WVU announces 2013 Most Loyals award winners by caroline peters staff writer @dailyathenaeum

Four individuals have been granted the West Virginia University Most Loyals Awards for their dedication to WVU. Jack Rossi, the 2013 Most Loyal Alumni Mountaineer, graduated from WVU in 1970. During his stay at WVU, Rossi studied business administration and accounting. Rossi is currently a chairman of the board of directors of the Charleston Area Alliance and Arnett & Foster in Charleston. Rossi is also a member of the WVU Alumni Association. “I was shocked to find I have been recognized as a Most Loyal, if you want to know the truth. I never ran a campaign. I just do my thing every day and all day for the Mountaineers,” Rossi said. “The feeling I have for being recognized is indescribable. I’m very humbled to be receiving this award, and it’s beyond my expectations.” Rossi said he is proud to be a Mountaineer and has been able to accomplish things because of his alma mater.

Judie Charlton, the winner of the Most Loyal Faculty Award, is currently the vice dean for clinical affairs at the WVU School of Medicine. Charlton is also the chief medical officer at WVU Healthcare and an ophthalmologist specializing in glaucoma. Charlton attended the WVU School of Pharmacy and the WVU School of Medicine. “I was very surprised to have won the Most Loyal award. I didn’t even know I’d been nominated,” Charlton said. “I grew up in West Virginia, and I was lucky enough to have scholarships that West Virginia provided. West Virginia was able to help me go to school for pharmacy, and they also provided me with opportunities to go to ophthalmology school. I’m very grateful.” Charlton said her biggest accomplishment is being able to work in the health department, and she’s grateful to have the opportunity WVU provides. “The thing that I like most about WVU is that it gives people opportunities, so that anyone who is willing

Editor’s note: This is the second story in a four-part series that will be continued throughout the semester. Only six-and-a-half months into the job, University Place apartments are looking more like a future building than a nondescript construction site.

Construction continues for University Place student housing complexes

“We are beginning to go vertical with the building,” said Andy Dye, site superintendent for Turner Construction, the company managing the University Place project. “For the most part, this job consists of concrete, deep foundations.” One of the final steps to building the frame of University Place is a cold-form metal framing panelized system, an innovative trend in construction.

“(This type of construction) has been prominent in other parts of the country, (especially) out West. The benefits to it are that rather than doing your construction where you build your structure then you fill in walls after the fact. That comes out all in one piece and you have an exterior skin on the outside. That way, once it’s erected and set

WVU students make ‘A Pledge for Life’ By Summer Ratcliff City Editor @SummerRatcliff

There are approximately 120,000 people on the national transplant waiting list. One person who donates organs, tissues and corneas can help up to 50 people, yet each day 18 people will die because they do not receive the lifesaving transplant they so desperately need. The Mountaineer Ma-

niacs partnered with the Center for Organ Recovery & Education to battle these tragic numbers by registering students and faculty on the campus of West Virginia University as organ donors. In 2011, Nefeterius McPherson, of Killeen, Texas, was fighting for her life in a Washington, D.C. hospital because of a rare bile duct and liver disease. She was placed on the liver transplant waiting list and continued to grow sicker.

At the same time, Taitlyn Shae Hughes, a 12-year-old West Virginia native, had a brain hemorrhage from an AVM rupture and passed away. Just a year earlier Taitlyn had told her parents if anything ever were to happen to her she wanted to be an organ donor. On Nov. 6, 2011, McPherson successfully underwent a liver transplant and received a liver from Hughes. From that day McPherson has made it her mission to

help save lives. “I have made it my mission to use our story to help save other lives, but it really isn’t about Taitlyn or me, it’s about the bigger picture,” McPherson said. “I was lucky, but there are so many people who are not as fortunate because there is a shortage of organ donors.” At the time McPherson became extremely ill she was working as a political appointee for the Obama administration and as a

press secretary for U.S. trade representative Ron Kirk. While she worked through the sickness when she was able, she soon found herself in and out of the hospital on a regular basis. Since receiving her lifesaving liver transplant, McPherson has been able to go back to working in the legal field and doing the things she loves. “Organ donation has given me a second chance

at life, it is truly a gift that you can never repay,” she said. “It allowed me to go from being sick and basically in a race against time to find a new liver, to me being at a point where I can live life. It has allowed me to what I at one point could not do because I was too ill.” When McPherson learned her organ donor was a child she was shocked. She learned

ROTC programs offer unique challenge for students By Meghan Bonomo Staff Writer @DailyAthenaeum

The ROTC programs available at West Virginia University challenge students to go above and beyond the average college experience. Army ROTC and Air Force ROTC are available through the University and are commissioning programs focused on instilling leadership into students and leading them toward serving their country. Lawrence Parella is a Major in the U.S. Army and an assistant professor of Military Science at WVU. She

works closely with the cadets in the Army ROTC program. “They sign a contract with the United States Army that basically (syas) the student promises the Army they’re going to finish school with a bachelor’s degree and will commission as a second lieutenant, whether that be on active duty, Army Reserve or Army National Guard. We commission in those three components,” Parella said. Students may enter the program at any time from the first semester of their freshman year all the way up to the first semester of their junior year.

The program is set up into freshman, sophomore, junior and senior components. Cadets study and graduate with a degree of their choice with an added minor in Military Science. “The normal college student has their academic schedule, maybe a parttime job, friends, social life, fraternity, sorority, whatever they’re involved in, other student organizations,” Parella said. “Cadets have all of those things, but they also have Army ROTC, which is requiring them to get up at 5:30 in the morning, come here and do physical fitness training.” Students in ROTC are

Maniacs to hold events during busy weekend The Mountaineer Maniacs are gearing up for a weekend full of West Virginia University sporting events. The Maniacs will continue the sale of their ‘6th Man’ basketball T-shirts today as well as each day next week in the Mountainlair Commons from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. The T-shirts are $10 each, and all proceeds will benefit the Norma Mae Huggins Cancer Fund. “This is a great way to get an awesome shirt and contribute to a great cause,” said Chris Northrup, executive director of the Mountaineer Maniacs. The Maniacs will also host this season’s first men’s basketball Chalk Talk with head coach Bob Huggins today at noon in the Mountainlair Food Court. “With the kickoff to our basket-

ball season (today), we are excited to have Coach Huggins in the Lair for our first basketball chalk talk of the year,” Northrup said. “In addition to previewing the game, Coach Huggins will pass out pizza to students and will sign the ‘6th Man’ shirts for anyone who has purchased one.” Prior to the women’s basketball game tonight, the Mountaineer Maniacs will host a tour of the WVU basketball practice facility for the first 200 students present. The tour, conducted by assistant to the head coach Billy Hahn, will begin at 4 p.m. and will conclude with a pizza party in the Hall of Traditions for all attendees. —slr

required to commit to the time of physical training, be physically fit and also maintain good grades. “It’s a challenging program, and it draws students that are looking for something more than just going to college. They are also looking to serve when they’re finished with school,” Parella said. “We fill the ranks as successfully as we do because we’re an organization that people want to be a part of. “I would not call us elite or anything like that, but you have to be a little bit above the regular student average to be a part of the ROTC program.”

Kyle Skaggs, a sophmore international studies student and Army ROTC cadet, is working toward completing his degree and will then be moving on to serve in the military full time. “My parents are both in the military, (and) I wanted to go to college, so doing ROTC and becoming an officer seemed like the best thing,” Skaggs said. “I also joined the Guard so I could pay for my school, and I want to be in the Army, so this was the best choice.” The program offers opportunities to participate in Ranger Challenges in the fall with a smaller group of people that compete against

other schools. “There’s (about) ten events and it’s over two days,” Skaggs said. “I like doing that because you meet some really good people in the program and you develop your skills as a cadet.” The cadets share a common goal of becoming officers in the military branch they choose, and they become a part of WVU while learning the core beliefs of their branch.

With six floors left to be constructed, the view from University Place will be entirely unobstructed as the building continues to go up in elevation.

Continued from page 1 up, your building is 100 percent dry from the outside,” he said. Dye, who is spearheading the labor-intensive work on site, said this team is constructing this building to be as structurally sound as possible, to make sure the apartments are here to stay. “Over the course of the next four months, we’re going to fly (the) panels … And they’re going to ring around the exterior of the building. We’re going to set panels on the interior, where the corridors are, and then we’re going to hang floor joists between the two structural walls,” Dye said. A joist is one of the horizontal supporting pieces that runs the length of the would-be floor, ceiling or roof and is typically made of wood, steel or concrete. After all of that is in place, the decking will be put in and the system will start

all over – six or seven more times for the North and South Towers, respectively, until the apartment buildings are completed. Turner Construction, the main contractor for the site and one of the largest construction management companies in the U.S., faced many challenges when they started the planning for University Place more than nine months ago. “We knew this job was going to be a difficult one due to its location and the slope of the ground from University (Avenue) down to Grant Avenue,” Dye said. “Vertically speaking, not on the slope, there’s between 60-70 feet from one point to the other, and construction equipment is very difficult to work off of because they need flat areas.” One problem the workers needed to solve before any construction could begin was to install a support system of concrete placed in horizontal steps to prevent sliding and provide a stable ground for the cranes and

trucks. An entirely different system is used to create the foundation for the buildings, however. Several metal caissons – watertight retaining chambers that serve as a foundation support – are drilled and placed into the ground where the structure will go. Anything can be put on the top disks, such as poured concrete, for example, which will transfer the pressure across the floor and down to the bedrock. “There’s around 6,000 yards of concrete spread out over 201 caissons. These caissons essentially go down to bedrock,” Dye said. “Some of them are upward of 90 feet in length, so a lot of time and effort goes into making sure this things doesn’t sink later.” Dye, a graduate of West Virginia University, is no stranger to the ins-and-outs of constructing structures of this size. “I graduated in civil engineering in 2006 from West Virginia University. When I

graduated, I worked in Morgantown for three and a half years at Mon General Hospital. Three years after that, I was working in downtown Pittsburgh,” Dye said. With a college degree in civil engineering, Dye said there are two paths: become a designer or work out in the field. “I decided I wanted to work out in the construction field because I like being out interacting with the tradesmen and everyone else,” he said. Coming back to work on this project was perfect for Dye, because he is the only person on the staff who is familiar with the area and its potential complications. He said the proximity to his home was an added benefit. “It keeps my commute short. I’m working for a former professor, and this is a job in Morgantown – the place where I live. It’s (an) ideal job for me,” he said. Dye’s job consists of ensuring the quality, safety and installation of the work. He also makes the schedule

and sequencing and keeps everyone on task. Another of Dye’s roles consists of keeping in mind the logistics of the site, such as making sure the crane pad provides ample room for the crane to move around. “I try to work three weeks ahead (of everyone else),” Dye said. Dye and the rest of the Turner Construction team are only managers or architects, designers and engineers. The men who are doing the building are all under private contractors. These workers will face a new hurdle when the cold weather kicks in. “When it’s winter time, you have approximately nine and a half to 10 hours of daylight, sometimes less. You have to maximize that when you have an expensive crane,” Dye said. “For construction nowadays, everything is so fastpaced. You’re building a structure in the winter time in a lot of these jobs. We just have to monitor p’s a q’s a

little bit closer to make sure that we’re not doing anything that will affect the concrete or any other substrate later.” The completion date is determined through researched production numbers. The site managers calculate how much manpower is needed and how much time they have to determine the necessary resources. This also helps to estimate the cost of the project. “We’ve spent $25-30 million in raw materials,” said David Martinelli, the owner of Paradigm Development Group. Martinelli said students should expect to see the building coming together much quicker from here to the end of the process. The expected opening for University Place Apartments is fall 2014, just in time for students to move in. For more updates and projected images of the completed building, visit http://uplace.wvu.edu.

parents if anything should happen to her that she wanted to be an organ donor, that just blew me away,” McPherson said. “At the age of 11, most kids are not thinking about something like organ donation. It just shows how wise beyond her years she was.” As a part of McPherson’s goal to help Hughes’ change the world, she contacted

the Mountaineer Maniacs and invited them to help spread the message of organ donation. “The Maniacs chose to become involved in this campaign because of Nefeterius’ connections to WVU and her passion for creating awareness for organ donation,” said Elayna Conard, Mountaineer Maniacs community service director.

“The Maniacs were excited to represent this project because of our mission to inspire students to enjoy every aspect of being a Mountaineer from sporting events to community service.” Over the last month the Maniacs have encouraged WVU students to make a pledge for life and sign up to become an organ donor.

The Maniacs’ organ donation challenge will continue throughout the next week. Students may visit the table set up in the Mountainlair or register on the CORE website. “I’m sure Taitlyn did not know exactly how she was going to change the world, but I believe she is going to do so by helping to change mindsets about organ do-

nation,” McPherson said. “Organ donation sees no race, gender, age, financial status or social class, and that’s a very beautiful thing.” For more information about organ donation or to register as an organ donor. visit http://pledge.core.org/ wvu/.

editorial

Maniacs recruit organ donors Organ donation can be a sensitive subject. Many immediately find the topic gruesome, like a real-life Frankenstein. Others are more open to the idea but are unsure of what to do to become an organ donor or what exactly it means to be one. In 2012, 120,000 men, women and children required an organ donation to save their lives. Each day, 18 people die because they did not receive the organs they needed. We all have the ability to help these people. Organ donations are often performed only hours after an individual passes, because organs themselves are not easily stored and must be transferred immediately. Kidneys, hearts, livers, lungs, intestines and pancreases can all be donated. Not only do these transplants save lives, other types of tissue transfers can do so, as well. Tissue donations such as corneas, the middle ear, skin, heart valves, bone, veins, cartilage, tendons and ligaments are also often accepted. Organ donors are not always deceased, however.

gan donation and 90 percent support organ donations. However, these figures are accompanied by 30 percent of people who have no idea what measures to take to become an organ donor. While many sign up to become organ donors when renewing their license, it is also possible to register any time at www.organdonor.gov. You can also keep an eye out for the Mountaineer Maniacs, who have teamed up with the Center for Organ Recovery and Education to help spread awareness of the need for organ donors, give students a way to learn more about the process and offer the chance to register to become an organ donor. Hopefully, drawing attention to the urgent need for organ donors will encourage others to consider becoming one themselves and ultimately save multiple lives later on.

Maintaining a healthy lifestyle

Apple has fallen far from the tree benjamin russell columnist

The Student Rec Center is a great place for students to work out, socialize and lead a healthier lifestyle.

austin rempel columnist

I read an article in the New York Times about the FDA banning Iclusig, a drug designed to help leukemia patients. This move in medical censorship is based on evidence that Iclusig has serious side effects, including risks of blindness, heart attacks, amputations and death. This brings into mind the number of drugs to hit the market in the last few decades and the recalls because of side effects or addiction issues. Thalidomide. Methaqualone. Vioxx. Avandia. The list goes on. Manufacturer recalls and failure to pass FDA standards are just a part of the health issues plaguing our country. Many of the foods we eat are deemed unacceptable to countries around the world, yet we continue to gorge ourselves on these unhealthy products. Farmed salmon,

ractopamine (a meat additive), brominated vegetable oil and arsenic-based drugs given to farm animals are just a few on an ever-growing list. The fact that the U.S. is No. 33 on the list of life expectancy, one of the lowest in the first world, is startling. Obesity, diabetes and diet-related conditions are on the rise while national test scores in our schools have stagnated. We live an increasingly sedentary lifestyle, with a large percentage of our people working jobs that require hours upon hours of sitting. This is worsened by the fact that eating at fast food restaurants is cheaper and more convenient for a society constantly on the go. The image painted by this information is twofold. The first is those in charge of our food and drug standards really don’t care. The second is we don’t seem to care, either. These problems are equally prevalent in West

Virginia as they are elsewhere in the nation, but we can take steps to improve our health. Not only will this increase our lifespans, but being healthier in body can cause an upswing in mental health. There is evidence to suggest a positive link between physically feeling well and mentally feeling well. Simple steps can be taken to improve these issues, and they’re small enough that we will hardly notice the change. The first is an increase in exercise. Things like taking the steps instead of the elevator, or walking from Walnut to Beechurst or from Towers to Engineering in lieu of the PRT. Cooking at home is both healthier and cheaper than eating out, but it’s important to buy the right foods. Organic is sometimes better, though the cost can be prohibitive. To help defray the cost, look for sales and freeze things until needed. Water should replace sugary,

Wythe Woods/THE DAILY ATHENAEUM

carbonated beverages. It’s also important to correctly portion food, as overeating healthy things is still unhealthy. Another large piece to the puzzle is sleep. It is important to schedule regular times to properly rest, but we do that less and less. We sleep sporadically, if at all. This is important for mental and physical clarity and for the overall health of the body, as the times you’re REMing are the times your body brings out the cleanup crew. These are all small steps that will have drastic differences. I’m human and just as bad about it as the next guy, but knowing what needs to be done and working towards that goal is the first move towards improvement. If we stick together, create systems of accountability and agree to form new habits as a group, we’ll all be healthy, wealthy and wise before we know it. daperspectives@mail.wvu.edu

Apple has been on a steady decline since the unfortunate death of one of the greatest innovative minds of our time, Steve Jobs. As an owner of an iPhone, iPad and a Mac, I have been disappointed with the current disposition of this previously elite technological power. With the release of the iPhone 5S and 5C, there really was not anything new Apple brought to the table. It was almost as if they took the iPhone 5 and simply redesigned it with all the same parts, just stretched thinner. Apple has always been on another level when it comes to innovation, but there are many reasons why they have fallen significantly in the ranks. Apple is known for incessantly creating new designs unseen elsewhere on the market. The first iPhone was released in 2007, which makes the phone a little more than 6 years old. Thus, people have probably become a little accustomed to innovation being at the palm of their hand. Jobs revolutionized the way people use the Internet, communicate and experience life. It took him the better part of his life to be able to accomplish these standards of excellence. Apple has been making it easier to buy and experience music for a long time now, first with the release of the iPod, then with the creation of the iTunes Store and now with applications like iTunes Radio, which expose listeners to new and quality music. They have been enhancing the quality and resolution capability in cameras and video recorders. They have created “Facetime,” which allows people to communicate across oceans and long distances easily. The truth is, Apple did so much in so little time, so how could we not see the downfall coming? Despite speculations

that many of Apple’s products were inspired by stealing ideas from other developmental companies such as Samsung and Windows, Apple has always been one for creating simplified products. When Steve Jobs founded Apple, one of the company’s goals was to create a product that avoided the flashiness of advertising, but took advantage of simplicity in color, design and boxing. The result was – for a long time – products that were only black or white. The design was always simple, light and smooth. The boxing has always been efficiently compacted and contained little excess boxing material or papers. Evidence of Apple’s downfall lies in its production of a phone that has added nothing. Software has been changed to update the design of the iPhone’s infrastructure, but nothing has really been added to draw in more consumers. If anything, Apple has caked on colors to the iPhone to distract from the fact that they really haven’t made any changes between the last iPhone and these new ones. High pricing has always been a sign of quality in products, which often serves to draw people in to purchasing the product. It seems if a product is more expensive, consumers should be drawn away from that particular item, but often it is the opposite, especially in cases in which there are high levels of branding involved with the product. Apple has done a fantastic job branding their products up to this point, but the new release of the iPhone 5S and 5C, the new iOS software and the new iPad are all failing to add anything different to the table. With as innovative as Apple has been for the last decade, it is hard to say that it is a surprise to see their recent stock fall and consumption numbers. After all, what comes up, must come down. daperspectives@mail.wvu.edu

HOROSCOPE BY JACQUELINE BIGAR BORN TODAY This year you will be more optimistic and expressive than you have been for quite a while. If you are single, you might feel bowled over by your popularity. Before you know it, you could be acting like a kid in a candy store. Date as much as you want. You will know when you connect with someone significant. If you are attached, the two of you could have your share of misunderstandings, but you’ll learn to see them as quick passages. You will relate on an intense level. AQUARIUS is a loyal friend. ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) HHHH You could be dealing with someone who thinks he or she is in charge. You might prefer to not take this person on. Anger builds and

comes out in a meeting. Choose your words with care; you won’t be able to take them back later. Tonight: Let the fun begin. TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) HHH Keep reaching out to someone at a distance. This person might be resistant at first, but you will be able to help him or her see your logic. A discussion about your feelings with a child or loved one needs to happen soon, because the other party is on edge. Tonight: Chat over dinner. GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) HHHH You have an opportunity to reach out to someone you really care about. It is time for a one-on-one conversation. Make a point of having this chat as soon as possible; otherwise, you might be unduly concerned or uptight. Tonight: Have a discussion over dinner.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) HH You have a great sense of when is and when is not a good time to bend for someone else. A friend or loved one could have pushed you very hard. You might decide to go along with this person one more time only to be sorry that you did later. Tonight: Curb your anger. LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) HHH Get as much done as possible. You’ll want to free up time earlier than on most Fridays. You will enter a very social period this weekend. You might network some, but you also will become a party animal soon enough. Tonight: Sort through your many invitations and requests. VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) HHH Focus on the lighter side of what is happening. Detach, and you won’t get triggered. Tempers will flare other-

wise, and you easily could lose your temper. Be aware that tension might build all day long. Tonight: Make plans that will allow you to work through some of the stress. LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) HHHH You might have difficulty getting going. So much so, you might decide to cancel plans and assume the role of couch potato. Everyone needs to take some much-needed down time sooner or later. That time is now for you. Tonight: You might get a lastminute urge to go out. SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) HHH You are all smiles and seeing life from a Friday point of view. How you deal with a very assertive friend might surprise him or her. You rarely lose your temper when dealing with this person, so he or she will need to be ready to accept this side of you. Tonight:

Mosey on home. SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22- DEC. 21) HHHH Deal with a money matter as quickly as possible. You could be pondering an important decision. If you can take the weekend to mull over this issue, do. Try not to get into a tiff with a difficult associate. Return calls later in the afternoon. Tonight: Go with the most fun option. CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) HHH You might have been toying with the idea that you would like to do something silly. Your sense of humor and the time you spend to involve someone else demonstrates your caring far more than you realize. Tonight: Be clear about your plans in order to avoid a misunderstanding. AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) HH You might want to be a couch po-

tato just for a day. Everyone, including you, needs time off to do what he or she wants – even if that is doing nothing. You put yourself out for others so often that you do not make enough time for you. Tonight: Catch a second wind. PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) HHHH Use the daylight hours to the max, when success seems to travel with you. Your unusual creativity and charisma draw many people toward you. Complete as much as you can today, while the Force is with you. Tonight: Vanish. Let others wonder where you are.

Country Music Association Awards feature Underwood, Paisley as hosts BY NICK WESDOCK A&E WRITER @dailyathenaeum

Wednesday night was a night of surprises at the 47th annual Country Music Association awards. The three-hour-long show was hosted by country music superstars Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley and featured performances from artists such as Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton, Florida Georgia Line and Taylor Swift. One of country music’s biggest and most tenured stars, 61-year-old George Strait, took home the most coveted prize, Entertainer of the Year. “I just cannot believe it,” Straight said. “You guys that are nominated are such powerful entertainers. I’m just thrilled to be nominated again.” Other big winners of the night included country’s “royal” couple, as de-

scribed by Paisley. Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert won male and female Vocalist of the Year, respectively. This marks the fourth year in a row Shelton and Lambert have won the prestigious awards. Shelton also won album of the year for “Based on a True Story.” “I had mentioned earlier today that if there was an award that would mean the most to me tonight, it would be Album of the Year,” Shelton said in his thank you speech. New country music artist Florida Georgia Line was shown their approval with four nominations on the night. They took home two awards: Vocal Duo of the Year and Single of the Year for their popular song “Cruise.” The pair helped kick off the show as they rocked out with Bryan to his hit song “That’s My Kinda Night,” and they later played a very energetic ver-

sion of “Round Here.” “Highway Don’t Care,” the hit single by Tim McGraw featuring Taylor Swift and Keith Urban, also received praise, winning Musical Event of the Year and Music Video of the Year. Swift, who was nominated for female Vocalist of the Year, performed an acoustic version of her single “Red” (from her album of the same name) alongside Alison Krauss. “Red” was also nominated for Album of the Year. A number of tribute performances made this year’s show special. Strait collaborated with Alan Jackson onstage to pay tribute to the late George Jones with a rendition of “He Stopped Loving Her Today.” The performance was touching, as the camera was fixed on Jones’ wife at times throughout the song. Bryan, despite being void of any awards

NPR’s ‘Mountain Stage’ returns to CAC BY TIFFANY BENSoN Correspondent @Dailyathenaeum

West Virginia Public Broadcasting’s “Mountain Stage with Larry Groce” is broadcasting Sunday at the Creative Arts Center and is featuring a variety of talented acts. Rhode Island natives Deer Tick have become a household name in the alternative country world. Since originating in 2004 as a John McCauley solo project, the following members have joined the group: Christopher Dale Ryan, Dennis Ryan, Ian O’Neil and Rob Crowell. They play a wide variety of music, including country, soul, blues, oldtime gospel and even punk. Lead man McCauley started recording his own songs at a young age and was touring the country by the time he was 19. With the release of his 2007 debut “War Elephant,” Deer Tick began earning comparisons to Bright Eyes and Modest Mouse. The band’s 2011 album

“Divine Providence” was edgier than earlier albums ,and earned them comparisons to the Rolling Stones. “Negativity,” Deer Tick’s newest album, is being labeled as the band’s most mature album yet. Ed Kowalczyk is also performing Sunday during the radio broadcast. Kowalczyk was the founding member and lead singer of the band Live, and he has sold more than 20 million albums worldwide. He has produced eight full-length albums that have reached gold and platinum status. Kowalczyk has had nine chart-topping hits, including “Grace” from his debut album, “Lightning Crashes,” “I Alone,” “Selling The Drama,” “The Dolphin’s Cry” and “Heaven.” Kowalczyk started his solo career in 2009. Within his first year as a solo artist, he had a sold-out tour across the U.S., Europe and South Africa. His most recent release, “The Flood and the Mercy,” features Peter Buck, lead guitarist and co-founder of the

band R.E.M. Wisconsin-based band Luray, featuring singer Shannon Carey, her brothers Sean Carey and Colin Carey and her husband Gabriel Wisniewski, will also be at “Mountain Stage.” Luray started out as a bluegrass group, but their music has been influenced by a variety of instruments like pedal steel, electric guitar and drums. The Defibulators round out the bill for Sunday’s performance. They are a group out of New York that was started by Texas native Bug Jennings. The group started out touring in an ambulance purchased online and toured for four years using it. Venues and performances have ranged from a Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade float to the inside of a prison. The group’s current release is titled “Debt’ll Get’em.” The show starts at 7 p.m. Sunday, and tickets are still available through the CAC Box Office and Ticketmaster. daa&e@mail.wvu.edu

Hosts Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood make fun of Robin Thicke and Miley Cryus’s VMA performance. this year, won in spirit, as he dedicated his performance of “Drink A Beer” to his older siblings Kelly and Chris, both of whom he lost. Perhaps the biggest surprise of the night came

when Diddy emerged on the stage with Kelly Pickler to announce the winners of the Vocal Group of the Year award, which went to Little Big Town. “Are y’all surprised to see me here?” Diddy asked

Kanye West pleads not guilty in battery case LOS ANGELES (AP) — Kanye West has pleaded not guilty to misdemeanor battery and attempted grand theft in a case filed over a scuffle with a celebrity photographer earlier this year. Attorney Blair Berk entered the plea on the rapper’s behalf Thursday in a

Los Angeles court. West was charged with two misdemeanors in September over a July altercation with paparazzo Daniel Ramos at Los Angeles International Airport. Prosecutors declined to file felony charges against West, but decided to pur-

sue the misdemeanors. Each carries a penalty of up to six months in jail or a $1,000 fine. Ramos claims West punched him in an unprovoked attack and wrestled his camera to the ground on July 19. West’s case is due back in court on Jan. 23.

Chris Brown countersues man over studio fight LOS ANGELES (AP) — Chris Brown has countersued a man who accused the R&B star’s entourage of attacking him outside a recording studio earlier this year. The singer filed an assault and battery lawsuit Wednesday against Sha’keir Duarte, who claimed in an earlier suit that he was injured when a fight erupted

between Brown and Frank Ocean’s entourages in January outside a West Hollywood studio. Duarte sued Brown in August and accused the singer of being the aggressor in the fight. Brown’s countersuit however accuses Duarte of instigating the fight by pushing, kicking and punching the R&B singer and threatening to

kill him. Brown, 24, is seeking unspecified damages. Duarte’s attorney Joseph Porter III did not immediately return a phone message seeking comment. No criminal charges were filed over the fight, but Brown may face criminal penalties after he was arrested last month in Washington, D.C. for allegedly punching a man outside a hotel. Brown remains on probation for his 2009 attack on then-girlfriend Rihanna and is due for a hearing in Los Angeles on Nov. 20, during which the new case may be addressed. Brown spent a day and a half in custody and faces a misdemeanor battery charge over the incident. The R&B singer entered rehab for anger management issues on Oct. 29.

Former Disney Channel stars: What are they up to now?

backgroundwallpapers.co

BY MITCHELL GLAZIER A&E WRiter @dailyathenaeum

Before former Disney darling Miley Cyrus captivated millions through the series “Hannah Montana” then twerked away her squeaky-clean image at the 2013 Video Music Awards, stars such as Hilary Duff, Ashley Tisdale and Raven Symone dominated Disney’s teen scene. Through their respective shows, movies and one-hit wonders, these stars won legions of fans. Hilary Duff captivated millions of kids born in the 90s through her lead role on Disney Channel’s “Lizzie McGuire.” Lizzie, who

dreams of popularity and aspires to date a boy who lathers, rinses and repeats twice, was the quintessential teen girl. After debuting in 2001, the show ran for 65 episodes and generated around 2.3 million weekly viewers before ending in early 2004. During the course of “Lizzie McGuire,” Hilary Duff feuded with fellow teen star Lindsay Lohan and dated teen heart-throb and “I Want Candy” crooner Aaron Carter. The release of Duff’s first solo album, “Metamorphosis,” brought fans the songs “Come Clean” and “Sweet Sixteen.” Richard Demico, a junior English student, operated a

arabiaweddings.com

Lizzie McGuire fan page in the early 2000s. “I watched every episode and liveposted about what happened,” Demico said. Since the show’s end, Hilary Duff has retained a relatively clean image. Duff married Canadian ice hockey player Mike Comrie in 2010. In March 2012, Duff gave birth to a son, Luca Cruz. The Disney starlet is active on Instagram and recently revealed she is currently working with Billy Mann, a renowned producer, on an upcoming album. Ashley Tisdale won multitudes of fans through her roles in the Disney shows “The Suite Life of Zack and Cody” and “High School

Musical.” “The Suite Life of Zack and Cody” chronicled the shenanigans of twins Zack and Cody Martin. Tisdale played candy counter girl Maddie Fitzpatrick, who is a love interest of the twins. In 2006, she was cast for the role of Sharpay Evans, a wealthy and sassy teen, in the smash-hit “High School Musical.” Since 2008’s conclusion of the movie series with “High School Musical: Senior Year,” Tisdale has appeared in “Scary Movie 5” in 2012 and hopes to produce her third studio album in 2013. “High School Musical” fan and sophomore biology student Kaitlyn Reid

emulated Tisdale’s signature blonde locks in middle school. “Looking back, I was hideous, but I loved Ashley Tisdale’s look,” Reid said. Raven Symone, of “The Cosby Show” and Disney’s “That’s So Raven” fame, was idolized by millions of fans, who relished her roles in these family-friendly comedies. Her series, one of the longest-running in Disney history, ran for 100 episodes from 2003 to 2007. “That’s So Raven” chronicled teen psychic Raven Baxter, who tirelessly attempted to save her friends, and herself, from misfortune. After several radio hits, such as “Backflip” and “Superstition,” and a lead role

in “The Cheetah Girls,” Symone retired her Disney image. In May 2012, Raven Symone came out publicly as a lesbian. In recent months, Symone has taken to Twitter to support gay marriage, stating, “I was excited to hear today that more states legalized gay marriage. I, however, am not currently getting married, but it is great to know I can now, should I wish to.” As hard as it may be for former Disney stars to keep a relatively clean image, these former scene queens have led quiet, law-abiding lives since departing from the network. daa&e@mail.wvu.edu

‘Three Guys In Drag Selling Their Stuff’ comes to M.T. Pockets BY NICOLE CURTIN A&E WRITER @Dailyathenaeum

“Three Guys In Drag Selling Their Stuff ” will open tonight at M.T. Pockets Theatre Company. The show starts at 8 p.m. and will star Anthony Host, Robert Wolfe and Ron Adamson. The play is a story of three friends who work in drag and are having a yard

sale to support one of their husband’s funerals. Diva, Lillian and Tink are selling their stuff to help fund the cremation of Diva’s husband. Tink is the oldest of the group and is becoming ill, confined to her wheelchair. Vicki Trickett, the director of the play, said the piece gives a nod at remembering who means the most to you. “The friendship of the

three ladies – it seems like they are bickering all the time, which happens in real life, but when it comes down to it, the friendship is there,” Trickett said. “Everybody has those rough moments, but when it comes down to the important things, they’re there.” Wolfe, who plays Tink, said he hopes audience members enjoy the show. “I hope they laugh, be-

World Music Concert features music from a variety of countries BY NOELLE HARRIS A&E WRITER @dailyathenaeum

The music of Japan, Trinidad and Tobego, Ghana and Guinea is all very different, but today it all has one thing in common: it will all be performed by members of the West Virginia University World Music Performance Center. Under the direction of Michael Vercelli, the World Music Showcase Concert is a production of the WVU World Music Performance Center. The concert will feature traditional and modern arrangements from the different countries, some of which will be familiar, such as a classic Beatles arrangement from one of the Steel Bands. This type of music makes different cultures more accessible to people who may not be knowledgeable about a certain culture’s music. “From a cultural standpoint, it’s important to experience the wide variety of cultural activities available on campus,” Vercelli said. WVU offers many different opportunities to learn

about different cultures. The WVU World Music Performance Center puts on a concert every semester, and the groups that perform are different each year. The Steel Bands and African Music and Dance Ensemble regularly perform, but the rest of the ensemble varies each year. This year WVU is featuring a Taiko Drum Ensemble, which performs Japanese music. This concert will feature WVU’s “Big Red Drum” during the Taiko performance. The cultural education presented by the World Music Performance Center is not just important for the audience of the concert. It is also extremely important for the members of the ensembles. “Learning to perform music from other cultures gives students the opportunity to experience different cultures,” Vercelli said. Members of the World Music program work with many master musicians from around the world who have been brought to campus or by going on trips to their home countries. The program takes study abroad trips during the summer every two

years. These trips help them learn to appreciate and perform the music of those countries better. There is much more than just reading music for the students, too. Members of the WVU African Music and Dance Ensemble learn to perform the music of their cultures through dance and feeling. They may be on stage performing, but they are known for including the audience in their performance so the audience also learns the music and style. Vercelli, the director of the World Music Showcase, holds a doctorate of musical arts in ethnomusicology from the University of Arizona. He has studied the traditional music of other countries and done fieldwork in Bali, Cuba, Brazil and primarily in Ghana. The concert begins at 7:30 tonight in the Lyell B. Clay Theatre of the Creative Arts Center. For tickets and information, contact the Mountainlair and CAC Box Office at (304) 293-SHOW. daa&e@mail.wvu.edu

cause it is a funny show,” Wolfe said. “Ron, Anthony and I have pretty good chemistry. We work well together.” When it comes to the role of Tink, Wolfe said he has played several other parts in shows at M.T. Pockets. “It’s one of my many roles here at M.T. Pockets, and it’s a fun character,” Wolfe said. “This is right in line with the rest,

as I’ve done a transvestite, a voodoo witch – I think there’s only two shows where I have been a male role.” Trickett said choosing the play was easy because of the humorous story line and how it relates to Morgantown. “It was funny, and, being in theater, we are more aware of the cultural differences in Morgantown,” she said. “Vice has great

‘Hollow’ provides insight into rural W.Va. by carly smith a&e writer @dailyathenaeum

Elaine McMillion, filmmaker and West Virginia University School of Journalism alumna, screened her award-winning documentary “Hollow: An Interactive Documentary” Thursday evening to students, faculty and supporters. The screening was a segment of Mountaineer Week, which is a celebration of the culture and heritage of West Virginia. McMillion teamed up with two former classmates and SOJ alumnae Tricia Fulks and Megan Bowers to create a unique profile of McDowell County, W.Va. Once a booming coal community, McDowell County is now facing a loss of population and economic opportunity. McMillion and her crew wanted to use the documentary to capture the small-town feel of McDowell County and bring its population to life

through an interactive, online documentary that features videos, photos and gamification. “It’s so hard to call ‘Hollow’ a documentary because it’s so much more than a film,” McMillion said. “We wanted to hear from the people who hadn’t given up on a place that seems “hopeless.” The documentary brings to light many issues McDowell County faces, such as deteriorating economy, dying population and problems with prescription drug abuse. The documentary includes interactive data charts and tables to explain how this community has personally been affected by these troubles. On the “Hollow” website, users can scroll through the information and see data, view 30 video profiles of residents, see photos of McDowell County and interact with the documentary at their own pace. By viewing video profiles, the user can unlock

photo albums or other exclusive content from “Hollow,” making the experience similar to an online game. “We wanted to take the time to create an interactive experience,” McMillion said. “This documentary was built for an intimate experience you can have oneon-one with the images and content.” McMillion said she wanted to make sure social media was prevalent in the documentary, as well, and integrated Instagram and Twitter into the experience. A user can tag a post or photo with the “Hollow” hashtag #hollerhome, and it will be updated live on the documentary website for other users to see. Users can also input personal information to connect with others using the site and use the adjoining blog to connect with the residents of McDowell County. So far, “Hollow” has had great success with more than 67,000 viewers in 150 countries. “Hollow” has been screened at numer-

The stories included in “Hollow” and the incredible detail that went into the execution of the documentary stunned the audience at the screening, as well.

“As a person who goes to school in West Virginia but has never explored the state, I was surprised as to how much this film affected me,” said Lauren Nickle, a senior advertising student. McMillion said she plans to continue screening “Hollow,” spreading awareness of her interactive documentary. McMillion said she would like to influence change in McDowell County’s economic situation, but she believes it needs to be-

gin closer to home. “I would like to see more things come out of this community,”McMillion said. “Not necessarily from outsiders coming in and trying to help, but the community itself helping each other.” More information can be found at www.hollowdocumentary.com or by joining the conversation, using #hollerhome.

It’s not often that an accountant pulls double duty as a top-class performer, but that is precisely the case for West Virginia University graduate student Skip Smith. In addition to looking forward to a job in New York City for professional services group PricewaterhouseCoopers, Smith is making his final year at the University special by showcasing a different side of himself – Smith, the performer. “This is a really good opportunity for people who are not necessarily performance majors or theater kids,” Smith said. “One of the best things about this performance and making it through round to round is being able to show a different side of yourself each week.” For Smith, the transition to Mountaineer Idol was not entirely random. After singing in his church’s choir throughout his youth but never fully dedicating himself to the performing arts, Smith tried out for his high school’s show choir as a freshman. “I remember seeing a show choir performance, and I just thought it was the coolest thing ever,” Smith said. “I was like, ‘Oh, that’s what I want to do!’” His talent was evident, and the director was

blindsided by his stellar audition. “The director just lost it,” Smith said. “She was flipping out because I just kind of showed up out of nowhere.” This initial taste of the performing life led to a summer job at King’s Island in Cincinnati, where he provided entertainment to the amusement park’s guests. Despite initial reservations about his ability to deliver on a larger scale, Smith was presented a simple choice by his father, and the answer was made clear. “My dad said to me, ‘Well, you can go make money this way (performing), or you can go get a summer job at the mall,’” Smith said. “So, that pretty much sealed it for me.” Now a finalist in WVU’s Mountaineer Idol competition, Smith casts aside any preconceived doubts and insecurities and embraces his role as a purveyor of entertainment. “You can listen to a CD if you just want to hear a song,” Smith said. “But when you’re on stage, you want the audience to be engaged to some degree. I’ve tried really hard throughout the competition to entertain people as much as possible.” To achieve this, Smith said he focuses on his dance moves in addition to his vocal performance, and the results have earned him some enthusiastic and enamored fans.

“Somebody wrote a comment and said, ‘You’re hot, love your flannel shirt, stay hot,’” Smith said. “A couple of us also got the comment, ‘You’re awesome. Why aren’t you in New York yet?’ That was really cool.” To conclude his journey on the Mountaineer Idol stage, Smith said he will bring a multi-faceted set list to fully showcase his range of talents. In performing an upbeat song, an intimate song and an original number, Smith feels he will win the audience’s and judges’ approval. “It has to be entertaining for the audience, so if I’ve got three different opportunities to do something for them, I’m going to try to make it as different as possible,” Smith said. “I feel like it’s really more dynamic that way.” Beyond the competition, Smith hopes to keep music a part of his life in the Big Apple. Understanding that the city presents plenty of opportunities for aspiring artists, he will remain open to any offer thrown his way. “I’ve made it this far not necessarily seeking stuff out,” Smith said. “I’m kind of hoping that life keeps going in that direction where, even though I’m not necessarily looking for it, really cool opportunities keep coming around, and they keep getting better and better.” daa&e@mail.wvu.edu

Wide Receiver Jordan Thompson celebrates West Virginia’s win against Texas in 2012.

WVU looks for its second straight win over a team from the Lone Star State Saturday against Texas by kevin hooker sports writer @dailyathenaeum

The West Virginia University football team will play their first night game of 2013 Saturday, facing Texas at 7 p.m. at Milan Puskar Stadium. Despite a shaky start, the Longhorns are 6-2 on the season and undefeated in Big 12 Conference play. Last season, then-No. 8 West Virginia defeated thenNo. 11 Texas by a score of 4845 in their second meeting ever. “Texas will be (a) challenge

to not only our players but our coaches,” said WVU head coach Dana Holgorsen. “They are playing together with a lot of confidence and have won some big games.” West Virginia won its first game in three weeks Nov. 2, defeating TCU in overtime 30-27. The win improved the Mountaineers’ record to 2-4 in Big 12 play and 4-5 on the season. Running back Charles Sims looks to rack up more than 1,000 total yards this season. Last week, he ran for a season-high 24 carries for 154 yards against TCU.

The Longhorns’ rushing defense has improved since giving up 550 yards against BYU, but Texas hasn’t faced a strong rushing attack in conference play. The Mountaineer offense will presumably be run by quarterback Clint Trickett, who threw for 267 yards and two touchdowns in last week’s victory. West Virginia averages 250 passing yards per game, which is good for No. 4 in the conference. “Things are starting to come together (in the offense),” Holgorsen said. “You

can easily go back just as much as you went forward, so we need to get back to practice, building unity, continuity, trust and trying to show improvement. That is what is important to me, and I think we accomplished that last week.” With Texas quarterback Case McCoy calling the snaps, Texas will focus on running the ball Saturday night. However, West Virginia’s run defense is much stronger than its passing defense, which ranks No. 111 nationally and has allowed opponents to average just more than 275

passing yards per game. “(Texas) is probably the most physical team we have played up until this point (of the season),” Holgorsen said. “They do not have one guy to cover. You have to cover them all. They have lots of depth and skill.” Texas has won its last five games and is coming off a 3513 blowout victory against Kansas. Running back Malcolm Brown rushed for 119 yards on 20 carries and four touchdowns. “Texas is good up front,” Holgorsen said. “They have three running backs that

are all capable of being the starter.” The Longhorns have a balanced offense, ranking No. 3 in rushing offense and No. 5 in passing offense in the Big 12. Despite an early season controversy, quarterback Case McCoy has five touchdowns and 1,188 passing yards on the season. If the Mountaineers can use their home field to their advantage and hit Texas in its chattering teeth, West Virginia has a chance to pull off the upset. dasports@mail.wvu.edus

WVU takes on Mount St. Mary’s by greg madia multimedia editor @dailyathenaeum

Coming off a rough season a in 2012-13, the West Virginia men’s basketball team opens its season tonight at 8 p.m. against Mount St. Mary’s inside the WVU Coliseum. For WVU head coach Bob Huggins, the Mountaineers will feature a roster with many changes from a year ago. In fact, WVU only returns five lettermen and only have a total of nine eligible scholarship players. WVU will likely start junior Juwan Staten and sopho-

more Eron Harris in the backcourt, while junior Kevin Noreen will get the call alongside freshmen Nathan Adrian and Devin Williams in the front court. Staten and his teammates are excited to get the season started. “We’re excited to get the season tipped off and going in the right direction,” Staten said. “This one really counts so we’re looking forward to it.” The inexperienced West Virginia team will be tested by a veteran Mount St. Mary’s squad. Head coach Jamion Christian will play four se-

niors with his starting lineup, including guard Rashad Whack, who led the team in scoring a year ago. “They’re experienced; they went to the finals of their conference tournament a year ago,” Huggins said. “They’re going to press, it’ll be a diamond press. A little man-toman or maybe a little 2-2-1, and probably throw in some other kind of zone.” Tonight’s men’s game will be the back end of a doubleheader, with the women’s team taking on Ohio State at 5:30 p.m. dasports@mail.wvu.edu

The second edition of ‘Stripe the Stadium”’will take place Saturday night against the Texas Longhorns.

Mack Brown, Texas to face a different West Virginia team from last season Saturday night by amit batra sports editor @batra01

In recent weeks, there has been a lot of excitement in Austin, Texas. The Texas Longhorns are riding a five-game win streak following a 1-2 start, and they are undefeated in Big 12 Conference play. While Texas is 6-2 and perfect in league play, there is added excitement with the addition of its new Athletic Director, Steve Patterson.w Texas’ head coach Mack Brown is not too concerned with any of that right now, though. His main concern right now is a West Virginia team

looking to get its fifth win at Milan Puskar Stadium Saturday night – a team fighting for bowl eligibility after a much-needed overtime win over the TCU Horned Frogs. Brown said he’s familiar with West Virginia redshirt junior quarterback Clint Trickett. In many ways, the Mountaineer leader is similar to his own quarterback. “Just watching him, you can see that (Clint Trickett) is very much like Case (McCoy),” Brown said. “He manages the game, he’s smart. He’s going to make good decisions. He’s a very good leader, and it’s a good story for him. His

dad’s from West Virginia, a player there, and he wasn’t going to get to start at Florida State, so this is where the five-year rule works. It worked for West Virginia, and it worked for him.” While Brown realizes the Mountaineers have lost many key pieces from the 2012 team that defeated Texas in Austin, he’s been impressed with some of the new talent West Virginia has on its roster this season. “Right now (Charles) Sims, the transfer from Houston, is a pro prospect, and I really think he is a really good football player. What they are do-

ing now is putting some emphasis on the running game and then giving the ball to the right people. Like Case (McCoy), their quarterback is not a guy who is going to run the option or a lot of quarterback draws. He can, but it is more the power running game and throwing the ball down the field. “We have adjusted who they are this year and they aren’t going with quite as fast a tempo as they did at Oklahoma, but they still have some really good players.” Brown has particularly been impressed with Sims and his production as of late. While Brown said

Sims didn’t have interest in Texas after he left Houston because of all the running backs on the Longhorns’ roster, the head coach respects Sims’ playmaking and style. “He was not interested in us because of all the backs we had,” Brown said. “When a fifth-year guy transfers he wants to be the guy, and I think it worked well for him. He is a lot like Malcolm Brown. They list him at 213 pounds, and I would say he is at least that. He is fast. He is a power runner, but he is also good out of the backfield so we think he is a very good pro prospect at running back.”

Brown and his Texas Longhorns will try to limit Trickett, Sims and the rest of the Mountaineers Saturday at 7 p.m. amit.batra@mail.wvu.edu

Mountaineers to deal with phyiscal Texas squad by amit batra sports editor @batra01

When the Texas Longhorns take the field at Milan Puskar Stadium Saturday night, the West Virginia football team will see a style of physicality they have not seen much of in the 2013 season. It’s just the common style of physicality college football fans have been accustomed to with the team residing in Austin, Texas. Whether it’s the offensive line or the secondary, Texas presents a challenge of smash-mouth football – a physical style of football WVU hasn’t seen too much of this season. “Texas has a big, physical and athletic defensive line, and even into the linebackers and secondary,” said WVU offensive coordinator Shannon Dawson. “Everybody understands what Texas is, and we def-

initely have our work cut out for us. We will take the same approach and go out physical.” Texas, a team that has won five straight games and has looked like a different team after losing to BYU and Ole Miss early on in the season, will present blitz packages in an attempt to rattle redshirt junior Clint Trickett and his first night game in Morgantown. “Texas is a good defense, and we have a good game plan against them,” Trickett said. “We need to keep doing what we are, because the offense is improving every week. It will be exciting to play Texas, especially at night, but you can’t put too much into it, because you still have to play the game. “As a whole, as a defense, Texas matches up pretty well. Their cover guys and up-front guys are good. They are all talented and highly recruited guys. It will be just another formidable Big 12 defense.”

Redshirt senior defensive lineman Shaq Rowell also sees a challenge that Texas presents up front. “They are a wellcoached, dominant offensive line,” he said. “I think this might be the best line we’ve faced. Kansas State had all five guys back, and Texas has four seniors with the two guards, the center and the tackle. Ever since these guys played BYU and Ole Miss, they look like a completely different team. You can tell Coach Mack Brown lit a fire under those guys. Those guys are physical up front, and it’s going to be a challenge for us.” The Longhorns have been balanced on the ground. Sophomore Johnathan Gray, junior Malcolm Brown and junior Joe Bergeron have become a difficult trio for opponents to stop. UT comes into the game No. 29 in the nation in rushing yards (203.0).

Gray has 724 yards on the season, while Brown has seven rushing touchdowns in 2013. Against Kansas, the Longhorns had 221 yards rushing. WVU will need to match Texas’ physicality in Saturday’s matchup. amit.batra@mail.wvu.edu

West Virginia wide receiver Mario Alford catches a ball against the TCU Horned Frogs Saturday.

Brown to experience new venue Saturday night by greg madia multimedia editor @dailyathenaeum

Texas head coach Mack Brown has coached in many venues, and week to week he revisits those venues either every year or every other year, but this week Brown has prepared himself and his team to play in a venue he is unfamiliar with. Texas makes its first trip to Morgantown Saturday night, and Brown will coach for the first time at Mountaineer Field at Mi-

lan Puskar Stadium. “I’ve never been to Morgantown, West Virginia,” Brown said. “We’ve heard so much about the atmosphere there and how great the fans are and how much they love football and love their team, so it’ll be a fun challenge for us, but the guys are sure looking forward to it.” Brown and Texas are dealing with not only a rowdy fan base Saturday, but also a few logistical changes. The Longhorns will play their first game

in the Eastern Time Zone since defeating Central Florida in Orlando Sept. 15, 2007. Texas will deal with the cold after playing in warm weather throughout the first eight games of its schedule. Brown, who normally has his team do a walkthrough Friday, will not do so this week because of the long trip. “We will not because we will be an hour from Pittsburgh and then another 45 minutes to the stadium, and then you have to go back, and

you’d be traveling more than you would be working out,” Brown said. “So we’ll just go on gameday and have fun. We’ll probably go a little earlier and get there maybe 30 minutes before we normally would, just in case traffic is an issue and (to) make sure they have a chance to walk around and get a feel of the stadium.” Despite Brown being unfamiliar with what’s ahead of him Saturday, there is one man on his staff who completely knows what the Longhorns are getting in. New Texas defensive coordinator Greg Robinson is a former Syracuse head coach who has made a few trips to Morgantown in the past. “Greg Robinson will be a really good resource for us this week, because he coached at Syracuse and they were in the Big East with West Virginia, so he’s been there a lot and we’ll lean on him heavily,” Brown said.

For both Brown and Robinson, they have more than the venue to worry about. There is a game Saturday, and for a Longhorns’ defense that has vastly improved over the past four weeks, they won’t take West Virginia’s young but inexperienced offense lightly. “They won a tough game on the road at TCU Saturday night in overtime 30-27,” Brown said. “(Clint) Trickett is playing good at quarterback. He’s a coach’s son, he manages the game and they’re running the ball. (Charles) Sims is a really good football player.” Sims, the leading rusher and second leading receiver, really concerns Brown because of the way Dana Holgorsen uses him and the entire West Virginia running game. Brown admits Sims will be a factor, even though the Longhorns’ run defense hasn’t yielded more than 150 yards rushing during the

team’s five-game win streak. “We know a lot about (Sims) because he was at Houston, and we’ve watched him throughout the last couple of years. He’s a top pro prospect and a really good football player, and that’s where it all starts for him,” Brown said. “Their running game is different than last year. It was all the passing game last year and then Tavon Austin in space, and this year they’re going to line up and hammer the ball, and they’ve got two or three prospects on their offensive line. It’s an older offensive line with juniors and seniors, and this will be a really good test for our defense, our front seven, to stop Sims.” dasports@mail.wvu.edu

Sims ready for chance to shine against Texas

Three keys to victory for WVU Saturday Coming off its first road victory in 2013 at TCU Saturday, West Virginia’s bowl chances have drastically improved with three games left in the season. The Mountaineers’ quest for a postseason berth continues Saturday when the Texas Longhorns come to Morgantown. Led by head coach Mack Brown, the Longhorns have been playing their best football recently. After stumbling out of the gate to a 1-2 start, the Longhorns have won five games in a row and are undefeated in Big 12 play. Coupled with a win against Oklahoma State Sept. 28, this game could provide West Virginia with its second statement win of the season. Here are the three keys to the game from West Virginia’s perspective: 1. Establish the run Led by running back Charles Sims, West Virginia rushed for 148 yards in its 3027 overtime win over TCU Saturday. Though it hasn’t historically been the style of head coach Dana Holgorsen or offensive coordinator Shannon Dawson, this West Virginia offense is at its best when it is running the ball with consistency. Sims comes into this game as No. 3 in the Big 12 in rushing yards with 754. As the most dynamic player on West Virginia’s offense, Sims is a matchup nightmare for opposing defenses. Saturday’s game against TCU provided a glimpse of his capabilities in getting consistent touches, as Sims carried the ball 24 times against the Horned Frogs. Texas is No. 8 in defending the run in the Big 12, giving up an average of 194.6 yards per game. If Sims gets a similar amount of touches Saturday as he did against TCU, West Virginia will be able to exploit this weakness in the Longhorn defense. 2. Pressure Case McCoy Since taking over for David Ash, quarterback Case McCoy had tremendous success leading the Longhorn offense. However, the senior signal caller is prone to making mistakes, especially when he is under pressure. McCoy has thrown five touchdowns this season, but has also thrown five interceptions. West Virginia’s secondary has struggled to defend the pass this season. If McCoy has time to throw Saturday, he could pick apart the Mountaineer defense. Defensive coordinator Keith Patterson will have to come up with a scheme to put consistent pressure in McCoy’s face. 3. Win the turnover battle This one is fairly obvious. In most cases, the team that wins the turnover battle normally wins the game. Texas is No. 2 in the Big 12 with a +6 turnover margin while the Mountaineers are No. 6 in the conference at +2. West Virginia quarterback Clint Trickett has an identical touchdown to interception ratio as McCoy with five touchdowns to five interceptions. For West Virginia to win the turnover battle, it has to put Trickett in manageable downand-distance situations. If West Virginia is consistently in third-and-long situations, Trickett could be forced into mistakes. Staying ahead of the chains will be paramount to West Virginia’s success or failure in the turnover battle. connor.murray@mail.wvu.edu

Redshirt senior running back Charles Sims, WVU’s most effective offensive player this season, only has a few games left in his collegiate career. Sims is fresh off a season-high rushing performance after running past TCU for 154 yards and a score Saturday. According to WVU coaches, he will continue to be used heavily down the stretch as the Mountaineers pursue bowl eligibility during their final three regular season games. “The more touches he has, the more big plays he’s going to make,” said JaJuan Seider West Virginia’s running backs coach. “I made a big effort of putting him in the backfield and letting him run the ball (Saturday). We’d be crazy not to take advantage of him – he’s got three more games. I mean, you don’t get these types of players too often. You’ve got to maximize them while you’ve got them and he’s saved us –

him and the O-Line. “It was a surprise that TCU played off us as much with the safeties. It was like, ‘(The) hell with this, we’re going to run power’ and you know, shoot, he took over the game. We put it on his back, and we rolled him. And we’re going to ride him for three more games while we’ve got him.” Sims, who transferred to WVU this year from the University of Houston, has rushed for 3,124 yards and 34 touchdowns during his career, including 754 yards and five rushing scores for the Mountaineers in 2013. Sims has also been a security blanket in the passing game for fellow transfer and starting quarterback Clint Trickett, catching 36 passes for 300 yards and two more touchdowns through nine games in 2013. Trickett said Sims’ impact on the offense has been pretty self-explanatory if you’ve been watching the Mountaineers play at all this season. “He is one of the best backs in the country, and

he’ll be making some money next year,” Trickett said. “That’s easy to see. But (it’s) the little things that he does that you don’t see, as far as pass protection and telling guys where to go. It’s only his first year in the system, and he’s telling guys where to go. He’s just an all-around, very good football player. He’s catching people’s eyes, and he deserves it.” Aside from the production on the field, Sims has also provided the Mountaineers with some of the leadership they’ve lacked on the offensive side of the ball. Sims, who is a quiet guy, will be the first to admit while he’s not necessarily the typical vocal leader, he certainly can and will lead by example on a daily basis. WVU offensive coordinator Shannon Dawson said this trait may indeed be Sims’ most valuable contribution to 2013’s fairly young and inexperienced Mountaineer offense. “We needed a guy like

him this year with the group that we have,” Dawson said. “He’s been extremely steady week in and week out. To show young kids how to work and go about your business has probably been more beneficial than anything he’s done on the field. Because the way he goes about his everyday life, every day out in practice, is the way everybody should do it. “It’s amazing how that kid just keeps his mouth shut, does what he’s told and does it with everything he’s got.” Sims, a Houston native, said because he’s from Texas, Saturday’s primetime matchup against the Longhorns definitely carries much more significance with it. “Oh, I’ve always wanted to play Texas, man,” Sims said. “Growing up as a kid, that’s all you heard about was Texas, so I’ve always wanted to play those guys. It’s going to be a great atmosphere, (a) night game. It’s my first night game.” The Mountaineers had immense success in the

2012 season on the ground against Texas in Austin as ex-Mountaineer Andrew Buie finished with a whopping 31 carries for 207 yards and two touchdowns. But the Longhorns have since made some major adjustments to their defense, including bringing in new defensive coordinator Greg Robinson. After allowing nearly 450 yards of offense per game to its first two opponents, Texas has since held opposing teams to about 100 yards or fewer following the coordinator swap. Sims said after watching that game, the key for the Mountaineers this year is to establish the offensive line up front again, and most importantly, just be ready for a physical battle come Saturday. “We want to be physical,” Sims said. “That’s the game of football – you want to be more physical than the other team. (They’ve) got a great team coming into Morgantown. (It) should be a good game.” dasports@mail.wvu.edu

Unranked Texas, McCoy ready for challenge by amit batra sports editor @batra01

Senior Texas Longhorns quarterback Case McCoy is satisfied with how his team has played in recent weeks. With Texas going into Saturday’s game against West Virginia 6-2 overall and 5-0 in the Big 12 Conference, it’s a bit of a head-scratcher UT isn’t ranked after its play of late. “I personally don’t care (on being unranked),” McCoy said. “I think a lot of these guys would like that on the team, and I think a lot of them deserve it. That is a goal for us. We would like to be ranked, but obviously there’s a lot out there that we need to prove. The goal here is to win the Big 12 and win out and go to a BCS bowl, and if we do that, everything else will take care of itself.” The senior leader said he understands the Longhorns have put themselves in position to win the conference and get back to the norm of success in Austin. The quarterback, however, said he is only focused on West Virginia and the

tough playing environment in Morgantown. “It’s a hard place to play, and they play well there,” McCoy said of West Virginia’s home success in 2013. “It’ll be a colder game. It’ll be a challenge for us to go down there and get a big win there. They’ve shown they can play there. “They upset Oklahoma State early. It’s our job to prepare and be ready for a shootout up there, so that’s what we’re looking for.” McCoy said he studied the challenges the Mountaineer defense can bring Saturday night. “They’re a defense that has played in big games already,” he said. “They played some high power offenses and have held them to a reasonable amount of points. They don’t want to let the big plays happen. They’re very secure in that area. I look at a team that came to this conference to beat the University of Texas. That’s what they want. That’s

the game that’s circled on their schedule every year because you heard them say it (in 2012). “I know that it’s a challenge, but that some people would call it a trap game, that’s the craziest thing I’ve ever heard because we’re looking at this team as being as good as the remaining three on the schedule. It’s a game for us that I think is a huge challenge that is presented to us, and you know I love challenges. I love being in situations like that.” McCoy has certainly managed his leadership role in the 2013 season. While a balanced running attack has helped him along the way, the brother of former Longhorn Colt McCoy hasn’t been perfect in the last few games. Against Kansas Saturday, McCoy didn’t throw a touchdown pass and had two interceptions. “I understand that we’ve got to beat West Virginia, and after we beat West Virginia I understand we have to beat the next team,

Oklahoma State. I understand it’s game after game, and I can’t start trying to beat Baylor right now. So my job as the leader and the quarterback of this offense is to keep us prepared, to keep our mind right, to make sure we understand the challenge that’s on our plate and we have to go perform.” amit.batra@mail.wvu.edu
