NIL at Texas Tech Red Raiders

Texas Tech has become one of the most talked about NIL programs in the Big 12. The Matador Club, its primary collective, funded a widely reported roster spending push heading into the 2025 and 2026 seasons, and the school's aggressiveness extends beyond football: softball pitcher NiJaree Canady's move to Lubbock came with the first widely reported seven figure NIL deal in her sport. Since the 2025 House settlement, Texas Tech can also pay athletes directly through revenue sharing, roughly 20.5 million dollars in year one with annual growth. For a program without blue blood history, the Red Raiders have used donor money deliberately to compete with the sport's traditional powers for talent.

How NIL value is calculated

An NIL value is an estimate of what an athlete could earn from name, image and likeness over 12 months, not a salary or a confirmed deal. We weigh audience (social reach and engagement), performance and role, school and market, and the sport and position. No exact NIL figure is publicly disclosed for A.J., so the value shown here is a modeled estimate. See how NIL valuations work.
