In a rare, small and likely temporary setback to its position of financial power in college sports, the Southeastern Conference had a nearly 4% decline in revenue during its 2022 fiscal year, the conference’s new federal tax records show.

The document – provided by the conference on Thursday in response to a request from USA TODAY Sports – shows the SEC with total revenue of just over $802 million for a year ending Aug. 31, 2022.

It reported $833.4 million in revenue for its 2021 fiscal year.

Even with the decline – its first in at least 10 years – the SEC is likely to be far ahead of every Power Five conference except the Big Ten in total revenue for 2022. But the decline meant that distributions to its 14 member schools averaged about $49.9 million per school, a decrease of about $4.7 million per school compared to the distributions the conference reported for its 2021 fiscal year.

And this is the rest of the story.Which you conveniently left out:

quote:

Per Berkowitz, the decline wasn’t unexpected and should be an anomaly going forward.

Most of the decline in the SEC’s 2022 revenue and distributions can be attributed to each school having received a $4 million share of a signing bonus that the conference got when it signed a new football TV deal with ESPN in December 2020, which put that money into the fiscal 2021 cycle,” Berkowitz wrote.

That new TV deal

Point #1- That's for fiscal year ending Aug 31 2022, so it's for revenue from the 2021 football season, not "last year" in real calendar talk.

Point #2- The statement doesn't mean the Big10 made more revenue, it only says the SEC probably made more than anyone except the Big10, which might have made more. Does the article actually say how much revenue the Big10 made during that same fiscal year? Does the Big10 have the same fiscal calendar as the SEC?

" What it means" when it comes to championships is once again Ohio state and the big10 will be on the outside looking in at the SEC.

I love this. It didn't, but it probably did.

Why would I post a topic about the SEC on any other board than an SEC one, let alone any of them?

And none too soon according to the article. The SEC needs you both to keep it close.

The Big Ten is #3 in performance on the field and that is where it counts.

No, no you won't. In 2 years you guys will be regretting your deal with ABC/ESPN. Some already are.
