Hard enough that tears ran down your leg? Me too.

You left out the part where he accuses people of being Hecht shills.

So it's put up or shut up. Love it.

You must be the blonde in the picture. Ed Orgeron would not have the championship he does without the coordinators and position coaches he had. By himself, he is not one to put things together like Saban or Meyer. Your hate for Manny is so strong that anything other than outright condemnation...

I had asked about it because of the outliers that result from having one long run figured into YPP. Lance pointed out that success rate has a similar problem because it weighs a 3 yard gain on 3rd and 2 the same as a 75 yard run on 3rd and 2. The only issue I can see with it is that a 4 yard...

There's a reason that Tableau calls a set of visualizations a story.

And Spook Hill.

But they only care about football at the expense of everything else. Few are willing to do that, nor should they.

If Ed Orgeron can win a championship with the right combination of staff and players, then there's no reason Manny can't. The odds of Blake James making a home run hire to replace Manny is slim to none so the choice is to hope Manny hits the Orgeron luck or just give up.

It's not a bleak outlook either. The new hires are sufficient cause for optimism for me.

Of course context is key. That's why UCF's undefeated national championship is a joke. Coker did have great stats, but when you looked at the trends of those stats, it painted a different picture. A very significant part of business intelligence is selecting the measures that provide the most...

That's why I asked about using success rate instead of YPP. It would seem to me that a few really good rushes could skew the metrics, but Lance added context. I'm always up for a good discussion and sometimes it's great here, but there's a segment of people who only want to share their opinion...

I feel like I've really seen a car roll uphill. I don't want to hear about "science" telling me it's really rolling downhill with all those fancy altitude analytics. I know what I saw.

One of the posters here put it best. People want affirmation not information. Nobody follows the evidence.

@Lance Roffers, would comparing the success rate of opposing teams help to eliminate the outliers that skew the YPP?
