About Ohio NIL Spending in 2026 Ohio ranks #98 nationally in estimated NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) spending for the 2025–26 athletic year, with a combined budget of $9.5M across all sports. As a G5 program in the MAC, Ohiocompetes with the nation's top revenue-sharing and collective-funded programs to attract and retain top recruits, transfer-portal talent, and returning starters. The Sideline's NIL Tracker compiles Ohio's reported NIL figures from publicly disclosed contracts, collective funding announcements, athletic department reporting, and cross-referenced industry sources. Numbers reflect estimates of Ohio's 2026 NIL budget allocations including football, men's basketball, women's basketball, baseball, softball, and Olympic sports where applicable. Football represents the largest single-sport allocation at $6.5M. NIL spending at Ohio continues to evolve following the House v. NCAA settlement, which permits direct revenue sharing with student-athletes starting in the 2025–26 academic year. Ohio's figures include both the school's revenue-share allocation and third-party collective deals from boosters and alumni networks.

The Zips basketball had a figure of $900 K for NIL budget. After reading that the Redhawks in Oxford have 8-10 million to spend for football for the upcoming season, how accurate is this information? Did the Bobcats actually spend more than one million more than the Zips in basketball last season?

But be been told here many times that the House settlement isn’t real and will never take hold. 🤣😎😳 Back to Top Kevin Finnegan General User Member Since: 2/4/2005 Location: Rockton, IL Post Count: 1,219 Status: Offline     RE: NIL Budgets 2026 How accurate is this?

I would have pegged us in the $1-1.2 million range with this year's overhaul. Given how much players are now getting, it's very possible that Simmons, Mitchell, KDA, Che, Siebe, and Dusan all within the $150K-$300K range. Maybe even more for Simmons.

But also has this at the top of our hub page: "Football under Tim Albin is estimated at $4-5M for 2025-26. Basketball under Jeff Boals also receives collective support."

For a decade now, you've been insistent college athletes would never be paid. You tried a bunch of different ways to support your case: Title IX, employment costs, insurance costs, unionization. Meanwhile, in every thread there are people discussing viable paths to making it happen. You insisted, over and over, that it wasn't possible and would bankrupt college sports. Now there's a framework in place and schools are paying athletes directly. And, of course, you're acting like somehow you've been proven right in all of this. Like I said, $1000 to food insecurity in Southeast Ohio if you can share a link to a single thread where I told you the House settlement isn't real. $2000 if you can link to two, since you have been told many times.

So do I need to say it again? $2000, man. Easy money for people that need it. And they're gonna need it even more now that Ohio Athletics is bankrupt and Athens will be losing out on the economic activity of home football and basketball games. Timing couldn't be better.
