Herbstreit Leaves Ohio to Escape Buckeyes Fans: ESPN college football analyst Kirk Herbstreit has moved his family out of Ohio to get away from obnoxious Ohio State University fans. "Nobody loves Ohio State more than me," said Herbstreit, a former Buckeyes quarterback. "It's the vocal minority that make it rough. They probably represent only 5 to 10 percent of the fan base, but they are relentless."

Herbie's a heck of a good guy, I wish him nothing but the best.

When a guy who has to work with Brent Musburger gets to the point where he feels the need to escape Ohio, it tells you just how insufferable those OSU fans must be.

(In all fairness to Brent, he has mellowed with age and is not nearly as insufferable as he once was).

If you're tired of taking abuse from your school's fan base, telling them that the school has a 1-in-10 asshole ratio may be counterproductive.
