Downie Jr. worked for The Lantern (Ohio State's student newspaper) in the early 1960s. He had several memorable moments, especially his time with the legendary Hayes.
In a story reported in The Lantern, Downie said: "If the team lost or tied, he would conduct an interview in the nude. He was an ugly guy, so it would clear the locker room out pretty fast."
