NIL at Tennessee Volunteers

Tennessee runs one of the most aggressive NIL operations in the SEC. Spyre Sports Group, the collective that grew up around the program, was among the first in the country to organize football compensation at scale, and the athletic department was also early to fold athlete pay into its regular finances, adding a talent fee to football tickets to help cover revenue sharing under the 2025 House settlement. That settlement lets Tennessee pay athletes directly, about 20.5 million dollars across sports in year one with annual increases, most of it flowing to football. Between institutional money, an enormous fanbase, and an established collective, the Volunteers consistently rank among the biggest spenders in college football.

How NIL value is calculated

An NIL value is an estimate of what an athlete could earn from name, image and likeness over 12 months, not a salary or a confirmed deal. We weigh audience (social reach and engagement), performance and role, school and market, and the sport and position. Where a public figure exists, we sense-check against it; this valuation is anchored to On3 NIL Valuations (2026). See how NIL valuations work.
