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)

How does this square with SEC schools that have fewer sports than Big 10 schools? Seems they will have more money to give to football.

You don't retain a top QB for 160,000k nor a top anything.

That’s the minimum all players will get if the money is split evenly across the entire team. Individual players would then be free to augment that number.

is the 82% for football a PSU choice (i.e. each school chooses)? Hopefully, the other sports do not become a block on this by trying to create "everyone gets the same piece". There must be a method to dodge Title IX challenges.

Payouts would probably look just like an NFL team where the top players garner the majority of the funds.

glad to see that incremental money to players would have to be real NIL and not pay to play. A player that gets a $2M deal with Dr Pepper deserves that on top. A group of boosters that pull together $5m to pay a QB to attend the schools is not NIL. By that definition how many players are going to be worthy of 7 digit NIL deals????? My guess not many.

My research leads me to believe compensation will be "performance based," and influenced by the "value" of their position (NFL model).
There are always going to be people who will try to sanewash this development.
