Yes, Herbstreit works for ESPN. I would agree with you if Herbstreit DID NOT have personal experience within the buckeye program i.e...being the starting QB. If he was NOT an ex-player, he should stay unbiased. However, the ESPN report is based on former players testimony. He would be the perfect "credible witness" ESPN is lacking with this story. Bottom Line, ESPN would NOT fire Herby for stating his personal knowledge of the program. Gimme a Break. He has more lattitude than he is using. His silence could/has been be viewed by the average College Football fan as suspicious at best.

He did state once on the radio show when the allegations first came out that he never saw or knew anything about cars/cash/grades. What is he supposed to do, repeat himself ever 5 minutes when the assholes at Espin run another add or lead-in? I think he is doing the right thing, that said, I didn't like the attitude he took responding to Gieger turning down gameday.
edit
this one got a lot of responses in a hurry.
