Tennessee set to add 10% 'talent fee' to tickets to fund plan for revenue sharing with players


Tennessee was one of the earliest and most aggressive adopters of NIL when the system was instituted in 2021. The NCAA previously attempted to investigate Tennessee for alleged NIL violations in February, but the Volunteers sued and ultimately earned a temporary injunction against the NCAA enforcing any NIL rules.

The revenue share is also dependent on finalization of the House v. NCAA lawsuit, which opens the door to direct athlete compensation from athletic departments. The projected settlement would allow athletic departments to compensate athletes directly up to approximately $22 million. However, the two sides have not yet finalized the agreement.

So it's not a sure thing yet.

Anyone who thinks schools don't already have a heavy hand in NIL regarding recruiting and transfers is lacking grey matter.

They're surely telling the collectives who to go after.
