Ohio State’s first victory was also their first game, which was played on May 3, 1890. On that day Ohio State played and beat Ohio Wesleyan at Recreation Field.

Alexander S. Lilley was the volunteer coach. He would coach Ohio State for two years and end up with a record of 3-5. That was his last coaching job. He would go on to be a manager for a shipping company.

Urban Meyer’s salary is around $4.5 million a year, while a manager at a shipping company may receive around $100,000. How times have changed!
