Hall of Fame
Chuck Goodyear was a key ingredient in Miami's basketball success from 1974-77, when Miami posted a four-year mark of 70-34 under Hall of Fame head coach Darrell Hedric. Goodyear, a 6-5 forward, is still Miami's 10th all-time leading scorer with 1,212 points. Goodyear was an outstanding shooter throughout his career, as indicated by his career field goal percentage of .511, hitting 497-973 in his four years, the third-best mark in school history. His free throw percentage of .781 also ranks sixth on the all-time list.
The Columbus, Ohio native was a first-team All-MAC selection after averaging 18.1 points his junior season and a second-team all-league pick as a senior after averaging 13.7 as he helped the Redskins win the MAC championship. Goodyear, who became a computer analyst in Dayton after graduating, played with fellow Miami Hall of Famers Archie Aldridge, and 1991 inductees Randy Ayers and John Shoemaker.
