Have to wonder now with a $330 million yearly increase on average if this may effect and expansion or contraction of conferences for basketball reason now.

Hopefully it won't incentivize more colleges with 400 fans in the stands to go D-1 to grab a welfare payment.

What is the value of a single NCAA credit going to be under that contract?

2 years ago, the value of a credit was about $250k x 6 years (the value adjusts annually).

with a 43% increase in the contract, that would suggest a single credit (you get one just for making the play in games), will be worth $358k, x 6 years, or $2.15 million.

And, IIRC, they stack up fast - you get 2 for a 1st round win, four for a second round win, eight for third, etc.

Feel free to correct me. I'm just going off of memory.

The issue with this is that it encourages the type of rampant cheating we are seeing more and more of. When two of the four FF participants were academic fraud perpetrators, but are winning millions and millions of $ from doing so, the rewards start outstripping the risks, unless the NCAA finally cracks down for real on the power conference cheaters.

or that...which may be more likely. However, since you need an invitation to move to D1 I think that'll limit it. Besides, other than the WAC, I think other conferences don't want split with more schools.

I believe it stays at one credit per game, no matter the round until the finals....which is no credit IIRC

Other than the WAC, Atlantic Sun, and possibly the Summit League, no one should be inviting schools from Division II.
