Listen "Fantasy Football and Data Analytics with Emily Marshall"
Episode Synopsis
Director of Media Relations Craig Layne, a former radio host and jorunalist, sits down with Emily Marshall, associate professor of economics and data analytics and co-chair of Dickinson's data analytics program. Marshall is also an avid Eagles fan and belongs to two fantasy-football leagues—one that includes highly knowledgeable fans from all walks of life and another that’s exclusively for fellow Ph.D.-holding economists. In her brief interview, Marshall explains how people working in all fields can use data analytics to inform decision making—including those of us who are a bit math-shy. She also offers tips and basic principles that just might just help you get the most out of your own fantasy-sports experience.
