Just wait until TEX tries to have horns down banned at SEC stadiums. I don't know what the old SWC was like, but if it was anything like the B12, this is going to be the first time TEX hasn't had a conference that wouldn't bend to their whining.

Tennessee increases ticket prices by 10% to help pay athletes​

In what is believed to be the first arrangement of its kind, Tennessee fans for all sports will be charged a 10% "talent fee" on tickets to help pay athletes as part of the new revenue-sharing plan set to begin in 2025.

The university shared the news with football season-ticket holders via email Tuesday, which included an impassioned four-minute video of athletic director Danny White telling fans the talent fee and other strategies were "part of an extensive plan to continue our dominance in college athletics and build something like never seen before."

In addition to the 10% increase on all ticket invoices -- season tickets and single-game purchases -- as well as donations for those seats, Tennessee will add an average increase of 4.5% on all football tickets.

"In this era of name, image and likeness (NIL), there has never been as close a connection between resources and competitive success," said White, noting that Tennessee had captured the last three SEC All-Sports trophies. "We want to be a leader in college sports. That means we want to be a leader in revenue sharing."
