College football analyst Kirk Herbstreit has been with ESPN for more than two decades. It’s possible no one analyst is more associated with their sport than Herbstreit is with college football at this point.

There was a time when Herbstreit was just starting out on ESPN, though. That time was 1995.

Video has surfaced of Herbstreit’s first appearance on the Worldwide Leader’s platform. He was serving as a sideline reporter for Texas at Hawaii.

“9/2/95, Texas at Hawaii. Not much here. Sideline reporter @KirkHerbstreit is brand new at ESPN, @MikePereira is your referee and Ricky Williams dominates his first college football game as a true freshman.”

Herbstreit took to Twitter this morning to reminisce.

“That’s crazy. My very first hit I ever did at ESPN in 1995! How lucky was I? First game ever at Hawaii and with future Heisman winner Ricky Williams playing his first game as a Longhorn!” he tweeted.

Herbstreit has since become one of the faces of ESPN, co-hosting College GameDay and becoming the network’s go-to analyst for anything college football.
