Digging into ASA’s 2023 MLS Analytics Survey! Where MLS stands globally, team rankings, and more with Eliot McKinley
Ep. 56
•
Here at Backheeled, we like to talk about MLS. We also like to use stats. On this episode, Joe Lowery is joined by Eliot McKinley, a data scientist and contributor to American Soccer Analysis, to do both of those things. Eliot recently published the “2023 MLS Analytics Survey”, which you can find here. Eliot helps provide some context to the survey and runs through the most interesting responses.
