Olivia Dunne reveals largest amount she’s been paid for sponsored post

It’s no secret that Olivia Dunne is raking in NIL dough.

The exact figures, though, are still jaw-dropping.

The LSU gymnast revealed the largest check she’s gotten on a sponsored post in an appearance on the Full Send Podcast, saying it was over $500,000.

Her NIL valuation, according to On3, is $3.3 million — second among all college athletes only to Bronny James while one spot ahead of incoming Texas quarterback Arch Manning.

Dunne has also made news this week for a video released by Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit edition, as she participated in a shoot for the publication back in January.

“I want to show young girls that you can have it all, and you don’t need to choose between whatever it is you’re passionate about,” Dunne, 20, told the publication. “You can be passionate about music, art. You don’t need to pick and choose. You can do it all and be successful. I think you need to set your own expectations for success and dream big.”

Dunne also attended LSU baseball’s College World Series victory over Florida.

Her own gymnastics squad finished fourth nationally, as Dunne regularly made headlines thanks to her social media presence.

That is unlikely to stop anytime soon, as she will return to school this fall.

Her NIL numbers should keep going up as Dunne continues to build a following on Instagram, where she has 4.2 million followers and TikTok, where she boasts 7.6 million followers.

In a growing landscape for women’s college sports, that places Dunne squarely in the top spot as the most famous female college athlete in the country.
