This week's pod takes a trip down memory lane with former Florida State quarterback Chris Weinke on the 25th anniversary of his Heisman-winning season. Learn how the late-1980s three-sport high school prodigy out of Minnesota transformed into the improbable and unflappable late-1990s Seminole field general who -- at age 28! -- helped cap one of college football's great dynastic runs. Now the offensive coordinator for Georgia Tech, Weinke looks back fondly at his Heisman weekend, the last one held at the old Downtown Athletic Club, and shares why the late, great Bobby Bowden was so central to his success in life. To close out the show, we chat with ESPN analyst Max Browne, who helps put a bow on the 2025 college football regular season while also identifying an interesting trend or two.
The Heisman Hopefules Podcast streams every Thursday during the college football season and is hosted by Chris Huston. The pod is available on all streaming networks, including Spotify and Apple Music, and full videos of the show are available on YouTube, with clips on TikTok and Instagram.
