Tennessee Vols athletic director Danny White sent a loud message to UT fans on Thursday.
Thanks to new guidance from the NCAA, programs can now officially endorse NIL (name, image, and likeness) collectives.
So on Thursday, White took to social media to officially endorse The Lady Vol Boost Her Club and Spyre Sports.
This is Tennessee essentially asking fans to direct donations to those collectives to help support student-athletes (within the guidelines).
White also made sure to point out that he feels like the Vols fan base is the best in the country. And he believes Knoxville is the best city in college sports.
This is a game-changer for Tennessee. It's going to help in recruiting (even though NIL deals still can't be used to sway recruits) and with landing players from the transfer portal (as well as keeping players from the portal).
It's been a memorable season for the Volunteers, but they're truly just getting started.
