Some newer Ohio State fans may not have as much vitriol for former ESPN analyst Mark May as some others do, but there’s no doubt May loved to say things just to rile up Buckeye fans. Some of it may stem from his Pitt team getting bludgeoned 72-0 by Ohio State during his playing days, but no matter the reason, May seemed to never say anything nice about OSU. Heck, he even went out of his way to make an appearance out of nowhere just to get under Ohio State fans’ skin just prior to the Fiesta Bowl last year. For the longest time, May was enemy No. 1 for Buckeye Nation.

And that’s it for our list of ten personalities that are villains to Buckeye Nation to this day. Who did we miss? Feel free to chime in on our social media sites below.
