During one play in the Bobcats’ bowl win last December, Herman slipped and fell to one knee as he burst off the line on a running play at Louisiana-Monroe’s 2-yard line. The misstep should have come with a white flag, considering the 300-pound defensive tackle opposite him.
“Only [Herman] got up on his knees to pick the guy up and drive him to the back of the end zone,” Bobcats offensive line coach Keven Lightner said. “You just don’t see that.”
Nor do you see what Lightner did as he watched game film the morning after Ohio’s game at Central Michigan in 2011 — a 43-28 win in which OU out-rushed the Chippewas 309-65.
“I just felt sorry for the three-technique playing against him,” Lightner said. “He was physically lifting the guy up off the ground. It was like, ‘Good Lord.’ ”
