Vandy Coach Meets Insanity Definition

You've heard the definition of insanity. Making the same mistake over and over, expecting a different result.

By that definition, Vanderbilt head football coach James Franklin is certifiably insane.

His senior quarterback, Larry Smith, has not completed even 50 percent of his passes in the past two seasons. He has thrown more interceptions than he has touchdowns. When Vandy beat a weak Elon eleven in its season opener, Smith was his usual self.

After the game, Franklin did say he would like to have seen Smith have a better completion rate, as if that was something a little more practice could remedy.

That is insanity.
