Adelaide Halverson Becomes First Ever Barstool Sports Athlete

Well that didn’t take long. The NCAA enacted a new policy yesterday, which now allows all college athletes to profit off their name, image and likeness, and some big moves have already been made. Adelaide Halverson is a volleyball star at Jacksonville State.

Adelaide Halverson is now a member of the newly formed Barstool Athletes. Dave Portnoy made the announcement about Barstool’s first athlete signed.

Per Barstool’s tweets, there appears to be close to a dozen officially signed athletes and probably thousands  more tweeting out their interest to join.

Barstool Athletes Inc is the most barstool thing ever. No thought put into it. No clue what we were doing. And 2 hours later the most powerful student athlete organization in the country. Still no clue what’s happening. #fortheplayers #barstoolathlete
