Wayne Woodrow "Woody" Hayes (February 14, 1913 - March 12, 1987) is an American football and coach. He served as head coach at Denison University (1946-1948), University of Miami at Oxford, Ohio (1949-1950), and Ohio State University (1951-1978), composed career college football records of 238 wins, 72 losses, and 10 bonds.
For 28 seasons as head coach of the Ohio State Buckeyes football program, Hayes's team won five national championships (1954, 1957, 1961, 1968, 1970), won 13 Big Ten Conference titles, and garnered a record of 205-61-10. During the last decade of Ohio State, Buckeye Hayes's team faced fierce competition against Wolverines Michigan coached by Bo Schembechler, former bottom player and assistant coach for Hayes. During the stretching of the Michigan-Ohio State football competition, dubbed the "Ten Years of War", the Hayes and Schembechler teams won or shared the Big Ten Conference crowns each season and usually each placed in the national rankings.
Despite his great achievements at Ohio State, Hayes's coaching career ended up embarrassing when he was dismissed from the University after punching Clemson's linebacker Charlie Bauman to intercept the Ohio State pass with two minutes left on the clock in 1978 Gator Bowl. He was inducted into the College of Football Hall of Fame as coach in 1983.

Initial years
Originally from Clifton, Ohio, Hayes is the youngest of three children born from Wayne B. and Effie (nÃÆ' Â © e Hupp) Hayes. She played center at Newcomerstown High School in Newcomerstown, Ohio. At Denison University, he played under coach Tom Rogers, and became a member of the Sigma Chi fraternity. After graduating from Denison in 1935, Hayes went on to serve as an assistant at two Ohio high schools: Mingo Junction in 1935-1936 and New Philadelphia in 1937. When New Philadelphia head coach John Brickels went to accept another position, Hayes was appointed to a position head coach, where he garnered a 17-2-1 record in his first two seasons before enduring a 1-9 record in 1940.
Hayes enrolled in the United States Navy in July 1941, finally boarding the rank of Lieutenant Commander during World War II. He ordered PC 1251 in the invasion of the Palau Islands and the USS destroyer Rinehart in both Atlantic and Pacific operations.
When World War II subsided and Hayes alma mater, Denison University, was pursuing a plan to restore his football program (which had been suspended during the war), it contacted former head trainer Rogers (also in the Navy) about rejoining the program as head coach. Rogers refused, but recommended that his former team captain, Hayes, be named the next head coach. Denison can find and offer an offer to Hayes, which he receives, a few minutes before his naval vessel begins his journey through the Panama Canal - which means Hayes will be an incommunicado for a long time.

Training at Denison and the University of Miami
After returning to Denison in 1946, Hayes fought during his first year, winning just two matches, over Capital and the season finale against Wittenberg. However, the victory triggered 19 consecutive wins, a spike that pushed him to the head coach position at Miami University. Miami is recognized as the "Cradle of Coaches" because of the history of outstanding coaches who started their careers there, such as Paul Brown, Ara Parseghian, Weeb Ewbank, Bill Mallory, Sid Gillman, Randy Walker, and Bo Schembechler. Gillman was Hayes's immediate predecessor in Miami before Gillman moved to the streets to train at the University of Cincinnati, then a major Miami rival. Hayes and Gillman maintain a fierce competition among themselves, combining dislike of each other for other train styles and because they are recruiting competition in the same general area.
In his second year with Miami Redskins, Hayes led the 1950 squad to appear in Salad Bowl, where they beat Arizona State University. The success earned him the position of coaching the Ohio state chief on February 18, 1951, in a controversial decision after the university rejected the application of another renowned trainer, including former Buckeyes chief trainer Paul Brown, Buckeye official Harry Strobel. and Missouri head coach Don Faurot.
Ohio State
As head coach of Ohio State Buckeyes, Hayes led his team to a record of 205-61-10 (.761), including three national championship consensus (1954, 1957 and 1968), two other non-consensus national titles (1961 and 1970). ), 13 Big Ten conference championships, and eight Rose Bowl appearances. Hayes is a three-time winner of the College of the Year Award Football Coach, now known as Paul's "Bear" Bryant Award, and "the subject of anecdotal materials that are more varied and colorful than any other coach or present, including the Knute Rockne fairy tale, according to biographer Jerry Brondfield.
Hayes's basic coaching philosophy is that "no one can win a football game unless they think the game is positive and will agree to pay the price demanded by a team." His conservative football style (especially on offense) is often described as "three meters and a cloud of dust" - in other words, "a muscular frontal muscle attack, fighting muscles, bone by bone, will against will." Basic play, bread and butter in the Hayes manual is a fullback off-guard run or tailback off tackle play. Hayes is often quoted as saying "only three things can happen when you graduate (settlement, a settlement, and interception) and two of them are bad."
Despite this willingness to avoid change, Hayes became one of the first college head coaches to recruit African-American players, including Jim Parker, who played both offensive and defensive tackles on Hayes's first national championship team in 1954. While Hayes is not the first who recruited African-Americans to Ohio State, he was the first to recruit and start large African-Americans there and hire African-American assistant coaches.
Another Hayes recruit, Archie Griffin, remains the only Heisman Trophy winner twice in seven decades of selection. Overall, Hayes has 58 players who get the All-America award under his care. Many famous soccer coaches, such as Lou Holtz, Bill Arnsparger, Bill Mallory, Dick Crum, Bo Schembechler, Ara Parseghian, and Woody's successor Earle Bruce serve as his assistants at various times.
Hayes often uses illustrations from historical events to make a point in his training and teaching. When Hayes was first employed to become head coach at OSU, he also became a "full-time professor of physical education", having obtained his MA in educational administration from Ohio State in 1948. The classes he teaches on campus are usually full, and he is called "Professor Hayes "by students. Hayes also teaches English classes and mandatory vocabulary to his new football players. One of his students was a basketball player named Bobby Knight, who became the legendary basketball coach.
During his time at Ohio State, Hayes's relationship with the faculty members was excellent. Even faculty members who believe that the inter-college athletic roles that grow beyond Hayes's control are personally respected for his commitment to academia, the integrity standards he runs on his program, and his genuine enthusiasm brings him to his hobby as an amateur historian. Hayes often lunch or dinner at the university faculty club, interacting with faculty and administrators.
As a trainer and educator, Hayes was one of the first to use the film as a teaching and learning tool. He is also easy to remember because he can be seen walking across the campus, taking the time to visit the students. When talking to young people, Hayes treats all with respect, regardless of race or socio-economic class. This behavior by Hayes was helpful for the State of Ohio to quell violence and damage from anti-war demonstrations experienced by other campuses in the late 1960s and early 1970s. He really will take the time to communicate with the student leaders. Then the Rex Kern team quarterback said, "Woody is out there in the Oval with the protesters, and he picks up the loudspeakers and tells the students to express their beliefs but is not destructive.He believes in Nixon, and he believes in Establishment, afraid to talk to the students He wants to stay close to action. "Hayes is considered one of the few dignitaries to be respected by the students. His enthusiasm to train and win in such a way that many people across the country consider the following adage true: "What Vince Lombardi is professional football, Woody Hayes is for college football."
During his tenure at Ohio State, Hayes will joke that he considers himself the best recruiter of Notre Dame because if he can not convince the recruitment to come to the State of Ohio than Michigan he will try to direct his recruitment to Notre Dame, which the Ohio state does not play. While Hayes's public attitude was that he refused to play Notre Dame because he was afraid of the polarization of Catholic populations in Ohio, Notre Dame's old athletic director Edward "Moose" Krause said that Hayes had told him that Hayes likes to have Michigan as just a tough game on the Ohio State and that playing with Buckeyes, Notre Dame will reduce that. Although Hayes is clearly afraid of playing more than one "difficult" game of the year, Ohio State still managed to schedule regular season games with Nebraska, Washington, Southern California, UCLA and Oklahoma during his tenure.
After a loss or bond, Hayes will do a dressing room interview while naked. A journalist from his post noted, "He is a bad man so will clean the locker room fast enough."
Controversy
In 1959, after losing 17-0 to USC, Hayes threw a blow to Al Bine's Los Angeles Examiner sportswriter, but failed, and pressed on the brother of Pasadena Independent sports editor Bob Shafer in the back instead. At the May 19 meeting of Big Ten Conference athlete directors and trainers, Hayes almost started a fight with Iowa's athletic director Forest Evashevski, before being curbed.
In 1968, Hayes's team won the game against rivals Michigan, 50-14. At the end of the game, Ohio State held a 44-14 advantage and scored one last goal. Instead of taking a more general extra point kick, Hayes instead opted for a two-point conversion (which did not work), leading many football fans to believe that Hayes ran the score. When asked later why he went for two points, Hayes said, "Because I can not go for three!"
Before 1973 Rose Bowl, Hayes pushed the camera into the face of the news photographer; Hayes was suspended for three games, a $ 2,000 fine, and left California with a subpoena.
In 1977, a late misses in Michigan caused him to attack on ABC cameraman Mike Freedman, who noted his frustrations; Hayes was expelled, under trial by the Big Ten Conference, and fined $ 2,000.
1962 Rose Bowl sound
In the 1961 season, Ohio State won the Big Ten championship, an automatic escape for the Rose Bowl. At that time, the rules of the Big Ten Conference stated that the School Faculty Council should formally approve the journey. In this unusual development, the Ohio State Council voted 28 to 25 against the 1962 Rose Bowl journey, demanded by the head of the university alumni group, on the grounds that the school's academic reputation suffered from overemphasis on the football team.. Another report states that the offer was rejected because the State of Ohio has defeated their opposing candidate, Rose Bowl, UCLA, during the regular season. The decision triggered minor unrest at Ohio State Campus and in the Columbus area. The Columbus Dispatch publishes the names, addresses, and phone numbers of Faculty Members who voted against the trip and the amount of university money they spent on the trip. While Hayes is diplomatic with some faculty members who voted against the trip and urged the students to stop complaining, he did not escape his criticism of the alumni club president who led the charge against receiving a bowl offer.
Comments about My Lai Massacre
Speaking at a soccer party in 1969, Hayes talked about the recent My Lai Massacre. He stated that the Vietnamese in My Lai deserve to die, "and I would not be so sure the women were innocent, the children were obviously innocent - if they were less than five."
Confrontation with Jerry Markbreit
The end of the 1971 rivalry against Michigan in Ann Arbor, furious over what he thought was a defensive offense past offenses committed by Thom Darden of Michigan, Hayes rushed into the field, launched an indecent scolding at referee Jerry Markbreit, and tore up side markers, 15-yard penalty unsportsmanlike. Hayes then throws the penalty flag into the crowd, begins destroying the page marker, and throws the first marker down to the ground like a javelin before being held by a Buckeyes team official; Hayes then assessed an additional 15-yard penalty and was issued. Hayes is suspended for one game and a $ 1,000 fine.
1978 Sugar Bowl
The 1978 Sugar Bowl was the only time that Woody Hayes and Bear Bryant had trained against each other. Bear Bryant Alabama Crimson Tide defeated Woody's Buckeyes with a score of 35-6.
Gator Bowl incident 1978 and dismissal
On December 29, 1978, Buckeyes played in Gator Bowl against Clemson Tigers. At the end of the fourth quarter, the Tamil Tigers lead the Buckeyes 17-15. Quarterback Quarterback Art Schlichter steers Buckeyes into a range of field targets. In the 3rd and 5th positions on Clemson's 24-yard line with 2:30 and run time, Hayes calls the operand instead of running, because Schlichter is having a great match up to that point.
The graduate was intercepted by Clemson's guardian Charlie Bauman, who returned it to the OSU side where he was running out of bounds. After Bauman bounced back, Hayes punched him in the throat, triggering a fight on the benches. Hayes stormed into the field and was rude to the referee. When one of Hayes's own players, offensive midfielder Ken Fritz, tries to intervene, Hayes turns to him and must be controlled by defensive coordinator George Hill. The Buckeyes assessed two unsportsmanlike 15-yard punishment for Hayes attacks on Bauman and abuse of referees. Bauman was not hurt by Hayes's blow and ignored the incident. Although the game was broadcast by ABC, broadcasters Keith Jackson and Ara Parseghian made no comment about the blow. (At that time, all non-tap camera boxes were operated remotely from other sites, and Jackson allegedly did not actually witness the blow, his view of the sidelines being blocked by the top level of the stadium).
After the game, OSU's Athletic Director Hugh Hindman, who plays for Hayes in Miami of Ohio, has been an assistant under him for seven years, personally facing Hayes in the Buckeye locker room. He said that he intended to tell school president Harold Enarson of what was happening, and strongly implied that Hayes had coached his final game at Ohio State. After the exchange of heat, Hindman said he then offered Hayes a chance to resign, but Hayes refused, saying, "That would make it too easy for you, you'd better go and fire me." Hindman later meets Enarson at the country club near Jacksonville, and the two agree that Hayes should leave.
The next morning, Hindman told Hayes that he had been fired. A press conference was held at the hotel where the team had been staying. Tim returns to Columbus around noon, and Hayes leaves the airport in a police car. Regarding Hayes's dismissal, Enarson said that "there are no universities or athletic conferences in the country that will allow coaches to attack college athletes physically." After the incident Hayes reflected on his career by saying, "Nobody underestimates losing more than I do, it's got me in trouble for years, but it also makes an average man a pretty good coach." About two months after the incident, Hayes called Bauman in his dorm room, but did not apologize for his earlier attack. Earle Bruce replaces Hayes as head coach of the state of Ohio.
Years later, Leonard Downie, Jr., former executive editor of The Washington Post and a student journalist at Ohio State, said he regretted not reporting an incident in the 1960s where Hayes instructed a player to revoke his life. helmet then hit his head.
According to the 1994 HBO Documentary American Coach: Men of Vision and Victory , Hindman had put Hayes on notice early in the 1978 season, not only for swing at the ABC cameraman during the 1977 Michigan game but also to hit the player over exercise. In his autobiography of 1989, Bo Schembechler of Michigan wrote that he believes Hayes, who is diabetic and may have high blood sugar, can not believe he hit Bauman. Schembechler also points out that Hayes has maintained that all he's trying to do is snatch the ball.
Before and after the dismissal incident, Hayes was a professor of Military History at Ohio State. His office is in the ROTC building, Converse Hall, across the street from Ohio Stadium. For the rest of his years at OSU, he continued to teach and guide students.
Last day and death
On March 11, 1987, Hayes clearly failed in health when someone drove him into a pickup truck to Dayton to introduce Bo Schembechler, who spoke at a banquet. The organizers have been trying to prevent Hayes from attending, but Hayes insists. He gave a long introduction to Schembechler and then stayed to hear him speak before returning home.
The next morning, March 12, Hayes's wife, Anne finds her dead in her bed at the couple's home. He died of a heart attack at age 74. He was buried at Union Cemetery in Columbus, Ohio.
Legacy
Hayes's lifetime record of 238-72-10 placed him ninth in the NCAA Division I FBS construction victory over time. He was elected into the University of Football Hall of Fame in 1983.
At Hayes' funeral at First Community Church in Grandview, Ohio on March 17, 1987, former president Richard Nixon delivered a speech to a crowd of 1,400, recognizing the friendship that began between the two as a vice president. After meeting Hayes at the reception after Buckeye's victory over Iowa in 1957, Nixon recalled, "I want to talk about football, Woody wants to talk about foreign policy, and you know Woody - we're talking about foreign policy." The next day, more than 15,000 people took part in the memorial service at the Ohio Stadium.
Hayes's commitment to academics at Ohio State is evidenced by his request that donations from family, friends and supporters be given to university academics. After his death and according to his wishes, Wayne Woodrow Hayes Chair at National Security Studies was established at Mershon Center for International Security Studies at Ohio State. Professor John Mueller currently holds the chair. In November 1987, the university dedicated a new Woody Hayes Athletic Center in his memory.
Personal life
Hayes married former Anne Gross in 1942. Anne Hayes is a tough and popular woman in her own, who often jokingly tells at various sports parties, "Woody Divorce? Never! But there are many times I want to kill her!" The couple has one son, Steven, who later became a lawyer and a judge. By chance, younger Hayes will be assigned to the 2003 hearing of former Ohio state Maurice Clarett.
host of World War II film
Due to his knowledge of military history and ongoing popularity, Hayes in the early 1980s hosted six WBNS-TV World War II broadcasts in Columbus, which has served as an official outlet of Ohio State sports media programs for many years, including events football coach. Among the broadcasted films are Patton , Midway , The Wackiest Ship in the Army , The Desert Fox: The Story of Rommel i>, and Tora! Tora! Tora!
Hayes will also provide a salty historical perspective associated with each film. The Hayes segment, depending on the film, was recorded at locations such as Fort Knox, West Point, Yorktown, and Stuttgart, Germany, where he interviewed Manfred Rommel, Lord Mayor of Stuttgart and son of Erwin Rommel.
