Coaches are saying you need 10 million to make it to the sweet 16. Usu almost made to the sweet 16 with a 2 million roster. But at last Arizona is too good.
Iowa was a 9 seed but the average NIL money in the big 10 was 8.5 million. They spend a lot of money to build these teams.
Is it ruining the tournament.
Yes for the mid major programs.
Not for most fans though. Tournaments has been fun! Tons of close games to watch. I love this tournament. Let’s keep it going. NIL will change in the coming years. I wonder what it will look like in the coming years.
