SEC distributes average of almost $52.6 million to full-year members for 2023-24 fiscal year

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — The Southeastern Conference distributed an average of almost $52.6 million to the 14 full-year members for the 2023-24 season in a slight increase from the previous year, according to its tax filing. Yet the league distributed more money to its full-year members, going from reporting about $718 million for 2022-23 to $790.7 million for 2023-24 when factoring in the partial amounts for Oklahoma and Texas. When looking at the most recent tax filings produced by other power conferences, the SEC’s 2023-24 average would trail only the Big Ten, which reported total revenues of $845.6 million with an average payout of $58 million to full members for 2021-22, followed by $879.9 million and $60.3 million for 2022-23. The tax filing also showed commissioner Greg Sankey made more than $4.2 million in compensation, as well as more than $68,000 in additional compensation from the SEC and related organizations.
