a leader and a man Swinney is? While the attention is nice, I worry that Herbstreit may have inadvertently put himself in a very unethical situation. Unless he resigns from ESPN, I do not see how there is not a conflict of interest with him calling our games and obviously wanting us to win with his sons playing for the program. I can see how this would rub opposing fans the wrong way, and of course we all know that the announcers can influence the play calling with their commentary.
The only ethical thing for KH to do would be to resign from his job at Gameday and find some kind of other work until his sons graduate from Clemson. I realize this a sticky situation for all involved, but it is also a good problem to have.

He's not a lawyer. Calls CFab games. He is a professional.

No different than him calling OHST games the last 25 yrs. Should be a non issue.

It is all fun and games until he decides to slam us on national TV because his sons did not get starting jobs.

This ain't politics! Unless he is on the committee. It doesn't matter. Did you hear Ned Jarrett calling the Daytona 500 when Dale Jarrett won? It was neat!

I think Clemson Housing would give him a job with a monogrammed sweeper broom...

I'm sure ESECN could use an extra janitor until his boys graduate.

He's a color analysis.
Not an inside trader.

then explain to me why he refused to pick our game on the gameday broadcast, even he knows there are ethical boundaries that should not be crossed.
I mean what happens when he leaks our playbook to Bama because ESPN stands to make more money if they win?

Never saw Bob Griese "recuse" himself when his son QB'd for Michigan (I think).

Burts Bees you should change your name to ChuckleNutz because you just can't help yourself from constantly posting these troll bait threads that you poop out as gently and low key as possible so they will come across as sincere and get the most bites as possible on some 'controversial' issue.
You get a lil' Dopamine hit every time you post one of these gems don't you?
