Description

Theoretical experts¹ in soccer put their academic jobs on the line by trying out in practice what, in theory, sounded like a good idea (Dean, 2017). The Front Row Students are a crew of brainy boffins who took fieldwork to a whole new level! Led by The Dean and armed with theoretical soccer manuals (e.g., The Ronald Field Tactics for Dummies), they’re determined to prove that statistics and sarcasm beat sweat and skill any day. They rely on solving the Grand Soccer Equation (GSE) as the league advances (p < .001), as it could be a game-changer. But Momoshiro also has his sights on the GSE, and may tempt them with the true victory: tenure. Get your thinking caps on and kick off! ¹ Soccer 101, Momo Corp. University™. 1989 - present. Dean, T.
