K-State Athletics is proud to announce that it has collaborated with Wildcat NIL to become the official name, image and likeness partner for the department. Wildcat NIL is an independently owned and operated group of passionate supporters — predominantly former K-State student-athletes — who have joined together to provide NIL opportunities to student-athletes.

“Name, image, and likeness continues to evolve and be a big part of the current landscape of college athletics, and it was very important for us as a department to partner with a collective so we can provide our student-athletes every opportunity to benefit from NIL,” Athletics Director Gene Taylor said. “Wildcat NIL has taken enormous strides over the past year to help our student-athletes in any way possible, and we are pleased to recognize them as our official partner for NIL.”

“Wildcat NIL is incredibly proud to be the Official NIL Collective of K-State Athletics,” said Curry Sexton, one of the Managing Directors of Wildcat NIL. “This partnership underscores the paramount significance of name, image, and likeness in the current landscape of college athletics. The K-State Family now has a tremendous opportunity to get involved and help elevate our athletics programs through NIL.”
