2015: 6th in average recruit in the SEC
2024: 5th in average recruit in the SEC
2025: 5th in average recruit in the SEC

Where’s the difference? So pay more for 1 spot?

We should have waited till we made a playoff appearance before doing this. I wouldn’t have had any gripe about it. Prove the product on the field is worth paying more for again.

Ok dude you win. We are very much on the path of the product showing paying more is worth it

Cry some more about it and maybe you’ll get your way lol

I will. Thanks!

Get to the playoffs and I’ll pay more

And what about the Pilot sponsorship? I heard kids were gonna rake in NIL from that?

They just keep piling on…

It’s totally different now.

We weren’t paying 8mil to one player. We were never paying the players OUR money previously.

You should show em who’s boss and quit paying to go to games. That’ll learn em.

I did! Showed them what’s up

 

[85SugarVol]

We are now first for the collective system and revenue sharing. Tell me how much has it really helped? The same teams round out the top 10, and we usually finish 10-13.

So essentially, they want us to pay more for the same recruiting results.

Like you, and others have said the big programs will follow suit, so we really don’t have any major advantage over those teams….again.

Should have waited till we made a playoff run (results) and no one would be complaining about this.

I 100% believe you will still be complaining.

People queuing to take the avaliables

We’re recruiting better than we have in 2 decades but people will still complain about recruiting. Fascinating

 

[TrippieRedd]

Odds aren’t in your favor. Hope you don’t gamble

The truck you drive to afford season tix.


The truck you drive to complain about them

Yeah better when you’re talking about our own team.

Again, 5th in the SEC just like 2014, 2015.

Fascinating what happens when you use your eyes.

Is all 10% going to the players or are they gonna skim a few % off for themselves?

Also, they didnt need to add a 10% fee. They already make so much that they could've donated 11% of the ticket prices to the players and never really missed it.

I agree with this, but businesses will always pass on the tax.

 

[Weezer]

It’s the same class I was using in my previous post.

And that’s kind of the whole point? We shouldn’t be 5th in the SEC if we had major advantages.

You can pay more, I don’t care what you do with your money. I’ll wait till we make the playoffs before I start paying even more.

2014: 6th in SEC.

Not paying would have us last in the SEC. Players will go where the money is. They always have.

Yep with a NCAA investigation looming but you refuse to acknowledge that WITH better star ratings which means better players. Fascinating what happens when you use all the facts

I meant paying more for the prices of tickets, etc. we shouldn’t have to do all that again.

All I was saying is they shouldn’t increase **** again till we make the playoffs.

I think players should be paid.

Amen

What about Dooley. I feel like that should be 50% off for 1 big game.

 

[DD4ME]

This was a great story about Josh. Josh is the opposite of Butch and Dooley, because the more I hear about him in other spaces the more I like him.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Why is the UT logo the only one that is not the appropriate color for the school? On3 hates UT? That is the only reasonable conclusion we can draw.

It's either one of our main colors, white or black, and white probably looked better on the graphic.
