Players like Coleman Hawkins, Hunter Dickinson and Oumar Ballo expressed their dissatisfaction with the NIL figures leaked on Wednesday, but the NIL number for JT Toppin at Texas Tech has been announced.
According to multiple reports, Toppin is set to return to his junior season to earn $4 million from Texas Tech, and he will undoubtedly become one of the finest athletes in college basketball.
Matt Norlander of CBS Sports first broke the news about Toppin’s revenues, saying, “JT Toppin is expected to be paid $4 million in NIL revenues at Texas Tech next season. Source tells CBS Sports.
From 2024-25, Kansas’ Coleman Hawkins was reported as the top collector of college basketball, with the NIL fund snatching the $2 million mark. After the final game of the season, just two weeks after the transfer portal, that number crossed many times.
Toppin posted some incredible numbers in his first season with the Red Raiders, earning Big 12 Player of the Year honors as a sophomore. The Texas Native recorded 18.2 points and 9.4 rebounds per game with 55.4% shooting from the field.
It’s not possible to become a modern-day dangerous topic of college basketball for Texas technology basketball, but as a result, the star’s big man has returned to Lubbock for another year of domination.
