An analysis of NFL player intelligence and its relation to performance.
This is a study conducted I for my Economics of Sport class at Santa Clara University. Leveraging my Computer Science background and interest in data science I created a script that collects NFL player data, aggregates statistics, and then cross references player educational background.
I used a number of tools from CSCI 182 (Data Science) and CSCI 183 (Web & Data Crawling) including:
- Pandas
- Jupiter Notebook
- Scrapy
- Scikit-Learn
