Providence’s Ticket Gaines Signs StubHub NIL Agreement.
Friars Guard announces NIL agreement with a ticket exchange and resale organization.
Ticket Gaines, a Providence Friars guard, will be attempting to compete in the March Madness tournament. With the pick on Sunday, Providence is seen as a bubble club, potentially ending their season after falling to Marquette in the Big East Tournament.
Gaines is enjoying his week regardless of what happens.
The University of Tennessee and George Mason product has joined StubHub as a partner, which comes at an ideal time as the NCAA Tournament begins next week.
Ticket, maybe the finest name in college sports, announced the collaboration on X.
“I’m not sure if you saw StubHub @ me on X last night, but I believe it’s time they discovered me.
“I’m excited to announce that we will be working together. I’m an official StubHub ticket partner. We’re gonna work together on some cool giveaways and some cool promotions. So, stay tuned.”
It’s surprising this deal took so long given the easy name for StubHub to capitalize on. For Gaines, it’s the perfect NIL deal for the fifth-year senior.
Gaines has enjoyed success in his college career, averaging 10.2 points in the 2021-22 season for George Mason. In his one season with Providence, the 6’7” Buffalo, New York native has played 32.7 minutes per game and has started 34 games.
While partnering with StubHub is an awesome NIL deal and even better given his name, Gaines has one thing on his mind, which is making the NCAA Tournament.
Did Providence do enough in the regular season to justify that?
The world will find out on Selection Sunday.
