## Opendorse vs other nil vendors

| Vendor | NCAA schools | Share |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| [INFLCR](https://gowhistle.io/technology/inflcr) | 99 | 9% |
| **Opendorse** | 84 | 8% |

## 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 Opendorse?**

84 of the 1,098 NCAA athletic departments Whistle covers (8%) as of 27 Oct 2026.

**Which Division I schools use Opendorse?**

Binghamton University, Bryant University, Butler University, California State University, Fullerton, Colorado State University, Columbia University, Creighton University, Eastern Washington University, Elon University, Florida Atlantic University, Georgia Southern University, Grand Canyon University, Howard University, Iona University, Jackson State University, and 36 more listed above.

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

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