06:15 AM ET 07.22 | Vanderbilt's recent success on the basketball court is helping its efforts to find the team's future stars. The Commodores' incoming class is considered by many experts to be among the nation's best. After a senior-dominated team won 26 games last season and made a third straight NCAA Tournament appearance, Kevin Stallings' upcoming Vanderbilt squad could be haunted by its youth and the program's past success. They're young -- but talented. The four players who will join the Commodores as freshmen this year comprise a recruiting class that has been ranked 15th-best in the nation by Rivals.com, and all four players are ranked in that Web site's top 100 players for the 2008 signing class.

All basketball coaches are contractually obligated by NCAA/Fannation contracts to be shown LOSING IT in all T&R photos.

As a person following the Vandy program for the last 3 years? People under rate Coach Stallings ability to put together a good team. The freshmen are good players and supporting cast, but the return Sophmores & Juniors will make it happen??

One article that Coach Stallings noted is that everyone talks about the incoming freshmen, but it's the one's you don't get to see will carry the team.

SEC won't be scared, but they may be disrespectful of the case of underclassmen. Just remember this email on 9/27/2008.

Vandy will make some noise. but quietly?
