I am certain season tickets will go up as well as individual tickets and concessions anywhere from 15%-25% Just watch.Somebody has to pay for this years downward spiral.

This is stupid, ticket prices will not go up in wake of this current economy recession and after the worst season of football in UT history.

hahahaha i was at the SC game and there was this drunk dude wearing a UT jersey going up to random people and kept saying "We're paying the piper this year man, we're paying the piper". this reminded my of that.

You must not have followed UT football very long.

UT will raise ticket prices because the sky above Neyland is a pretty shade of blue.

You're "certain" that tickets and concessions will increase by 15%-25%?

How can you be so "certain" about random percentages that you pulled out of thin air?

Granted, I've never owned UT season tickets, but if there was ever a year NOT to raise ticket prices, it is this year.

I've had Titans season tickets for 10 years, and they would NEVER raise ticket prices if the team had a bad season.

The sky is falling, but before it does a hole will open up below us and swallow us whole. We're going to have to start stapling dollar bills together to create super dollars. Inflation requires larger bills. 12 quarters glued together should get you a whopper junior. The anti-christ has risen, the sky has darkened, global warming is upon us, oh woe are we!"

They just raised ticket prices for the first time in how long? I don't think they're going to raise them again just because the revenue has been off. Any competent AD should have a plan in place for an off year. They happen too often to just ignore. I'd put it 1 out of 100 chance that prices go up 15 - 25%.

If they intend to raise prices, this hire had better shake the souls of the UT faithful. I have realized I can still wake up on Sunday's in the fall and not have had to watch UT play. It will take something special to shake this apathy, much less endure more price hikes to boot.

$10 mil buyout for fulmer and all his coaches, plus millions more for new coaches, staff, benefits, etc. Ticket prices may go way up!

I would be SHOCKED if ticket prices rose much more than a few bucks. 25% is absurd.

Raising ticket prices after this season sounds like the most assinine thing I may have ever heard. Hamilton said they have an account for unseen circumstances. Hopefully that is enough to make the transition.

Ticket prices may go up if they think people will pay it, but I'm sure Jim Haslam is taking care of the Fulmer bill.

Hamilton is on record as saying no booster has ever helped with a buyout and no booster ever will under his watch. He said this a week before the Fulmer ouster. And for those interested, Fulmer even knew he was getting canned by then.
