Rhule wants a Sports Science department. What is it?

[Jeremy Igo]

Rhule apparently wants a sport science department that will constantly look at data to improve recovery and performance. 

He did the same thing at Baylor, and now wants an NFL version. David Tepper is willing to cut the check. I'm sure Mr. Analytics was all about it. 

 

Here is some info on the Baylor program under Rhule 

"We look at it as, we really have two windows of opportunity where we can really affect performance in-season, and that’s the first 48 hours after the game, and the 48 hours before the game,” Baylor director of applied performance Andrew Althoff notes after saying that their approach is to take the latest research and sports science and apply it to performance."

“How can we help get them recovered, and get them back up to full speed by the time that practice starts the following week? Those final 48 hours are the massage, and body weights, and hydration and working with strength and conditioning, working with nutrition to make sure the athletes are ready to go, fresh, fast and physical on game day,"

The Panthers were already doing this type of thing to a certain degree with their GPS sensors on the uniforms and such. It looks like Rhule and Tepper will be taking it to a higher level together.

Welcome to the Browns of the south.

This is going to be interesting. next level stuff for the NfL. 

[Happy Panther]

Good. This should be standard.

I'm sure Cam will get his money's worth out of that given our OL

Please don't let it be as terrible as ESPN's "Sports Psuedoscience" garbage.

Players who want to recover quickly, probably.

One thing I'm excited about is having a head coach that probably doesn't have brain damage from his NFL playing career

[Mr. Scot]

It could change the game, or we could wind up doing a lot of stuff only to find ourselves losing to old fashioned plain old football programs.

I'm hoping for the former, but anything could happen.

If some extra science and analytics can help cut down on our friggin injuries during the season, and keep guys fresher for games, I am all for it.

[TheWiz]

Gotta be honest... been binge watching interviews of him and checking out what he brings. 

And I think it really works. It's gonna be a process.... but I think I'm sold.

I love it when people are narcissistic enough to do what others have done or told them to do and act like they discovered fire or something.
