A Man Always on the Move Big Ten Conference Official Site
The Official Athletic Site of the B1G Conference - Fielding Harris Yost was always a man on the move, and on a mission. In 1897, Yost met with a professor at Ohio State about coaching football, but a demonstration of a play with the help of office furniture, led the Buckeye educator to think he was crazy.
