Eric Dickinson the hat man got 2 stars in cwl

Jack H. that hairline…

Timothy Kain Seems like a wonderful choice. May GOD guide him and his decisions.

Luke Griffith Crockett doodles

Timothy Kain Sense of humor….check

Bigcat23 Why the 5 years tho?

James Bussard A pastor should not be allowed to be the President of a college. Either the church will suffer, or the college will. Or both. This is pure ambition, and poor discernment.

Jessica Nowachek He seemed like a good pastor when I visited morningside.

Jack H. no shot triple sticks didn't have a say in this

Bigcat23 What if he mess this thing more than it is already

Josh Watts Music Bussard I'm afraid I have to agree

Bigcat23 Would he still be a pastor though?

Holly Shiveley He was a student when I was a grad student teaching speech. His name sounded familiar. It's possible I taught him😄

Josh Watts Music good question

John Juan @James Bussard - I'm 99% sure he will no longer pastor Morningside Baptist.

Anthony Lehn Triple sticks ftw

Timothy Kain A coach needs time to build. It Should keep pharisaical thugs at bay for awhile.

Eric Dickinson hat man was supposed to go for 4 but went for 1 and got 2 stars.

Mackenzie Mohnacky I believe that he will do a great job. He's been my pastor for the last three years, and I believe that God is going to do great things through him.

Sven Loeffler the prez is to by ordained

Tobe Witmer Josh C. is a good compromise. Good guy Academic.

Jack H. this look like the battle pass

Jonathan Washburn Bragging about getting all of your degrees from one school isn't the W he thinks it is.

Timothy Kain Great connections to money and sustenance.

Tobe Witmer Not All his degrees. “Most”

Anthony Lehn Well, it's a couple more degrees than you have Jonathan Washburn

Camille Lewis The students are not going to be won with this.

Bill Alger this could have been an email, but I'm glad it wasn't.

Timothy Kain Well I'm off to collect my winnings. 😂

James Bussard If he does abandon the pastorate (and the people of Morningside), did God suddenly change His mind about the man's "calling"? God doesn't do that. Not this way. Again…smacks of ambition and flesh.

Tobe Witmer Wrong Camille. As normal

Wesley Boudreau well it must be Gods will because nothing happens that isn't

Sven Loeffler true

Mackenzie Mohnacky Amen, Wesley

Jack H. 15th professor is a goober

Andrew Black Proverbs 10:19 " In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips is wise."

Camille Lewis You like this, Matt? really?

Jonathan Washburn Josh and his brother were decent hoopers in high school. I'll never forget watching Eric Newton drop like 50+ in the state semifinal in a raucous crowd against the best team in the state.

Camille Lewis And how do I become your fixation even here?

Michael Ball Who is the new president?

Aurum wish Camille could be blocked from this

Camille Lewis Bless you all.

Jack H. fake news huh? ok goober

Camille Lewis This is not a good acceptance speech, friends.

The15thProfessor yeah fake news

Jack H. 15th i'm in your walls

The15thProfessor Now I know who you are

Jack H. do you now

CurlyFries ‍

Charlie Eldred Text is on unity; chat dissolves into anything but

Cor Frost Caleb its not fake lol

Jonathan Washburn Is that you Jack Hyles?

D.o.G. Man, I hope I'm dead meat if this is as good as it gets. sorry I am well below my standards

Camille Lewis Who remembers the stuffed bear in his Dad's living room? It was a scream. [This is what got me put in timeout? A taxidermy memory?]

Adrian Stargazer guys, stop arguing in the presidential announcement

Matthew Leys Praying for a strong future for BJU and that God would put to silence the scorners.

Jonathan Washburn Josh's younger brother Luke is among the kindest people I've ever met. He also scored the game winning goal against us in the 2003 State Semi-final and it still hurts.

Tobe Witmer Pettit! Way to go Josh!

Cor Frost rip

Anthony Lehn Thanks for the history lesson Jonathan Washburn smh

Isaac Balardelle chat is this real

Wesley Boudreau no

Jack H. 15th i'm right behind you

Eric Dickinson beta gamma won 7 turkey bowls in a row

Jonathan Washburn @Anthony Lehn Sigma 72, Beta 70

Stephen Burch Praying for BJU and President Crockett!

Ben Waters Chi Delta 4Ever!

Jonathan Washburn Stay classy Chi Delt! @Ben Waters

Eric Dickinson wil the new president take care of the turkey bowl alpha won with an ineligible player. the last president refused to comment

Camille Lewis This is gonna be a rough transition. [I couldn't post this because I was in timeout.]

Wesley Boudreau XEΔ

Aurum bruh

Jacob Vanaman @Jonathan Washburn - that one win was a claim to fame for the Sigma Spartans…but after a while that trophy got heavy.

Anthony Lehn 1 loss in basketball in four year

PofE Plays wesley imagine being a wolf smh my head

Jacob Vanaman @Anthony Lehn - wins fa' dayz

Quin Machado why wasnt the turkey bowl fiasco of 2023 the number one concern addressed?

Jack H. 15th you have no idea who I am but I know everything about you

Anthony Lehn Hey coach @Jacob Vanaman !

Bigcat23 Wolves are among the weirdest people on campus

PofE Plays lol thats what 15th hates more than anything

Wesley Boudreau @Bigcat23 no you

The15thProfessor why do i have such a reputation

Jacob Vanaman @Anthony Lehn - good to hear from you buddy!

PofE Plays 100 bigcat

James Bussard I investigated Morningside for my daughter to attend while at BJU. It falls short in many ways, when compared against Scripture. Sadly, plastic Christianity may continue to abound at BJU.

Efan Bob jones lost so much aura

Kamalei Goff chat, is this real?

PofE Plays ok camille alt

Bigcat23 Wesley Boudreau is among the weirdest guys on campus, playing Minecraft all the time

Anthony Lehn Can't help but inch closer to the door

Undrafted free agent signings 2017: Every team’s pickups in one place

Is the next Tony Romo waiting in this year’s crop of undrafted players?

The 2017 NFL Draft may be over, but that doesn’t mean teams are done adding important contributors for the upcoming season. Scores of NCAA athletes will start the next chapters of their football careers by signing as undrafted free agents.

The class of 2017 could also produce some memorable contributors. College standouts like Jarron Jones and Hardy Nickerson Jr. should all draw plenty of interest this spring. Though they’ll face long odds to make an NFL roster, the path they’ll walk is far from uncharted territory.

There’s a laundry list of players who have emerged from the embers of the draft to make a major impact in the NFL. All-Pros like Wes Welker, Priest Holmes, Kurt Warner, Antonio Gates, John Randle, James Harrison, Jessie Tuggle, and Tony Romo all took the long way to the league. They turned out to be unexpected boons who didn’t cost a cent in draft currency.

50 Social Media Marketing Influencers to Follow in 2017 #SMMW17

The topic of Social Media Influence has really taken off since we first published this list.

Many changes have happened in the social media marketing world ranging from the surprisingly close competition between SnapChat and Instagram stories to the acquisition of LinkedIn by Microsoft to the explosive growth of “creators” and micro-influencers.

On top of all that is the growth of the influencer marketing industry from platforms to brandividuals that use social media to create, publish, promote and engage communities. Where is it all leading? Who is on the front lines and in the captain’s chair when it comes to making sense of social media marketing for brands big and small?

To help point our readers, attendees of SMMW17 and the industry in the right direction, I’ve put together a list of 50 relevant voices in the social media marketing world for you to consider. These voices range from business leaders to real-time video experts to bloggers, podcasters and YouTubers. Putting this list together was a combination of art (experience + subjective bias) and science (big ass data).

Allow me to explain the methodology:

Art: Criteria for consideration in this list is having been named as a speaker for the SMMW17 conference. Therefore, this is NOT a comprehensive industry list – but a ranked collection of SMMW17 speakers. Mike Stelzner and Phil Mershon of Social Media Examiner do an amazing job of hand picking speakers for this conference and the human element to any such list of influencers is essential.

Science: Ranking of the individuals in this list leverages data from our friends at the influencer relationship management platform, Traackr. I think it’s useful to point out that unlike the vast majority of lists like this that are published online, this list and Traackr consider many more data sources than just Twitter.

Monitoring data sources: For each person in the database, there is potential for citations and links from data sources that include: blogs, publications, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Instagram, Pinterest, and Google+.

Ranking data sources and scoring: For the ranking, Traackr leverages a combination of data points including

Relevance – A score that indicates how influential a person is to a specific topic��based on the keywords you provide. Signals for relevance include keyword mentions, keyword diversity, content production rate, freshness of content and other contextual measures. In this case, it was “social media marketing” as well as 10+ derivative phrases.

Resonance – A score of how impactful the influencer is with their audience. Resonance measures engagement activity that occurs as a result of publishing (mostly social) content.

Reach – A score derived by the reach algorithm that takes into account followers, fans, subscribers, visitors and other audience metrics. Remember, this is more than just Twitter.

Audience – Overall social audience size.

Each of these signal sources are factored into the creation of a ranking for identified individuals. With any kind of social influencer list building, the key is to focus on relevance and resonance then factor in reach. The result is a combination of broad based influencers as well as individuals with a very specific focus and very high resonance and relevance scores.

Below is the subsequent ranking for 50 of the industry experts speaking at Social Media Marketing World this week including their Twitter handles and their presentation title(s). I encourage you to check them out as well as their presentations in San Diego this week.

What’s interesting about this list is that it highlights a number of people who are known more broadly for their expertise as well as a number of new faces compared to last year’s list.

A few thoughts about building influencer lists.

What social influencer lists don’t account for is the cumulative effect of influence a person achieves over time and in the “real world”. Lists like this are a snapshot in time – they are temporal, just like any measure of influence is. No one has the same level of influence all the time. A list of influencers based only on social media data is useful for content and communications through those social channels. It’s not the same thing as saying “These people are universally influential about social media marketing for now and all time.” That’s just silly.

Feeling left out? A list is inclusive so sometimes the criteria scores across a spectrum of the social web cause some filtering, especially when up and coming influencers have extremely high resonance and relevance scores. For example, Mitch Joel, Chris Brogan, John Jantsch, Beverly Jackson, Konnie Brown, Justin Levy, Scott Monty, Brian Clark, Viveka von Rosen, Sue B Zimmerman, Andrea Vahl and Sandy Carter are all pretty influential to me personally and to many other people. But they are not on this particular social influencer list of 50 for the topic “Social Media Marketing”. That doesn’t mean they are not influential on this topic.

More considerations than you think. When building out an influencer list for a content marketing program, you have to consider relevance, resonance, reach and audience of the influencer specific to the industry as well as their channels and the prospect audience for the specific program. Also, you have to consider the current state of relationship with those influencers, if any. Romance for recruitment can take a long time – or it can be very expensive.

Additionally, you need to consider the likelihood that any prominent influencer on your list will even be interested in the project. Is your project and invitation going to be useful to them? Will it be inspiring? All of that is considered in the identification and qualification phases so that when it comes time to recruit, everybody is on the same page and moving ahead.

Topical and context disconnects are very bad for business in the influencer marketing game. Lists are just the first step to creating a mutually beneficial relationship, especially if it involves content and is maintained over time.

Lists based on data and strategy based on research. The whole influencer marketing topic has a lot of noise attracted to it and we recently partnered with Traackr and Altimeter to conduct research to answer some of the key questions about influencer marketing. We surveyed mid-market companies and many large enterprise organizations about trends, maturity of their work with influencers, budgets, areas of most impact, goals and even where influence impacts customer experience and digital transformation.

The research report was written by my pal Brian Solis and you can get a copy of it here.

At Social Media Marketing World, I’m going to be giving a presentation that includes many of the insights included in the report plus practical influencer engagement models, tactics and influencer marketing tools.

The presentation is called, Future of Influencer Marketing: Strategies and Trends which you can see on Friday March 24th at 10:15am – 11:00am in the same room as the keynotes: 28ABCDE.

I hope to see you there!
