Ranking each SEC football head coach entering 2024 season
16. Clark Lea, Vanderbilt
Lea enters his fourth season in Nashville with a 9-27 record. Vanderbilt is nearly an impossible place to win, but having two two-win seasons in three years is hard to stomach. Lea fired both of his coordinators in the offseason hoping to create a spark. The program hired Tim Beck from New Mexico State to manage the offense, while Lea will run the defense. If he cannot win at least one or two more games in 2024, this could be his final season with his alma mater.
