South Carolina Athletics introduces Inside Gamecock Athletics Podcast

The University of South Carolina Athletics Department, in conjunction with Learfield IMG College, introduces a new podcast designed to inform and update fans on the latest happenings in Gamecock Athletics.

“Inside Gamecock Athletics” will be hosted by South Carolina Athletics Director Ray Tanner with new episodes appearing monthly.

The first episode debuted Thursday, Oct. 3 with interviews between Tanner and Gamecock Football Director of Player Development Marcus Lattimore and Beach Volleyball Student-Athlete and Student-Athlete Advisory Committee member Franky Harrison.

“I think Gamecock fans will enjoy these podcasts,” said Tanner.  “For those who listen to them, I hope they will hear stories and information that will make them feel proud to be a Gamecock and know the good things that are happening inside our athletics department.”

Plans call for interviews to be conducted with, not only athletics department staff members and student-athletes, but college athletics stakeholders from around the country and members of the media who can give an insight on the business of college sports.

“The idea of having a podcast became intriguing to me because it’s a relatively new technology and we had not done this before,” added Tanner. “To be able to articulate different issues without having to worry about time constraints will hopefully allow our fans to further understand the complex issues that surround college sports.”

Also available on “Inside Gamecock Athletics” channel will be archives of Carolina Calls and previous shows as well as interviews and radio segments.  Fans can subscribe to “Inside Gamecock Athletics” on iTunes or their favorite podcast app.
