‍March 24, 2025 — Today, Dropback (the 1st all-in-one ‘General Manager’ software for college sports) and EvanMiya CBB Analytics (advanced college basketball statistical data platform), announce a strategic partnership and integration to embed innovative scouting analytics and insights with the roster building tasks of the Post-House era.

‍

“This partnership is a game-changer for teams wanting to gain an edge through roster building,” said Evan Miyakawa, Founder of EvanMiya CBB Analytics. "To win in the modern portal era, you need to be several steps of your competition. Leveraging the extensive suite of player-evaluation metrics at EvanMiya.com together with Dropback’s cutting-edge GM platform will give our clients a massive advantage."

‍

Dropback’s ‘collegiate front office’ tech empowers General Managers and Personnel staff to translate their athlete evaluations into roster valuations ($)—managing their roster financially to secure top talent while optimizing usage of their NIL and Revenue Sharing budgets.

‍

“Pro sports spend millions to build critical front office software in-house—we want to democratize these tools for college sports, at a fraction of this cost,” says Nick Siscoe, CTO and Co-Founder of Dropback. “Integrations with cutting-edge insights, like EvanMiya CBB Analytics, further delivers this mission to our clients–and further innovates their rev-share era roster construction processes.”

‍

This collaboration connects Dropback users with EvanMiya’s powerful analytics–with real-time access to over 20+ datapoints and metrics, including player value projections through Bayesian Performance Rating (BPR) and a suite of individual skill grades, available for over 5,000 athletes. GMs can leverage these advanced insights within Dropback’s “Valuation Modeler” to build even richer custom, defensible athlete valuation formulas via program-specific data, metrics, baselines, and weights.
