The Ohio State football program is the bluest of blue bloods in the sport. It is at, or near, the top in all-time wins, winning percentage, Heisman Trophies won, All-Americans produced, and players sent to the NFL.
To reach those ends, the Buckeye program has had to be led by some pretty talented coaches throughout history. Whether it be Woody Hayes, Paul Brown, Jim Tressel, Urban Meyer, or today’s rising star Ryan Day, there’s been plenty of guys that did it their own way and continued the tradition on the banks of the Olentangy. All told, there have been 24 head coaches at OSU.
