SMU NIL.
SMU — the Mustangs in Dallas, TX is a ACC program in the P4 football and men's basketball NIL market. SMU sits in the ACC, a P4 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 SMU than a generic athlete tag. Enter position, not just "SMU football."

Does SMU pay Power 4 NIL?
SMU is a Power 4 ACC school. That is the top NIL tier in college football, but not every roster spot is a seven-figure job. Position and playing time still dominate.
Can I use this if I'm transferring to SMU?
Yes. Set school to SMU, conference ACC, division P4. That's how we price inbound portal football — destination market, not the school you're leaving.
Do high school recruits committed to SMU get an NIL estimate?
Yes. Choose class year HS, enter recruiting stars, and pick SMU 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 ACC market.
How much NIL do SMU men's basketball players make?
