Who We Represent

Built for the talent
the market underserves.

01
Athletics and NIL

Athletes & NIL Strategy

College athletes navigating NIL represented by people who have worked inside athletic programs at Alabama State and Bethune Cookman. We build the brand strategy before the conversation with sponsors, not after. From HBCU programs to Division I platforms.

Coaches & Athletic Leadership

Coaches at every level represented through career transitions, position searches, and long-term career architecture. We have sat inside football program operations. We understand what athletic directors are evaluating and what coaches need on the other side of that conversation.

The 9th and Lee Difference

We have been
in the room.
That changes
everything.

Most talent agencies represent fields they have researched. We represent fields we have worked in. That experience changes the questions we ask, the deals we structure, and the outcomes we deliver.

Start the Conversation

HBCU Athletics Background

Time inside Alabama State and Bethune Cookman football programs gives us a genuine understanding of how athletic organizations evaluate talent, build rosters, and make career decisions. We are not outsiders to this world.

Brand Partnership Expertise

We have managed brand partnerships and community relationships across multiple industries. When we negotiate for a creator or athlete, we understand what brands actually want and what a fair deal structure looks like from both sides.

Recruitment Intelligence

Years of professional recruiting experience means we understand how organizations evaluate and decide. When we represent a coach in a search, we know how the hiring committee thinks before the first conversation happens.

The Network Is Real

Our relationships in ABA, education, healthcare, sports, and entertainment are built from years of working inside these industries. When we make an introduction, it means something because we have earned the credibility behind it.
