Former Tennessee baseball coach and current San Francisco Giants manager Tony Vitello joined the Bussin’ with the Boys podcast this week to talk about his new role as manager of the Giants. At one point during their conversation, former Nebraska linebacker Will Compton asked Vitello about NIL in college baseball, and Vitello called it “a disaster.”
“It’s like you’re driving in the fog, and you can’t really see but about 100-200 feet in front of you, and you’re grasping for what’s real, what you can do, what you can’t do,” Vitello said.
Vitello went on to say that it can be frustrating not knowing the rules of the game, and that because of this, head-to-head competition is being lost.
“Overall, it’s very frustrating when you don’t know the rules to the game…But when you really don’t know what the rules of the game are, or they’re so lopsided in favor of Tennessee over Middle Tennessee State, it’s kind of hard to have that nose-to-nose competition,” Vitello said.

— Josh Ward (@Josh_Ward) November 4, 2025Vitello discussed boxing and the UFC, explaining that he was a fan of both because it’s 2 people, locked in one place, determined to find out who’s better. He believes that college baseball is losing that with NIL, as it’s harder to determine who is actually better on the diamond.
Fortunately for Vitello, he won’t have to worry about NIL-related issues anymore now that he’s off to the MLB.
