NIL at UCF Knights
UCF joined the Big 12 in 2023, completing a fast climb from Group of Five standing, but its NIL market has not yet caught up with its power conference membership. A 2026 review of the full football roster found no published player level valuations at all, one of only a few power conference programs where that was true, so figures for Knights athletes are modeled rather than drawn from reported deals. The school does hold real advantages: one of the nation's largest enrollments, the Orlando market, and Big 12 media revenue. Under the 2025 House settlement UCF can share revenue directly with athletes, about 20.5 million dollars in year one and rising annually, alongside third party NIL activity.
How NIL value is calculated
An NIL value is an estimate of what an athlete could earn from name, image and likeness over 12 months, not a salary or a confirmed deal. We weigh audience (social reach and engagement), performance and role, school and market, and the sport and position. No exact NIL figure is publicly disclosed for Josh, so the value shown here is a modeled estimate. See how NIL valuations work.
