Penix looked soft

More skiddish than soft. He knew his OL couldn't protect him. He was more focused on defenders coming at him than his reads downfield. And in the few instances where he had the time to wait on receivers to get deep/open, he was possessed by the spirit of Joe Milton. Overthrows everywhere. Gonna beat that need for OL dead horse once again. If we can't protect the QB, nothing else really matters.

Cant imagine anyone will give him the resources, money, and no job will be as posh - meaning as easy AtoZ as Georgia.

Dude literally started the race a lap ahead. What does he earn by going to Pros? Nothing. UGA will wipe his arse with gold leafed paper if he asks.

This is a money play.

Agree.

Kirby coaches in a state that has one of the top 3 richest recruiting grounds in Nation.

Big-time money ploy,he must have got wind of the 10 year 120+ million dollar contract Michigan has put on the table for Harbaugh..

CFB us watered down. Unless its a top tier matchup, its frankly really a waste of time. I may turn an FCS game, MACtion, or Louisville-Miami on for 5 minutes. Second first commercial hits, ready for anything else.

NFL doesnt seem to have that issue, although personally its just as boring.

That game, which I was looking forward too, was the most uninspired, knot-on-a-log game, slogging pillow fight ive seen in years.

Absolutely zero interest. Actually fell asleep with it on.

Sooo...that's a whole lot of major disappointment coming your way Ricky Bobby.

I want to win a championship too...but you gotta build a solid program first...you guys just want it now now now.

If being like UGA and Bama is the only thing that will satisfy you...you might as well check out now and save yourself a lot of pain and anger. You know in your heart that it is true whether you want it to be or not.

You also have to take into account the blatant on field manipulation by the officials in favor of a very few chosen golden calves...is that ever going to end?...I hope so, but there is way too much money involved for the puppet masters to just leave results to high ideals like competitive integrity and blind chance. I don't know how you get that to end when it comes to us.

I think in a few years that nobody is going to be dominant like that anymore...NIL is changing things and there is just too much chaos.

If I had a bunch of liquid funds to throw at the NIL, I would want to have a say in where the money goes. But I would have a hard time giving money to players like mincey. He was worth the investment in 2022, but was not worth any NIL money in 23, jmo.
I am a donating member of the Vol Club.

I would want to do it more like @InVOLuntary suggested and hire the player for advertising purposes. At least then you can choose your players and make it a business expense.

If I were a Tennessee business owner, that’s how I would handle it.

Spyre needs to hit up Knoxville Orthopedic Clinic (KOC) for NIL dollars since they are the official orthopedic group for the Vols. They could easily make that part of their marketing budget…

Heck, any company that is the official anything with UT.

Just my two cents.

Sounds like we're all saying same thing.
