Tournament Credits

Has it been said how the Big East is distributing tournament credits earned by members?

I know every league is different, but I hadn't really seen anyone say anything about how it works in the Big East.

I have wondered this top. I presume it's the same as had been done previously, but I haven't seen anything official on this.

I believe that the Big East has always done an even distribution of NCAA credits to all the teams in the conference. I suspect that this would continue. If we could routinely get 5 teams in the tournament (and all win a few games) this could turn into decent pot of cash.

If I am remembering correctly, the C7 kept the credits they earned previously, but not sure about the new 3. My guess is they left their credits with the A10.

I could be wrong, but I was under the impression that it was a 50/50 split with the team getting half and the conference distributing the other half. I could be wrong, but it would be kind of unfair if the team that put in the work/time/resources got the same as everyone else (and I know Marquette will likely be benefiting from this arrangement this year).
This is my opinion. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

CU had to leave their credits in the Valley.

In the Valley, they cut each piece 11 ways: one each for the other teams, and two for the team that played in the game.

Actually, I think the league office kept the extra slice, not the school that earned it.

Then possibly it's twelve slices, because I've read in a few places the winner of the game gets an additional piece over and above the regular disbursement.

The Big East has never distributed NCAA credits evenly. While everyone gets a piece, a school that earned more got a bigger slice. TV money is given evenly. I don't know what they will do going forward.
