Before he became an ESPN college football analyst and one of the faces of the sport, Kirk Herbstreit was an Ohio State quarterback, suiting up for the Buckeyes from 1989-92.
Now, one of his sons is headed to his alma mater’s hated rival.
Chase Herbstreit, a quarterback in the 2025 recruiting class, has committed to Michigan, he announced Sunday to On3 Sports.

The younger Herbstreit recently wrapped up his senior season at St. Xavier High School in Cincinnati, where he threw for 1,600 yards and 18 touchdowns, and rushed for 649 yards and eight touchdowns.
Listed at 6-foot-2 and 185 pounds, Herbstreit does not have a star rating from 247Sports.
He’s the second quarterback in the 2025 class for coach Sherrone Moore and the Wolverines, joining Bryce Underwood, the five-star phenom and No. 1 overall player in the class who committed to Michigan in November and signed with the program last week.
Two of Kirk Herbstreit’s older sons, Tye and Jake, previously played at Clemson as walk-ons. Jake later transferred to Ohio State to “pursue other interests.” Another one of Herbstreit’s sons, Zak, is a walk-on tight end at Ohio State, where he’s in his fourth season with the program, though he has dealt with a heart issue during his college career that hospitalized him.
