I'm confused about your statement, isn't the bid the "NCAA cut"?Hawks86 wrote: ↑Fri May 10, 2019 2:12 pmIt's hard to find any exact numbers that the NCAA uses, but I found an article about Nicholls State and their playoff expenses. The numbers from their 2017 playoff game would be close to ours from last year. After a $50,000 bid ,with 9,612 in attendance, and the NCAA cut, they made between $10-$15,000.

That's part of it. Can't find an exact percentage, but the NCAA takes a large "cut" after the home schools expenses.technoCat wrote: ↑Thu May 16, 2019 9:03 amI'm confused about your statement, isn't the bid the "NCAA cut"?Hawks86 wrote: ↑Fri May 10, 2019 2:12 pmIt's hard to find any exact numbers that the NCAA uses, but I found an article about Nicholls State and their playoff expenses.

However, this is only the minimum payment required regardless of revenue generated. If the winning school makes more money, the NCAA takes a larger cut minus the school’s expenses. In turn, the school receives a larger honorarium with whatever is left over.
