Podcast: Stewart Mandel on college football analytics at the All-American

On this episode of the Football Analytics Show, I talk with Stewart Mandel, head of the new subscription college football site The All-American. He’s previously written for Sports Illustrated and Fox Sports.

Among other topics, we discuss:

• The type of analytics that will distinguish the All-American from other college football sites
• The primary frustration that drove Stewart to this new project
• The Power 5 conference that came in dead last in his coaching talent rankings
• The ACC team that could challenge Florida State and Clemson in their division
• How to pitch (and not pitch) Stewart on writing for the All-American

I’ve always looked up to Stewart’s writing and enjoyed our conversation about his new project. You can get updates on The All-American here.
