@AD_DannyWhite

I’ve had many inquiries, and I want those in the college athletics community to hear directly from me.

do teams just get forfeits if Tenn on schedule

100% of major programs have violations - deflect and blame
100% did not pay their fr qb recruit $8 million dollars before he proves himself on college level

Good for him. I wish we would have had an AD tell the NCAA to get bent a few years ago.

Nothing like a double down when your first statement projects that the NCAA is breaking a rule.

watched some sports show yesterday and they said that the NCAA have over a dozen programs they are snooping around on and trying to find something to dig up regarding NIL/recruiting.

I hope the TN/Virginia lawsuits gains steam and more programs/AG's join the lawsuit or file their own.

The NCAA has to end, imo

I’m sure he had similar statements when info was being leaked left and right during Ole Miss’s case, right?

I like making Tennessee and a few select others examples. UT and Florida way over offered for mid quarterbacks. Their desperation can’t effectively become market making in the new ecosystem. Mid programs can’t crash the market with unsustainable contracts to achieve temporary success. So they have to get the lash so everybody else can offer reasonable salaries. Their hubris is the violation.

lol, you look at this situation and you think it's the NCAA that has to end instead of teams purchasing players so that the team with the biggest/wealthiest booster base will always have the best players should end. That's what you think college football should be?

I got news for you, this nil thing is going to come crashing down hard as soon as the females start suing because they are not getting millions in nil money. I bet the courts won't pretend like it's not the schools controlling this money then

As far as I know, one of the only rules in any of this is that NIL is not supposed to be used for recruiting, and yet literally every single program in America seems to be doing just that (and somewhat openly talking about it).

It's like a speed trap where every car is flying by doing 70 in a 35, and they're just sitting there trying to decide who they want to pop.

Short-sighted. This whole NIL paradigm is still brand new. The "market" will quit ponying up this kind of money with no commensurate return eventually (and probably quickly). These early contracts will be the stuff of lore once the dust settles.

Usually AD’s pretend to have utmost respect for NCAA. They cower and promise to accept punishment.

Danny White, decided to try the opposite tactic.

Only way to handle a bully is to bully the fricker. That said its a helluva gamble given UT just settled another violation.

This is the problem with whats going on. The NCAA is obviously using UT as a scapegoat. Big, high profile program who has struggle of late so destroying them doesn't cause a lot of backlash, or so they think. On the other hand EVERY program and EVERY university President and EVERY AD, including UT, has publicly expressed their desire that SOMEONE regulate CFB in some manner. The only entity who has ever attempted to do so is the NCAA...and membership in the NCAA is strictly "voluntary"...its really not but strictly speaking it is. Despite clamoring for some guardrails being in place and enforced as soon as the only entity in a position to place some guardrails and enforce them everybody whines like a mashed kitty. It is a high stakes chess game...if, for some convoluted reason the courts side with the NCAA (hard to see it but who knows) UT is in a helluva predicament.

Honestly I do wonder if the market will self-correct at some point.

The excitement of someone dropping a bag of cash to help his team win has to be a huge thrill, but once that wears off are they willing to do that ad nauseum?

Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, even millions — year, after year, after year.
