Here are the leagues' units circa 2014-19:

ACC = 114 & counting
Big 10 = 94 & counting
Big 12 = 83 & counting
SEC = 79 & counting
Pac 12 = 61 & counting
Big East = 60
American = 34 & counting
A10 = 34
WCC = 25 & counting
MVC = 19
MWC = 16
CUSA = 10
Sun Belt = 8

Note, the American has 11 units from 2014 rolling off next year, the A10 has 13 rolling off from 2014 as well due to realignment.

Units are paid out over six years and are worth approximately $275K each.

Each team alive currently can only earn two more units. You Max out your units by going to the Final 4. Teams do not earn extra units at the Final Four.

I thought there wouldn’t be math on this board.

ACC Total of 114 so far is roughly $2M per year per team as I understand it.

I don’t know if the number is right but anything close to that is a chunk of change and why I saw we should root for ACC teams. $$$$. Especially with all the dome reno stuff. I have to reread Marks post slower. By the sounds of it we can still root against Duke in the F4 if they are there and it won’t take money from us.

Yes...Duke to the F4 is good for the ACC (moneywise) anything after doesn't earn more units.

Here is an article explaining that the units ratchet up a couple percent each year. It will be about $280K per unit in 2019.

NCAA Tournament success worth big money for Big 12
