Maybe this is the NCAA’s way of doing Tennessee a favor.
UT officials have decried the NCAA’s latest investigation into the Tennessee Vols, but if you think about it, the Vols can use this to their advantage.
Tennessee’s response to this investigation can be loosely summarized as: Rules? What rules? Let’s make some deals.
Sounds like a start to a recruiting pitch: Come to Tennessee, where the NCAA’s flimsy rules don’t matter, and the state government and university officials have your back.
On today's episode, hosts Blake Toppmeyer, Adam Sparks and John Adams offer the latest on Tennessee vs. NCAA after Tuesday’s court hearing that occurred as part of a state lawsuit against the NCAA.
The upshot: Tennessee enjoys the high ground and shouldn't be worried.
Also in this episode, an explanation of why UT is limiting attendance of its spring game to just 10,000 fans. Are college sports becoming a luxury for the rich?
