Calvin Reed

Calvin Reed tells sports stories that go far beyond the box score. A former Division I basketball player, he brings an insider’s understanding to his profiles of athletes, coaches, and the communities that rally around teams. His writing explores the psychology of competition, the business of college sports, and the complicated legacies of athletic institutions. Calvin earned an MFA in nonfiction writing after his playing days ended and has since contributed to national sports magazines. Based in Nashville, he covers everything from SEC football to minor league baseball with a literary eye. He believes the best sports writing is about the human condition, not the scoreboard.
