Runners United is UTSA’s comprehensive Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) and Revenue Share initiative. It serves as the central platform through which UTSA student-athletes can earn compensation through both traditional NIL activities and the emerging revenue-sharing model. An NIL activity occurs when a student-athlete is compensated for the use of their name, image, and/or likeness, including endorsements, appearances, and promotions. In addition, under the Revenue Share component, student-athletes may receive direct financial benefits tied to UTSA Athletics’ generated revenues in accordance with NCAA guidelines and institutional policy.

Runners United enables UTSA student-athletes to partner with businesses, individuals, and UTSA Athletics itself for NIL opportunities while also participating in a structured, compliant revenue-sharing program that supports both player acquisition and player retention.
