Under Armour game is boring. One side is good, and the other side is not.

Looks like they left the MCB refs in Nashville to officiate the Titans/Dolphins game.

If they are going to make the game this soft then they should at least make a league name change and replace “Football” with “Powder Puff” to align the sport with what it has become.

Refs missed the blind side block, but it’s a great make up call considering they blew the fumble 2 plays earlier. Also a complete mess up of a call for a PI earlier in the game on 3rd down where Titans receiver pushed off and fell and Miami gets flagged for it. Titans went on to score that drive and shouldn’t have even had the chance.

They know that all the fanbases are tuning in to see their favorite recruits, so they're just saying great things about them because that's what the audience wants to hear.

If their career were riding on these statements they wouldn't sign off on the declarations.

Just looked at the rosters for this UA game. We don't have a single player on either side.

ESPN has taken their hatred of us to a whole new level.

I feel like I've seen the numbers recently, and Tennessee from a revenue and donations perspective has still been top ten most years even with our 15 years of sucking.

Yes, but we're talking about raising more funds outside of the university. It's not about the money within the AD its about money from private individuals directed to players in the form of NIL deals. That's where we are lacking.

If you have an company/individual that is interested in a legit NIL deal that is insistent on a legitimate ROI you have to look at what it entails. These elite of the elite players like Alabama and GA are getting in numbers are getting 7 figure deals. So if I'm dishing out a mil that means I realistically need to increase sales $10-$20 mil. To get to that you have to look at most companies average about 10% of revenue on advertising. 1/2 of that will be spent on the medium of advertising (TV, radio, etc.). Now if you're replacing advertising $ with other advertising $ that diminishes that some but I don't see many people outside of UT football getting that kind of endorsement dollars.

Those same conditions apply at Tuscaloosa or Athens so what that means the deals at Alabama and GA are just pay for play masquerade as NIL deals. We don't seem to have those type of deals at our disposal.

There's a reason there's a salary cap in the NFL. Without it the major market teams (LA, NY, Chicago) wod dominate every year.
