Exactly…crying about losing UT Nike gear like it is fashionable, lol.

That's a lot of NIL money to be spent.

Being successful in all sports gives them greater exposure, and more for us.

 

[Jack Burton]

Remind me again why everyone gets up in arms about this?

Nike used to be a big deal for recruiting. I don’t know if it has as much impact in the NIL era. Maybe in basketball more than football.

I am so far behind the times. I refuse to pay $200+ for tennis shoes.

I'm still stuck with the idea that $109.99 is insane. I've paid a lot for work boots and for a couple pairs of Hoka's, but I can't imagine $150+ for Nike of Adidas tennis shoes. I don't even plays tennis. . .

Plenty enough extra $ to fund Vols Calls 2.0.

before NIL having the trendy brand was all schools could offer (minus trips to the cabin)

now we could be wearing yves saint laurent on the field as long as we are competitive NIL wise

this deal helps us big time

Swain said TN Fans will be very happy once they understand the full investment Adidas is making for TN

Boom! This will be game changing. I think it’s why we have already been winning some of these elite recruiting battles, and it will only get better.

go get some vintage vols champion gear and stop buying overpriced junk

Every t shirt I've bought in the last 10 years has either faded, the stitching has ripped, or has shrunk at least a size. Not to mention usually costing $30. Vintage/ Depop is the way to go. The only business I buy new Vols gear from is Homefield.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

Massive! Y’all are crazy if you think we should stay with Nike for $15 million PER year less!!

 

[Heupel's Offseason Beard]

go get some vintage vols champion gear and stop buying overpriced junk

I got this for literally $8 plus shipping. 30 years old and not a single issue

yep the major athletic brand's quality is = fast fashion and the fact there isn't a massive outrage/investigation into it goes to show the state of things

$200 from nike or $60 from ebay/vintage site that lasts longer and is much more stylish

last couple of years, the November games that I've been to... our fans have BY FAR the best vintage gear. Last year's Vandy game, I saw some ITEMS. very proud of our fans

 

[UpstateVol613]

Wonder how long we will have to wait before the Vol shop starts selling Nike apparel at bargain bin prices?
