In a story posted Saturday on the social media site, Jeff Snook, a published author with deep Ohio State ties, claimed that Herman was the one who told McMurphy about Smiths past. It was sparked by Hermans anger over losing Lake Travis receiver Garrett Wilson to the Buckeyes, Snook claimed.
For those who have asked for my response to Jeff Snooks claim Saturday: I have never revealed my sources in my nearly four decade journalistic career & I am not going to start now. However, I will say unequivocally that Tom Herman was not my source, McMurphy tweeted.
