Scout will deliver end-to-end support, including cap management tools, revenue share distribution, and personalized financial guidance for student-athletes.
LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 29, 2025 -- University of Louisville student-athletes are set to begin a new journey to strengthen their financial futures through a partnership with Scout — a fast-growing company that combines athlete-focused technology with hands-on support. The comprehensive program, trusted by more than 30 athletic departments nationwide, includes one-on-one financial coaching, group literacy sessions, tax support, and access to Scout's mobile app for saving, budgeting, and investment planning.
In addition to athlete-facing resources, Scout provides Louisville Athletics with a full suite of customizable backend tools to support revenue share distribution and cap management. The platform offers a seamless, secure solution tailored to the needs of modern athletic departments. The partnership reflects a forward-thinking approach to the evolving NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) era — preparing athletes not just for today's opportunities, but for lifelong financial independence.
"Scout's ability to support both our department and our student-athletes is impressive," said UofL Vice President and Director of Athletics Josh Heird. "This partnership reinforces our commitment to preparing student-athletes for success beyond sports."
"Partnering with Scout is a strategic investment in our student-athletes and in the financial infrastructure of our department," added Nick Bowes, Louisville's Deputy Athletic Director/ Chief Financial Officer. "Scout's platform brings a level of transparency, security, and foresight that aligns perfectly with our institutional goals and the evolving collegiate athletics landscape."
"This relationship showcases Scout's full capabilities as a partner," said Michael Haddix, CEO and Founder of Scout. "From secure revenue distribution to long-term financial planning, we're providing athletes with a playbook for life. NIL, to us, means Name, Image… Lifetime."
