FSU collective The Battle's End singled out as one of 'most ambitious' in NIL space
Although it is among the newest on the national scene, Florida State-focused NIL collective The Battle’s End is now being recognized as one of the leaders in that space.
According to analysis from On3, The Battle’s End checks in at No. 6 on its list of the 20 “most ambitious” collectives in college sports entering Year 3 of the NIL era.
The Battle’s End announced its launch last December with a primary focus on retention for the Florida State football team entering the 2023 season. Within days of its launch, the group announced it has signed deals with quarterback Jordan Travis and several other high-profile players.
