Frequently Asked Questions

RallyFuel combines performance (35%), estimated NIL value (20%), social media reach (20%), and in-platform fan demand (25%) into a single composite score from 0 to 100.

No. The NIL values shown are RallyFuel's internal estimates based on publicly available data, market benchmarks, and comparable deals.

During the season, the Naismith NIL leaderboard is updated weekly after each slate of games.

All NCAA Division I basketball players with active profiles on RallyFuel are eligible. Rankings consider players at all positions who demonstrate exceptional performance.

While our rankings correlate with Naismith voting trends, they incorporate NIL factors that official voters don't consider. Think of it as a parallel measure of player impact.
