I've seen "sports science" referenced a few times here on the forum. Can anyone tell me more about this?
Dolphins Sports Science?

It is applying science to sports.
I think the better definition or term would be "monitoring a players anatomy and physiology to get peak performances for the longest period of time"
Here's a small tidbit of info on it.

Its a Broad Term that has several subgroups I speculate.
Analytics: Using tracking software and unconventional metrics to group performance beyond the simple eyeball test.
Advanced Physiology: You can measure different things. Everyone burns nutrients differently. This is where these custom post practice beverages come from. It is likely some unique combination of carbs, proteins and minerals since everyones metabolism is a little different.
They probably perform bloodtests measuring different breakdown products to monitor health beyond simply vitals after practice.
It wouldn't surprise me if sleep monitors are the next step though I doubt that has been implemented yet.

Layman's terms, Rocky IV minus the steroids the Russian used sports science.
Read an article today that Miami literally makes one custom recovery drink for each player tuned to their anatomy. No two drinks are the same.
