I agree that risk is there. Other schools have NIL too and if they want to get aggressive with a player it could happen. I am optimistic unwanted outgoings will be fairly minimal (fingers crossed).
As will be for any top 15 team. Lose some buy some. Evaluations will really count the utmost and Cignetti and staff are top notch. IUFB will definitely upgrade for 2025.
I think you’re missing the point…I don’t buy it that OSU, TX etc. paid about the same for their guys as Cig paid for these G5 players.
Sure, the price of poker has gone up. To improve talent levels. And, seems like NIL inflation has been massive in the last year!
All of a sudden so many other schools joining the party to bid for the mid-major talent, seeing they get left out if they don't. And power schools outbidding each other for the true blue chips also raises the boat for whoever is left. Expensive...
Hope we can play. It helps to win though. Kids still want to go where they believe they'll have good and stable coaches.

Kids are going to start getting part of the revenue starting in 2025... each school gets a little over 20 million (i think that's the number) to split how each school wants to.
Not done, roster limits just can’t exceed 105 players. A program could choose to carry 85 scholarship players and 20 walk-on’s or offer 105 full scholarships if they so choose.
$22mil I believe is the cap for the B10 with the SEC having a similar figure. Thats why being a P2 school is such a huge advantage going forward. Should be noted that schools aren’t obligated to allocate 100% of the cap but you’re at a recruiting disadvantage if you don’t. Will be interesting to see how it is distributed amongst all the different teams. Would bet IU needs to commit at least 75% to the football team.
Oh, I thought the rev share allocations by sport might be set by the settlement, NCAA, or conferences — sort of a formula to make sure the teams generating revenue get the rev share and prevent future legal issues. I guess it’s up to the schools.
As others have said, seems like 80% or so would go to FB. Pretty crazy how much FB roster payrolls are going to increase next year.
Bball heavy schools like UConn and Gonzaga will be interesting. They won’t hit the cap, and I’ll be curious what they manage to send to their bball programs.
They won’t be getting near $20 million.
