Some of the work was already being done. To what extent is a question. The kids were already being told generally how to eat and to stay hydrated. There was already a nutritionist in the athletic department.

Having a dedicated nutritionist is better than not. Having a whole team even better. This is assuming you get an experienced football nutritionist. Just getting a nutritionist could actually make things worse.

But an entire team isn’t needed. The nutritionist isn’t meeting every day or in most cases even every week. Plenty of time to fit 100 kids over 10 days.

I would be interested to know if they plan on taking bloodwork. Can you even require kids to?

End of the day ia dedicated nutritionist likely won’t make much of a difference. These are growing young men. It isn’t hard to get results. Once you hit a certain point in life the value of nutrition gets more and more important for an athlete, 18-20 year olds, not so much.

Nutrition used to be an afterthought. Now it seems like it went too far in the opposite direction.
