The SEC's revenue is closing in on the NCAA's TOTAL amount of revenue BEFORE OU & TU join!

This is stunning.
If money is power in college sports, then the Southeastern Conference was making its case for intercollegiate supremacy long before its recent poaching of Texas and Oklahoma. -- Daniel Libit, Yahoo Sports
For the tax year 2018-2019, the SEC generated $720 million compared with the NCAA as-a-whole, $1.12 billion. This is BEFORE Texas & Oklahoma approached the SEC for membership and was accepted.
This means....The trend line has long suggested that the SEC would eventually overtake the NCAA (and the Big Ten) as the biggest-earning college sports organization in America.
No wonder Texas wanted to join the SEC.

So the SEC "poached" UT/OU even though both teams "approached the SEC for membership?"

That is a weird definition of closing in.
The SEC needs to increase revenue 55% to catch up.

Is this saying that the SEC generated 64% of the NCAA's total revenue or is that 1.12 billion figure not including the 720 million from the SEC? I know the SEC is a cash cow but I'm not sure I buy that. March Madness alone generates over a billion dollars in ad revenue.

Moving off of CBS to ESPN will probably net the SEC +$300 million a year.
