I do love their Patty Melt and shoestring fries

Love some Freddy’s. Just wish those dang kids put the fry sauce in my bag when they ask me if I want condiments and I tell them, yes, fry sauce.

What’s a realistic figure a fast food restaurant might offer for NIL advertising to a college athlete?

For a chain like Freddy’s, which is well-known but not in every state, I’m guessing around $100K per player. Dalton’s total NIL package is just shy of $800K.

I would figure Freddy’s is a franchise with a wide footprint covering many areas outside o Tennessee. Wouldn’t this type of advertising fall to the owner of the local restaurant(s)? If so, it seems like the amount they could afford to pay would be very limited?

Freddy's is just rebranded Steak & Shake.

There, I said it.

But still, good for our guys getting deals from them.

Pretty much, but it is better than S&S IMO.

I wasn't impressed with Freddys. The meat is paper thin. Hwy 55 (Fort Payne) and In & Out are the top burger joints IMO. BUT, kudos for UT NIL's!!

I would love to see a Steak & Shake franchise here in Knoxville.

There is at least one in North Knox on Emory Rd by the interstate. Been there for probably 25 years.

I gave her the benefit of doubt since it was like 5 seconds between me telling her and her giving me my food.
