Concordia University Texas, located in Austin, Texas, is a private Lutheran liberal arts institution and proud member of the Red River Athletic Conference (RRAC). The Tornados compete across a range of NAIA sports, and their student-athletes embody Concordia's mission of faith, learning, and service both on and off the field.
In a meaningful step forward for Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) opportunities at the NAIA level, Concordia Texas 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 Concordia University Texas Athletics and create a meaningful NIL opportunity for Tornados 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, Concordia Texas athletes will be able to connect more directly with their families, fans, and the broader Tornados community while earning from the support they have worked so hard to build."
Through this partnership, Concordia Texas 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 Tornados fans, alumni, and supporters, this partnership means more ways to show up for the athletes you love. Every purchase from the Concordia Texas collection directly supports student-athletes while keeping you connected to the program. Whether you're cheering from the stands or following from afar, wearing Concordia Texas Influxer merch is a direct investment in the next generation of Tornados talent.
