A typical post picks up 107 interactions against 1.8M followers, an engagement rate of 0.006%. Measured over 49 original posts, its engagement rate beats 38% of 3,899 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 121K times each, and 0.088% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 6.71% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 6.8 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 77% of days. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 49 posts sampled, 31% carry an image or video and 43% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 1.6K interactions, about 15x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #ncaa, #nil.

Compared with accounts its own size

Jay Bilas's engagement rate beats 38% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,899 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.

On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 7% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Where this sits in the catalog

At 0.006%, Jay Bilas sits above the 10th percentile of the 37,582 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.012%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 37,582 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 105,409 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 13:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked.

    One member of NCAA tournament selection committee to @TheFieldOf68: “The NCAA may not be able to threaten teams that use players deemed ineligible by the NCAA, but I can penalize them and so can other committee members if they want, whether it’s by seeding or even not including them in the field.”

    Statement from attorney Ryan Downton: “The SEC’s actions put the NCAA in contempt of multiple court orders. It is cartel-like conduct when NCAA conferences attempt to create their own spur of the moment rules in response to Courts enjoining those same rules at the NCAA level.”

    It's a shame the NCAA is so stubborn. Recognize your wrongs and give the Class of 2022 an extra year of eligibility like everyone else. Save all that money spent on lawyers. Put it to better use, like improving the health, safety, and welfare of college athletes.

    Darren Heitner, representing TE Dae'Quan Wright who was/is expected to soon sign with LSU, believes that the language in the Louisiana injunction provides a “colorable argument” to cover conference-wide policies as well. Wright's reps are “figuring out” next steps in realtime.

What is Jay Bilas's engagement rate on X?
Jay Bilas (@JayBilas) has an engagement rate of 0.006%, based on the median interactions across 49 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,799,775 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.006%, Jay Bilas sits above the 10th percentile of the 37,582 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
Does @JayBilas have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 38% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,899 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
When does @JayBilas post?
Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 6.8 posts per day across the measured window.
