圣母大学和俄亥俄州立大学在同一天宣布了两笔规模庞大的球衣补丁赞助协议,合计价值约3000万美元1。其中,俄亥俄州立大学与摩根大通达成多年赞助协议,年均约1700万美元1;圣母大学与SoFi科技公司签订协议,价值1800万至2000万美元1。

Notre Dame and Ohio State unveiled substantial jersey patch sponsorship agreements on the same day, marking a significant shift in how collegiate athletic programs monetize their uniforms.1 Ohio State secured a multi-year deal with JPMorgan Chase worth approximately $17 million annually, while Notre Dame reached an agreement with SoFi Technologies valued between $18 million and $20 million.1 The combined value of both transactions totals roughly $30 million.1
