10. Ice Capades

With the recent Winter Olympics just concluded I remember when Figure Skaters would tour the Country in the Ice Capades to capitalize on the buzz just created for the sport and make money. Now most of the top Olympic athletes are millionaires.

NCAA football has a large percentage of the millionaire college athletes. Which is not surprising since most college athletic departments rely on the money football brings in..

*NIL valuations are from On3.com, which calculates the optimized NIL opportunity for athletes relative to the overall NIL market and projects outcomes over the next 12 months.

1. Texas QB Arch Manning ($6.8 million)
