NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Vanderbilt men’s basketball will be hosting a tailgate Saturday at Vandyville beginning at 5 p.m. near Lot 1 at the corner of Natchez Trace and Dudley Avenue. Head Coach Jerry Stackhouse will be on the grill, the team will be signing autographs, and fans can play games, win prizes, and stop by for giveaways before Vanderbilt football takes on UConn at 6:30 p.m. at Vanderbilt Stadium.
Free food courtesy of Chef Stackhouse is available to all (while supplies last), while the first 100 students to the men’s basketball tailgate will receive a free t-shirt. Fans can enter-to-win prizes, including tickets and a signed basketball, as well as play pop-a-shot and lawn games with fellow fans and Vanderbilt men’s basketball student-athletes.
The team will be signing autographs between 5-5:30 p.m.
The Commodores welcome back leading scorer and All-SEC first-team selection Scotty Pippen Jr. and returning starter Jordan Wright. A pair of experienced graduate transfers and three incoming four-star freshmen are also aboard for head coach Jerry Stackhouse’s third season at the helm of the Commodores.
