How’s this for analytics?

I think that’s kind of the point of the stat. There probably aren’t any other schools that have had 20+ seasons of SB contenders. Hence the comparison.

but there is no comparison because you didn't contextualize those numbers lol

This seems a little more interesting. The colleges with the most players this year. Instead of trends from 20 years ago this focuses on now.

Georgia not in the top 22

And 2020: (though having the Chiefs again would just tend to cause some common schools)

I’ll defer to someone with more time on their hands to investigate what the hundreds of other colleges and universities are doing in context of consecutive SB appearances but I doubt there are many with this particular stat. Regardless, it’s an interesting stat and one that I’m sure Tepper and co. might be interested in.

I think he was pointing out that 2 numbers aren't analytics. Maybe an interesting anecdote though.

I mean if we are arguing semantics sure. If the stat followed up with “no other teams have this production” then I think it’s a different story.

but Georgia isn't even in the top 20 this or last year so that they had 1 or so this year or what happened 20 years ago isn't a very relevant analysis. It's pretty much just counting.

Could be just a rare coincidence. But SEC teams like GA and LSU are at least in the conversation of competing each year. It’s an impressive stat and if it assists with draft logic then great. One could argue relevance to the topic as it dates back so far but it’s a telling stat for program success and if I’m scouting impactful players that could get me to a SB I think this has its relevance.

If the question is "How's this for analytics?". My honest answer would be that it's rather weak or useless.

Fair enough. It was more of a playful title as we are in the midst of draft discussion, era of a new GM, and Tepper loves his “analytics.” I’ll make sure to do a paragraph long title next time like most folks on here to really drive the point across.

      I believe in bryce...

      If you are an athlete or former athlete (myself?  Cornhole 2021-present; Disc Golf 2013-got a mega blister and had to retire; speed walking--every black Friday at Walmart 2003-2009) you know what it is to lose confidence.  Self-inflicted or not (in my view, a lot of 2023 was coaching and a lot of 2024 was confidence), he has confidence now. How fragile is it?  I think the light is on, the game slowed down, and he is ready to do his thing.  He seems to be "mobile in the pocket" instead of "running scared."   Last year, there were times when AT was out, Johnson gone, and all he really had was XL and Coker--a raw rookie with upside and an UDFA rookie.  TE was rarely a viable option. It reminded me of Benjamin and Funchess.   Moore had to step up.  This season, Bryce has weapons.  I expect XL to improve.  I expect TMac to help tremendously, and I think Coker will be solid.  Renfrow?  Horn?  bonuses.

      His points are valid.  However, it seems a bit based on past performance and fails to take into consideration trends and conditions that might suggest growth in 2025.   For one, he breaks the team down by position and ranks them separately.  I guess that is a fair way to do it, but they are dependent upon each other. Last year, our DL sucked.  That impacts the rest of the defense.  With no internal pressure, the QBs simply step up to avoid the Edge rush.  I would have suggested that the internal DL is now featuring pass rushers and large people who can collapse the pocket.  Secondly, the LBs were not protected very well in 2024.  It is hard to see the holes and step up when a guard is in your earhole a second after the snap.  Finally, the defensive backs will be forced to make fewer tackles and they will be better in pass protection with a new and improved DL.    Canales made an interesting comment the other day, and I (from the outside looking in) feel the same way:  (paraphrasing) "I have never seen a better group of rookies."   I think the biggest concern is the learning curve.  How long before these rookies are ready?   I am bullish on this team.  I think they win 3 of their first 4 and get confident.  The get the fans behind them.  From there, they win 6 of the remaining 13.  If they stay injury free, they have an outside shot at the NFC south.

      Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.
