NIL at Iowa State Cyclones
Iowa State's NIL effort runs through the We Will Collective, a donor organization that has emphasized broad roster support over headline deals, an approach that fits a program built on player development under coach Matt Campbell. The Cyclones came off their first eleven-win season in 2024, which strengthened the fundraising case in a state with no professional teams to divide fan spending. Ames is a small market, so local endorsement volume is limited and few individual valuations for Cyclone players ever become public. Under the House settlement Iowa State pays athletes directly from a department-wide pool capped near $20.5 million in the first year, an amount that rises each season, with football and men's basketball the primary beneficiaries.
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 Jack, so the value shown here is a modeled estimate. See how NIL valuations work.
