UCF Knights NIL valuations
108 athletes · Big 12 · estimated ranges as of August 2026
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.
