"This partnership with Nike, serviced through BSN, represents a long over-due connection between the greatest tradition in the history of the OVC with the highest-quality and most recognizable brand in sports apparel. More importantly, the agreement represents a true partnership, amongst all three parties, as it relates to both academic and athletic success. I would like to thank our on-campus committee for their work and welcome both BSN and Nike into the Racer family."
Â
"We are excited to partner with the Murray State University & Nike in elevating the performance and impact of their athletic programs," said Todd Northrop, Vice President of BSN Collegiate Select. "This strategic partnership provides the finest apparel and athletic products to the benefit of each student-athlete representing the Racers and we are pleased that we can elevate their experience."

As a result of a new five-year agreement, BSN will be the exclusive service provider for athletic equipment, practice and competition gear; while all sports programs will be outfitted with Nike competitive gear. The agreement maximizes department buying power through strategic consolidation of annual purchases, enhances global marketing and promotional opportunities and provides numerous incentives, rebates, discounts and awards for both competitive and academic achievements.
