Vandy has an Awesome weekend in recruitment., yet still the home page of 247 sports covers other things???? WTH ? How is this not home page type news? For goodness sake lets step away from basketball and a QB recruit that has a 4th? OFFER? come on...we should be reporting the multiple COMMITMENTS to Vanderbilt and the momentum that is being created in Nashville. Am I asking for too much?

Awesome,,,,,,thanks Barton. Sorry to vent on the board but so much positive action has happened especially with Vandy jumping up to #13 in team rankings. I just felt some coverage other than the Vandy 247 was deserved. Again thank you.

I don't want you to think anything was intentional. It's just how the 247Sports home page is populated.
We do not have a national team watching the homepage on 247Sports and pulling content from all over the network (we're way too small a staff for that). All the content there is determined by our team of writers. If our Vanderbilt writer adds a story and includes it with a "network update" too, it will show there (and they usually do that). If they do not, then it won't show there. I don't want to think that we slot certain stories from other fan bases. It's really determined by whether or not the writer added a network update.

For what its worth, I love the content on 247 sports, but my biggest 'gripes' (and I'm new here, so pardon me) are that:
1) the home page is awkward re: the latest stories; and
2) much of other teams' sites is hidden, even when they deal with Vandy targets.
I just wouldn't post about either, but since someone else did...

A lot of that will be fixed when we get our rewrite done and add our feed. You'll be able to follow Vanderbilt Recruiting and anything relevant even from other markets will show.
