A Bodacious Break

Nov. 24, 2013—What better way to get back into the swing of blogging than to leave Vanderbilt? I jest, but this one is coming to you from Oak Ridge, TN, as I begin my Thanksgiving break mere miles from the site of yesterday’s football victory over UT, denying UT a bowl game for a second year in...
