Anthony Munoz is a beloved figure in the state of Ohio. Ohioans treasure and cherish what Munoz did for the Cincinnati Bengals. He truly transformed that franchise, guiding the Bengals to their first Super Bowl in his second season with the team. Munoz helped the Bengals reach two Super Bowls, forming the centerpiece of an elite offensive line which created the most successful decade in team history.
Before Munoz made it big in Ohio, however, he turned down the Ohio State Buckeyes. He shared a story which involved iconic Ohio State coach Woody Hayes.
Munoz appeared on Trojan Conquest Live, the USC YouTube show co-hosted by Tim Prangley and Rick Anaya at The Voice of College Football.
In this past Sunday’s show (the permalink is there for you to click on, but you can also simply type “Trojan Conquest Live 14” into the YouTube search field), Munoz recalls an occasion when he had a chance to have lunch with Woody Hayes.
What happened next is a source of regret for Munoz, but it contains a life lesson about having an open mind and looking at life through a larger lens.
Munoz shares this story at 11:45 in the video.
