NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) Vanderbilt coach Bobby Johnson underwent surgery and is wearing a sling on his left arm after breaking his collarbone in a bicycle accident while on vacation.<br>
<br>
``Like some of those Tour de France guys, I fell off my bike,'' Johnson said. ``It required surgery because it was at a point on the collarbone where it would not have healed together properly by itself.''<br>
<br>
The accident happened Friday in South Carolina and the surgery was Monday, Johnson said.<br>
<br>
The sling is keeping him from making quick movements and letting others know not to touch his arm because he has an injury, Johnson said.<br>
