It just got a whole lot harder to make bootleg bobbleheads of one of Ohio State’s best known football coaches.
Legendary Ohio State coach Woody Hayes has been legally immortalized through a new trademark filed by the Ohio State University.
The university has been using Hayes’ visage on products and in media for years, and now they have the exclusive rights to do so.
He’s the second Ohio State coach to have his name trademarked, with Urban Meyer having his name trademarked last year.
