With the ever-evolving nature of NIL, University of Missouri Athletics has positioned itself with industry leaders to take part in new, innovative initiatives that will benefit student-athletes.
Recent additions to the Tigers' NIL program include a Tigers-specific Opendorse marketplace, enhanced educational programming and the creation of an in-house team to work directly in the NIL space.
Acting within the letter of the Missouri State Law and NCAA legislation, Mizzou Athletics will continue to provide opportunities for student-athletes that will position each student-athlete to enhance their own personal brand through proactive education and individualized brand marketing assistance.
Originally signed into law on July 13, 2021, Missouri's NIL law was amended to permit members of the University, including coaches, to assist in seeking out third-party NIL deals. Coaches and University officials cannot receive compensation for this work, nor serve as representation to student-athletes nor attend meetings between the student-athletes and the third-party. Additionally, Mizzou Athletics will be required to provide yearly financial development education to its student-athletes.
