You were the one arguing from the basis that the programs are highly profitable. They are in fact simply highly subsidized.
My argument was that the schools have already been recouped for their expenses from high profile athletes:

how much money do you think those athletes that would garner endorsements already bring to the school through their athletic endeavors?

Legitimate endorsements? On par with the costs of their attendance.
Pay for play? Sky is the limit.
A player like Trevor Lawrence would be a notable exception because of the length of his career at a really high level.
How much is Trevor Lawrence’s endorsement of a product worth in Oregon? Almost $0. These are highly regional athletes/deals.
A player like Devonta Smith had one year of ultra high performance. What’s a one year’s worth of endorsements for a Heisman level athlete? $500k? And you’re still dealing with an incredible outlier.
What’s a starting middle linebacker’s endorsement for two years at Vanderbilt worth? $3.50?
