One of the many coronavirus pandemic's financial fallouts that will impact Missouri State athletics will come from the cancellation of the NCAA Tournament.
Although the MSU men's basketball team wasn't going to qualify for the big dance, the university receives a payout every year from the NCAA through distribution money.
After the cancellation of the tournament, there will be a lot less money to give.
The NCAA will distribute $225 million to its Division I members in June, a whopping $375 million less than had been budgeted after the coronavirus pandemic forced the cancellation of the big-money men's basketball tournament.
