Best Books On Football – Clayton Trutor Interview (Part 2)

Best Books On Football – Clayton Trutor Interview (Part 2)

Clayton Trutor - Part 2

Dr. Clayton Trutor stops by on the show to share his opinion of the best books on football. During the interview, he provides 10 primary categories for the books discussed. In the first part of this interview, Dr. Clayton covered the categories that he calls League History, Biography, Strategy, A Season in the Life, and Expose'. If you have not listened to Clayton's first episode covering his first five categories for his best books about football, I suggest you do so.

In this episode, Dr. Trutor picks up right where we left off last week. He covers the rest of the best books on football starting with the Competing Pro Leagues category. The other four categories are Fiction, Early Pro Football, Franchise History, and rounding it out with a Page Turner. It's near impossible to pick the best football book in each category, so he also provides some alternative options for you. These football book recommendations are not a direct endorsement from The Football History Dude podcast, but as a dude, I'm always open to some great reads. So, strap on your seat belt, and let’s get ready to take this baby up to 88mph.

BTW - I reference William James Sidis at the end. He was considered one of the smartest dudes to ever live. Listen to see why I compare Dr. Clayton Trutor to this guy.

The Quarterback Project (w/ Michael Mertes)

The Football History Dude is part of the Sports History Network - The Headquarters For Sports Yesteryear.NETWORK SPONSORSRow One - the vintage shop for sports history fans!EPISODE SUMMARYThis week I spoke with Michael Mertes about a project he started to celebrate the NFL's 100th season, called "The Quarterback Project." He started the project to find a way to determine who the greatest quarterbacks were of all time in the NFL. To do this, Michael created a formula to assign a score. This score helped him rank the quarterbacks, something he's releasing on his site, with the top quarterback being released on the opening night of the 2022 season. We get into many topics during the interview, including: The origin story of The Quarterback Project How he calculated the index score for all of the quarterbacks How the score accounts for quarterbacks in different eras Some quarterbacks ranked higher on the list than he expected Some quarterbacks he thought for sure would have been on the list, but the score didn't dictate it We take the DeLorean back to some great QB duels in history His plans for the future Much more....
