"I'm sitting here after game one, kind of thinking about how many games we've got left," Byington said. "It's a long season. It is a tremendously long season. So on the journey, the goal is to keep getting better along the way and see where you are at the end of it." Vanderbilt rolled past visiting Bellarmine 93-47 in the season opener Monday night, with four Commodores starters -- led by Tyler Tanner with 20 points -- scoring in double figures. "With us and with our team, the whole focus was we've just got to learn our team and get better," Byington said. "I played a lot of guys."
