Perhaps you would but it's standard in sports leagues.
There are also other industries (sales, certain medical businesses, insurance, property management, collections, among others) where % of revenue is not an uncommon split with the professional generating said revenue.
Just because you have life experience limited to a particular industry doesn't mean all industries follow that comp model.
False, they only get a % of the revenue they generated, and then they are responsible for their own expenses etc. Which is where the 60% I mentioned above comes from in my business.
So if you want to say that 60% gets a % of the revenue they generated, sure. But they actually generated 100% and I kept 40% for myself and gave them 60%.
That's not the same thing as one of them coming and saying they want a % of all the revenue. That would be ridiculous and never happen.

One such structure includes a base salary and a revenue goal - over that goal an increasing % of generated revenue directly goes to the revenue generator.

Don't take my word for it look up the NBA and NFL revenue splits.

This is definitionally collusion under antitrust law and was directly addressed in the legal decisions. The judge's example was restaurants colluding to pay chefs less because it "makes the food taste better" - great argument.
You're effectively arguing for price fixing by saying it makes "college football taste better".
Collusion in Antitrust Law: Horizontal collusion exists where competitors at the same market level agree to fix or control the prices they will charge for their respective goods or services. For instance, two parties may collude by limiting or restricting supply, sharing insider information, or dividing the market.
If it creates more consumer protections then "collusion" can be allowable - for example industry standards. Whether that be around cleanliness of certain facilities, certification of technicians, or standardizating USB plugs. However, even this type of "collusion" can be challenged if it limits consumer choice, competition, etc.
