Ayers married Carol Denise Peery of Columbus, Ohio on June 18, 1983. She is a high school Spanish teacher. They have two sons. Ryan Vincent (born July 16, 1986) was a student at the University of Notre Dame, a member of the Fighting Irish basketball team, and now is an assistant coach at his alma mater. Cameron Alexander (born September 18, 1991) played college basketball at Bucknell University and currently plays for the Reno Bighorns of the NBA Development League. Ayers' youngest brother, Tim Ayers, served as mayor and city commissioner of Springfield, Ohio from 1984 to 1990.
Ayers earned a bachelor's degree in Education from Miami in 1978, and in 1981 he earned a master's in Education.
He was drafted in the third round of the 1978 NBA draft by the Chicago Bulls, but was cut from the team and then played professionally in Reno, Nevada for the Reno Bighorns in the fledgling Western Basketball Association.

Ayers began his coaching career at his alma mater, Miami University, in 1978, before moving on to the U.S. Military Academy and Ohio State. His first head coaching position came at Ohio State in 1989, taking the Buckeyes to the top regional seed in the NCAA men's tournament in both 1991 and 1992, but never reaching the Final Four. He was named National Coach of the Year in 1991, and Big Ten Conference Coach of the Year in 1991 and 1992.
In his senior year of 1977–78, Ayers increased his scoring average for the third straight year with 13.4 ppg and had 7.0 rpg. He was named second-team All-MAC as his teammate, Archie Aldridge, earned MAC Player of the Year. Ayers was also named Miami's Defensive Player of the Year. Miami's record was 19-9 but they earned an outright MAC championship and earned a berth in the NCAA tournament.
