Rhinos made it out of here in only 4 seasons. It was only the 2nd time in the last 8 seasons that the champion came from the Big 8. With a payroll of $248k Rhinos had to win now to be able to afford their payroll. Their only problem is that they have a 9,500 arena that is too small by Div III standards.

Too many teams were winning championships with huge last minute payrolls that Buzzerbeater created an over-extension tax.

We have a salary floor but not a salary cap. Our over-extension tax is based on negative income without regard to salaries. Our league average is negative income which means that teams can be penalized for losing money without having a large payroll.

The following teams have large arenas with low payrolls that are probably making more money than if they got promoted to Div III:

Indianapolis Icers - 35,050 arena, $111,679 payroll
Sioux Falls Rough Riders – 22,925 arena, $80,269 payroll
Hardmoney Outlaws – 20.795 arena, $59,509 payroll
Crocodillians – 14,042 arena, $68,118 payroll
Los Angeles Lords – 15,315 arena, $61,144 payroll before their late spending spree
