OT: Howard Men's Basketball Signs NIL Deal

Pablo

Hall of Famer

"The moving company College H.U.N.K.S. Hauling Junk has been active in the name, image and likeness space with college athletes, signing Miami quarterback D'Eriq King to a sizable endorsement deal and recently signing the entire San Diego State football team to a contract.

The company has once again made a big splash by signing the Howard University men's basketball team to an endorsement deal on Monday. This is believed to be the first deal of its kind with an entire team from an HBCU."

"The players will receive a specified dollar amount up front to split evenly and will then have opportunities individually to earn more money through incentives with the company by bringing in new clients or employees.

The co-owners of the business, Nick Friedman and Omar Soliman, grew up in the Washington, D.C., area attending Howard University homecoming events. Friedman played on the Howard intramural club basketball team, so this endorsement hit home for the company."
