Furman Athletics Thrives in the NIL and Transfer Portal Era
How the Furman experience gets student athletes to stay.

While big programs dominate the market with NIL deals and flashy transfers, smaller schools like Furman offer something that money cannot buy: a close-knit community, classroom-focused environment and much more that goes beyond the dollar signs.

“NIL, for us, I don’t think is gonna be a big thing at Furman long term, partly because the majority of the students are coming here for the academics and the athletics. It’s different, it’s unique,” said Furman Athletic Director Jason Donnelly.
