You’ll get hundreds of brilliant researchers working on your problem, for much less than it would cost to employ one researcher for a year. But the prize money is still tantalizing to poor graduate students all around the world, so they’ll compete for it. Not to mention it would look great on your resume.

Lebron James approves of this socialist message. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching Sportscenter at 11pm to catch up on the sports news and moving through the rest of the week without missing anything You can still do that. You just have to deal with in-game advertisements from Cris Collinsworth on the football analytics site he owns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
childofpudding Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 They also did this last year and it was focused on the passing game. Different receiver routes, if I remember correctly. I'll see if I can dig up some stuff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
