Kirk Herbstreit is adding something else to his fall schedule.
Along with his duties as the color commentator for the primetime college football game each Saturday night on ABC, the color commentator for Amazon's Thursday night NFL broadcast and as an analyst on ESPN's "College GameDay," Herbstreit, a former Ohio State quarterback, has a new project with his dog Ben.
"We're calling it 'Walks with Ben,'" Herbstreit posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, Friday. "Ben and I will take a walk each week with a special guest. During the season we get a chance to be around so many interesting people in the football world − we thought it would be fun to invite some of them to come hang with Ben and I for a short walk."
Herbstreit said episodes would come in the fall "once the football season gets rolling." It is not clear whether the interview show would be solely on social media, or a segment on ESPN.
Herbstreit brought his dog to many games that he would call for ABC and ESPN last season.
Herbstreit became Ohio State’s starting quarterback in 1992. He led the Buckeyes to an 8-3-1 record and finished the season with a Citrus Bowl loss to Georgia. Herbstreit had 1,904 passing yards, four touchdowns and six interceptions.
