Crazy recruiting stories are nothing new. But Tom Herman's Tuesday in Atlanta takes the cake this year. The OSU offensive coordinator spent 19 hours in his car, traveling a distance of 1.5 miles in 10 hours!
Luckily, he live-tweeted the entire adventure for our pleasure.
Herman eventually left his rental car on the highway and attempted to walk to Hartsfield International Airport before hitching a ride.
So... 19 hrs in my car with hundreds of my closest friends. Too much ice and accidents to move. Gotta make flight to DFW. Call National

Find an gas station. Terry Spiller, my dude, shows up and won't take a dime to take me to the final mile or two to the airport.
