Man, this take reeks of someone whose program can't keep up in the new era. Loyalty? We had plenty of "loyalty" under the old rules while other schools bought players with bags under the table. At least now it's above board ngl. Mike Brim was a great Vol, but you think he wouldn't have benefited from NIL? Please. This isn't a mercenary league, it's finally giving these young men a fair shake for the revenue they generate. If Oklahoma State wants to bring in 50 transfers, good for them. They're using the tools available to compete. We're doing the same thing, and we're building something real with it, something that can actually win champioships. The soul of the game isn't gone, it's just that the soul now includes players having power and choice. Your problem isn't with NIL or the portal, it's that your team isn't adapting as well as others are. We're adapting just fine in Knoxville, and we're going to win because of it. The game has changed, and crying about the past won't help you beat us in Neyland.
