The Odell Beckham Jr. LSU cash exchange should be a non-story

Odell Beckham Jr. apparently gave some LSU players cold hard cash after they won the national championship again Clemson. So what? Yes, that should be it. That should be the reaction. Instead, the reaction was this: Statement from #LSU on Odell …

Odell Beckham Jr. apparently gave some LSU players cold hard cash after they won the national championship again Clemson. So what? Yes, that should be it. That should be the reaction. Instead, the reaction was this:

Seriously, NCAA? Odell Beckham Jr. was excited his alma mater won the College Football Playoff. He threw out some money. It’s his money, and he can spend it how he wants . . . well except by giving it to some college kids who aren’t allowed to make money off their hard work and performance.

Yes, it is illegal under NCAA bylaws, but this reaction is exactly why everyone hates the NCAA. For years, players weren’t allowed to make money off their likeness. This wouldn’t affect the NCAA. It wouldn’t make these players non-amateurs in the eyes of many fans. Still, the NCAA pressed on. That’s slowly changing because the NCAA realized it couldn’t win the fight, but the fact that LSU had to report this action to the NCAA is ludicrous. Last time I checked, ESPN pays $5.6 billion for the television rights for the championship and CFP 6 bowls. That’s $470 million a year. What’s the most Odell could have given a kid last night? Maybe a few hundred dollars. It’s crazy.

There’s no way LSU could avoid this mess since Joe Burrow admitted Beckham Jr. was giving people cash on the Pardon My Take Podcast, but this shouldn’t be a story. It should be a cool thing. Now, it’s either funny or sad, and it’s tough to decide which one it is.

If Beckham only gave money to graduating seniors or players who were intending on declaring for the draft anyway, it’s even more confusing as to why this is a story. These players weren’t student-athletes the second after that clock struck zeroes and the party started on Bourbon street.

To recap: Odell Beckham Jr. gave money to players who can’t have a job, don’t get paid, and make the NCAA, conferences, coaches, ESPN, and everyone else involved a ton of money. They are the only people who don’t get compensated — and please don’t give me the scholarship argument, it’s old and not nearly as much money as some big-teams generate. So, OBJ compensated them. Good for him. He’s the only person in the right in this situation.

Money makers: Ranking the richest seasons in women’s golf

Beth Ann Nichols breaks down the LPGA players who have made the most money each season throughout history.

NAPLES, Fla. – On the eve of the biggest payday in the history of women’s golf – $1.5 million – we take a look at the LPGA’s most lucrative seasons. Not even a victory tomorrow from Jin Young Ko would top Lorena Ochoa’s 2007 season, when the World Golf Hall of Famer won eight tournaments and finished second five times. Ochoa banked $4,364,994 that year, the most of any player in LPGA history.

Yani Tseng came the closest to Ochoa in 2011, when she earned $2,921,713. Tseng triumphed seven times that year, winning two major titles and finishing runner-up twice.

Ko, the 2019 Rolex LPGA Player of the Year, came into the final event with $2,714,281. While she can’t catch Ochoa, a second-place finish at the CME would make Ko the second player to break the $3 million mark. A victory would get her to $4,214,281.

Ko won two majors this season and has a chance to join Annika Sorenstam as the only players in LPGA history to break 69 in scoring. The World No. 1 surged up the leaderboard on Saturday with a 66. Second place at the CME gets a $480,000 paycheck.

Annika Sorenstam ranks third on the all-time list with $2,863,904 in 2002. She won 11 times that year and finished runner-up on three occasions.

Mickey Wright owns the LPGA record for most wins in a season. She won 13 times in 1963 and earned $31,269.

And what about Nancy Lopez’s incredible 1978 rookie season, when she won nine times? She collected $189,814 for her efforts that year.

Take a look at the LPGA’s annual money leaders throughout the years.
