I'm thrilled to finally announce that Parker Fleming has joined Dropback as VP of Football Strategy.
Parker brings a rare combination of technical expertise and hands-on football analytics experience to Dropback's product roadmap.
While other vendors in the space hire experts like Parker to build proprietary models & evaluation algorithms to sell teams—we do things differently here at Dropback:
Starting today, Parker is an ad-hoc resource for teams as they build-their-own in-house analytics models using Dropback. Parker is already…
- Hands-on collaborating with numerous Dropback Plus & Pro Tier clients
- Thought-partner to translate custom strategies, into scalable custom models for athlete valuation & discovery
- Providing tips & resources on taking full advantage of Dropback's front office infrastructure
"I've always been fascinated with how on-the-field data can drive off-the-field decisions for college football teams. The best front offices in the revenue sharing era aren't just the ones with the biggest budgets; they're the ones with the best processes. Dropback is the best tool I've seen to help programs implement and own those processes in-house. I can't wait to join the team!" - Parker Fleming, VP of Football Strategy at Dropback.
Parker + Dropback
A PhD in Economics with numerous years of hands-on sports analytics experience, Parker will work closely with our engineering team to drive features that reflect how elite front offices implement data into their off-the-field operations.
And, he'll be sharing his journey along the way → https://x.com/statsowar
This is another huge leap toward Dropback's mission: to democratize NFL-grade Front Office tools & processes for college sports' revenue-sharing era. And now, Dropback teams have access to one of the brightest minds in sports analytics at their disposal.
On behalf of Team Dropback: Welcome, Parker!
