Alabama State University (ASU), located in Montgomery, Alabama, is a historically Black university and proud member of the Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC). The Hornets compete across a wide range of NCAA Division I sports, and their student-athletes represent the best of ASU's commitment to excellence, community, and legacy both on and off the field.
In a significant step forward for Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) opportunities, Alabama State Athletics has partnered with Influxer — a platform purpose-built to connect college athletes with officially licensed merchandise opportunities that generate real income and real brand equity.

"Influxer is proud to partner with Alabama State University Athletics and create a meaningful NIL opportunity for Hornets student-athletes," said Tyler Jaynes, Founder and CEO of Influxer. "As a former college athlete, I understand how valuable it is for student-athletes to have accessible ways to build their personal brands and benefit from their name, image, and likeness. Through officially licensed merchandise, ASU athletes will be able to connect more directly with their families, fans, and the broader Hornets community while earning from the support they have worked so hard to build."
Through this partnership, Alabama State student-athletes gain access to Influxer's NIL merchandise platform, which allows them to earn directly from co-branded, officially licensed apparel and gear. Unlike traditional sponsorship models, Influxer's approach is designed to be accessible to athletes across all sports — not just the highest-profile programs — making it one of the most inclusive NIL solutions available at the collegiate level.
For Hornets fans, alumni, and supporters, this partnership means more ways to show up for the athletes you love. Every purchase from the Alabama State collection directly supports student-athletes while keeping you connected to the program. Whether you're cheering from the stands or following from afar, wearing ASU Influxer merch is a direct investment in the next generation of Hornets talent.
