Vanderbilt athletic director Candice Lee joined 102.5 The Game on both Tuesday and Wednesday to discuss her biggest move in year one as Vandyâs AD: hiring Notre Dame defensive coordinator and former Commodore Clark Lea as the new head football coach earlier this week.
âItâs very clear that heâs one of the top coordinators in the country, arguably the top coordinator in the country, for a reason,â Lee said Wednesday morning on
Robby and Rexrode on 102.5 The Game.
âI was looking for someone that checked a lot of boxes,â Lee continued. âEven though we had great interest in this position, it was very much a niche hire because we were looking for a lot of things. There was only a small group, I think, that can fill a lot of things to move forward and provide what Commodore Nation needs. It was just very clear that Clark was that person.â
