DEC. 1 2023 UPDATE: The Teal Collective announced via social media that it would close at the end of the year. "We have been working with the university the past few months to find a suitable replacement; however, to date nothing has materialized,” The Teal Collective announced via X. “As of today, all subscriptions have been canceled and there will be no further donations accepted. We appreciate your support of Coastal Football and The Teal Collective over the past two seasons!” PREVIOUS INFORMATION: The Teal Collective's Twitter account was created in August 2022. The collective's website says it "provides businesses with exclusive access to, experiences with, and advertising opportunities with their favorite athletes while allowing the athletes to earn compensation for their name, image and likeness." The Teal Collective says the athletes with whom it partners will provide interviews, meet and greets, merchandise signings, personalized videos, online Q&As and more. The Teal Collective hosted its first "Meet the Chants" event in October 2022 at Patio's Tiki Bar & Grill, where three Coastal Carolina players attended, posed for pictures and signed autographs. The Teal Collective's website lists monthly memberships that cost $10, $25 and $50.
