethesda, Maryland, played in eight games last season, mostly on special teams. He also wrestled at Columbia prior to coming to Vanderbilt.

Enjoy your day, everyone.
