  • 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.

    Ohio State 42 Michigan 7

    Somewhere, Woody is smiling. :)

  • kent...glad to see you still visit this page. I was at the game last year. 5 consecutive gold pants.....what a pleasure and privilege it was to witness. Yes, Coach Hayes is indeed smiling.

    GO BUCKS!

  • We're going up north and we're going to pound them and pound them until they quit!

    FIGHT FOR O-HI-O!

    GO BUCKS!

  • 1 person can go suck Denard Robinson's dick.

  • 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.
