Traill County's institution invested $734,379 on their football teams in 2024, a 28.3%% increase in funding from the previous year, according to the U.S. Department of Education.

This represents 32.3% of all money invested on sport teams at Mayville State University during 2024.

The average sports expenses at Traill County have grown 150.9% since 2010.

College football is one of the biggest sports in the U.S., with some college teams eclipsing NFL teams in terms of attendance and profit.

College athletes can now be paid directly by schools after a settlement approved in early July, which also requires the NCAA to pay $2.8 billion in back damages over 10 years to athletes who played from 2016 to the present. 

In 2022, after years of legal and legislative pressure, athletes also gained the right to profit from their names, images and likenesses through state laws and an NCAA policy change.
