Why Did Kirk Herbstreit Give Up His Vote in the AP Poll? [UPDATE]
By Jason McIntyre
The only name here that’s interesting is ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit. According to Pollspeak, he’s given up his vote in the AP poll this year. Wonder why? I reached out to ESPN this morning, hoping Herbstreit would answer that question. Nothing yet.
ESPN’s Chris Fowler and Craig James will still cast ballots, though.
[UPDATE: From ESPN – “When he had his Columbus radio show, Herbstreit had been considered an Ohio voter by AP (vs. a National voter like Chris Fowler). When Herbstreit moved to Nashville, he was no longer eligible to be an Ohio voter, so AP took him off.”]
