Mark Byingtons Future at Vanderbilt: Despite North Carolina Rumors, Hes Staying Put

Mark Byington, Vanderbilts head coach, is expected to remain with the Commodores next season, despite recent rumors linking him to the North Carolina job. His contract extension, which includes an eight-figure buyout, and Vanderbilts generous name, image, and likeness pool, have made him an attractive candidate for other schools, but he has shown no signs of leaving.

Byington has been actively engaged with Vanderbilt, participating in media events and quickly hiring replacements for assistants who have left. He has not been shopping himself around, even with North Carolinas appeal.

On the staff front, Vanderbilt is looking to hire Andrew Wilson, who worked with Byington at James Madison and Georgia Southern, to replace Jon Cremins, who recently took the head coaching job at Georgia State.

In other news, freshman guard Jaylon Dean Vines has entered the transfer portal, seeking opportunities elsewhere.
