Tennessee NIL Infractions?

Hundreds of violations occurred in Tennessee football program over 3 seasons - NCAA.org
The 18 level one infractions were from their previous investigation.
There are no details for this new investigation.

 

I hope Tennessee gets some huge penalties, but to be honest, who understands what the NIL rules really are. Supposedly tNIL can't be used as inducements to recruits but that is what everyone is doing. It's a big ole cluster.

 

$60k of impermissible inducements…sounds so minor with the dollar amounts of NIL deals today.

 

I suspect they’ll get a slap on the wrist, lose a few scholarships at most.

 

Whatever it is it will be less than we would get.

 

For us Gators living here, this is always fun.

 

Just shows how dumb the Vols are. Just buy houses for your recruits parents, like Bama does.

 

NCAA doing what it does best - selectively looking into southern schools and turning a blind eye to the actions of their ‘blue blood’ favorites

 

This NIL nonsense has been nothing but a big ruse. Money for nothing and the chicks for free.

Tennessee Chancellor Donde Plowman responds to NCAA

 

Appears as if trying to establish control of the narrative. "Repeat offender" and "lack of institutional control" are UcheaT's biggest worries. Maybe that fake nonsense "investigation" to avoid paying Pruitt's buyout will be a lot more expensive in the end.

 

That's an outstanding letter. Wonder why Ole Matt Baker didn't make a FOIA request to Sasse? Is our guy responding similarly or at all? I love that part where she implicitly indicated that lawyers would be involved if this goes forward. I hope she copied Mr. Greg Sankey. As much as I would love the see UT get skull-drug by the NCAA similar to what happened at UF in 1984, its time that the SEC threw its weight around a bit and told the NCAA to stop targeting its programs or there would soon be a SCAA for them to contend with and I doubt it would take much convincing for other major conferences to tag along too.

 

That's for the waterboy.

 

adam sandler gets money from tennessee,who knew.

 

If you're going to cheat so badly as to get caught shouldn't you actually win something?

 

I hope we stand up to the NCAA. There were no rules, no guidance from the NCAA about how to handle NIL. And it is comically absurd to think that the collectives arrange deals with players without involvement of coaches and others at the schools. How else would they know who to target, who to pay?

 

Florida Gators football under NCAA Investigation

"We have been and will continue to cooperate with the NCAA," Florida spokesman Steve McClain said.

Looks like we are going to roll over instead of telling them to pound sand.
