Synopsis
Taking a decade-by-decade approach to the Ohio State University football tradition, this collection brings together over 40 stories from the most outstanding voices of the program. The spirit of Buckeyes football is not captured by just one phrase, one season, or one particular game; instead, the student-athletes and coaches who made the magic happen over eight decades blend their experiences to capture the true essence of their beloved school. From Howard "Hopalong" Cassady and Chris Spielman to Cris Carter and the players who helped win the 2002 National Championship, Ohio State fans will relish the intimate stories told by the figures they have come to cherish., Taking a decade-by-decade approach to the Ohio State University football tradition, this collection brings together over 40 stories from the most outstanding voices of the program. The spirit of Buckeyes football is not captured by just one phrase, one season, or one particular game; instead, the student-athletes and coaches who made the magic happen over eight decades blend their experiences to capture the true essence of their beloved school. From Howard Hopalong Cassady and Chris Spielman to Cris Carter and the players who helped win the 2002 National Championship, Ohio State fans will relish the intimate stories told by the figures they have come to cherish., For more than 110 years, Ohio State University has cultivated a rich football tradition that is second to none. Millions of fans have looked forward to each autumn Saturday on the "banks of the Olentangy," where the giant horseshoe otherwise known as Ohio Stadium houses the state of Ohio's true and indispensable pastime. Thousands of young men have been a part of Buckeye football -- an experience that transformed them from wide-eyed freshmen to mature men of pride and accomplishment. In the late 1880s OSU began the undertaking of building a football program; its leaders started organizing financial backers and looking for a coach for this relatively new athletic activity. On May 3, 1890, Buckeye football was born. With a coach named Alexander S. Lilley, who wore a cap with the famed "Block O" emblazoned in the middle (as would a certain coach named Woody more than 60 years later), the first ever Ohio State football game ended with a 20-14 victory over Ohio Wesleyan.

    AAAA++++ SELLER!!!! Book was shipped very quickly and item price was also good. My only complaint is the shipping packaging. This book came loosely placed in a plastic bag so I can't tell if the damage to the dust jacket happened in shipping or it was already in that condition. But, as I already stated, the overall price was good so I shouldn't really complain. Overall, I've had positive experience with hpb-ruby so I'd still definitely recommend buying from them.

    Great book for a great price. Shipped quickly, but only packed in a poly bag, so the book suffered some mild corner damage in shipping. Aside from that, the book matched the description of its condition and I’m happy overall. Great seller!
