Podcast appearances and mentions of Dick Vermeil

Hall of Fame Coach Dick Vermeil joins the 94 WIP Morning Show in the wake of the Eagles' season ending. He thinks that the new offensive coordinator should be able to run whatever offense they want and the front office should back them. He says he has made mistakes in that vein when he was a coach. Coach Vermeil says he finds it difficult to criticize coaching staffs when he is not in the building.

Dick Vermeil joins the Morning Show! The coaching legend draws from his experience when telling the Team the keys to getting through a year-end press conference after a bad season. Vermeil thinks that as long as the Eagles are picking a new offensive coordinator that they have full confidence in, that they should give them free rein to hire new offensive position coaches.

The WIP Morning Show broadcasts from the Borgata as they do every Friday to preview an NFL Playoff Round that won't feature an Eagles matchup. Joe DeCamara tries to get to the bottom if Jon Ritchie truly feels like Nick Sirianni's job as head coach is on the line next season. When Eliot Shorr-Parks joins the show, he says that quarterback Jalen Hurts' role is more at risk. Dick Vermeil and the Team give their picks for the postseason games this weekend. Joe DeCamara collects another Beat the Hammer win and the show ends with Time's Yours.

The 1976 Rose Bowl wasn't necessarily a game for Ohio State to win, but rather a coronation for their National Championship. They were facing Dick Vermeil's Bruins in Pasadena, having already battered UCLA in the regular season, 41-20 at the L.A. Coliseum. The Buckeyes were favored by 15/5 points to do it again and end their season unbeaten, untied and unblemished.  However, with an opportunity to play the top ranked Buckeyes a 2nd time, Vermeil practiced hard instituting double days on his Bruins team as if it was the beginning of the season all over again. And in front of a national audience and 105,464 fans at the Rose Bowl, Ohio State went into halftime of the rematch with just a 3-0 lead. That's when Vermeil called an audible. His vaunted option offense which had scored 20 points off OSU in the first matchup, the most Ohio State had given up all season, hadn't done a thing in the first 30 minutes of the New Year's Day game. So he told his quarterback John Sciarra that in the 3rd quarter they were scrapping the gameplan… they were going to open things up and start passing. And it worked. Sciarra connected with Wally Henry for two scores the 2nd one covering 67 yards and UCLA had a shocking 16-3 lead over the heavily favored Buckeyes. A 54-yard TD run in the 4th quarter by Wendell Tyler made it 23-10 Bruins and that is how it would finish. The last Rose Bowl Woody Hayes would ever coach ended in a dramatic loss to Vermeil and his Bruins led by Rose Bowl Game MVP John Sciarra who finished the game completing 13 of his 19 passes for 212 yards and 2 touchdowns. 50 years later, Sciarra recalls how he could have been the Heisman Trophy winner had the Bruins won the first meeting instead of the second one with Ohio State and how he would never trade the Heisman for that Rose Bowl win he guided his team to. He remembers how he led the team into a meeting to complain to their coach about the two-a-day practices leading up to the Rose Bowl… and tells us Vermeil's shocking answer to them that paved the way for their win. He also recollects how at the half his coach told him they were going to make adjustments and to be ready to let ‘er rip in the 2nd half. And he tells a great story about how his best buddy and fellow former UCLA QB Mark Harmon cast him in a movie and the role he was born to play! But mostly, he reminisces about the greatest half of football he and his Bruin teammates ever played on New Year's Day, 1976 on the Past Our Prime podcast. Learn more about your ad choices.
