NIL at Troy Trojans

Troy competes in the Sun Belt Conference, and this database covers its baseball program. NIL economics look very different at this level. Baseball NIL budgets are a small fraction of what football commands even at power conference schools, and individual figures are almost never disclosed, so valuations for Trojans players are modeled estimates rather than reported deals. The 2025 House settlement allows every Division I school to share revenue directly with athletes, but the 20.5 million dollar year one figure is a cap, not a floor, and Sun Belt athletic budgets support far smaller totals, with most of the money directed to football and basketball. For Troy baseball players, NIL income typically means local endorsements, camps, and social media deals.

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