Awesome! Not a lot of people are doing it, relative to other areas of sports analytics. I would recommend:
Best of luck! At the very least, you'll learn a lot about data, humans, and problem solving. It's a win-win!
This is my first time reading this page and I am quite the amateur programmer.
I am an Assistant Professor in Criminal Justice; however, my passion is quantitative methodology and understanding big data.
I had a great opportunity to spend a summer learning Bayesian at ICPSR, but to be honest some of the concepts were hard to grasp. So, I have spent the greater part of the past year learning more about maximum likelihood estimations and Bayesian modeling.
I am currently reading The BUGS Book and [Doing Bayesian Analysis] (https://www.amazon.com/Doing-Bayesian-Data-Analysis-Tutorial/dp/0123814855/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1519347052&sr=1-3-fkmr1&keywords=bayesian+anaylsis+bugs).
I regularly teach linear modeling at both the undergraduate and graduate level. Lately, however, I have become interested in other techniques of prediction such as nearest neighbor analysis. About a month ago, I successfully created a model predicting plant specifications with the help of [Machine Learning with R] (https://www.amazon.com/Machine-Learning-techniques-predictive-modeling/dp/1784393908/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1519347125&sr=1-2-spons&keywords=machine+learning+in+R&psc=1). Of course, this is probably elementary for many of you here but I still found the process easy to understand and now I'm planning to learn about decision trees and Naive Bayes analysis.

You can write the code in whichever language you like. In fact, Professor Isbell repeatedly says, "You can steal the code; he doesn't care, because you are awarded precisely zero points for your code." You are only graded on your analysis.
I chose R for three reasons:
I have this: Machine Learning with R - Second Edition https://www.amazon.com/dp/1784393908/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_7TMEybJSEQZED
I reference it often. Basic explanations plus use cases. Includes example code and data sources to get you going.
Not in depth from a math/stat perspective but a great starting point.
