Budget

Combined total$1,900,000

Feeds a small, low-confidence "Geographic leverage" line in each prospect's valuation — a general behavioral tendency based on distance from home, not a verified fact about any specific player.

Feeds Commercial NIL Value's market-size baseline — never touches institutional valuation.

Offers at or above this total require sign-off from another finance-scoped teammate before they can be sent. Leave blank to require none.

Comma-separated. Compared against each prospect's stated intended major on their profile — a conversation point, not a factor in any valuation.

School costs

Lets scholarship amounts be entered or shown as a % of cost of attendance anywhere in the product, alongside the dollar figure.

Total cost of attendance$48,000

Market benchmarks

Typical total package value at your competitive level, by grade tier. These are your own numbers — used to estimate each prospect's market value against your benchmarks. For most rosters, scholarship % is the real lever here, not cash — direct-pay to baseball is thin (roughly a quarter-million per team on average at the FBS level), and only a small minority of players with real draft leverage see six-figure-plus NIL cash.

Required for the valuation card's estimate — every prospect is translated to this level before pricing. Also drives recruiting-compliance division flags.

Position need ranking

Coach-declared positional priority — one of the inputs behind every prospect's Team fit adjustment.

Rank the 9 positions by how urgently your program needs them filled this cycle. This is independent of what your team's stats show (see Position scarcity vs. Position need below); both feed the same bounded “Team fit” adjustment.
