No. Worked for the CDC for a few years while in college but I'm in the private sector where data-driven analysis is what is important.

Well what data exists on successful head coaches that you want to share with us?

You can analyze this to death.

Remain paralyzed by indecision.

At the top level you don't tell people how to organize, how to do their job. You don't say to a new guy "we have identified this data that we need you to address but everything else is ok so don't mess with it and BTW after another season of data come ask us what you need to do next."

His systems are weak. All of them it appears. The right man will have demonstrated that he can not only manage systems but can create them.

His ability to motivate is poor. How do you measure that? the right man will have a resume that demonstrates such ability.

At the end of the day---you fire them when they don't win and you pay them when they do.

The only data you need on the head guy is his ability to win the games while following the rules. It is easy to understand. Everything else is his responsibility.
