We are talking earning potential here. And the fact is that a regular student does not have as much earning potential NOW than a decent and popular LSU student.
With that being said, you also can’t compare a southeastern football player to LSU football player. I love that LSU players will be paid. I don’t know how small schools and small markets will be able to compete.

You're again only looking a small fraction of all LSU athletes to try to make your point.
I made roughly $20k each of my last two years in school working co-op jobs, and I can assure there is nothing special about me. I'd be willing to be that $20k is going to be more than the vast majority of athletes at LSU will make off NIL.
ETA Athletes aren't going to be able to work like the average student can because of all their obligations, another factor I feel yall are ignoring.

Nolatrain504,
I don’t know either but to me that’s a issue for the free market to decide.
