Fans have had no problem ignoring the NFL....
The NFL also has no problem isolating some of its fans, unlike the MLB. NFL is too big to fail and they know it; white guys in their 40s are big mad? That’s fine, the 20-30 age group will more than make up for their lost viewership (and even then, the people who stop going to games will still tune in some Sundays out of sheer boredom and habit). The MLB by comparison has a much less corporatized feel and has a stronger sense of regionalism literally built into its parks (whereas NFL stadiums and teams are movable and adaptable to a new location and event by design). They’re not nearly as powerful as the NFL but they also have some strengths the NFL doesn’t.

Students are obviously first but the Northern half of Atlanta is also very important.
Not saying they’re not but with college baseball, how likely are you to get folks from metro ATL to buy season tickets and/or drive 3 straight days or stay in town for two nights to watch a weekend SEC series? Enthusiasm from those folks matters but unlike football or even basketball, they’re not going to consistently fill your stadium (not unless/until Georgia baseball becomes a can’t miss national power).

Younger crowd could careless, the NFL has bit the hand that feeds it. Younger generation digs soccer and axe throwing, most don't even have cable accept for internet to stream.
Baseball, is actually whiter and wealthier han ever with all the travel ball and expense. The diversity seems to come from latin America these days....
