Speculation on the part of a professor does not equal a credible source.
How am I supposed to know?

You asked where I got the numbers. There they are.

And FWIW, if you want to classify the claims of a man who's been involved in TV negotiations with NBC in the past, and says the reported number is low, be my guest.

I don't see a reason not to take his word for it. He's been closer to it than anyone who ever written anything on the subject.

Hell, here's a quote that says NBC pays ND $15M:

NBC is paying about $15 million a year in the current deal, enough to help fund most of the reported $18 million Notre Dame must pay to buy out Weis’s contract.
Id the New York Times a legit enough source for you?
