IL, NIL is a game changer. I think it affects decisions because the Tennessee brand is so strong and visible and that is without a national title in 14 years. Imagine what will happen after the first Final Four, first natty.

Other coaches are sweating it out. No one (except Tennessee and its fans) wants Tennessee back because the Lady Vols are a juggernaut in branding and marketing.

That’s great to hear about Edwards family!

[Mike Robinson]

Not sure if it’s worse, but more aggressive as programs know that Tennessee is on the cusp of being dominant again, which will lead to more NIL opportunities for players if they choose the Lady Vols.

I know there was some negative recruiting going on against TN any word on if that is still happening?

And who is doing it? Is it worse than what Geno used to say?

How does the rest of the SEC look to be shaping up in comparison. Could we have the best class in the league

The negative recruiting against Tennessee is brutal and it comes from all corners. There is a legit fear that Tennessee will be really, really, really good again.

Pat dealt with it, Holly dealt with it and now Kellie is.

It can come from other coaches, handlers, people who have a vested interest in where a player goes.

If they get Del Rosario, Booker and Nichols! That’s a TOP-TIER class. And if they land Del Rosario who is by far the best center in the class, it would be hard for ANYONE in the SEC to beat that class!

At least Tennessee can buy a recruit a car now if they want to…

What about the rumors of Cambridge not being a tenn fan? I heard her only visit was with her league team?

[Maria M. Cornelius]

Jackson, I will have a better idea of that when it all shakes out by signing week in November.

LSU got Mikaylah Williams, the No. 1 player, so that is big for the Tigers but so far, not a lot have popped for the SEC. Right now North Carolina in the ACC is doing really well.

Of course, those HS rankings don’t matter at the next level.

[Mike Robinson]

If you are a Tennessee fan, you should feel good about this weekend. Now will it be made public immediately, I don’t know.

They can’t buy a car, but NIL can help them put a kid in position to get a car 😊

What’s the status with Olivia Olson?

[Mike Robinson]

I have heard similar; I don’t think Cambridge will end up at Tennessee based on what I’m hearing now.
