So he worked at the Daily and KZSU as an undergrad, founded a company that contended that there's a shortfall of "beneficial software products in sports," worked at Oracle, allegedly "mentored startup founders and young executives" on "leadership and strategy," and will "build a front office" for the football program (whatever that means). So far I fail to see that, given his background, this hire is going to do anything substantive to promote Stanford football's renaissance. Can any of you help me see the positive value added by this position and hire?

Super into analytics and wants to use them to "Moneyball" the roster.
Quote from paid forum: "If I could've picked a single person who lived and breathed Stanford football (and subsequently Stanford sports), it was him."
