I disagree as most NIL money is short-sighted. It's currently a highly competitive workforce and if you're not getting a good education after four years in college, then you're screwed. Sure there are a ton of lower paying and dead end jobs for former college students, but if former college student-athletes do not graduate with a meaningful degree then forget about climbing to the upper-middle class and above pay grades.

When I started my career with a major financial firm, the woman who hired me was a Cornell graduate. When only after a year, she protected me from a huge round of layoffs. If I had played major college sports with a worthless recreation management degree, I would still be selling Nikes at Dicks. My Ivy education has definitely been a huge help with my career.
