Just flipped on College Football Live... they had the list of top 10 most hated coaches because of wins, running up the score, or cheating. Woody was #2, Urban was #7, and Tressel was #9.

The rest of the list:
#1 Paul Brown- #3 Earle Bruce- #4 John Cooper #5 Wes Feller #6 John Wilce #8 Francis Schmidt #10 Luke Fickell.
How is this hating....its actually pretty accurate and in some ways a compliment. People don't hate losers, they hate winners. Jesus this gets old, not everything they do is a knock on us.
The entire list was a bit of a joke... Not sure how guys like Nick Saban and Pete Carroll didn't make the top 10
A list without Gary Barnett is dumb, though I guess based on their criteria he can't be hated.
Who cares...the list is stupid. Plus, people don't hate losers unless you're an arrogant turd like Charlie Weis. You win, you stay around longer, people hate. You lose, you get fired quickly. Nothing to see here, move on.
Act like we, as ohio state fans, didnt hate urban meyer while he was at florida...ill be the first to say i did.
do i love he is our coach now? yep.
Take it as a compliment. Like I do Mays and Bayless hate. All just jealous bastards.
We have 3 coaches that are big enough and relevant enough to make the list. Most schools don't have any coaches that anybody even gives a fuck about. I'm damn proud that 3 of the coaches on this list are Buckeyes.
Gary Barnett should unquestionably be on that list, too.

Instead of hated they should say "feared"! When those coaches loose a game its an upset! And they are expected to win everything! The question kind of a backwards complement
Wherever you are, there you be!
Agreed with many of the comments here. I see this as a straight up compliment!

I wish tressell would have run up some scores
Tress shouldn't be on this list. Pete Carroll should. Same with Saban. Rich Rod doesn't belong on the list either (unless you're only counting the opinions of WVA fans, who have been better off since he left), also, what about Charlie Weis? A lot of people hated him when he was at ND.
I wouldn't cheer for Michigan if they were playing the Taliban.
Woody Hayes and UFM are on this list for the winning tress is on for tatgate and winning.

I'd say Woody is that high because of the punch. Outside of OSU circles, I'd guess thats what he is remembered for the most
"Love my State, hate the football"
I'd rather be a successful person people are jealous of, than a "lovable loser".
If you're not hated by at least some people....then you're not doing your job right.
"You win with people." - Woody Hayes
Sounds about right. I'd like to see Woody on top of the list to be %100 honest. Fast forward 5 years and UFM will be firmly entrenched in the top spot.
4-6 seconds from point A to point B and when you get to point B, be pissed off
