Herbstreit Moves to Nashville

  • se-alum
    I'm sure most OSU fans already knew this, but here is a little blurb about it.

    I really hope stupid ass fans weren't making threats toward him and his family. I think Herbie tried to be overly objective when it came to OSU, but that's no reason to run him out of town.

    His house had been for sale for a few years.

    that's too bad...a "vocal minority"? crazy ass maniacs is more like it!!!
  • centralbucksfan
    I like Herbie, always have. And its a shame about the small minority of fans. But come on, grow some thick skin pal. When your in his position, it comes with the territory. And with the money he makes..not sure I feel for him too much. Now if its worse where his family is being harrassed...ok.

    I'd move to NashVegas too if I could
  • Prescott
    Should we have a pity party for Herbie? Grow some!!

    I'm sorry but if fans are berating you day after day for doing your job correctly, possibly even threatening you, you would move in a heartbeat if you had the means.
  • thedynasty1998
    I don't blame him one bit if he felt he was being harassed.

    Not if I loved my home and my community.

    I can't believe that Herbstriet actually felt threatened. If 9-3 Earle and John Cooper can survive in this atmosphere, Herbie could to, if he really wanted to. If he wants to move , that's fine. Own the decision, don't blame it on somebody else.

    A planned move?? I remember this being discussed at the time.

    I do think he goes out of his way on occasion trying to be neutral, but I also think people are morons for giving him a hard time about it. Herbie can live wherever he wants.

    +1 I don't care for some things Herbie says, but even with guys in the media I really can't stand, I can't imagine harassing or interfering with someone's personal or family life. That's beyond idiotic.

    Does Tennessee have an income tax? Might be a good reason to move there too...
  • Fab4Runner
    :( I was always hoping to run into him around Columbus. Sadly, it never happened.
  • krambman
    My guess is that he can handle it, but I assume that his wife and kids are being harassed. If that is the case then not only does he have every right to leave, but he should leave. His family shouldn't have to deal with that.
  • Pick6
    never cared for him anyway
  • ohiotiger33
    Met him on a golf course. Great guy. He also used to live down the street from some of my friends in Powell about 7-8 years ago.

    Just shows how retarded some people are

    No state income tax.

    He is a vagina and not a real Buckeye, look at his final AP poll... he had tOSU at 9. There is a difference between being a buckeye homer, being unbiased and being Kirk Herbstreit. Now I don't think he deserved to get harrassed if he did, but if he can't take the heat on his twitter without being a dick he can GTFO.
  • karen lotz
    If not a real Buckeye means telling the truth, is that a bad thing?
