Adding to his 2024 class, head coach Jerry Stackhouse has received signings from two three-star recruits, Tyler Tanner and Jamie Vinson. The pair will join fellow three-star recruit and Vanderbilt commit Karris Bilal as the foundation of The Commodores’ 2024 class. After signing five freshmen to his 2023 class, Stackhouse will continue to search for talent to fill the potential voids to be left by Ezra Manjon, Tyrin Lawrence and a number of other Vanderbilt upperclassmen. 

Tanner, hailing from Brentwood Academy, chose Vanderbilt over Ole Miss, Belmont and several other Power 5 schools. As a junior, Tanner averaged 19.6 points, 4.2 rebounds and 3.8 assists en route to earning the Gatorade Tennessee Boys Basketball Player of the Year award. At 6’1”, 165 pounds, Tanner is a crafty playmaker who can help assume responsibilities in Stackhouse’s rebuilt 2024 backcourt.

Adding his first big man of the class, Stackhouse will welcome Oak Hill product Vinson to Memorial Gymnasium next season. At 6’10”, 220 pounds, Vinson will predominantly play center for the Commodores and could see early minutes as a depth piece in Vanderbilt’s frontcourt. Vinson chose the Commodores over California, Ole Miss and others.

After securing three members of the 2024 class, Stackhouse will look to fill out the rest of his future roster in the coming months.
