In Commodore Centennial – Celebrating 100 Years of Vanderbilt Stadium, hundreds of vintage photographs, memorabilia, and illustrations, many never before seen, bring the Vanderbilt Stadium story to life, and with it the story of Commodore foot- ball from its historic beginnings to the present day. You will go back to when Vanderbilt students formed the university’s first football team in 1890, learn of the exploits of the legendary coaches and players who wore the Black and Gold through the decades, and relive some of the most historic and thrilling events in the history of the South’s first football stadium. This once-in- a-century book by author Andrew Maraniss includes a foreword by Vanderbilt athletic director Candice Lee on why Vanderbilt Stadium is hallowed ground. Commodores head coach Clark Lea pens a reflection on what Vanderbilt Stadium meant to him as a young boy and as a student-athlete playing in the stadium, and what it means to him to lead the Vanderbilt program in this historic venue. This commemorative book will be a collector’s item for Commodores fans of all ages. Anchor Down and enjoy!
