-> On Thursday, the former UConn classmates announced the latest NIL collective to benefit student-athletes: "Bleeding Blue for Good." The nonprofit collective is aimed at helping UConn student-athletes with NIL activity while also benefiting local, underserved communities through charitable events such as sports clinics and speaker appearances. <-
->The collective’s goal is to host an event once a month and partner with various charities across the state. It’s also focused on involving an entire team from UConn instead of just individual athletes at events. So while UConn has NIL leaders such as Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd, this collective is providing opportunities for entire rosters.
Right now the collective is working with the men's and women's basketball teams, but both Greenblatt and Malfettone hope to work with other sports teams, too.<-
