Defensive? How so?

What do you want exact figures on what athlete gets what? How much is spent on which programs?

The AD gets all that information and also audits Spyre. You want that to be public info where other teams know exactly how much money Tennessee has to utilize?

We’ve been going in circles on this - I don’t think you have to go into the weeds and get specific information, at least not until everyone else is required to do the same. But you can give audit information to such a degree that it doesn’t betray “competitive advantage” but also gives enough information to allay concerns with management or financial stewardship. You see it happen with companies all the time - hell I see it with SOC2 and SOX reports from organizations we do business with all the time. They dont give away the farm, but they give enough information, backed up by a reputable third party, to give everyone enough assurance that everything is above board.

May be necessary. I’m sure to this point the AD auditing them was thought to be sufficient. I wonder if these collectives thought they would be this big this fast when everything started.

Not saying I believe it all. Some things make you think where there is smoke there is fire though.

If not true, stuff like that shouldn’t be banned but local media and the program itself could do a lot more to dispel rumors.

I feel like Spyre has always needed something more in the way of an official endorsement from the program. QR codes on the walls on Neyland saying help with NIL, etc. You can’t blame casual fan for being leery without some more official promotion.

You mean like this….

The school has heavily endorsed the Volunteer Club. Do I think they could do more? Yes. But they work closely together.

AtoZ is satire and the fans complaining have absolutely nothing to do with winning or losing

Those are the 3 star and less ranked players

That isn’t always true either… there are 5 stars as well who are not simply motivated by dollar signs. Culture, potential teammates, scheme, location, are also factors, along with several others each is weighted differently from person to person. There are some who would take a a family oriented culture over an extra buck some place w/ a toxic culture. Money doesn’t equal happiness for everyone.

Lanning has lost his creativity. Multiple coaches need to be fired. Talent gap was exposed on a national stage. Humiliation. Team will never recover. Oregon NIL is stealing money from their fans. Fans have a right to be pissed and should boycott their own team’s NIL and organize a fan no-show home game. Oregon is doomed to return to its days of mediocrity and obscurity. All their players think about is money. Lanning is not the guy. Portal nightmare incoming. Oregon should drop football. Baseball school is their only hope. College football is dead.
Am I doing this right?

Recruiting Forum regular and known insider @KingVFL is on record stating that the Spyre BS started by S.Sparks and spread by others on this very board is already being used against us by other teams. So, yes, things like that do matter.

Be part of the problem or be a part of the solution.

No they really don't matter. Only thing that matters is NIL $$$. If message boards scare a recruit away, then he was too soft to begin with

Yeah, my contributions are the equivalent of a pair of shoes for the running back. So if it weren’t for me, Samson would be running around barefoot. Go me! And, I’ll bitch if I want to.

Wrong actually. You pay more for your cable for 4 months than a pair of shoes. If you're blaming fans, then you are the real problem.

Tons of trolls no doubt on all SEC boards. It just means more. There are plenty of legit Vol fans with BVS though.

Yeah, tracks with mental illness numbers of the nation as a whole. Manic and schizophrenic issues abound. Says so on the internet so it must be true.

Denial huh? You saying the reports are not true or that the reported reactions exist but are not valid? Dang near anything can be a tie breaker in these situations.

Fan negativity really played little in it period. This was a locker room and team leadership fix. Losing to Michigan was just a backdrop. OSU beats Oregon by 14+ tomorrow and I think will win it all.
Which will just confirm you can buy a team.

Bump. OSU is on a roll. Which will prove that rankings will get you to the CFP but will not win the games. Talent is there and came together at the right time.

They will beat TX another well invested player team.
And the other teams on the other side of the bracket aren't capable of beating them.

We hit a talented buzz saw plain and simple that came together at the right time.
If they had won against Michigan and played in the CC they may have lost.
Instead, they had 3 weeks to get their act together and they did.
Get the talent, get great coordinators, and stay focused.

OSU will win this thing this year. Fixed? Incompetence of the committee/NCAA to realistically seed the teams accordingly. It would not have made a difference in the final outcome if OSU wins it all but would have made for better viewing on NY day
