This week brings a very special episode of the Heisman Trophy Podcast as we delve into the grass roots of college football and speak with innovators who help build the sport's culture. First up, the editor of the largest gathering for college football fans on the internet, Bobak Ha'Eri of r/cfb on Reddit. With over 4.4 million members, "the internet's tailgate" has influence that stretches well beyond its platform. Ha'Eri explains how r/cfb got its start and why it continues to thrive in an ever-changing college football landscape. We close with Mark Branstad, founder and CEO of TrackingFootball.com, an innovative scouting service that compiles tons of athletic data points (especially track and field marks) on high school, college and pro players. There's a good chance your school uses Mark's analytics, so you might as well get familiar.
The Heisman Trophy Podcast streams every Wednesday during the college football season and is hosted produced, edited and engineered by Chris Huston. The pod is available on all streaming networks, including Spotify and Apple Music, and features video interviews and bonus content on YouTube and TikTok. We also have a reddit community.
