Early years

Born in Clifton, Ohio, Hayes played center at Newcomerstown High School in Newcomerstown, Ohio. At Denison University, he played tackle under coach Tom Rogers. After graduating from Denison in 1935, Hayes went on to serve as an assistant at two Ohio high schools: Mingo Junction in 1935-36 and New Philadelphia in 1937. When New Philadelphia head coach John Brickels left to accept another position, Hayes was elevated to the head coaching position, where he put together a 17-2-1 record in his first two seasons before enduring a 1-9 record in 1940.

As World War II was winding down and Hayes' alma mater, Denison University, was pursuing plans to reinstate its football program (which had been suspended during the war), it contacted former head coach Rogers (also in the Navy) about rejoining the program as head coach. Rogers declined, but recommended that his former team captain, Hayes, be named the next head coach. Denison was able to locate and cable Hayes an offer, which he accepted, minutes before his Navy ship was to begin the passage through the Panama Canal — meaning Hayes would have been unreachable for an extended period of time. The Panama Canal is a waterway in Central America which joins the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. ...

Upon returning to Denison in 1946, Hayes struggled during his first year, winning only the season finale. However, that victory sparked a 19-game winning streak, a surge that propelled him into the head coaching position at Miami University. This institution is recognized as the "Cradle of Coaches", because of its history of outstanding coaches starting their careers there, such as Paul Brown, Ara Parseghian, Weeb Ewbank, Bill Mallory, Sid Gillman, Randy Walker, and Bo Schembechler. In his two years with the Redskins, Hayes led the 1950 squad to an appearance in the Salad Bowl, where they defeated Arizona State University. That success led him to accept the Ohio State head coaching position on February 18, 1951.

Ohio State head coach

As head coach of the Ohio State Buckeyes, Hayes led his teams to a 205-61-10 record (.761), including three national championships (1954, 1957 and 1968), 13 Big Ten conference championships, and four of the team's eight Rose Bowl appearances. Hayes considered the "greatest victory" of his career the 42-21 win over the University of Southern California during the 1974 Rose Bowl. Three-time winner of the The College Football Coach of the Year Award, now known as the Paul "Bear" Bryant Award, Hayes was "the subject of more varied and colorful anecdotal material than any other coach past or present, including fabled Knute Rockne," according to biographer Jerry Brondfield.

Hayes' basic coaching philosophy was that "nobody could win football games unless they regarded the game positively and would agree to pay the price that success demands of a team." His conservative style of football (especially on offense) was often described as "three yards and a cloud of dust"—in other words, a "crunching, frontal assault of muscle against muscle, bone upon bone, will against will." The basic, bread-and-butter play in Hayes's playbook was a fullback off-tackle run.

Despite this seeming willingness to avoid change, Hayes became one of the first major college head coaches to recruit African-American players (He wasn't the first to recruit African-Americans at Ohio State, but the first to recruit and start African-Americans in large numbers there) and hire African-American assistant coaches. One of those players, Archie Griffin, remains the only two-time Heisman Trophy winner in seven decades of selections. In addition, Hayes saw 58 players earn All-America accolades under his tutelage, while many notable football coaches, such as Lou Holtz, Bill Arnsparger, Bill Mallory, Dick Crum, Bo Schembechler, Ara Parseghian and Woody's successor, Earle Bruce, served as his assistants.

Hayes would often use illustrations from historical events to make a point in his coaching and teaching. When Hayes was first hired to be the head coach at OSU, he was also made a "full professor of physical education," having earned an M.A. degree in educational administration from Ohio State in 1948. The classes that he taught on campus were usually full, and he was called "Professor Hayes" by students. Hayes also taught mandatory English and vocabulary classes to his freshman football players. One of his students was a basketball player named Bobby Knight, who later became a legendary basketball coach. A Master of Arts is a postgraduate academic masters degree awarded by universities in North America and the United Kingdom (excluding the ancient universities of Scotland and Oxbridge. ... A vocabulary is a set of words known to a person or other entity, or that are part of a specific language. ...

During his time at Ohio State, Hayes' relationships with faculty members were particularly good. Even those members of the faculty who believed that the role of intercollegiate athletics was growing out of control respected Hayes personally for his commitment to academics, the standards of integrity with which he ran his program, and the genuine enthusiasm he brought to his hobby as an amateur historian. Hayes often ate lunch or dinner at the university's faculty club, interacting with professors and administrators. Wikipedia does not yet have an article with this exact name. ...

As a coach and an educator, Hayes was one of the first to use the motion picture as a teaching and learning tool. He was also memorable in that he could be seen walking across campus, taking the time to visit with students. When talking to young people, Hayes treated all of them equally and with respect, without regard to race or economic class. (This behavior by Hayes was helpful to Ohio State in avoiding the violence and damage that other college campuses suffered in the late 1960s/early 1970s. He would actually take the time to communicate with student leaders. Hayes was considered one of the few authority figures that students then had respect for.) His enthusiasm for coaching and winning was such that many across the nation consider the following maxim to be true: "What Vince Lombardi was to professional football, Woody Hayes was to college football."

During his tenure at Ohio State, Hayes considered himself to be Notre Dame's best recruiter. Woody refused to play Notre Dame because he was afraid of polarizing the Catholic population in Ohio. Because the Irish and Buckeyes didn't play each other, Hayes would make every effort to sell a potential recruit on Notre Dame if he was unable to land him, rather than face the prospect of having the player go to Michigan, referred to by Hayes as "that school up north."

Controversies

Woody Hayes confronts Jerry Markbreit during a 1971 college football game between Michigan and Ohio State

Hayes' volatile temper was often on display during key games; a serious character flaw which often overshadowed his coaching ability. One acquaintance said of Hayes, "Woody's idea of sublimating is to hit someone." In 1956, Hayes attacked a television cameraman following a defeat to the University of Iowa, which was followed three years later by an incident in which he took a swing at Los Angeles Examiner sportswriter Al Bine, but missed and instead struck the brother of Pasadena Independent sports editor Bob Shafer.

The Trojan Shrine, better known as Tommy Trojan located in the center of University of Southern California campus. ...

Another loss to Iowa in the 1960s resulted in Hayes cutting his face with the large ring on his left hand. His rage with that team stemmed from his feud with Hawkeyes head coach and athletic director, Forest Evashevski. In a May 1965 meeting of Big Ten Conference athletic directors and coaches, Hayes nearly started a fight with Evashevski. Forest Evashevski (born February 19, 1918 in Detroit, Michigan) was a college football player at the University of Michigan and a college football coach and athletic director at the University of Iowa. ...

Hayes had also been seen on television on occasion striking himself in the head and biting his own hand in frustration.

In two instances against archrival Michigan, both in Ann Arbor, his fury also got the best of him: in 1971, he ran onto the field and confronted referee Jerry Markbreit and tore up sideline markers, receiving an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. Hayes was furious over what he thought was a missed defensive pass interference foul committed by Thom Darden of Michigan. After getting the flag, Hayes began ripping up the yard markers and throwing the first-down marker into the ground like a javelin, prompting another unsportsmanlike conduct flag. Six years later, a late fumble caused him to charge an ABC television cameraman who recorded his frustration. The latter incident resulted in Hayes being put on probation by the Big Ten Conference.

In between those incidents, Hayes' ejection from two separate Rose Bowl appearances also created headlines. Prior to the 1973 contest, Hayes pushed a camera into the face of a news photographer, screaming, "That'll take care of you, you son of a bitch." Three years later, after UCLA had stunned the Buckeyes and cost them a national championship, Hayes refused to let anyone speak to the media following the game. The University of California, Los Angeles (generally known as UCLA) is a public research university located in Los Angeles, California, United States. ...

Ultimately, Hayes' volatile temper ended his career. On December 29, 1978, in the Buckeyes Gator Bowl contest against the Clemson Tigers, Hayes punched Clemson middle guard Charlie Bauman after Bauman intercepted a pass and returned it along the Buckeye sideline in the closing seconds of the game. is the 363rd day of the year (364th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

Hours after returning to Columbus, Hayes was informed that he had been fired. After the incident, Hayes reflected on his career by saying, "Nobody despises to lose more than I do. That's got me into trouble over the years, but it also made a man of mediocre ability into a pretty good coach."

1961 Team Denied Rose Bowl Trip by Ohio State Faculty Council

In the 1961 Season, Ohio State won the Big Ten Championship, qualifying them for The Rose Bowl. At the time, Big Ten Conference rules stated that the school's Faculty Council must officially approve of the Bowl Trip. In an unusual development, The Ohio State Faculty Council by a margin of 28 to 25 voted to deny The Buckeyes the Rose Bowl Trip. This sparked minor rioting on the Ohio State Campus and in the Columbus Area. The Columbus Dispatch as a reaction to the vote, published the names, addresses and phone numbers of those Faculty Council Members who voted against the trip as well as the amount of University money that they spent on trips.

It's widely believed that Jack Fullen (Who was head of the OSU Alumni Association and a critic of the Football Program and Hayes to the point where Hayes and Fullen carried on a long time feud with each other.) persuaded enough Faculty Council Members (Many of whom were also critics of the Football Program) to vote against the Rose Bowl Trip.

The Punch

In 1978 Ohio State had an average season and were playing in the Gator Bowl aginst Clemson. Late in fourth quarter, the Buckeyes were down by two points. Quarterback Art Schlichter drove the Buckeyes down the field. On third and five, Coach Hayes had a choice. They could try to run for it, but because Art was having a great game so they tried to pass and the pass fell into the hands of a Clemson defender who ran it to the OSU sideline. As soon as his hands rose to cheer, Woody came from nowhere and punched the linebacker in the chest. The next day the legendary coach was forced to quit. For the stadium, see Gator Bowl Stadium. ...
