And the fact is that a regular student does not have as much earning potential NOW than a decent and popular LSU student.
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.

I am almost certain it will be much much more than 20k a year. Also, about 1000$ a month comes in the form of a stipend every month. That’s 12k right there. Sign some autographs, promote some companies, even your slightly above avg player is going to be making upwards of 100k pre tax after it’s all said and done.
LSU put out today in a recruiting flyer that Ja’marr Chase would have made 500,000 JUST with Instagram and Twitter. What do you think he would have made with that PLUS other social media, appearances, autographs, jerseys , etc. every major team will have at LEAST 5-10 players at that level of money.
You won’t find that at school buddy. At least not in my time.
