Sometimes Numbers Are Not What They Appear to be

CLEMSON — I love statistics, but not analytics.

They are two different things. At least to me they are.

However, they both can be used the same way. For countless years, numbers, statistics and analytics have been used to either support an argument or debunk one.

It depends on how you use the numbers or how you want to use the numbers to tell the story.

This is what makes numbers so great, which is why I love stats, especially sports statistics.

As most of you know, if you have read my stories and columns enough, you know that I am history buff.
