From Booklist
Woody Hayes was the Ohio State football coach from 1951 through 1978. His teams won four national titles. In his last few years, his reputation was sullied by sideline outbursts, most notably one in which Hayes punched an opposing player. This very complimentary series of recollections by players, assistant coaches, opponents, and others will erase many of the lingering effects of Hayes' outbursts. He was extraordinarily well read, cared deeply about his players, was selfless with his time, and was a devoted member of the community, often donating appearance fees back to the organizations at which he spoke. Ohio State football fans will feel vindicated by the testimony concerning Hayes' good works, but they will most enjoy the anecdotes about his temper. (Former Hayes assistant and then longtime rival Bo Schembechler recalls the time when he and Hayes threw chairs at each other in a dispute over blocking technique.) This account will please anyone interested in the history of college football. Wes Lukowsky

Book Description
Woody Hayes, arguably, was one of the most colorful characters college football has ever known. Most coaches today are more computer chips and board chairmen than they are hands-on coaches. The real coaches rant and rave, they make mistakes, they wander through hospital wards cheering the infirm, and they deeply care about whether their charges graduate and make lives for themselves after football. That describes Woddy Hayes perfectly. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
