This is what happens when you believe you should be paid on effort and not results.

Welcome to a free market economy, Ms. Clark. I am sure she is fine with not evenly sharing her NIL deal with the other 14 players on her team in the name of equity and fairness.

I think the mistake was a three-way one with men's basketball, baseball, and women's basketball. The 18.% is likely men's basketball. The 15% is baseball. The 2.4% is women's basketball. Although, I am kind of surprised by that. I would've easily believed that baseball and women's bball were switched.

This is what happens when a stupid arse government mandate like Title IX gets confused with capitalism.

There is no such thing as men's sports. If a woman is good enough they can play basketball, baseball or football. There is nothing stopping them.

Well that's because a woman made the chart.

Softball makes list and baseball doesn’t?

Bubba cola doesn’t make as much as Coke a Cola either

Rafael Nadal: “It’s a comparison we shouldn’t even make. Female models earn more than male models and nobody says anything. Why? Because they have a larger following. Who gathers a larger audience earns more”.

If the chart is correct and the blue is actually women's hoops they seem to make more then the guys so whatever
You know it's March when girls basketball players are bitching in a desperate bid to be relevant
Whoever Clark is is completely wrong as well.
It's not really brands tossing around the cash anyways most of it is just "LLCs" dropping bags in the open

Why is women’s basketball second?

Football, baseball, and men’s basketball lead all NIL activities, per Opendorse, and account for nearly half of all NIL activity, while women’s basketball represents less than 5%.
If the article listed them in order then I guess that is right

I said from the beginning this is what will kill NIL. When Haylee, Bailey and Kaileigh realize how much the starting PG at Kentucky, or the QBs at Alabama and Ohio State are making they're going to start screaming, "Our fair share!" at the top of their lungs. And, trust me, they're going to have a willing and receptive audience from university officials and the media. For those of you who are going to counter with, "No one watches or cares about women's sports" you're acting as if logic, reason or good old supply and demand matter one iota. This is cultural Marxist identity politics and what passes for American academia we're talking about. Mundane things like reality and market forces are completely irrelevant to those types. The drumbeat to right these systemic wrongs is going to get awfully loud in the next few years.

Naw. This is exactly why the NCAA and its member institutions did backflips when NIL became an avenue b/c it avoided the issues that would come with direct compensation for athletes by the schools. Title 9 would destroy any direct compensation scheme because of what we see in OP.
NIL? Third parties. Colleges can't do this. Why I've argued for 10+ years endorsements were the way to solve the payment issue.

This is true. People can virtue signal all they want but Gordon M can decide who represents his law firm or Canes can still decide who they want in their chicken finger commercials. Honestly they want who would attract the most eyeballs (theoretically) and that’s why the LSU gymnast with the HUGE social media following also got a HUGE NIL deal.
