Introducing: Dropback for Basketball (Front Office Tech for College Sports)

March is here. And so is Dropback for College Basketball.

Dropback is pro-grade Front Office tech built for college sports. Since our 2024 public launch, Power 4 football programs have used Dropback’s customizable platform to value athletes, optimize spend, and maximize the off-the-field competitive edge: programs’ athlete compensation budgets (Rev-Share, NIL, Scholarships, Alston, etc.).

Today, we’re announcing our platform expansion into college basketball.

What does this mean?

  • Dropback partnered with NFL & NBA front office advisors to bring the fully-custom & advanced tech the pros use today, to the ‘collegiate front office’.
  • Now, college basketball GMs and DBOs can build their most competitive rosters against budget with Dropback’s tech—built from the ground-up for the new rev-share era.
  • From Prospect to Proposed Contract in minutes, Dropback helps teams create and monitor budgets, build data-driven cap strategies, and automate contracts & payroll.

Dropback is already trusted by top GM's—like Adrian Wojnarowski, Men’s Basketball GM at St. Bonaventure.

"With my familiarity on how NBA front offices operate, Dropback is exactly what I was looking for—tech to identify and build out efficient and impactful rosters with our budget. I’m convinced Dropback will be critical for how competitive basketball programs approach the coming rev-share era,” said Woj.

Dropback brings the tools trusted by NFL & NBA front offices, to the world of college sports, at a fraction of the cost. Woj, and other top college basketball GMs, gearing up for this offseason are leveraging Dropback to…

  • Build data-driven cap strategies:
    • Build-your-own ‘athlete valuation models’ powered by data sources you trust—like Synergy and Kenpom.
  • Find cost-efficient talent:
    • We partner with top data providers to apply your “Valuation Models” to 50,000+ prospects in seconds—across NCAA, NAIA, Grassroots, High School, and International.
  • Play Moneyball:
    • The Ultimate GM playground. Compare athlete values head-to-head, create unlimited depth charts & budget scenarios, build contracts & payment schedules… All while constructing your most competitive and cost-efficient team.
