The Friday File: Now that college athletes can earn money for their name, image, and likeness (NIL), wow are they starting to rake it in. In NCAA Division I men’s basketball, the average income of the starting five is now $3.3 million. For women’s basketball it’s $730,000. In football, the average income of starting players in the Power Four conferences is $10.7 million. Absolutely astounding, and good for them.
