247Sports and the adidas Polynesian Bowl have been intertwined since the prestigious game’s inception more than a decade ago, providing wall-to-wall coverage from Hawaii during every rendition of the star-studded showcase.
That longstanding partnership is expanding to new heights.
A new multi-year agreement makes 247Sports the exclusive digital media partner of the adidas Polynesian Bowl. 247Sports, the industry leader in college football recruiting coverage and rankings, and the adidas Polynesian Bowl, which consistently features the next wave of football superstars, share a unified vision to continue elevating what has already become the premier event in the postseason circuit.
Every adidas Polynesian Bowl week kicks off with a player check-in session in the heart of Waikiki Beach, and 247Sports will have unparalleled access as players arrive at the team hotel. Deep-dive player interviews, an increased social media presence, and new components will provide fans with even more insight on their team’s future difference makers.
From an evaluation perspective, four practices during the week set the stage for participants to possibly rise and adjustments to be made as the rankings team seals the book on the final release for the respective class, while also peering ahead to several elite participants that will be major protagonists of the next cycle.
Earlier this offseason, 247Sports was on hand for the three-day adidas Polynesian Bowl National Combine and Showcase in Las Vegas, and outlined a thorough, position-by-position list of top performers.
That presence at the combine and showcase events will continue as the 247Sports scouting team, led by Director of Scouting Andrew Ivins, search for possible invites to the all-star game. Ivins and national scouting analyst Hudson Standish are two new additions to the adidas Polynesian Bowl selection committee.
247Sports has seen the rise of the game since the inaugural 2017 edition, and the trajectory for the adidas Polynesian Bowl has never been steeper.
