outstanding!

This book was amazing. I could not put it down. It is a must for Ohio State fans. I will remember Woody after reading this.

Woody is one of the greatest men of all time.

This book shows Woody Hayes as the true person, not just the ranting coach on the sideline. As an aspiring coach, I see Woody as an excellent model for success. His genuine love and concern for his players is unique and inspiring. This book is a must read for those who want to see Woody as his players, friends, and family see him. Great book about a Great man.

The man his competition loved to hate

I was surprised that such a complete collection of stories and experiences existed. Woody was bigger than life but at the same time he was only a simple man that expected the best from everyone he touched. A must read for all fans--not just Buckeyes!

The GREATEST coach who ever lived

A must read for Buckeye fans. Shows Coach Hayes as he really was.......a hell of a man.

good book

I've been a life-long Buckeye fan. Woody was a GOD. This book does a good job of showing every side of Woody and is worth the read. It's a quick read and interesting throughout.
