In Reply to: again, look at mh's speculation on where our NIL $ is going posted by barrya on March 29, 2025 at 18:46:42

If we factor in Revenue Sharing which has a cap of $20.5 Million per school for all sports beginning in the 2025-26 academic year and UCLA focuses a good portion of it to basketball, then it can reduce the NIL numbers. We can have up to 15 scholarship players next season so it could be like this according to my complete non-factual guesstimates (for entertainment purposes only).

*Revenue Share guesstimate per player: $300K

Dent $2.2 Million NIL + Rev Share
Mara $1.7 Million NIL + Rev Share
Clark $1.2 Million NIL + Rev Share
Perry $700K NIL + Rev Share
Bilodeau $700K NIL + Rev Share
Dailey $700K NIL + Rev Share
Freeney $200K NIL + Rev Share
Williams $200K NIL + Rev Share
Riley $200K NIL + Rev Share
Backup Center $200K NIL + Rev Share
Bench #1 $0 + Rev Share
Bench #2 $0 + Rev Share
Bench #3 $0 + Rev Share
Bench #4 $0 + Rev Share
Bench #5 $0 + Rev Share

Total Guestimate: $8 Million NIL + Rev Share $4.5 Million

*$300K per player Rev Share based on Illinois giving out an estimated $435K and Arkansas $267K per basketball player.

So if $10M is the budget max, that leaves $2 Million more in NIL to play with if we need to get more proven players. All guesses FYI.

Go Bruins!
