Prospex Launches Revolutionary NIL Game for Prospective College Athletes, Fans
Portland, Oregon – Collegiate athletes now have the right to market their name, image and likeness (NIL), sparking an entirely new and dynamic market for athletes, fans, and businesses. At the same time, current NIL strategies don’t offer most fans an easy way to participate in supporting sought-after athletic talent. Founded by former collegiate athletes, Prospex introduces an entirely new platform to engage fans directly and bring a new level of fairness and transparency to the world of NIL.
Partnering with On3, one of the nation’s leading sports media companies, Prospex is launching a new NIL platform, which allows passionate college sports fans to purchase, trade, and collect digital trading cards of their favorite prospective college athletes.
“Prospex has the potential to totally transform the way NIL works for college athletes – allowing everyday fans to show direct support to the athletes considering their school. Most importantly, it offers athletes an open, transparent way to assess and capture their true NIL value at the schools they are considering.” says Patricia Eiting, one of Prospex’ founders.
When an athlete signs with a school, their limited edition Prospex card will be minted into a physical or web3 collectible. For those going the digital route, Prospex is partnering with Sparq Games to create unique, animated 3D Motion capture NFTs. “We are excited for the opportunity to partner with Prospex and On3 to help athletes maximize their NIL opportunities. Engaging university fanbases is an untapped and essential part of the NIL ecosystem.” Mike Wagle – CEO Sparq Games
Prospex will launch with a group of highly-rated football athletes from the class of 2023, including 4 and 5 star recruits like Jurrion Dickey, Matayo Uiagalelei, Rodrick Pleasant, and Blake Nichelson. Each athlete can identify up to 10 schools in their decision process, and their marketplace page will feature limited edition digital trading cards associated with the colors of each school under consideration. Participating fans can buy these school-specific cards to show athletes the fans’ passion and support.

“We are excited to work with Prospex and believe in the long-term value here for high profile high school athletes,” said Shannon Terry, Founder and CEO of On3. “We just launched our On3 Athlete Network, which helps athletes to understand their NIL Valuation and help them capitalize on additional revenue opportunities and Prospex is an important part of that.”
When athletes commit to, and enroll at their respective schools, they will receive 85% of revenue from sales to fans of that school. Fans from other schools can trade in their athlete cards, get 90% of their money back and put it towards other cards on the Prospex marketplace to show support to other athletes considering their school, completely revolutionizing NIL and finally giving fans a voice in building their ultimate team.
“The problem with NIL right now is everyone is still trying to keep secret what athletes are actually worth. For me, it is huge to actually be able to see, out in the open, what my true value to fans really is. It’s the way NIL should work for everyone,” says Jurrion Dickey, a top wide receiver from Menlo-Atherton High School in Atherton, California.
