STAUNTON — Calen Dexter has always been a college football fan, cheering for Virginia Tech most of his life. Not too long ago, he read about someone in Blacksburg who was running an NIL collective and he was intrigued. NIL stands for name, image, likeness and refers to a way college athletes can receive compensation. The NCAA approved athletes profiting off of their NILs in July 2021. An NIL collective is a pool of funds from many donors that create a source of money for those athletes to profit.
