WTH is this?


Jan 16, 2016, 5:52 AM

Here is a snapshot of the green light coming from the shoulder pads of an Alabama player prior to them leaving the tunnel. For those thinking it is a laser pointer - it ain't as it was a rhythmic flashing and stayed in the same spot on his uniform relative to his movement and from the video was obvious that it was coming from underneath his uniform.

Any idea what they had this guy wired up with?

Did a quick internet search on it and found only one article that mentions it , but the author was only also asking if anyone of his readers had an idea of what it might be .
It's no laser pointer , as you can clearly see that the bottom of the circle of green light is evenly blocked by the letter on his jersey .
Would love to know what that is .

My guess is that it is related to this

http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2013/02/sec_pac-12_and_big_12_will_ele.html

I remember hearing about pads for tracking / monitoring the players a while back.

Kaylee Hartung (sp?) talked about the GPS systems Bama was using.,, but I thought that was only during practice, not sure though. They were used to track explosiveness of movements to gauge how tired the team was during bowl prep, and consequently how hard to push the team. Maybe they're really just fancy accelerometers.

So, like an ankle monitor? Perfect.***

Can SEC speed be measured?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Yep!


Jan 16, 2016, 8:30 AM

Their players move at an average speed of 11.74 bazillion miles per nanosecond.

The only logical explanation is alien life forms are monitoring Alabama football players and are controlling their movements

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Not aliens

IF you are a numbers person and like what data can do for you this is pretty cool stuff. I wouldn't mind if we started using it, I can definitely see the benefit.
