The House vs. NCAA settlement was $2.8 billion with each D-1 schools share at $20.5 million increasing over ten years to $33 million. The schools will determine the amount that will go to each sport. Informal polls have 75% going to football, 15% to men's BB, and the scraps going to the remaining sports. Revenue sharing is set to commence July 1, 2025.
PSU reported in 2023 that of the total athletic revenue of about $220 million, football produced about $113.4 million, and football revenue exceeded costs by about $50 million.
The Daily Collegian reported in November PSU plans to use up to 82%of the revenue sharing for football. If my math is correct up to 82% of $20.5 million divided by 105 players would yield a tidy sum of $160,000 per player. Then tack on the NIL money for the likes of big time players like Allar and Singleton.
But don't worry the NCAA has promised starting this summer to "enforce stricter oversight on NIL deals, banning pay for play promises and requiring contracts to be reviewed for fair market value. A third party clearinghouse will monitor the large NIL deals to prevent blatant inducements for recruiting and retention. (Insert laugh, cheer, or sneer GIF here depending on your perspective)
