NIL at Virginia Tech Hokies

Virginia Tech's NIL market rests on one of the ACC's most devoted fanbases, with Lane Stadium football the clear center of gravity. The Hokies compete in a league whose media revenue trails the Big Ten and SEC, which puts a premium on donor participation, and the program shares its home state donor pool with Virginia. Under the 2025 House settlement, Virginia Tech can pay athletes directly through revenue sharing, capped around 20.5 million dollars across sports in the first year and increasing annually, with third party NIL deals continuing alongside. Published valuations for individual Hokies are rare, so most figures for the roster are modeled estimates. Basketball and other sports draw support, but football drives the NIL economy in Blacksburg.

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 Benji, so the value shown here is a modeled estimate. See how NIL valuations work.
