I think how people deal with adversity says a lot about their character. In fact, probably nothing says more about a person's character. Woody was a sore loser. When he lost he was angry, misanthropic, spoiled, and childish. He was a great football coach, if how much you win and how you win is the measure--if you don't think that being a role model for the student athletes is important. I can't help thinking the recent total erosion of character at The Ohio is his legacy.

i'm still a young man but anyone not respecting and appreciating what this guy did for college sports and for life in general doesn't know college football. I love OU but this is one of the great MEN of all time in college sports. The GREAT Woody Hayes.

man, Hayes was a bad ass!, he didnt give a damn about anyone but the bucks!

Woody and Anne are buried at the Union cemetary,just north of the OhioState campus. Whenever I visit;their headstone always looks like an OhioState gift shop-buckeyes,scarlet and grey banners,et.al. That is quite a tribute to a man who died 24 years ago.

When President Ford cametoColumbus in 1975 todeliver the Commencement Address at OhioState,he shookhandswith Woody,and commented,"I know exactly how the Columbus Dispatch will run this picture: on the front page,about the fold, with the caption 'Woody Hayes and Friend'"
The editor of the Dispatch had a sense of humor; that is exactly what they did!

Woody died in his sleep, in his own bed. The next day,he was due to give a talk to a
group of fifth graders. (Archie Griffin later filled in for him)

Woody was the first head coach in the Big Ten to start a black kid at quarterback,and was the first Big Ten head coach to hire a black assistant coach.
It was Woody's endorsement that helped launch Ben Espy's political career as city councilman and as an OhioState senator.
God Bless you Woody. 7 days and were up north. I'm sure you will be watching.

Those of us who had the good fortune to know Woody Hayes loved him, warts and all. He was a man with a brilliant mind, a kind heart and a rotten temper- which he tended to lose on national television. For the last 8 years of his life, he devoted himself to *every* charity in central Ohio.

Somewhere, Woody is smiling. :)
