Walmart won't be involved in this and not because they don't care about sports but because they have stores in every state in the US. They are already getting slammed by Amazon and other online shopping. They're not going to alienate customers in other states, especially in the South, where football allegiance is a real thing.

Kind of like Nike has alienated all fans other than Oregon Duck fans? Get real.

You think Jim Bob in rural Alabama with his 4 teeth cares about Walmart sponsoring athletes in Arkansas?

Walmart the corporation has voiced support for controversial things like BLM and trannies.

They aren't the least bit worried that Ole Miss or Auburn fan would quit buying camo or fishing lures from them if they started offering NIL deals to Razorback athletes. That's just silly.
