    Pruitt hits NCAA

    Saw this tucked in article on ESPN web site. Thought you might be interested. "Whatever remaining power the NCAA still has to enforce whatever rules are remaining might be in serious trouble after a ruling last week in an Alabama state court. Doesn't apply to just Pruit but maybe all coaches...

    What Happens If Tennessee Blows Out the Other Team in the Bowl Game?

    Players will want to renegotiate their NIL deals.

    JMU Does Not Belong in Playoffs

    The only ”deserving teams” IMO are ranked in the top five or six. Yes there are a bunch of better teams than JMU that were left out. But you will always get the argument of this team should be in or this team should be out. I would be happy with a 8 team playoff without some teams getting an...

    Is what Lane doing to Ole Miss worse than what he ever did to Tennessee?

    Different sport, basketball, but reminds me of Michigan in 1989 when Frieder was their head coach but took another job about a week before the NCAA tourney. After the 1988–89 season, Frieder accepted the head coach's job at Arizona State but wanted to remain at Michigan for the NCAA tournament...

    And Tony V is officially gone.

    Which begs the question, which is making more money (profit), LV basketball or baseball? I think Kim is only making about $250,000.

    According to the Dave Hooker show, Nico was going to get 2.4 million this year, they say Aguilar is going to get 1.2 mil. I’m a big Aguilar supporter.

    The coaching staff that was working with Aguilar decided to get Nico. That should say a lot but we can hope he turns it around.

    Nico to UCLA?

    Google says top tax rate in California is roughly 13.5% so those numbers sound about right.

    How'd you Feel as a Parent or Family?

    The only reason he came to Tennessee was for the money so it shouldn't be surprising he is leaving because of money. The reason Tennessee went to court to get him was because of potential championship, not because they wanted to help some kid that was in love with UT. And we all cheered. The...

    Non-Lady Vol Basketball News 2025-26

    LSU for the most part played well, They out rebounded SC by a fair margin and the foul calls seemed to favor SC. I think along with LSU foul problems SC made 10 or 11 more foul shots. If we shoot anything like we did against Texas and prevent so many easy layups, we can beat SC. SC will...

    Nil, Revenue Sharing and Title IX

    Despite the NCAA currently forbidding schools from directly entering into NIL agreement, a number of state laws explicitly provide for those relationships. OCR now says that in such instances, NIL agreements would be considered a form of “athletic financial assistance,” and would be used for...

    Anyone heard about this with Nico and parents

    Go on the Lady VOLS thread and tell them that. They think, and they may be right, 90% of the NIL dollars go to the men.

    B1G (Ohio State) Privilege

    Fans will always argue about this but the most meaningful way to determine this is head to head play. Normally SEC comes out on top but as far as the top teams, SEC wasn’t as elite at the end of this year as they normally are. Georgia, Alabama, LSU, Florida were not as elite as they have been...

    B1G (Ohio State) Privilege

    So I guess the SEC made a mistake letting Texas and maybe Oklahoma join the conference??? They will make it harder for Tennessee to be top dog. Maybe should have let Memphis and I don’t know Georgia Tech joined instead or maybe no one. Bet we as a greedy conference wanted the money Texas and...

    If this is the beginning of the end of Kirby Smart at Georgia- his executive decision to continue to play Beck in 2023 is what prevented a breakout

    I can't believe this sarcasm went over so many heads. Actually, I shouldn't be surprised.

    College Football Playoff was set up so well…

    At least Tennessee had a chance this year. The joke to me is so did 11 other teams. Should be a max of 8 teams. But 12 teams means more money and maybe more parity???
