Does every player get paid now? Is there any way to figure out how much a player makes?

Not sure but looking at yesterday's tape. If anyone is getting paid more than a Taco Casa Taco. It's too much.

Yes every player gets paid. There isn’t really a way to know the exact amount, but that’s where the revenue sharing comes in. Some players get more based off actual NiL or “fake NiL” boosters.

But all of them are getting something.

Im just wondering if its safe to say every Bama starter is making more money than the average person.

I think that's a safe assumption. Let's say we spent 20 million on the roster. That's over 200k per player if all are paid equally, which they obviously aren't. But if the average Joe makes say 75K a year? I think its a safe assumption all or most starters are making at least that

Throw in tuition and everything else they get for free and the value far exceeds what the average person makes

Yes I’d say each player is probably getting at least 40-50k in rev share. Obviously scholarship, free food, housing included so you can gross that up if you like. They are professional athletes.
