Big East wins big in NCAA tournament revenue distribution

[mcs333]

Each unit this year is worth $258,500 A team earns a unit for each game they play in. Each team can earn a max. of 5 units. Payout is paid over the next 6 years.

BE 23 units 5.95M , 35.7M over 6 years

ACC 11 units, 2.84M, 17.1M

Big Ten 17 units 4.39M, 26.4M

Big12 14 units 3.62M, 21.7M

SEC 12 units, 3.1M, 18.6M

PAC12 2 units, .5M, 3.1M

Last year the BE earned 22 units and in 2009 the BE earned 24 units (a record) No other conference has earned twenty units in a single tournament. What a disaster year for the PAC 12.

Can't the BE earn one more unit? Ville has won 4. Then can get 5 on Saturday.

Easy money for DePaul and Providence.

No , in my calculations Ville has earned 5 units since they are playing in their fifth game this weekend. Win or lose the four teams in the finals have reached the max. of 5 units each.
