Bowie State University, located in Bowie, Maryland, is a historically Black university and proud member of the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA). The Bulldogs compete across a range of NCAA Division II sports, and their student-athletes represent the best of Bowie State's legacy of excellence, resilience, and community pride.
In a powerful step forward for Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) opportunities at the HBCU level, Bowie State Athletics has announced a partnership 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 Bowie State University Athletics and create a meaningful NIL opportunity for Bulldogs 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, Bowie State athletes will be able to connect more directly with their families, fans, and the broader Bulldogs community while earning from the support they have worked so hard to build."
Through this partnership, Bowie 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 Bulldogs fans, alumni, and supporters, this partnership means more ways to show up for the athletes you love. Every purchase from the Bowie 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 Bowie State Influxer merch is a direct investment in the next generation of Bulldogs talent.
