J_Miles,

We did end up eliminating or not using a good deal of the data of the spread sheet. All the things listed were things we thought would be important. I appreciate the opinion, we are constantly trying to make scouting an easier and less time consuming event.

Just a to let everyone know, we gave the analytic scouting using business inteligence (BI) presentation as part of the Conference in Atlanta. I will be sure to add our presentation on here. We had to add the BI into scouting because we were gathering so much info that we didn't know how to find it and read it efficiently. The BI was used mainly for Metadata, or data about data. The best example I can give is think of a physics text book and find information on kinematics. Now trying doing that without page numbers, table of contents, chapters, or index. These things are like Metadata, they are pointers to the data. We were able to run real time progression trends and have an accurate count of who scores how many balls and from where. Very key things in strategy.
