KENT-Kent State Athletics in collaboration with Athlete's Thread, will offer licensed Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) opportunities for Golden Flashes student-athletes.
Student-athletes who have opted into the program will earn royalties from the sale of co-branded apparel featuring their name and number combined with the official Kent State Athletics logo. This opportunity is currently available for men's and women's basketball programs with additional sports available in the coming months. Kent State fans can visit the Golden Flashes collection page to see the available lines of apparel.
"We are extremely excited to work with Athlete's Thread," Deputy Athletics Director/Senior Woman Administrator Suzette McQueen said.
