NIL at Oklahoma State Cowboys
Oklahoma State football competes in the Big 12, where NIL spending generally runs below SEC and Big Ten levels, and its donor-backed effort is organized around the Pokes with a Purpose collective. The fundraising tradition is unusual: the late Boone Pickens gave hundreds of millions to Cowboy athletics, and that donor culture carries into the NIL era. Few Cowboys appear in national valuation rankings, so most published player figures are estimates. Since 2025, the House settlement allows Oklahoma State to pay athletes directly under the roughly $20.5 million first-year cap, which grows annually, an important equalizer for a school whose home market in Stillwater is small. The school brands its men's teams Cowboys and its women's teams Cowgirls.
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 Caden, so the value shown here is a modeled estimate. See how NIL valuations work.
