2010 MAC Coach of the YearMichael Anthony Haywood (born February 26, 1964) is a former American collegiate football coach. He previously served as the head football coach at Miami University, as an assistant coach at various other universities for 21 seasons, and was a former football player at the University of Notre Dame.
Haywood was born in Houston, Texas. He attended St. Thomas High School in Houston and then the University of Notre Dame where he played as a wide receiver wearing jersey #1.
In December 2007, Haywood was considered one of the two leading candidates for the head coaching position at the University of Houston, alongside Jack Pardee.[1] However, the job eventually went to Kevin Sumlin. In December 2008, Haywood was named the head coach of the Miami RedHawks.[2] He replaced Shane Montgomery.
After going 1-11 in his first season, Haywood led the Redhawks to an 8-4 record in his second season and a MAC East title. The Redhawks then emerged victorious in the 2010 MAC Championship Game against Northern Illinois University, winning by a final score of 26-21. He was named the 2010 Mid-American Conference football coach of the year.[3]
On December 16, 2010, Haywood was offered and accepted the head football coaching position at the University of Pittsburgh.[4] However, Haywood was arrested in South Bend, Indiana on December 31, 2010 on felony domestic violence charges arising from a custody dispute.[5] He was released on bond on January 1, 2011 and only hours later was fired by Pitt.[6]
