Kaidon Salter putting in the work!

[peaygolf]

I expect that universities will soon add a class to the business school to teach athletes how to manage the related marketing and tax filing activities. We might as well get out in front.

UT has already got that in place

Getting those priorities straight! NIL FTW!

Wow what a moron...kid will never play a meaningful snap here. Ridiculous!!

 

[Chattanooga Butchslappers]

Got to admit though, would be a little bit funny if a Bail Bondsman hired him

 

[Mose Phillip's Watch]

So, do college players have agents?

They better not go spend all their money come tax time

I wonder if D1 athletes will have to be compensated when their mugshots are released to the public?

Would "Just Busted" have to pay him for his mugshot being featired if he was already their paid spokesperson?

 

[Rylee_Vol18]

Ppl still have that shut up and dribble mindset I see… lol relax please he did nothing wrong this time… funny to see if the tone of VN changes if he turns out to be a baller.

What an absolutely TERRIBLE analogy. Nowhere near the same situation. Jesus.

He'll be an issue the entire he's here. At this point we're probably better off if he hits the portal.

I don’t think that analogy is applicable, but if it were, one would have had to actually dribbled in order to be told to “shut up and dribble”. He hasn’t even bounced a ball on the practice field yet, not to mention getting in trouble for some really dumb stuff. You’re not supposed to do those things, but when you’re the Quarterback you’re really not supposed to do those things .

I was surprised by that too. I’m sure they coach these guys on certain ways to market themselves going forward, but there needs to be some PR taught as well. There’s a time and a place for him to do that . Right now isn’t that time and especially not with this fan base.

I remember A lot of people didn’t like Casey Clausen because they thought he was too arrogant. You know, he only beat Florida twice and Bama 3 times and lost 1 road game ever, this kid hasn’t even taken a snap on the practice field I don’t think. Most fan bases don’t like this kind of stuff, and I feel like ours really doesn’t. For right now Salter should probably just keep his head down and do all the things coaches and professors want him to do . If he does that the other stuff will work out here or somewhere else.

I must have missed the story where clausen was involved of the robbery of a fellow student right after he arrived on campus. Lol. There’s no comparison. And for the record I don’t remember a single person complaining about clausen. He was a leader from day one and never created any drama that I can recall.

You never heard people talk about Clausen’s arrogance? Maybe it’s because I was on campus at the time, but Casey’s California cool image wasn’t always completely accepted . I don’t think it’s that way now, but it seemed that way at the time .

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

Looks like he's ahead of the game to me. The Courts just made a ruling. Supreme Court sides with student athletes in NCAA case - CNNPolitics

 

[Blackburn]

Dude needs to keep quiet and put in the work for his team. So far he seems like a spoiled kid looking for attention and a get out of jail free card.

 

[ProudVOLfan]

The only thing he has done for the Vols so far is give us something to talk about, and not in a good way.

Good for him. Usually it takes being way ahead on the depth chart to have the balls to openly market yourself for local businesses. I hope goes and has a monster career and makes all the $$ he wants, but self awareness goes a long way IMO.

Agree that he was often viewed as "arrogant"....however, there is no comparison at this point in their UT career between the two of them. Maybe my revisionist history is giving me selective memory, but I cannot remember Clausen being arrested when he was here...correct me if I am wrong, please.

 

[PA Vol]

They need some type of mentor program, esp for the younger guys.

Didn’t CBJ have something like that? Like an older (player) mentor?

I don’t think I’m articulating my point very well. My point was that even after all Casey accomplished some people were still put off by him a little bit because of his perceived arrogance. And here you have this kid who hasn’t done a damn thing yet, not even practiced and he’s trying to market himself to local businesses. It wouldnt be well received by most fan bases, but especially ours.

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

I guarantee this is not isolated

Casey was definitely a jerk.

 

[Franklin_Vol09]

I met her once...

Hope you got checked for STD’s afterwards

 

[RDU VOL#14]

Casey was definitely a jerk.

I was around him a few times and he definitely had an arrogance about him. I guess that’s how he was though, and you could see it the way he played the game.

 

[FïreBall]

Hope you ain't speaking from experience! I kid I kid...
Nothing to worry about there lol, Although it was a bar I was playing music at.
