It’s a 1968 Woody Hayes original that’s become part of Buckeye lore: when asked why he went for the two-point conversion instead of an extra point when Ohio State led Michigan 50-14 in the final minutes of the fourth quarter, Hayes reportedly said, “Because I couldn’t go for 3”. The story is the stuff of legend, and its veracity is...somewhat questionable, but we’re sticking by it with a super-soft tee to rep one of the Buckeyes’ best coaches of all time. Pay homage.

Use these body measurements as a guide to select the size that's right for you. Our tees are designed with a relaxed fit that runs true to size. If you are at the lower end of a size range, expect a looser feel, in the middle the fit will be balanced, and at the top end it may feel more fitted.

How to Measure
  1. Chest Measurement
    Measure around the fullest part of the chest area and keep tape level under your arms and across your back.
  2. Waist Size
    Measure your natural waistline by placing the tape around the narrowest part of your torso, typically just above your belly button.
  3. Garment Length
    For accurate garment length, measure from the top of your shoulder down to where you want the hem to fall.
  4. Sleeve Measurement
    Start at the center of the back of your neck, run the tape across your shoulder, and down to your wrist with arm straight for a full sleeve measurement.

Sizing

Our t-shirt is designed with a relaxed fit that runs true to size. It's made from a soft cotton blend that may shrink slightly after washing, so we recommend washing cold and tumble drying on low to help maintain the fit. Check the Size Guide for fit tips.

Pay Homage

Woody Hayes

Five national championships, 13 Big Ten titles, and 28 seasons on the Ohio State sideline only tell part of the story. Woody Hayes lives on in the details Buckeye fans still picture clearly. The gray hat. The stance near the line of scrimmage. The rivalry moments that grew bigger every time they were retold. His era remains one of the most familiar chapters in Ohio State football memory.
