In a headline that’s rewriting the playbook on NIL power, Ole Miss Rebels star athlete Niko Bundalo has just signed a jaw-dropping $45 million endorsement deal with Powerade, setting a new standard for collegiate athlete partnerships.
But it’s not just the numbers that have stunned fans—it’s what Bundalo is doing with it. In a heartfelt move that speaks volumes about his character and long-term vision, Bundalo is donating $18 million directly to the Ole Miss athletic program and pledging $4.8 million to a local orphanage that helped shape his early life.
The deal, brokered after months of speculation, places Bundalo among the highest-paid college athletes in history. Sources close to Powerade say the brand sees him as “the face of the future”—a rare mix of talent, integrity, and national appeal.
“This is bigger than me. It’s about impact, legacy, and lifting up the places that raised me,” Bundalo said during a surprise press conference in Oxford, standing beside Powerade execs and Ole Miss coaches.
Already a fan-favorite for his dominant play and leadership on the court, Bundalo now cements himself as a legend off it—earning praise from sports media, former pros, and community leaders alike.
The ripple effect is immediate: recruits are watching, sponsors are circling, and Ole Miss is officially on the map in a whole new way.
Bundalo didn’t just cash in—he cashed out for a cause. This isn’t just a deal. It’s a legacy.
