Who We Are
Your Direct, Independent Advisors — No Agendas. No Politics. Just You.
At NSB Ă— Matrix, we work for one person: You.
We are not tied to any school, coach, collective, or corporate interest. We don’t take direction from sponsors, boosters, or behind-the-scenes power brokers. We serve as your independent advisor—bound only by our commitment to protect, guide, and advocate for your best interests.
This new world of recruiting and NIL isn’t just complex—it’s tortuous, filled with fine print, shifting rules, hidden agendas, and institutions that often prioritize themselves over the athlete.
Our mission? To make sure you never walk that path alone.
Whether it’s evaluating opportunities, navigating the transfer portal, or structuring NIL deals that are compliant, market-worthy, and built to last—we stand firmly on your side.
Not influenced. Not compromised. Not distracted.
You deserve more than generic advice.
You deserve someone who’s not just informed—but invested. You pay us to advise and represent you.
That’s NSB × Matrix. Unfiltered. Unshaken. Unapologetically working for You.
NSB Ă— Matrix: Elite Strategy. Trusted Advocacy. Unapologetically Working For You.
NSB × Matrix—founded and led by Principal & Senior Athlete Advisor A. Rod White—is the fusion of two powerful entities: the National Scouting Bureau (NSB) and Matrix Sports Management. Together, they form a groundbreaking alliance that empowers athletes at all levels through elite recruiting consultation, strategic branding, and trusted, independent representation.
With 600+ college placements, 22+ MLB Draft picks, and over $360 million in assets managed during White’s tenure in financial leadership, NSB × Matrix brings unmatched expertise to athletes and families navigating today’s complex recruiting, transfer, and NIL landscape.
What We Do
At NSB x Matrix, we specialize in guiding high school and transfer athletes across all sports—whether it’s baseball, football, basketball, or beyond—through the complexities of college recruitment, NIL opportunities, and professional opportunities. Our mission is to help student-athletes and their families make informed decisions, maximize their exposure, and align with programs where they can truly thrive on and off the field or court.
The New Recruiting Reality
College Placement
Strategic matching with the right program
Visibility
Get seen by the right coaches
Professional Marketing
Stand out in a competitive landscape
With major changes like NCAA roster caps in D1 Baseball, the House v. NCAA lawsuit, and the rollout of Direct Pay from schools to athletes, the landscape of college athletics is shifting rapidly. Programs are increasingly prioritizing transfer athletes, leaving high school prospects facing unprecedented competition and reduced opportunities. Coaches have limited scholarships, tighter rosters, and less time—they need confidence that recruits are not only talented, but also prepared, disciplined, and coach-verified.
Powered by The National Scouting Bureau (NSB)
Verified. Vetted. Valued. Scouting, Testing, and Promotion to Elevate Your Game
The National Scouting Bureau (NSB) is more than just a name - it's a trusted, multi-sport scouting and promotional engine built to evaluate, elevate, and expose real talent to decision-makers at the next level. Through this partnership, we ensure you're not just developing your skills, but being seen for them.
Each athlete we represent receives access to:
  • Verified Performance Testing - sport-specific data to showcase your abilities
  • Professional Video Capture - tailored for college coaches, pro scouts, and showcase directors
  • Independent Scouting Evaluations - using industry-standard tools and metrics
  • Targeted Recruiting Campaigns - actively marketing your story and film to key decision-makers
In today's sports landscape, skill alone isn't enough. You must also be seen, shared, and strategically positioned.
That's why we attend select games throughout the season - to scout, evaluate, and capture real-time highlights that become powerful tools for your recruiting portfolio. These moments are then professionally edited and promoted across our active social media platforms like @NSBScouting to create buzz, build visibility, and drive interest.
Your talent deserves more than a profile - it deserves a platform. We connect the dots between ability and awareness, because in today's game, strategy is currency.

🧠 Post-House NIL Strategy Services (New for 2025)
đź’ˇ Why Post-House NIL Strategy Services Matter
The NCAA's House Settlement has officially changed the game—ushering in a dual-income era where athletes can earn both direct pay from schools and outside NIL deals. But with new money comes new complexity.
NSB Ă— Matrix's Post-House NIL Strategy Services give athletes and families a competitive edge by decoding school revenue-sharing models, building powerful personal brands, and ensuring every NIL deal is compliant, market-justified, and built to last.
This isn't just recruiting anymore—it's financial strategy, brand development, and legal protection rolled into one.
If you're not factoring in how schools allocate their $20.5M, or whether your NIL potential is fully maximized, you're leaving real opportunity on the table.
đź“Š School Revenue Share Intelligence
We evaluate schools based on:
  • Whether they're allocating the full $20.5M
  • What percentage is going to your sport
  • Prioritization of incoming recruits
  • Title IX and gender equity impact
We help athletes choose schools based on earning potential—not just roster spots.
📸 Brand-Building & Market Readiness
Now that direct pay is in place, athletes still need:
  • A standout personal brand
  • Influencer-level social presence
  • A pro-level image aligned with brands and collectives
We make athletes marketable beyond the field.
đź’Ľ NIL Deal Structuring & Compliance
With new regulations:
  • All deals over $600 are reportable via NIL Go
  • Fair Market Value (FMV) must be justified to avoid audits
  • We vet, negotiate, and monitor all deals
We don't just find deals—we make sure they're legal, lasting, and lucrative.
