I don't think project players are getting much in terms of NIL money.
Remember that college ice hockey is still a very minor sport in the US compared to college basketball and college football.
If they aren't a big name they won't get much. McKenna only got as much as he did because he is being touted as a generational player and Penn State reportedly offered him about three times what the next highest offer from Michigan State.
