Roger Scott: Great book about college football and broadcasting careers, families, resilience, and so much more. Love watching GameDay and his game broadcasts too.

CJ10: I'll admit straight away, that my husband & I are Herbie fans. We were at OSU together & he's college football to us. We've lived out of the US for a long time & we don't get to watch a lot of CFB but we watch whatever game Herbie is calling. He's like home for us. When I first saw an excerpt from the book, I thought if it was half as good as the excerpt, it would be good. There's so many things he shares he didn't have to. He's even more relatable than we knew. When reading, I could hear his voice in my head. I love all the anecdotes. I don't know how he remembers the details that he did but it's wonderful. We never knew how much in common we had with him. Respect him even more. And his wife, love that he gives her lots of props & she sounds like an amazing person.

Thomas Kelley: If you have watched College gameday on ESPN in the last thirty years or a big time Ohio State football fan you probably know who is Kirk Herbstriet is. Sports show host, Ohio State quarterback puts down n writing what life was like growing up second generation Ohio State football player and at on e time a Parade high school all American who learned what the true meaning of perseverance and the rewards that come with it. This not only covers his family life both growing up but also his becoming a father and the struggles his wife and and him faced with having children. This also follows his sportscasting career from getting started in radio and eventually being a part of College Game Day. I really like the chapter about his working and personal relationship with Lee Corso who it seems was like a second father to him.
Overall this is a good read more so if you our a sports fan.
