The Houston Dynamo announced the hiring of SRC FTBL to build an analytics department for the club. I know what you’re thinking, the Dynamo didn’t have an analytics department in 2023? That’s right, they didn’t. The club had analytics staff in the past but has been without recently. American Soccer Analysis does a yearly look at MLS teams and their analytics and the Dynamo were in the bottom tier last year.
It’s pretty mind-boggling to think a sports team in a top flight league would have no analytics department in this day and age.
