NIL and Tennessee

[james_govols]

Received an email from Spyre that they currently have fewer than 2,000 members.

We have a HUGE AND PASSIONATE fanbase. This number is embarrassingly low.

Spyre is currently pushing for 10,000 members.

This will help every UT sport. Tennessee finally has great leadership in place. We can make Tennessee s great place for elite recruits again.

Memberships start as low as $5 a month.

If you're already a member, great! Spread the word.

If you are on the fence, now's the time! Will from Spyre is here to answer any questions.

If you hate NIL and want nothing to do with it, that's fine. I'm not here forcing you to donate.

I'm only asking everyone, if they can, to support UT athletics.

Link for those interested:

I joined and suggest everyone who can afford it to do so.

I am a member also, just at $25 a month and think it is well worth it. Hope those that can and Vol supporters can donate the $5 a month. At the $25 a month there are lots of cool things they do and invites etc. Would really like for us all to get on board that can. Go Vols!

The minimum is $5. . . about 16 cents a day. . . $60/yr! That's something everyone can do.

I understand those who don't want to help, no matter the cost, but Spyre is making it as easy as possible for everyone to be able to help.

$.83/day, less than a cup of coffee, is what $25/mo comes to.

 

[Manning Up]

Just signed up. I want to help the Vols in every way possible.

 

[posivol]

can you post a link to sign up

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I have been signed up. And OP you are correct that low number is embarrassing. One would think this fan base is passionate. But are they really? I have a hard time believing that at least 100k TN fans could not afford $5 dollars a month.

But I bet many of them will hit Starbucks multiple times a week and get an overrated 5-7 dollar cup of coffee. If TN NIL game is to really get to the elite level we need it to, fans are gonna have to step up. Now we are seeing just how much this fan base really cares about this football team.

Are all players involved with the Volunteer Club?

 

[37620VOL]

Does Spyre help the Lady Vols programs too, specifically LV basketball?

 

[Grand Vol]

Why does this thread feel like an ASPCA commercial where we see pitiful looks from athletes?

"For just $25 a month, you can afford to support a young college athlete..."

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

I got that email too and was shocked at how few members there were.

I got a Jalin Hyatt autograph for singing up right after the Bama game. Pretty cool.

Not every player to my knowledge, bit all sports. Will can clarify.

 

[NighthawkVol]

Just joined. Thanks for the link. That makes it easy.

I might suggest those in this thread tweeting this link out on twitter, as well. I'll do the same.

Yes. The Lady Vols also have their own NIL specifically for them if you'd rather do that.

Rewatch the Bama game before calling out the fans.

Why not hit the state up for NIL money? They seem to value the titans more than they do the Vols.

Great idea.

Would be nice if White Danny would back down some of those rate hikes for the season ticket holders for their football, basketball and baseball seats, kind of hard to plow meaningful money into the NIL cooperative when the costs continue to roll upward on the current seating arrangement, under current rules, don't think the NCAA would look favorably on linking NIL contributions to university seating but White Danny needs to understand both monsters cannot be fed and fully funded by the same donor pool.

Yeah, Tennessee will have great players but nobody can afford to go see them…..

Big time moves being made here.

We need every single fan on this site signed up asap.

We all know Bama, UGA, and UFs fans are all getting on board at their schools. This is how fans DIRECTLY impact each season.

We could be the difference between 10-2 and 12-0
