Now that college football players are able to make money off their name with the new NIL rule, many are using it to their advantage. Oklahoma quarterback General Booty is taking advantage of his unique name by selling shirts, like those with “Booty Call” and “I (Love) Booty” written on them. But what makes Booty’s merchandise so special is that he is donating 20% of the proceeds to the Oklahoma Children’s Hospital.
We’re just going to keep getting incredible NIL stuff every day until the season starts.
