[QUOTE="steebu, post: 523608, member: 740"] It's great that there is this sort of grass-roots movement. It would be awesome if this is a yearly thing with the potential to turn one of these projects into a startup. Now that said, I'll (once again) relate a story from the Dark Ages. Catapult Sports approached GT a while back and offered to outfit the team with their GPS sports trackers and run analytics on the collected data. FSU and UNC (probably more by now) were the other ACC teams using their tech, not only for their football teams but for their other sports teams as well. CPJ thought it was a great idea and approached M-Bob about outfitting the team with the trackers. M-Bob: "Sure. You can have four." CPJ: "Four? You realize there are 85 guys on a team, right?" M-Bob: "I said four." * One huge thing CGC is going to benefit from is an AD who wants football to succeed and will actually do something about it. This Innovation Challenge is a step in the right direction. *not a transcript of the actual conversation because it was probably done over the phone [/QUOTE]
