If I read that right, $1,025,000 to the softball team. Divided by 25 is $41,000 if it’s allocated evenly across the board.

Football 75%, men's basketball 15%, women's basketball 5% = 95%. I believe the remaining 5%, $1,025,000 will be shared by softball, baseball and others.

I agree. I've seen several stories about how all the Vol's various athletic teams support each other. I highly doubt that support will be extended when $$$ are involved.

These percentages will be the same at virtually every SEC school. I’ve been told that Mississippi State is going to allocate slightly less to men’s basketball and more to baseball, since they have all of those condos/suites at baseball and little premium seating at men’s basketball. But in general, 75/15/5/5 is going to be the breakdown most everywhere.

It’s not a surprise to the coaches, they were informed of this last summer.
