What happens to NCAA revenues if they crumble?


Aug 15, 2021, 10:18 AM

The NCAA averages $1 billion annually in revenues. They lost hundreds of millions in 2020 with no March madness so 20 was an off year.

Let’s say the NCAA ceases to exist. Where does the money go? Is this another driver for a smaller 64 team top division so those schools can get bigger pieces of that pie?

I think the idea with super conferences is that the NCAA will continue to exist and govern all non football sports. So they don't disappear completely but yes their yearly revenue numbers will dramatically decrease without football.

Pass it out in bonuses to the big wheels for doing such a good job that they are no longer needed

One more time class. Football is only part of the NCAA. The NCAA regulates over 1200 schools and puts on about 90 championships. The NCAA will continue to exist even if the SEC drops out which they will most certainly not do. The biggest part of NCAA income comes from basketball.

I get it valley. But I’m still not clear on their purpose if all athletes can do the the things the ncaa has been keeping an eye on.

A female crew (rower) can sign with the local Cadillac dealer, the backup shortstop can doorstops at the hardware store in his hometown.

If It’s all about money, and it is, why not just leave the ncaa in total and let the new conference or sports entity take in all the millions?

Because you are looking at this from the narrow, but very important, view of enforcement and schools will not leave the NCAA because of money. Any organization, large or small, has to have leadership and has to have a set of guidelines to operate on. If there were no NCAA, who makes the rules? You are interested in D1 football so would each conference play by the same rules if the NCAA were not there. The NCAA exists for so many reasons and if it were not in business, thousands of D2 and D3 athletes would lose their dream of winning a championship.

It sounds like your concern is around the NIL and because the scope of the NCAA is so huge, my contention is NIL is of very little consequence. If you take the 1200 schools the NCAA is responsible for and say the average number of athletes at those schools averages 300 then that means there are 360,000 athletes. If you pull up the athletic website of a few schools of different sizes, you will see that the 300 number is very low. The point is that yes, a few athletes will make some big money on NIL but of the whole NCAA, the % of athletes that will earn a dime is very small.
