The MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference is coming!

The dates are March 2-3, in Boston of course.

It is a little pricey (if you are a current student anywhere, it is a steal), but if you are serious about your sports analytics, you want to stump for a job with a team, or you want to meet some truly interesting and sometimes brilliant personalities, you should seriously consider attending.

Darrel Morey
John Hollinger
Scott Boras
Bill Simmons
