I'd be shocked if this were true. The NIT doesn't generate anywhere near the revenue as the NCAA tournament due to the lack of a major TV contract.

NCAA tournament games do not pay anything near as much as a regular season game in one of the big boy conferences (Big 12/ACC/SEC, etc).

So do we have a number (game fee) for the OP or not?

Is That Because during the regular season you have to cover your travel expenses with game fee paid and in the Tourney The NCAA covers your expenses?

It's also because working the tournament carries enough prestige they can operate at a market discount.
