Texas Tech has rolled out their revenue sharing plan; expect LSU and others to do similar

I’m sure there will be a lot of really thoughtful opinions about the disparity across sports.

Disparity between MBB and WBB will piss off some people for sure.

I wonder if every scholarship athlete will make the same amount. If so, being the last man on an 85 man scholarship roster making a $175k salary isn’t a bad gig

get ready for women to start bitching

I want to see what other spending gets cut to fund this.

According to their Finance report, Texas Tech athletics turned a $10 mil profit last year

Revenue Sharing adds $20mil to the expense column.

that puts them in a $10 mil hole unless they cut spending/add revenue somewhere to close that gap.

Your school and AD's priorities will be very transparent.

Well, seeing as scholarship money was required to be even, it will be interesting to see how this gets forced in court. If the spirit of the law is equal support, the money should be split evenly between male and female sports.

If that law is no longer being honored, then it should be removed in regards to athletic scholarships.

Further, will all athletes be getting the same stipend or will it vary from player to player?

This is just going to make this an even bigger disaster.

Need to just end college athletics and let pro leagues pay for this. No point in calling it collegiate anymore.

Baseball isn't getting 34%

TT has 2 young BILLIONAIRES (early 40's) that are bankrolling and helping support Athletics. They have the money and want their alma mater to compete for Championships and have first class facilities to draw athletes. Several years ago, Cody Cambell wrote a $25,000,000 check to improve the football facilities. TT recently hired ULL softball coach Gerry Glascow by tripling his salary and giving him lots of money to pay his players. IIRC, 6 ULL players followed GG to TT and they each received a major increase in NIL $$$.
