Kate Scott, play by play announcer for the Philadelphia 76ers

KATE SCOTT, 76ers Play-by-Play announcer

“Just wanted to say a heartfelt THANK YOU for all of your help preparing for and calling my first Olympics! There is absolutely no way I could have done that without you and your team, so thank you for rolling with all of my asks and momentary freak outs! I’m so grateful for all of your hard work and look forward to us working together for years to come.”

TIM BRANDO, FOX Sports Play-by-Play Announcer

“There’s no substitute for preparation in our business, and I had always enjoyed doing it all myself. But STAT Factor has me prepared before I’m ever on campus, before I’ve yet to meet a coach or an athlete!”

JOE DAVIS, Los Angeles Dodgers & FOX Sports Play-by-Play Announcer

“One of the things I love about STAT Factor is their willingness to tailor their services to your needs. For me, they take hours of busy work off my hands and helped make my preparation much more efficient, which has helped make me a better broadcaster.”

LISA BYINGTON, Milwaukee Bucks and FOX Play-by-Play Announcer

“I’ve always been the kind of announcer who does the research myself (because I actually enjoy it) plus, I’m not used to having people do work for me. But I’ve found a happy medium with STAT Factor I’m not the kind of broadcaster who is going to use them for every game I do, but I have found a place for them. So when they claim to cater to your wants and needs… they mean it. I have found a way for them to complement my work habits – whether it be supplemental information on particular players or teams, going big-picture with research about an unfamiliar conference, or digging into an unfamiliar sport … there is a place for STAT Factor in your broadcast lives, and yes, a place for even the stubborn, over-preparer like me.”

MARQUES JOHNSON, Milwaukee Bucks Analyst

“STAT Factor has become an integral part of my game preparation. Their reports are individually tailored to provide the type of information that helps to enhance my work as a basketball analyst. They have seamlessly embraced the world of advanced analytics, providing the level of insightful dissemination of information the ever evolving listener expects. STAT Factor reports make my job easier, and a lot more interesting.”

BILL MACDONALD, Los Angeles Lakers Play-by-Play Announcer

“Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls…if you’ve got a game to do, these are your guys!!!! Absolute lifesavers. (Yes, they made me say this, but it’s true!! Haha). Great stuff EVERY time. Trust me, you won’t regret it!”

SPERO DEDES, NBA on TNT & CBS Play-by-Play Announcer

“What sets STAT Factor apart is their ability and willingness to customize my spotting boards based on exactly what I’m looking for. Whether it’s heavy into the stats one night or personal interest stories on another, Jeff Chapman and his talented group of researchers always deliver what I need. Their service is second-to-none.”

BOB FITZGERALD, Golden State Warriors Play-by-Play Announcer

“I have known Jeff Chapman for over 20 years; I am certain that I have not met a broadcast associate who has ever been more prepared for a broadcast. With 25 years in the NBA, 18 in the NFL and college football, 20 years of arena football and 4 Summer Olympic assignments, I have prepped for thousands of broadcasts. The use of STAT Factor has greatly improved my ability to stay on top of everything going on with all the teams, and I have also been able to tailor the reports to include items that I find interesting for given opponents. I know I speak for the entire World Champion Golden State Warriors broadcast crew in giving STAT Factor the absolute seal of approval. I highly recommend them.”

PETE PRANICA, Memphis Grizzlies TV Play-by-Play, Fox Sports Southeast and SEC Network

“Deciding to work with STAT Factor is one of my best broadcasting decisions. In today’s world, there are so many data points that an announcer can easily get overwhelmed and sidetracked. I still do a lot of my own NBA research, but having STAT Factor create a report that illustrates a team’s strengths and weaknesses via advanced stats has allowed me to do a more thorough job of informing the audience about what we will likely see during a game. In addition, STAT Factor will tackle whatever sport you may be calling with thorough professionalism and pitch-perfect customization. They listen to what you want or need from a report and they deliver a consistently outstanding product.”

KEVIN RAY, Phoenix Suns TV Play-by-Play, Dallas Cowboys National Radio Play-by-Play Announcer

“I’ve always been a proponent of doing my own game prep, but I’ve also recognized the need to work smarter, not harder and STAT Factor allows me to do just that. They work with you to help create the exact type of report you need and want and are always willing to make adjustments on the fly. If you’re looking to add to and enhance your game prep I would highly recommend giving the people at STAT Factor a try.“

MATT UNDERWOOD, Cleveland Guardians Play-by-Play Announcer

“Statistics are meaningless without proper context. STAT Factor gives you numbers with current relevance as well as historical perspective. Plus they customize reports for YOUR game. They are tremendous teammates!”

JEFF BRANTLEY, Cincinnati Reds Analyst

“I have really been quite impressed by the information STAT Factor has provided me. The little inside personal notes on players, great statistical data, and the frequent updates provided during each series have been very beneficial to me during the broadcasts, whether I’m on TV or radio. Thank you STAT Factor for your attention to detail, and I believe ANY broadcast would benefit by using the information you provide. You guys are always spot-on and you’ve raised the bar for any stat service!!”

AARON GOLDSMITH, Seattle Mariners & FOX Play-by-Play Announcer

“STAT Factor has been a tremendous help to me for both local and national MLB telecasts. The information is accurate, concise, tailored for broadcast purposes and always delivered on time. It’s nice knowing that they care as much about the quality of the broadcast as I do.”

STEVE NOVAK, Milwaukee Bucks studio host/TV commentator

“As a color commentator, I can’t stay up to date on every team. STAT Factor allows me to have a clear and concise snapshot of the highlights and important information up to the day of my games. STAT Factor was a part of every game that I did this season.”

BOB RATHBUN, Atlanta Hawks Play-by-Play Announcer

“I’ve used STAT Factor for several years now, and am a VERY satisfied customer! With my schedule, sometimes I get caught with five or six games a week in the heat of basketball season. I can trust the STAT Factor guys to be there for me. I never have to worry about the time crunch or wayward travel. Like all great point guards, they deliver on-time and on-target.”

JON SUNDVOLD, ESPN College Basketball Analyst

“I have come to rely on STAT Factor as a partner in doing preparation for my games. As many irons as I have in the fire of life it has been invaluable to have Jeff Chapman, and his group, as a source for my work for the next game on my schedule. Not only do they have what I am looking for currently – information, details, stats – but also in-depth historical facts provide me another layer for my game. STAT Factor has been a great addition to my own work for my broadcasts and those that utilize their services are better served.”

BARRY TOMPKINS, Play-by-Play Announcer

“I have been working with Jeff Chapman for more than 25 years and always referred to him as my ‘broadcast brains.’ He gave the broadcast the added element that very few in the industry could do. The kind of information I’ve always looked for in a broadcast is what might not be in the graphics on the screen, but rather complements them. That’s what STAT Factor provides.”

MIKE YAM, NFL Network Studio Host

“STAT Factor serves as an unbelievable supplement to my own research. They were able to help me out in a jam with a late assignment in a sport I typically don’t cover. The team gave me exactly what I needed and they did it ahead of schedule. I appreciate how much pride STAT Factor takes in their work.”

GARY APPLE, NY Mets studio host & UConn Men’s Basketball TV Play-by-Play for SNY

“Both in the studio and when calling a game the STAT Factor team provides invaluable support which I have come to rely on. The information they deliver is always timely no matter how quick the turnaround. They are also so great in working together to customize boards and charts. So happy I was introduced to Jeff Chapman, and look forward to working together for many years to come.”

TARIK TURNER, FOX Sports College Basketball Analyst

“STAT Factor has been invaluable in helping me prep for games, extremely detailed and efficient while allowing me to use key info during my broadcasts. One of the things I like best is the format with key bullet points on personnel, stats and player background that makes it easy to follow. The time STAT Factor saves me is well worth the price and allows me to focus on other aspects of preparation for upcoming games. I will definitely refer STAT Factor to anyone I come across in the broadcasting business.”

PAUL BIANCARDI, National Director of Recruiting and ESPN College Basketball Analyst

“I have used STAT Factor and have found them to be extremely professional and detailed. They tailor their work to your needs. It’s done in a timely manner and they always make themselves accessible. I highly recommend their services.”

STEVE BUCKHANTZ, Play-by-Play Announcer and Analyst

“If you go way back as an announcer, you no doubt have hundreds of multi colored poster board with hand written rosters, I know I do. STAT Factor saved me from myself and absolutely added years to my life. A combination of my own research and theirs makes for a much more complete, informative and entertaining broadcast. They are extremely conscientious and will work hand in hand to develop a board with info strictly suited to your taste. Invaluable stuff for any pxp/analyst.”

LEN ELMORE, FOX College Basketball Analyst

“When I need statistical and other information assists in preparing for my broadcasts, I rely on STAT Factor and their team of professionals who custom tailor the data I need. It’s a lay-up. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.”

JIM WATSON, Pac-12 Network Play-by-Play Announcer

“We’ve all been there. Always searching for more work and then all of sudden you have more than you can handle. STAT Factor has been there to save the day multiple times for me. Like most of you, I work a wide variety of events and these guys have never let me down. Professional, polished, well-researched notes arrive with ample time to review and allow me to travel, rest and spend time with my family. Everybody’s happy … except for my wife who tells me to go get more! STAT Factor is the ultimate relief pitcher for our business.”
