It reveals that Rutgers’ Players Era Tournament pays $100,000 to teams reaching the Premier Four and includes $900,000‑$800,000 in NIL activity value for players through 2028. By contrast, Arizona pays $95,000 to Cal Poly and $90,000 per game to Northern Arizona, while Illinois pays Baylor $250,000 for a single game.
