Hell man, don't bother them and they will not bother you. Ask 'em how they're doing and stuff. Do those things your momma taught you.

In terms of the ride itself-could really use a bottle of mustard attached to the front grill. We gotta stay on brand.

Can we bring anything to help? Is it only for Spyre members? Either way, just let us know. Thank you and GO VOLS

We’re open to anyone tomorrow. Just want to get all tennessee fans together. No need to bring anything. I’m getting a ton of drinks, but would suggest BYOB if you’re into something particular or are looking to really get after it haha - other than that, we’re just excited to get together with everyone.

We will have some food, but it’s a little more limited probably.

Add the words VOL NATION to this buggy and it can become our queen bee before all games. We all flock to the Vol Nation Ambulance!! (and yes, add the keg taps!)

So I think spyre is stealing money. I don't believe that people asking for money then say they will do x will actually do x. It's not hard man, but you need hamsters for understanding. It's not hamster hard. People are greedy.

Meh, you are just cynical. They have just changed it from a university model to a semi-forprofit. Spyre is all about profit but looks like they are managing the business for the non-profit side (Volunteer Club) as well. Their stated model is 90/10 athletes/expenses. IF they are not living up to that then it should be addressed. Not sure how it is organized (c6, etc) but if they have any sense, Spyre should be super transparent when it comes to club activities. Their corporate side of course is another matter. I understand the desire to keep a certain level of secrecy to the amount and deals a player gets but if there is no way to have it audited and publicly affirmed without revealing the details, then I can see where eventually the fan base may lose trust.

I just don't agree with asking fans for money. Doesn't look good when we have signed Nico as our only top player. I'm not cynical I just don't think it's a good business model. I can have my opinion. I'm ok if others don't agree. I respect other opinions. I do agree with you though. Getting players one donation at a time won't cut it. I also don't think getting players on contracts helps. Thinking of player motivations. Like Texas A&M, all the bought players in the world and they can't win.
