re: Sports Management degree?

I’m not the one to tell him he can’t do it.

The reality is that he can be an NFL kicker.

He could also end up in a van down by the river.

Oh I don't feel bad at all, my 5 years in Baton Rouge were incredible and I'm making more money with less stress than I would have ever seen working in athletics or facility management.

Yea, he could definitely use it.

He meets tomorrow with the health services folks who picked up on some anxiety issues with his entrance exams…be interesting to see what they say. All the confidence in the world doesn’t change the stress of the task.

Yup. He looked up to Cade York and saw that reality. Just have to take the Cam Little route instead.

Not really. But I will say I know multiple people that worked in sports sales for major league teams, and the two guys I know of both quit doing that and working more lucrative fields now.

One of them told me that the pro team he worked for could pay people really low salaries just because people wanted to be around the pro sports team every day and go to the games and be on the court side

that is definitely part of it, but that part only goes so far, my daughter worked for the Cowboys for 10 years in suite sales, she kind of lucked out because they built the new stadium about the time she went to work full time for them(she had interned four years while in college,) and Jerry was paying commissions to the sales staff as if they were realtors, but, as is typical of pro sports teams, if you aren't a player, coach, or last named Jones, in the case of the Cowboys, there's a pretty low ceiling pay wise

Ask about half or more of the LSU athletes.

Maintain eligibility on his college sports team.

I'm going to be honest, judging by your posts, I'm very confused about your relationship with your son. You are all over the place with your posts. You have a son that is a kicker at Florida, but 6 months ago on early signing day, you didn't even know how long a scholarship agreement was for. You are on record claiming to know how much players are making in NIL, then also asking if player share info about how much NIL money they are making. For someone who has a son that is currently on a college football tema you seem to be pretty clueless about everything involving college sports, NIL, etc while also claiming to know a lot about all of that stuff.
