# Football Elite Classifier — AutoML (AutoGluon Tabular)

**Task:** Binary classification — predict `Elite` (0/1) from tabular receiver stats.

## Dataset
- **Source:** <classmate name + HF dataset link if public>
- **Split:** Stratified Train/Test = 80/20 on the **original** split.
- **Features:** ['Tgt', 'Rec', 'Yds', 'YBC_per_R', 'YAC_per_R', 'ADOT', 'Drop_pct', 'Rat']
- **Target:** `Elite` (0/1)
- **Preprocessing:** Identifier columns dropped (e.g., Player). Numeric coercion; rows with NA removed.

## Training (AutoML)
- **Framework:** AutoGluon Tabular
- **Preset:** `best_quality`
- **Time budget:** 300s
- **Seed:** 42
- **Eval metric:** F1 (binary)
- **Notes:** AutoGluon performs model selection, ensembling, and stacking automatically.

## Results (Held-out Test)
```json
{
  "accuracy": 0.8333333333333334,
  "f1": 0.8

## Limitations & Ethics
- Correlations do not imply causation; labels may reflect selection bias.
- Out-of-distribution players/contexts may reduce performance.
- Intended for coursework, not for real personnel decisions.
