Yost, Fielding

American football coach

in full Fielding Harris Yost, byname Hurry Up

born April 30, 1871, Fairview, W.Va., U.S.

died Aug. 20, 1946, Ann Arbor, Mich.

American collegiate football coach at the University of Michigan (Michigan, University of) (1901–23, 1925–27) and athletic director (1921–41), who became famous for his “point-a-minute” teams (average 49.8 points per game to opponents .07) that had a 55-game winning streak (1901–05) during which they were tied only once (by the University of Minnesota) before the University of Chicago finally beat them.

Yost taught school for a year in Ohio, where he learned to play football. He attended Ohio Normal University (Ada, later Ohio Northern University; 1891–94) but left without taking a degree. After working in the West Virginia oil fields, he played tackle for the University of West Virginia (Morgantown; 1895–97; LL.B., 1897). Before he became coach at Michigan, Yost coached at Ohio Wesleyan University (1897, Delaware), the University of Nebraska (1898, Lincoln), the University of Kansas (1899, Lawrence), and Stanford University (1900, California), at each of which schools he won a conference championship.

Teams he coached at Michigan won 164 games, lost 29, and tied 10. They had eight undefeated seasons and won or tied for eight Big Ten (Western Conference) championships. He won his nickname from his constantly repeated admonition to his players, both in practice and in games, to “hurry up.” Swift execution of plays was the key to his coaching success.

Yost was also a practicing lawyer, public speaker, and successful businessman.
