Wade Freebeck headlines list of Vanderbilt football departures headed into spring practice

Vanderbilt football released its spring roster Monday, and 16 eligible players from 2016 are no longer with the program. The biggest surprise on the new depth chart? Occasional starting quarterback Wade Freebeck won’t be a Commodore in 2017.

The rising senior appeared in nine games in his college career, but never lived up to the potential that made head coach Derek Mason burn his redshirt halfway through a lost season to become the team’s starting quartberack.

“Wade is looking at options right now,” he told the media after the team’s first practice of the year.
