From standout player at Radford University to one of the leading voices in NIL education, recruiting, and athlete development, Aisha Foy is showing student-athletes how to win beyond the box score.
In this episode of SportsLifeTalk’s You Got Next, Aisha shares her remarkable journey — from growing up in Virginia Beach with hoop dreams, to earning All-Big South honors at Radford, to stepping into leadership roles that now influence thousands of athletes and families across the country.
She breaks down what NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) really means, and why it’s not just about superstar players or money:
Her mantra: “True NIL is about using your platform to amplify your life.”
Why any athlete — not just five-stars — can create NIL opportunities through branding and community impact.
The importance of parents letting their kids face challenges before they reach college.
Why building a following, being consistent, and owning your story is key to long-term success.
We also dive into her 2021 book, Success is My Major, a guide to balancing college life, sports, and personal growth, and how it’s helping young athletes create their own blueprint for success.
Looking ahead, Aisha’s vision is bold: becoming the first women’s basketball GM, hosting masterclasses for parents, and continuing to mentor the next generation of athletes through NIL education and recruiting.
🎙 Tap in now to hear how Aisha Foy is changing the NIL conversation, building success stories across the country, and why her mission is bigger than basketball.
