Huh? Say it ain’t so

Let me just save you the trouble since you seem incapable of comprehending what I laid out and explained which was correct btw but the plane was owned by a booster. Nico used it through the vol club who owned his rights and he had signed a deal and who at the time hadn't been deemed a booster and wasn't officially of affiliated with the university so guess what that means in court. No rules broken. Not at that time. Since they've been declared a booster and it would be a benefit that's illegal. This is the equivalent of the state having the speed limit at 70 and changing it a week later to 55 and wanting to give you a speeding ticket for driving 70 2 months ago. Also there's the whole Sherman act the NCAA is violating. That law states a group of individuals or entities cannot collude to keep individuals for maximizing their potential earnings. The NCAA saying collectives can't talk money with athletes and let them know their fair market value is keeping them from earning all they can. They are dead ducks and that's why they wrote that release yesterday saying further legal process will impeded their rule enforcing ability. Surely you see how this is gonna play out. And yes the bama collective has given numbers out to athletes before they signed with the university or they wouldn't sign with them which is against the rules. Every collective does it. It's asinine and not realistic to think that's not what is going on everywhere

You saved me from reading the novel you just typed. D@mn…be more concise. I don't need to read a bunch of fluffed up similes trying to justify Tennessee's cheating culture.

So with your advanced degree in contract law, you are saying a booster could not lease his private jet to a private group at market value- if a booster was even the source?

Are you giving the NCAA your legal expertise pro bono, or are you making bank like the other lawyers?

It's been years since we've had competent leadership on the hill. As a Vol fan it's super refreshing to know we finally have leaders with a brain steering the ship again.

This isn't a cut and dried issue like you want it to be. You want rules broke. Tennessee bad. That's not how it works in this. I am just trying to explain the deal and why you aren't seeing it for what it is. If you're too lazy to read and understand and give an informed opinion I'd sit this one out
 
Don't look now but the NCAA just flexed back https://www.wsmv.com/2024/01/31/ncaa-releases-statement-after-vast-response-tennessee-investigation/
"While the NCAA generally does not comment on specific infractions cases, it is important to remember that NCAA member schools and conferences not only make the rules but routinely call for greater enforcement of those rules and holding violators accountable. In recent years, this has been especially true as it relates to establishing and enforcing a consistent set of national rules intended to manage the name, image and likeness environment. This legal action would exacerbate what our members themselves have frequently described as a "wild west" atmosphere, further tilting competitive imbalance among schools in neighboring states, and diminishing protections for student-athletes from potential exploitation. The NCAA remains firmly committed to protecting and expanding student-athletes' NIL rights and opportunities. However, our membership has steadfastly supported the prohibition on impermissible recruiting contacts, booster involvement in recruiting prospects and the use of NIL offers as recruiting inducements."

I just wanted to say it's absolutely hilarious to see Bandwagon Nation in their glass house throwing rocks as if alabama never cheated to get recruits.

What is funny is the vols apparently are so dumb they cannot cheat and get away with it. Even though "cheating" is a "culture" at tn according to the NCAA. One would think they would be better at it. LMAO

I have. What is your point with it exactly? Spyre works and represents athlete's and negotiates deals with the vol club (the collective). None of this is a secret. On paper they can represent any athlete to any school. That's what is legally down. In reality they send them to UT. Not they're funny the athletes chose the vol club and UT 🤷🏻‍♂️. That's who their connection is to. Remember in court it's not what you know and think. It's what you can legally prove. This is a release from spyre's lawyer regarding Nico and his contract and recruitment
