Analytics in NCAA Football

So I read this Ringer article NFL Analytics Revolution And it got me wondering if:

A) Do we have an analytics person on our staff?

I know part of the GAs job is to chart plays from the all 22 film. After that data is entered who knows where it goes from there.

B) What teams in the NCAA use it? I have to think that Bama, Ohio State and Clemson have it some how.

The only time I have ever heard it being discussed was Army's defensive coordinator utilizes it on some level.

I'll add one more question. How do you feel analytics will impact College Football in the future? Personally schools have data scientists available, why not use the resources at your finger tips?
