## Method

A school is listed when its public athletics website, a vendor partner page, a job posting or a staff title references the vendor with at least medium confidence. Detection is automated and re-run as directories refresh: absence means not detected, not not used, and contracts change, so confirm with the department before relying on a single listing.

## Frequently asked questions

**How many colleges use Learfield?**

159 of the 1,098 NCAA athletic departments Whistle covers (14%) as of 27 Oct 2026.

**Which Division I schools use Learfield?**

Abilene Christian University, Arkansas State University, Boise State University, Bowling Green State University, Bradley University, Brown University, Bucknell University, Cal State-Northridge, California Polytechnic State University, California State University, Bakersfield, Colorado State University, Davidson College, Drake University, Drexel University, Duke University, and 126 more listed above.

**How does Whistle know a school uses Learfield?**

From vendor-specific links and markup on the department's own website (ticket, schedule and roster pages), vendor partner lists, job postings and staff titles. Only medium- or high-confidence matches are shown.

**Where does this technology data come from?**

From the staff directories athletic departments publish on their official websites, read automatically on a rolling schedule (NCAA Division I roughly weekly, Division II and III every three to four weeks). Whistle never publishes names, emails or phone numbers on public pages; staff can remove their details at any time at [gowhistle.io/remove-my-info](https://gowhistle.io/remove-my-info).

Selling against Learfield, or integrating with it? [Whistle](https://gowhistle.io/pricing) gives you the current multimedia rights contacts at each of these schools, and tells you the moment someone new takes over.
