With Chop being on the road recruiting, one has to think Ekeler is all but gone, correct?

What the hell is wrong with all of these people just wanting to jump on here just to start an argument or bitch about nothing that really matters. Me personally, I get on here to check up on new Vol updates and anything relative to Tennessee athletics. I have a wife!! I deal with enough!! But I swear I really think people get on here just to bitch and whine and complain for no reason whatsoever. I do not understand it to save my life. Maybe they're single. Or maybe they're just miserable individuals who want nothing more than to ruin someone's day no matter what. Believe it or not, there are people who live for this. And they won't be happy until they make you unhappy or pissed off. What a shame. And for all those people who do this crap,!!!!! And go straight to !!!

Not that new, been a member for a few years. But I'm a lot more focused on Volnation than I was in the past. But I've always been a fan of Big Orange Country and sports in general. Is it me or has people contracted bitchitis over the last several months? I don't remember the forum being this negative and bitchy before!!

Wanna see a fast electric car?

Wow. I decided to buy one after watching that video but found out I won’t fit in it. Bummer

Brothers and sisters, I am asking that you please take a little time out of your day to think of my daughter's good friend Ellie. She's been friends with her since they were 3 and they are 20 now. Ellie was recently diagnosed with Rhabdomyosarcoma and her PET scan revealed it is already at Stage 4 and has spread to her spine, arm and leg. This young lady has been to my home many times and my daughter has also been to hers. Her family are great people and this is devastating and heartbreaking for all of us. Anything positive you can send will be mightily appreciated. She is at St. Judes, so we know she will get the best care possible. Thank you.

Prayers sent. She is in good hands with St. Jude.

 

[MockingVol]

sadly...no

Bet, the ignore list depth grows.

The worst part is that a lot of these guys aren’t intentionally trolls. They are just kind of dumb and have difficulty seeing the shades of grey that exist in most everything.

I was hoping someone would "get it"

I heard it on the radio this morning, and it was in my head as well.....

I was watching Australian MasterChef last night. Good show.

Some guy made a meringue and everybody cheered.

I thought, that's kind of odd. Usually in Australia they boo meringue.

From the PF -

I don't see as likely to stand up to legal challenges. It prohibits athletes from negotiating based on their NIL.

Yeah I'm sure Trump will change that when he comes into office. Trump being the businessman he is, he understands the $ aspect.

Happens about once a month for a few posters

 

[Vol423]

That is very much a Raiders thing

If true, that's hilarious. It also shows the level of incompetence in their front office/ownership.

I'd buy one if I were the lead singer of Steel Dragon. . . i'd have it widened into a 2 seater. . . and put bat wings on it, like the batmobile

Some VN posters lack perspective and think the world comes to an end whenever the football team loses, particularly when it's ugly.

They aren’t trying to force NIL Payments, from a 3rd party, to the girls.

They are trying to force Revenue Sharing, from the Schools, to the girls.

Thought is was funny

 

[SpringBokVol]

The idea of rev sharing evenly with one sport that brings in 100 million and the other sport loses 2-5 million a year and gets bailed out by the 100 million a year sport is interesting to say the least

Something that only lawyers and bureaucrats could come up with.

The revenue sharing should be covered from the $ the big sport donates to the other sports so they can exist.

There is a specific provision in the guidance that states that it includes NIL as well. Like everything else the Biden administration is doing right as they get into their moving vans, this will be reversed.

Title IX was always going to be a problem if the money was coming straight from the schools to the players. Title IX is very much alive, and it's going to be extremely difficult to overturn as it was a congressionally passed law that's been enshrined for a long time. Schools and their attorneys are going to have find some clever way of getting these funds out of being recognized as financial assistance, but that may open up the other pandoras box of considering the athletes employees of the universities. It will be very interesting to see how this plays out.

Title IX does not govern the actions of third parties. That guidance is focused on NIL money from the schools, which may have been a workaround schools were trying to use to evade Title IX.
