Estimated NCAA Revenue Sharing (2025-2026) 

Starting in 2025, colleges can choose to share revenue with different athletic departments (i.e. pay the athletes directly). This chart shows the estimated revenue teams and athletes may receive. Football and men's basketball are the major revenue generators for colleges, so they will receive the lion's share. Baseball will receive a very small portion. The increased earning potential at the collegiate level is another reason why many young black men choose those two sports over baseball.
