If you were signed for a NIL deal, what product or brand would it be for?

  • Great question! A fashion house, an athletic brand and/or at a leadership and educational lecture series – Christine Simmons
  • Burger King, because I’ve always thought the Whopper crushes the Big Mac. – Todd Hairston
  • It would 100% be a SUSTAINABILITY FOCUSED COMPANY – Ellen Zavian
  • My favorite diner in Winston Salem, Allen’s Frozen Diary Treats. – Lyle Adams
  • A kitty litter brand and payment would have to be in product!  – Barbara Walker
  • Definitely a food delivery service like GrubHub, UberEats, DoorDash, etc. – Jackson Donahue
