Manny Diaz Show... wow

This is what happens when you turn over the reins to a major college iconic program to an analytics stats nerd. That stuff is nice for fantasy football dorks and fat slob degenerate gamblers with congealed blood slowly dribbling through their clogged arteries. But I don’t want to hear that pvssy **** gurgling from the mouth of a man charged with the duty of leading other men. My fcking men!

Leaders of men do not concern themselves with spontaneous acts of kindness. Anyway, if it’s truly spontaneous, you can’t coach it. So why bother with it? This dude is caught up in dabbling in some dog ****.

Exactly. If you are actively charting it, then itby definition is not spontaneous. It’s manufactured. Dear God, this just keeps getting worse. I’m speechless.

Stay focused gang. Diaz is struggling because of his record, not because he thinks spontaneous celebration is important. Every coach has his own corny theory of winning or ways of motivation. Be it Saban's "following the process is more important than wins". Or Dabo's slide in the player's lounge. Or Golden's "brick by brick" theory.

So Diaz thinks spontaneous celebration is important. Who cares? If he can lead the team back to glory, who cares if he gives out gold stars for stupid crap?
 
The stuff he's charting does make a difference as far as getting good energy and positive mental approach.

The problem is it's totally cringeworthy to chart it - makes it seem totally inorganic and feel like homework.

This should be something the coaches stress verbally and encourage through osmosis with their own behavior. You can't just force it to happen with a spreadsheet.

As usual Manny knows what a winning formula should look like but has no clue about the process to achieve it.
 
This thread is kinda of funny considering how fans here were loving the turnover chain when it first came out
Difference is we were winning when it was introduced. Chain is corny now just like the TD rings.

Nothing is more cringe worthy than seeing players being forced to wear the rings or chain while losing or tied with some **** team.

Thats a BIG IF.
Manny doesn't strike as a guy that admits to his mistakes.....but we will soon find out.

we will see.Golden’s down fall was not firing the DC and that was our weakest link during his time. If our weakest link right now is the offensive scheme and your OC doesn’t want to change then you better make some changes or suffer more poor seasons and an embarrassing loss to force complete change stating with the HC. I think Manny will do what is right if time comes and results aren’t showing.
 
LOL. Let me get this straight. You think "analytics" will become LESS relevant in the future?

Ha, let's check in again in 20 years.

"Analytics" is not a fad. It is the byproduct of technological advancements in the ability to capture data, store data, transfer data, and transform data. Technological advancement only moves 1-way: forward.

I'm not too interested in having this discussion, because (1) the trend is plain as day, and (2) the more some people decide to stick their head in the sand, the easier it is for analytically inclined people to differentiate themselves.

But this is an amusing take.


I agree with you that JD08 is a total ******* and must not be paying attention to the current world we live in. What kills us is the fact that this staff is tracking and measuring data on Damm celebrations and **** smacking.?? We are screwed, and the semenholes will be the ones dropping loads in our *** I'm afraid. Panzy ****t
 
Well, you don't have it straight. Not even a little.

Considering that I make a living at analytics and have for over 20 years, I'd say I have a pretty clear perspective on trends in the field.

I'm saying there are plenty of meaningless statistics out there and the problem is going to get worse. Without knowing what problem you're trying to solve and having good data quality, you're not going to get the metrics you need to get an accurate picture. As more money is being spent on analytics, more unqualified people are going to be capitalizing on that.

Look at trying to measure spontaneous celebrations of other players' successes. Knowing they are going to be measured, do you think they will be more or less frequent now? Does that improve or degrade the data quality?

I'm not saying there's no value in analytics, obviously. Just that good metrics are going to be harder to discern.

You just redeemed yourself 08. I had you pegged in the clueless category. But I'll admit when I'm wrong.
 
So if you carry the 2 and add the 1 “Manny better win tomorrow” is our ratio.
 
Hate is such a strong word. But, it just draws me closer to how I feel about Mandy at the moment.

I really want to Tyson chomp on his right Evander after listening to that.

This is an insult to any coach or organization who effectively uses analytics. Being a wannabe analytics stats nerd is NOT the same thing as analytics that affect the cot**** football game. This example is just stuff to appear/sound analytical instead of relevant analytics that make your football players perform better.

Rough.
This is the key. Nothing wrong with analytics conceptually, but garbage in, garbage out - when you track stupid irrelevant things, you get stupid irrelevant info back.

Also, to Franchise’s point, there’s a difference between a HC and a film guy. When the HC is messaging around celebratory reactions rather than football actions, you just know he’s the wrong guy.
