Vanderbilt broadcaster Joe Fisher resigns, enters rehab after 'unacceptable' on-air behavior

Joe Fisher, the play-by-play broadcaster for Vanderbilt for the last 23 years, has resigned after “unacceptable” behavior on his weekly coach’s show.

Fisher announced his resignation Thursday on Twitter, and also announced that he’s immediately checking himself into a rehab facility.

I have had the honor of being the Voice of the Commodores for 23 years. Recently I went on the air representing Vanderbilt at a time when I should not have. I was unacceptable to me and to the university. I write this to tell you two things.

First, as of this morning I am checking myself into a rehab facility to address an issue I've struggled with for a long time.
