Guys guys, guys… there are no profits in college sports, revenue sports, value in media rights, or players NIL value, without the foundation of extremely generous DONORS who subsidize this so called "big business of college sports".
This is all quicksand and fools gold.
The last numbers that I saw from the TMF, their annual payment (which includes ticket revenues) to the athletic department was nearly 70% from donations, and the TMF payment is significantly larger than any payment from the SEC office. Where I come from this is called a charity, not a business. These generous donors need to bring these judges, lawyers, NCAA, conferences, TV executives, and players to their knees! The sooner, the better, then we can get back to the way college sports were intended to be!!!
