Ivan Maisel is a national college football writer. Maisel began his career at The Atlanta Constitution in 1981. Sports Illustrated hired him as a reporter the following year. He began covering national college football in 1987 for the Dallas Morning News, then moved to Newsday in 1994. He rejoined Sports Illustrated in 1997 as a senior writer. In 2002, ESPN hired him as its first college football writer. Maisel appeared on ESPN television, radio and podcasts. Maisel served as the Editor-at-Large of ESPN College Football 150, the multi-platform project commemorating the 2019 sesquicentennial of the sport. Maisel has been honored eight times for Best Story by the Football Writers Association of America, most recently for a 2019 remembrance of author Dan Jenkins. The FWAA honored Maisel in 2016 with the Bert McGrane Award, the organization's Hall of Fame. He has been honored twice by the Associated Press Sports Editors, who in 2019 named him one of the 10 best sports columnists in the nation. In 2020, the College Sports Information Directors of America presented Maisel the Jake Wade Award for his contribution to intercollegiate athletics. Maisel also won the Edwin Pope Vanguard Media Award from the Orange Bowl in 2019. A detailed, thoroughly researched thesis, it will make even the most diehard fan of a team admit that their feelings have muddied their opinions and weakened all previous arguments about the who and what is the most overrated and underrated ever. Nobody is left out as Maisel goes through the best of college football's history.
