Now that spring practice has officially started in the SEC, we figured we would take a page out of the Big Ten blog's book and look at each SEC program to determine the exact state of each by using recent performance, win-loss trends, coaching and current and future personnel as indicators.
Up next: Vanderbilt
2015 record: 4-8 (2-6 SEC)
Three-year record: 16-21
Coaching situation: Wait-and-see. There was some thought that Derek Mason was on the hot seat last season. No one expected James Franklin-level success right away, but a miserable 3-9 campaign with no conference wins put a bad spotlight on Mason’s rookie season.
