San Diego football NIL.
San Diego is a Pac-12 program in the G5 football NIL market. San Diego sits in the Pac-12, a G5 football market. Collectives and brand deals here do not move like a Group of 5 leftover or a Power 4 blue-blood — the calculator asks for school on purpose. Premium positions (QB, EDGE, portal guards) move more at San Diego than a generic athlete tag. Enter position, not just "San Diego football."
Indicative G5 band: $8,000 – $350,000. Not a published San Diego contract — a market range before you enter stats.
San Diego football vs the national average
A national NIL average is useless at San Diego. Pac-12 G5 spending is its own market. San Diego helps at the top of the roster; depth is still G5 depth.
High school commits to San Diego
If you're a high school football recruit committed or trending to San Diego, run the estimate with class year HS. Active 4-star and 5-star recruits have a $400,000 expected-NIL floor. Former 4-stars already in college do not get that floor.

San Diego football FAQ
How much NIL do San Diego football players make?
At the G5 / Pac-12 tier San Diego plays in, typical football NIL bands run $8,000–$350,000. Starters and portal additions sit toward the top; depth sits toward the bottom. Run the calculator with your snaps for a file-specific number.
Does San Diego pay Power 4 NIL?
No. San Diego football is G5 (Pac-12). Power 4 starter money does not automatically apply. The estimator uses division so a San Diego offer isn't scored like Georgia or Ohio State.
Can I use this if I'm transferring to San Diego?
Yes. Set school to University of San Diego, conference Pac-12, division G5. That's how we price inbound portal football — destination market, not the school you're leaving.
Do high school recruits committed to San Diego get an NIL estimate?
Yes. Choose class year HS, enter recruiting stars, and pick San Diego as the committed/projected school. Active 4-star and 5-star recruits have a $400k expected-NIL floor; everyone else is priced on projection plus the Pac-12 market.
