Does Ul Monroe’z General Booty Own an Underwear Line? How Does He Make the Most of His Name?

ULM is all set to go against their strongest opponent in the season so far, the Texas Longhorns, with the standout quarterback General Booty in the center stage. The former Oklahoma quarterback holds the ability to put everybody on the opponent’s side on notice by his insane speed or incredibly smart communication, but he needs to put on his best show on Saturday to tackle another rising star in the realm, Arch Manning.

Whether or not he can capitalize on his golden chance to embark on a higher trajectory onwards after a low-key presence in the season, the grass is greener on the other side. Booty has been leveraging his unique nametag all along. The deal even gets as weird as launching a whole underwear brand. But despite the fact that it makes you chuckle money and notoriety are all that matters. Let’s look at Booty’s brand deals!

General Booty carries some weight, and the player has a zero-compromise policy in taking all its benefits. During his tenure at Oklahoma, Booty rose to the headlines, penning a big-money NIL deal with “Rock Em Socks.” Booty has become the second student-athlete in the latter half of 2023 to sign with the company after the University of Central Florida’s placekicker, Colton Boomer.

His line of products comically includes underwear of two different varieties and socks. To chalk out the detail, the inner garments are red with the word ‘Booty’ engraved in capital letters. It’s quirky and attractive, nonetheless, and caught a lot of eyeballs in the company, well -justifying why General Booty is a marketing phenom.

Now, you might get your head jerked thinking how much of a business brain the 22-year-old is. You are not wrong, but the ULM sensation’s business acumen includes generosity and the zeal to make the world a better place. And that’s how he marked himself as distinct from the rest.

The Louisiana-Monroe asset also runs a General Booty official shop where he channels his urge to contribute to the greater cause. He donates 20% of the profits from the merchandise sold to the Oklahoma Children’s Hospital for their seamless treatment.

The name that does both monetary and humanitarian wonders at the same time, however, stems from his father’s unwavering wish.

The intriguing backstory of the ‘General’ Booty

The University of Louisiana-Monroe quarterback’s legal name is Maximus Axel Booty, whereas the General was just an imprint of her father’s unfulfilled military dream.

Abram had a stellar career as a Louisiana Wide Receiver and was mentally committed to the brave countrymen fighting their souls off in the front lines. However, he couldn’t join them physically and extended his support, the patristic sentiment channels through his son’s name.

Even before Booty was born, his dad decided the first name would be ‘General’ as a tribute to the army men. His wife, Amy Booty, an LSU alumna, found no reason to disagree on this.

However, the couple tried to limit their ideology by trying to call the child by his middle name initially, but Booty, after all, has the same genes as his father. He only responded to the General. The overwhelming parents accordingly took it as a sign of the newborn’s consent and made it official on pen and paper.
