I'm sure that is true and that they can trim a lot of fat. If you look at the financial statement for 2023-23, $62,658,428 of expense is allocated for non-specific sports programs. i.e., not related to any men's or women's program. I'm sure that is overall athletic department support and...

they still have to determine ways to generate revenue.. Anxious to see that develop. 2022-23 fiscal year saw UT athletics generate the largest revenue stream in their history, $202,097,305. Its a good thing the just agreed on payment structure was not in place because they would not have had...

They will also be a part of the budget that the State legislature has to approve each year.

expect the donations for ticket opportunities to increase dramatically as well as the cost of tickets to attend. Tennessee had an 11 million dollar surplus last fiscal year which means they had half of the required 22 million to pay athletes.

big schools will have to drop some sports in ordered to pay players. Adding expenses to AD budgets means cost has to drop or revenue needs to dramatically increase for the added expenses. Only 25 Athletic Departments made a profit on the last report I saw. And that is the normal number that are...

yep.... not too unusual to have several 5 stars in first round

Pat Ryan did that for 14 years. Nice easy money. Save the body and retire early.

and those who left college early for the draft

Still lot of movement happening. Still a lot of movement to be determined.

I agree and we all should highly regard both. True Vols.

Not saying they were going with Fulmer.. they might have went elsewhere. Lots of talk during early October on the coaching side and the player side about hitting the road post season. If no Majors move had been made, I'm smart enough to know that mid-season talk might or might not have...

yeah, he was not on scholarship.
