For Ohio State Offensive Coordinator Tom Herman, his recent recruiting trip to Atlanta will be one he will never forget. After being stuck on the highway for 19 hours due to a snowstorm, Herman was forced to abandon his rental car and hike 3 miles to the airport falling several times. Luckily he got a ride for the last mile of the trip.
Literally 9 straight hours in my car to go 50 miles. Mother Nature: 1, Atlanta: 0. #IGottaPee #Snowpocalypse pic.twitter.com/XHXJQaEh5B

Live update from ATL. I’ve moved .6 miles in the last hour. Yes, there is a decimal point in front of that number. pic.twitter.com/AbM9sIQhVv

Just passed the 17 hour mark stuck in the car. Don’t know what’s going on up ahead. Hope everyone is ok. We’ve traveled 1.5 miles in 10 hrs

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

Thanks again to everyone for their well wishes and prayers. Please continue to pray for those still stuck out there. It is truly a mess.

Even a Michigan State fan has to feel bad for this guy. Unfortunately some people are still stuck on the highways in Atlanta.
