You don't need brain imaging to sort out those with a natural talent and affinity for math, the challenge of an education system is to maximize the level of those without such affinities.

That's not how football is approached. I think GP's point is that football is approached by selecting for those with the most potential and maximizing that and that math teachers can't be like football coaches really.
