    Jake is very knowledgeable and offers great analysis on Vanderbilt. That can and should be your niche relative to the rest of the lineup.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Andrew Allegretta Previews Vanderbilt Football's 2026 Season | CFB | Hour 1 (06-22-26)
Q: How do you see the quarterback competition unfolding with Jared Curtis and Blaise Berlewitz, and what does Tim Beck bring to the offense?
The hosts discuss Curtis's arm talent and confidence, Berlewitz's command from the system, and Tim Beck's adaptable, player-focused approach to offense, which could help the new quarterback(s) maximize the surrounding weapons and running game.
Andrew Allegretta Previews Vanderbilt Football's 2026 Season | CFB | Hour 1 (06-22-26)
Q: What are your general impressions of Vanderbilt's spring practice and how the team looks heading into the 2026 season?
Andrew notes that the team is on the field, building depth, with a focus on the quarterback transition, a deep and athletic defense, and a generally bullish outlook due to the depth and transfer additions, plus the staff's ability to blend talent with existing players.
Impressions on the Titans, and TD's thoughts on Brenden Sorsby | Hour 3 | 6-18-26
Q: TD, has the switch from the 3-4 to the 4-3 created a starting opportunity for a player that didn't last year or cost a starter last year his starting spot?
TD suggests it's not primarily a scheme switch driving opportunities; it's more about individual development and depth chart changes, with a possible edge in some positional battles but no decisive single starter flip due to the scheme alone.
Next Man Up with Jake Lyman: TD Thursday Talking Titans + Latest in NFL | Full Show | 6-18-26
Q: What did you see from Cam Ward during minicamp that excites you for training camp?
Ward showed improved decision-making and faster ball placement, with more comfort in his reads and progression through routes, which gives confidence that his ceiling may be rising as real football returns.
Talking with TD | Hour 2 | 6-18-26
Q: Who are some players you think could surprise and make the roster that people aren't talking about?
TD points to Michael Robinson and Keydrain Callaghan as young players with OTAs and minicamp showings that could earn roster spots and impact the team this year.
