This happened in 1996-9 so it may all may be different now.In 1996 i wanted to put "Vols" on fishing lures. To do this I had to work with the Collegiate Licensing company in Atlanta. After days answering questions; they mailed me info on the Tn. vols including OK colors to make a sample of a "Vol" lure for the Licensing Co. to send to U T for their approval. Then to Pradco to make a deal on making the "Vol" lures using the small Cordell "Big O" but first a sample which had to please me first. I mailed the packet with the colors which I quickly glanced at and saw the orange and white but no brown which was never a Vols color but it was in there. Told the man "just mix the colors 2-3 ways for me to pick one" yes I knew they were $60 each. Now I have a solid white, solid brown and a brown back on White all with "vols" left after I picked a nice orange and white for the "Vols" lure. Anyone want one of the other three, only $60 each.
