No, it’s not. Hilarious that you people think this somehow evens a proverbial playing field now that the Texas and OSUs of the world are allowed to write blank checks to whoever they want - including players on your current roster.

UT hasn’t finished with a recruiting class ranked higher than 10th since NIL became a thing, and you think deregulating it helps you?

The vast majority of college football programs are now holding the short stack of chips at the poker table, including Tennessee.

This huge win for Tennessee, that isn’t actually a win yet, won’t end up being a win for them.

This ignorance is why Bama doesn’t want this to happen. You think they Tennessee doesn’t have the funds to be in bidding wars? We just took a 5* QB UGA put a multimillion dollar NIL deal on the table for. All this program needed is a reason for the fans to support it after 15 years of inconsistent and disappointing results.

Across the board the Vols are on the cusp of dominating sports. BaseVols are a consistent power, BasketVols have been moving the needle in the tournament, football is finally in good hands. Facilities across the spectrum are getting money dumped in them, the staffs are among the best in the business, and the fans are supporting the programs.

You are fooling yourself if you don’t believe the Tennessee boosters and fans don’t have the economic power to compete, they just need the green light to do so aboveboard.

Delusions should be a flagship sport at Bama with Saban gone

If they do, why the frick have their recruiting classes averaged ranked 6th in the conference since NIL became a thing?

You’ve not once finished ahead of Bama, UGA, Texas, OSU, or any of the other heavy hitters.

But you want me to believe you guys are all of a sudden gonna figure it out?

Does your coaching staff suck that bad, or are your boosters that inept? Which is it?

Are you arrogant, or just fricking stupid?

Tennessee has 5 billionaire boosters and several worth hundreds of millions. Alabama MIGHT have 1 or 2.

You can't outbid us, chump.

5-star quarterback Nico Iamaleava puts Tennessee in his final five schools. Tennessee football made the latest cut in hopes of landing five-star quarterback Nico Iamaleava. On Wednesday, Iamaleava named UT, Georgia, Oregon, Alabama and Miami as his final five schools in a graphic posted on Twitter.Mar 16, 2022


Do you recogbize any names on that list? Who got him?

"Tennessee is flying players around on private jets and stuff..."

Bring your Walmart t-shirt money, boy. We'll see you at the poker table.

"Tennessee will be short stacked."

I thought you were just butthurt, but you're a fricking arrogant moron.

I’ll ask you the same question, brand new internet user Carefree Highway, who definitely isn’t a shitty alter:

Why the frick have your recruiting classes averaged ranked 6th in the conference since NIL became a thing?

Ok, arrogant fricking moron user.

NIL is just getting started. Schools have tip-toed around unsure of the rules. That ended yesterday.

UGA's Jere Morehead tried to use his NCAA position to frick us.

All Bama's dirty bullshite of buying teams can be done by everyone. UT has the money base. You inbreeds have fun trying to keep up.

By the way, when you scream "alter", no one gives a frick. Go suck Chicken's dick, you pathetic fricking Bammer.

We won. Deal with it. Crying little bitch on a two-day melt.

You haven’t won shite since Bill Clinton was in office, and you’ve not finished better than 4th place in the conference in recruiting since

despite handing out literal bags of cash.

You people have the collective IQ of Stacey Abrams’ tooth gap.

You're not as stupid as you sound. You're whistling past the graveyard. You know what is coming. Nick is gone, and everyone can buy teams now.

You KNOW what is coming.

We do. Tennessee will continue to win preseason championships and… that’t it. Just like this thread.

Pretend that Bammer never had it's dirty run?

Watching you go 6-6, maybe 7-5 will malke that easy.

Maybe you should pop a couple Xanax and go sit on the patio for a bit.

You're going to have a stroke over UT winning in court.

We’ve had lots of dirty runs.

When we go on a dirty run, we print championships.

When UT goes on a dirty run, they book their hotel for Nashville or Tampa.

A few things to be fair.

While Tennessee has only cracked the top ten in recruiting while the NIL has been in play, we did it with a 7-win season coming off 15 years in the desert.

Also, Tennessee has money. We have a lot of money. Our only problem in competing and winning, is that we like moonshine better most days, than sneaking around NCAA and ESPN all the time.

Pruitt's bags of cash was 60k, and 20k of it went to a kids mom who couldn't pay her rent. Plus Pruitt is an idiot, aight?

But now that we can come out in the open and write checks, the Vols are going to take another step forward in the recruiting rankings.

You have made many good points, but you still have a blind spot. Your program has been one of the protected ones since Saban arrived there, but that is over.
The other thing that you are missing is the fact that Tennessee finally got its act together and have competent people at every level.
Regarding recruiting rankings, do you understand how those rankings are made? since you are supposed to be a genius I hope you understand the level of subjectivity involved in it.
