On3 Announces Inaugural NIL Elite Series Event
Elite high school football athletes that are a part of the 2024 college recruiting class have been invited to Nashville to participate in the On3 NIL Elite Series presented by Mizuno, the first event under the On3 OS division.
The event, scheduled for May 30-June 1, will connect these athletes with the leading voices and decision makers in college sports. Athletes will also get an in-depth understanding of their On3 NIL Valuation and an understanding of the latest trends with Name, Image and Likeness.
“Our NIL Valuations have become the standard across college sports and the NIL Elite Series highlights our initiative to serve athletes, universities, collectives and brands,” said Shannon Terry, Founder and CEO of On3. “We have the fastest growing media brand in college sports, and the On3 OS division will provide data and connection to elite athletes and others through products, events and services.”
The speakers for the Elite Series will feature voices from media, legal, financial and other fields that can provide the invited athletes and guardians insight into the rapidly evolving NIL Marketplace.
LSU gymnast and social influencer Olivia Dunne will be a featured speaker during the On3 NIL Elite Series event. Dunne, who has a current On3 NIL Valuation of $3.4 million and recently became the first college athlete to join the Sports Illustrated swimsuit family, will speak to athletes and parents on how she has built her NIL Valuation and what she has learned.
Nationally known football analyst Kirk Herbstreit will also be a speaker at the series, talking to the invitation-only group of elite football players and their parents from the class of 2024 about the unique NIL era.
“This event facilitates information and transparency into the marketplace for these athletes,” said Grant Frerking, Director, On3 Athlete Network Development. “Our goal is to create more opportunities to educate and prepare athletes to navigate a marketplace that is projected to grow to nearly $5 billion over the next few years.”
Invitations to the event have been extended to athletes and a guardian. Speakers and panelists for the event will be announced in the coming weeks.
