The University jobs website just posted a position titled: Football Operations and Analytics Coordinator.  Maybe this is the same job but maybe not since they had a more bland position titled Football Analyst posted a few weeks back.  Either way, the previously posted position was pretty similar to the current posting that can be found right here and if this is another position we have a heads up on it.
