Wouldn't you say that's a little different than the Arkansas Womens Softball team. May just a little?

Anyway, what I am foreseeing is a huge gap between the men's deals and the women's deals, which will lead to problems.

Despite how 'good' it looks on the surface, it's going to lead to a cluster, most likely.

How is that any different than the current pro environment?

My point is if someone is marketable enough, they don't need to be "hot" and it certainly doesn't matter how many people show up and watch their sport vs men's sports.

Numerous female athletes have proven otherwise via the olympics etc.

Yeah, like that LSU gymnast with 1.1M followers will be making a lot per post. Far more than any QB.

I don't see why it's a problem. They wanted more capitalism in college athletics and this is what marketing looks like now. Hot girls and famous guys on instagram
