The Tennessee Volunteers are asking for money to buy new goalposts.
On Saturday, Tennessee Fans tore down the goalposts at Neyland Stadium after beating Alabama and ended up tossing them into the Tennessee River.

Apparently, those goalposts are super expensive and the Volunteers have started a fundraiser asking for help to buy new goalposts.
Y'all remember how we tore the goalposts down, hauled em out of Neyland and dumped em in the Tennessee River?
Yeah that was awesome.
Anywho, turns out that in order to play next week's game, we need goalposts on our field. Could y'all help us out? 🙏 https://t.co/NSMoL3SzPX

Fans didn’t think it was a good look for the school to ask fans for more money considering how much money the Vols likely made on Saturday.

Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Not only is it ridiculous that a university with a billion dollar endowment is crowdfunding.
But if 6% of the project is funded with $10k…
Then @Vol_Football is saying they need $172,000 for new goalposts. https://t.co/COJTI82CFf pic.twitter.com/suFRQ9xfSO

Via @Sportico's handy-dandy athletic department financial database, @Vol_Sports spent $132 million on athletics last year. So, maybe there's a better kickstarter for you to donate to today…https://t.co/eTdYBT9qET https://t.co/HKMnDmxz9g pic.twitter.com/3bwmbivxDI
