Olivia Dunne gets a NIL offer for her teammate!
LSU gymnast and social media sensation Olivia Dunne, through her “Livvy Fund,” has entered into a groundbreaking partnership with Accelerator Active Energy. The collaboration, which was announced on Tuesday, is set to give a unique NIL offer to some of his gymnast teammates.
LSU Tigers Benefit From Livvy Fund
Breaking new ground, Accelerator Active Energy became the first brand to implement a NIL offering through the Livvy Fund. This pioneering move appoints eight LSU gymnasts as ambassadors for the energy drink company.
Bayou Traditions, in collaboration with Accelerator, developed criteria for the selection of certain gymnasts in the collective.
The eight gymnasts selected include Konnor McClain, Ashley Cowan, Kiya Johnson, Jillian Hoffman, KJ Johnson, Chase Brock, Haleigh Bryant, and Sierra Ballard.
Olivia Dunne Helping Fellow Athletes
Launching in July 2023, the Livvy Fund aims to facilitate connections between female student-athletes at LSU and leading brands, allowing them to secure their own NIL deals. Currently, no female student-athlete is more appreciated than Dunne, who is also this year’s SI Swimsuit model.
“I’ve been fortunate enough to have all these different opportunities with NIL and have experience because it can be very foreign to other athletes at the beginning,” Dunne said during an interview with People. “So, I just want to help other women and give them the opportunity to learn and get more NIL deals because they deserve it just as much as I do.”
Olivia Dunne Is Worth Over $2 Million!
As of July, Dunne’s net worth reached an estimated $3.5 million, according to the On3 NIL 100 list. Following the NCAA’s approval of a new Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) policy in July 2021, allowing student-athletes to accept sponsorship offers, she emerged as the highest-paid NCAA female athlete .
The brand noted that Dunne, with NIL deals featuring American Eagle and Motorola, chose gymnastics as the initial LSU women’s sport to benefit from the partnership during her senior year at the university.
Giving Back To LSU
MEGADunne emphasized that LSU has been very supportive in navigating NIL opportunities since the rule change. He mentioned the university’s specialized department that assists student-athletes in managing their NIL offers.
“They’ve just been supportive, so I thought I’d give back to a school and program that has helped me so much,” Dunne said of his experience at LSU.
Earlier this year, Dunne formed a partnership with Accelerator Active Energy, joining a lineup of brand ambassadors that includes Travis Kelce, Aaron Judge, Jalen Hurts and other notables.

Heading into his senior year at LSU, Dunne expressed his hopes for the upcoming season and focused on “competing” with an important objective in mind: “Win the National Championship.”
Dunne explained, “It’s never been done at LSU before. It’s unprecedented territory for LSU gymnastics,” adding, “I’m really excited for the final round and hopefully make it the best one yet.”
