IFC hopeful chapters will gain full reinstatement in coming weeks ALYSSA JACOBS Lantern reporter jacobs.971@osu.edu

High prices, limited options: students searching for textbook alternatives MICHAEL LEE Lantern reporter lee.7240@osu.edu With the closing of Student Book Exchange in December, students were left looking for alternatives to purchase textbooks other than those at Barnes and Noble.

Why the need for alternatives?

Without other options around campus, students are forced to go Ohio State’s official bookstore — arguably the only one within walking distance of campus. Barnes and Noble is the only bookstore remaining in the campus area, where students expect higher prices relative to online competitors like Amazon.

At Ohio State’s Barnes and Noble book store, for example, a copy of “Introduction to Graphics and Communications for Engineers” costs $87.25. On Amazon, the same copy costs $71.47.

In addition to its closing, on SBX’s website, a link for professors to buy textbooks for their classes redirects them to Barnes and Nobles’ official site.

Cary Amling, a fourth-year in mechanical engineering, said while she usually finds free or low-priced textbooks from friends in the same major, Amazon offers an alternative to Barnes and Noble.

Amling said she only buys textbooks if the class requires it for open-note tests.

“It is in everyone’s best interest that the entire community move forward in a positive way.”

Dave Isaacs Spokesman for the Office of Student Life

“I buy the international [textbook] versions.

It’s the same content and usually way cheaper.”

Cary Amling Fourth-year in mechanical engineering

“I buy the international versions. It’s the same content and usually way cheaper [than Barnes and Noble],” she said.

For Sarah Avdakov, a second-year in Spanish, using Facebook groups as an alternative for finding textbooks has had added benefits.

“As someone who buys and sells through the Facebook groups ... it’s sort of like ‘I’ve already used this, I don’t need it anymore,’” Avdakov said. “You know there’s this network out there and you know there are people who have already gone through what you have gone through.”

Barnes and Noble offers to match prices with sites such as Amazon. It also offers what many websites or social media sites do not offer: being a brick-and-mor-

Interfraternity Council President Drew Cooper expressed optimism about the reinstatement status of 36 suspended IFC chapters, an indication that Ohio State’s efforts at reforming Greek life are progressing.

Cooper and Student Life leadership have held ongoing discussions with chapter presidents since Ohio State laid out its university-wide ban on IFC social activities in November, and it appears reinstatement across the board might be on the horizon.

“Overall, I am certainly hopeful that each chapter will be back to full reinstatement within the next couple of weeks,” Cooper said.

MICHAEL LEE | LANTERN REPORTER

While Barnes and Noble is the last store where students can purchase textbooks in the immediate campus area, some students find alternatives to the brick-and-mortar store. tar store.

For students like Danny Hummer, a third-year in economics, having that brick-and-mortar aspect can be useful.

“I went to Barnes and Noble to get the book in person rather than online,” Hummer said. “Some of my classes I needed the books right away, so I came to the store to get them so I didn’t have to wait.”

Aimling said Barnes and Noble sometimes offers supplemental texts with the class book, which other alternatives can’t offer.

“I feel like Barnes and Noble really likes to be like ‘yeah you

need that’ or ‘there are these notes that go with [the textbook],’” Amling said. “Also, I don’t have to go all the way to Barnes and Noble to get them.”

Avdakov said finding books on social media could possibly be even better than buying them online or in-store because of the trade-off.

“With the Facebook group, I definitely say you need to work a lot harder to find what you need sometimes,” Avdakov said.

“Normally those books are much cheaper. If you’re getting them from other students they’re willing to negotiate the prices.”

As of Monday, 31 of the 36 chapters have been approved for recruitment events and 16 for new member activities, as well, according to Ohio State’s recently created webpage aimed at improving transparency. Nine chapters have been approved for social events, which can only occur if they are approved of social and recruitment events first.

Tuesday, the day after sororities hand out their bids to new members, has previously been celebrated by IFC parties. During sorority recruitment the Panhellenic Association enacts an alcohol ban, prohibiting its members from drinking during the rush period. Only time will tell if no social approval will affect this “tradition” for many IFC chapters.

The website is part of the university’s broader attempts to change the culture within the Greek community following an unprecedented number of IFC chapter investigations Autumn Semester, which led to the blanket temporary suspension.

“We’ve been getting very strong positive feedback about the website and I think one of the things that’s true about all of this REINSTATEMENT CONTINUES ON 3

While working in Senate, professor helped aide public release of Pentagon Papers SUMMER CARTWRIGHT Campus Editor cartwright.117@osu.edu Doug Jones received the phone call from former Sen. Mike Gravel a little after 10 p.m. He was asked to come to the senator’s house — with a toothbrush. When he arrived, expecting a long night, Gravel met him at the door. He said he had the Pentagon Papers and planned to release them to the public the next day.

Gravel asked Jones if he was aboard.

Jones, now a professor emeritus of public policy and management at Ohio State, didn’t hesitate to say yes.

At that time — the summer of 1971 — the majority of the public was against the Vietnam war, Jones said recently while reflecting on that year in an interview with The Lantern. Then Gravel’s legislative assistant, Jones also “had crossed over on the war a long time before that night.”

On that night — June 28, 1971 — the top-secret and classified Pentagon Papers sat underneath Gravel’s bed. They contained more than 1,000 pages of a 1945 to 1967 historical study on the Vietnam War that would eventually expose the lies told by presidents and politicians to the world.

“The papers reveal so many lies and misleading information about

The New York Times and Washington Post obtained the study and published articles on the information that week, including some snippets of the papers. The newspapers were sued by the federal government and a temporary restriction prevented them from reporting more on the documents.

Jones took part in a story not told by the critically acclaimed

new movie “The Post,” which focuses on The New York Times’ and Washington Post’s efforts in publishing the Pentagon Papers.

Jones helped Gravel release the papers in a different manner — reading them at a Senate subcommittee meeting, thus placing the words in public record.

With three other legislative assistants, Jones spent the night combing through the papers and redacting names that could not be released to the public. At about 3 a.m., Gravel went to sleep, but not

before letting his aides know the plan: He would call for a quorum on the Senate floor and read the papers then.

Jones’ stop at Gravel’s home came after the New York Times and Washington Post publications, but each was in the midst of a lawsuit handed down by the Department of Justice.

The lawsuit sought to prevent the news organizations from releasing the information to the public — but if Gravel did so himself, the lawsuit would essen-

After a night of weighing the pros of reading the papers before the Senate — the information could shorten the war and save lives — and the cons — potential jail time for all involved — Gravel, Jones and three other staff members had successfully combed through the thousands of pages.

“You knew that you were on the edge of high drama,” Jones said. After a sleepless night, he awaited the anticipated quorum, but said the Republican senators knew something was astray; they PAPERS CONTINUES ON 3

Veterinary medicine helps boost Ohio economy CAM GREY Lantern reporter grey.45@osu.edu The boom of veterinary medicine in Ohio has impacted the economy with a high growth rate in employment and revenue.

More than 93,000 people are employed and contribute nearly $13 billion to the state’s economy when the industry is broadly defined to include “all animal-related and other supporting business,” according to a recent joint report by the Ohio State College of Veterinary Medicine and the Ohio Veterinary Medical Association.

The report looks at both the direct and indirect impacts of veterinary medicine on Ohio.

Veterinary services directly contribute $2.4 billion to the economy and employ more than 23,000 people, the report found. The numbers rise to $13 billion and 93,000, respectively, when animal-related industries are included. Those industries include animal food manufacturing, racetracks, zoos, and farm and pet supply wholesalers.

As of 2015, veterinary services employment was 15.5 percent higher than it was in 2007 — just before the recession — and veterinary auxiliary industries’ employment was 22.2 percent higher. During that same stretch, Ohio’s total employment declined 0.9 percent, according to the report.

Rustin Moore, Ohio State University’s Dean of College of Veterinary Medicine, said he didn’t have a full explanation for the dramatic climb in employment. But he called attention to the fact the two employment figures were “much higher, respectively, than the employment rate overall in the state.”

“People are breeding more race horses, and so therefore veterinary services, in that sector, would expectantly go up.”

Rustin Moore Dean of Ohio State’s College of Veterinary Medicine

In addition, Moore credited the installation of racinos — a combination of a racetrack and a casino — at equine racetracks for contributing to the growth of veterinary services. Ohio has seven racinos.

“Horses are worth more now,” Moore said. “People are breeding more racehorses, and so therefore veterinary services, in that sector, would expectantly go up because there’s more of them and they’re worth more, so people are willing to spend money to take care of them.”

Though Moore said he is not quite sure if an increase in humanizing animals can also explain the increased economic imVETS CONTINUES ON 3

blocked anything from happening by refusing to enter the Senate chambers.

What Jones didn’t know was Gravel had a backup plan: he called a subcommittee meeting that he was in charge of at 10 p.m., 24 hours after he called Jones and his aides over to his home.

Only one congressman was in attendance, but that was enough for the meeting to be official. “[Gravel] started to read the Pentagon Papers, he read for a couple of hours and then he broke down crying,” Jones said. “Partly because of the stress.”

Because Gravel was the only senator in the session, his one vote was the only that mattered.

He voted in-favor to submit the meeting minutes — the papers, the lies, the deception — into public record.

“It was a very important moment,” Jones said. “The Republicans were furious.”

After that day, Gravel was sued by the Department of Justice, but he faced no punishment because he was found to be working in “the legit pursuit of Senate business,” Jones said. “After all, war and peace is Senate business.”

The ruling said the staff has Senate immunity, as well. On June 25, 1971, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of The New York Times and Washington Post, allowing them to continue publishing the material.

If the reading would have happened a day or two after, Jones said, the ruling on the newspapers “could have gone the other way.”

is that the goal here is to change the entire community culture,” Isaacs said. “By allowing each group to see the status of the other groups and where other chapters are, I think it helps everyone pull together.”

Cooper said he believes it’s important to keep the student body updated on stages of reinstatement.

In November, all social, recruitment and new member activities for IFC chapters were suspended after 11 of the chapters were under investigation for possible violations of the Code of Student Conduct.

Each IFC chapter — even those who were not under investigation — must complete specific steps in order to gain approval to resume activities for recruitment, new-member and social events.

Chapters must draft and submit a detailed plan for how they will conduct each type of event, according to an eight-page action plan sent to fraternities from the Office of Student Life.

Ohio State crafted the action plan with the hopes of reinstating the chapters before recruitment season began this month, a time

in which fraternities seek new members and grow individual chapters.

Each chapter must provide a detailed outline of activities that include aspects such as alcohol and hazing prevention, then submit the plan to Student Life. The Sorority and Fraternity Life team then will review each plan and make tweaks as necessary to improve clarity.

To get final approval, the plan must be approved by SFL, alumni advisers, and the chapter’s national organization.

“We have been very quick to review plans as they come in,” Isaacs said. “The time frame for all of this is purely in the hands of the chapters and their national organizations.”

Isaacs said the ultimate goal is to see a Greek culture that reflects the values of Ohio State.

“I think a small number of fraternities are still working on their plans and have not yet submitted them,” he said. “We work with the [fraternities] very rapidly and it is in everyone’s best interest that the entire community move forward in a positive way.”

“I’ve never plotted through the other 3,900 pages,” Jones said, though he owns hard copies of different volumes published.

Jones said he is and was “no whistleblower,” but the act he helped put forth created a new means of getting information out to the public.

pact, he said he has noticed an increase in the number of patients that visit the Veterinary Medical Center.

“I noticed in our hospital here, over the last seven to eight years, our small animal caseload … has gone from about 19,000 to about 30-some-thousand,” Moore said.

“So, its continued to grow despite the recession back in the 20082009 time period.”

In addition to veterinary services stimulating the Ohio economy, the human-animal bond can inspire people to invest money in dog food and toys at pet stores, as well, according to the analysis.

CONCERTS T-Swift and Sam Smith headline impressive upcoming list of 2018 Columbus concerts. | ON PAGE 5

Is that a clock tower sticker on your laptop? Yes, it is.

ASHLEY DIGGINS Lantern reporter diggins.10@osu.edu The Tom W. Davis Clock Tower has finally made it –– the campus landmark is now featured on a laptop sticker.

With student organizations constantly searching for creative fundraising tactics, it can be difficult to come up with an idea that stands out.

Abbi Voda, a third-year in English and recruitment director of Ohio State’s Relay For Life event, is tackling this challenge by selling themed laptop stickers of popular campus memes and icons. Currently, the collection features $2 stickers with three designs, including the clock tower, Urban Meyer’s head and a tribute to former campus bar Too’s Under High.

With major fundraising events happening on campus, it was important for the group to create something that would excite students. With the help of other Relay For Life directors, Voda said they used the Ohio State meme group chat and the input of friends for inspiration.

“We were just brainstorming ideas of how to raise money because it’s not always easy, es-

However, the idea didn’t happen overnight. At first, Voda said she created and sold Relay For Life-themed stickers to other members of her organization to gain some publicity.

The organization’s marketing technique only turned into a fund-

raising effort after Voda came to the realization that the laptop stickers motivated students to donate to the cause.

“I’m a big Redbubble person,” Voda said. “I have a lot of stickers myself and I liked the idea of having Relay For Life merchandise.

So first we did the Ohio State Relay logo on a sticker and that was originally just for committee members. It was never supposed to be a fundraising effort; it was just free marketing. People could

GALLERY SPOTLIGHT

Third Way Cafe sheds light on local ‘Dreamers’ JILLIAN FOUNTAIN Lantern reporter fountain.50@osu.edu The Trump administration’s approach to immigration has inspired one local gallery to share the voices of local artists who are calling attention to its effects.

The pop-up gallery at Third Way Cafe, which debuted last week, features the photography of Sahar Fadaian and Olga Pavlovska with the writings of Leticia Wiggins. The display aims to highlight the realities that young Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals recipients experience in today’s America, and to associate familiar faces with an issue that has dominated the national discourse since the measure was rescinded in September.

“They really just wish they could be just like everybody else.”

Leticia Wiggins Doctoral candidate in history

“We thought that’d it’d be important to not only see the faces of those with DACA, but also hear their words,” said Wiggins, an Ohio State alumna and current doctoral candidate in the Department of History.

The temporary exhibit is the collaborative product of the young artists and DACA Time, a software company that provides a user-friendly program for immigrants to

fill out documentation paperwork.

DACA, an Obama-era initiative, provided people brought to the United States illegally as children with protection from deportation and the ability to obtain work permits.

Fadaian, a Columbus College of Art and Design student and Iranian immigrant, was the driving force behind the entire project.

She contacted Derek DeHart and Brook Kohn, co-founders of DACA Time, energized by her passion for sharing others’ stories and with hopes of connecting with an organization that could bring the issue to light.

“I know that with what is happening in the United States, with DACA and the ‘Dreamers’ and everything else,” Fadaian said, “that it’s a very sensitive time, but you can reach more people and people are willing to listen.”

People listened on Wednesday, when the exhibit opened. Its debut even caught the attention of State Sen. Joseph Schiavoni and local media outlets. Although the night’s energy felt communal and supportive, Wiggins said it doesn’t describe the evening’s emotions in their entirety.

“It was a hybrid of feelings in that it was very supportive,” she said. “But there’s also this reality you’re struck with. All the hard work and all of the stories, unearthing those in a way that was really public was special and important, but at the same time it made everything more real.”

With the fate of the “Dreamers” still in limbo –– a short-term bill passed Monday to fund the government doesn’t include GALLERY CONTINUES ON 6

have it on their stuff and then other people would ask what Relay’s about.”

Voda said she realized she was making a small profit off these stickers, and then decided to expand her idea by designing stickers to sell to other Ohio State students.

“We decided we should look into something that would appeal to a wider audience,” Voda said.

The first of these stickers was crafted in November, around the time Too’s Under High was closing. To honor the bar, Voda said they created a design featuring a tombstone with the words “RIP Too’s.”

Voda said she hopes to expand next year with more sticker designs as new Ohio State jokes and memes pop up around campus, similar to the social-media hype following the completion of the clock tower in September.

So far, sticker sales have been generated through word-ofmouth, but Voda said she plans to publicize her endeavor through social-media posts when Ohio State’s Relay organization holds a fundraising competition with University of Wisconsin in the coming weeks.

“Fundraising is hard for college kids because a lot of us don’t have

money to spare, but when people buy the stickers they are getting something in return, so they’re more likely to donate this way,” Voda said.

“It was never supposed to be a fundraising effort; it was just free marketing.”

Abbi Voda Sticker cretor

Voda emphasized her passion for Relay For Life stems from not only its mission to raise money for cancer research and provide support for cancer patients, but also because the cause directly relates to her life in more ways than one.

“My family has a genetic disorder that kind of promises we’ll get cancer in the future,” she said.

“I lost my dad in high school to leukemia and my brother’s a twotime survivor and we get tested once a year to make sure everything’s good. So [raising money for Relay] is kind of investing in my own future in a way because we know it’s something we’ll have to deal with down the road.”

stipulations for DACA recipients –– congressional leaders have vowed to keep the issue on the table and find a solution before the program’s protections expire on March 5. In the meantime, the artists and founders of DACA Time want to continue the photo project, regardless of the outcome.

“When I was printing the images of ‘Dreamers’ I was thinking, ‘This is not enough’ for them.

There’s so many of them,” said Fadaian. “Of course we have to interview more of them, of course

we want to photograph more of them. That’s the point of it.”

Despite the hopes and plans to moving the gallery to bigger, more accessible venues, Wiggins said there are wishes that the project wouldn’t have to be so long lasting because it was born out of the potential for a devastating government decision involving people we see everyday.

“These are amazing individuals,” she said, “but as they have said in their own words they really just wish they could be just like everybody else.”

field,” redshirt sophomore running back Mike Weber said.

Barrett finished second on the team in rushing yards the past four seasons. The offense often ran options with Barrett deciding to rush the ball or hand it off to a running back. In crucial third- or fourth-and-short situations, the Buckeyes would often rely on the dual-threat quarterback to act as a power runner in order to convert first downs.

If Haskins becomes the starter, the offense would likely not rely nearly as heavily on designed quarterback runs, which effectively became an out for head coach Urban Meyer when the offense was not clicking. When completing Ohio State’s comeback against Michigan in November, Haskins showed the ability to scramble when the pocket broke down, but the offense shifted away the quantity of rushes called when Barrett was quarterback.

The quarterback run would possibly remain the most important part of the offense if redshirt sophomore Joe Burrow or freshman Tate Martell won the starting quarterback spot since both are more adept on the ground.

“I just feel like the offense can be electrifying again with a more of a passing [element] into it,” redshirt sophomore H-back K.J. Hill said.

Dobbins said he expects the running backs to get more car-

ries next season, which he thinks should not surprise anyone who has become accustomed to seeing a high amount of quarterback carries.

“Nah, I don’t find it strange at all because I mean we’ve got two great running backs, so why not run us?” Dobbins said.

When asked how the offense would change if Haskins won the job, sophomore defensive end Nick Bosa said he believes it would be beneficial to only feature Dobbins and Weber in the run game instead of the quarterback.

“I just think [Haskins is] a drop-back passer,” Bosa said. “I think that’s what we should be, a team that throws the ball with the quarterback and runs the ball with the running backs, and I think that will be really good just to get the running backs the ball more and have Dwayne just slinging it back there and making our receivers look really good.”

Of the three quarterbacks vying for the starting job, Haskins possesses the strongest arm. His teammates have called it an “NFL arm.” He showed it off early in the season in the second half blowout wins, then showcased it against the Wolverines.

With Barrett at the helm, the Buckeyes struggled to maintain a consistent downfield passing game. If Haskins becomes the starter, the potential for an increased vertical passing game

increases, which redshirt junior receiver Terry McLaurin said will be the next step for the offense.

The competition to replace Barrett began less than one month ago, but Haskins seems to already hold a substantial edge.

“I think Dwayne will be a good leader if he’s the guy,” Bosa said.

“Not many people see the fire that he has and I think he does have that fire the starting quarterback needs. I’ve seen it a couple times in the Michigan game and some other times that he’s played, so I think he’ll take the role really well.”

OSU falls behind in Big Ten race after 30-point loss at Maryland COLIN HASS-HILL Sports Editor hass-hill.1@osu.edu

up the middle.

“I just think the running will be more on me and J.K. and more passing down the field,” Weber said. “You want the ball in your hands. You want to show everybody what you can do and you want to help your team the best way you can.

“I feel like as the game goes on and situations go on, coaches call the plays and there’s only so much you can do as a player.”

There is no guarantee Weber won’t play second fiddle to Dobbins. However, he knows

the change in quarterback will require a heavier reliance on the pair. When Barrett was injured against Michigan, Dobbins and Weber received nearly the same number of carries.

Then during the Cotton Bowl, there were several two-back sets where both Weber and Dobbins stood on either side of Barrett to give the Buckeyes a trio of potential rushing options.

Dobbins said Weber’s decision to stay creates an extra element for defenses to scheme against, not just added depth.

In a season filled with high expectations, the Ohio State women’s basketball team has continued to fall short.

Its latest setback came Monday when the No. 12 Buckeyes fell 99-69 to No. 14 Maryland on the road, which gave the Terrapins sole possession of first place in the Big Ten. Maryland (17-3, 6-1 Big Ten) ended the first quarter leading 2719 and continued to extend the lead, never allowing Ohio State (16-4, 5-2 Big Ten) to pull within eight points for the remainder of the game. The Buckeyes never led.

Maryland shot 55 percent from

the field and drilled 11-of-18 triples, while Ohio State hit just 39 percent of its shots and connected on 6-of-22 3-point attempts.

The decimation follows Ohio State’s 84-75 loss to Michigan at home and gives the Buckeyes their first two-game conference losing streak since the end of the 201516 season, when they dropped an overtime road game to Minnesota and lost in triple-overtime on the road to Michigan State.

Sophomore guard Kaila Charles led Maryland with 32 points on 12-of-16 shooting and pulled down seven rebounds. Junior forward Eleanna Christinaki added 26 points and eight rebounds.

Senior guard Kelsey Mitchell was one of five Ohio State players in double-figure scoring. She led the team with 15 points and add-

ed seven assists. Redshirt senior guard Linnae Harper added 13 points and tied for the team lead with eight rebounds, but made only 6-of-16 shots. The Buckeyes did not get a boost from the freethrow line, making 5-of-6.

Maryland dominated the interior, holding a 47-32 rebounding advantage and a 46-30 edge in points in the paint. The Buckeyes’ scoring struggles continued from the first quarter to the final seconds. They shot 38 percent in the first half, made 39 percent of their shots in the second half and missed 11 of their final 13 shots.

Ohio State will attempt to bounce back Thursday when it takes on Iowa at 8 p.m. on the road.

“It’s exciting because it’s going to take a lot of pressure off of just me, like they’re going to have to worry about the two of us because I’m sure coach Meyer will put in something that will have both of us on the field and that will be deadly to stop,” Dobbins said.

Weber is not returning to be the starter. At best, he will be the co-starter with Dobbins. At worst, he will watch Dobbins rack up about 300 carries and see action only when the explosive freshman needs rest.

But there is reason to believe

Weber will produce more than the 626 yards on 101 attempts in 2017. He has one less rusher to compete against — Barrett — and will enter the season in full health.

It wasn’t an easy decision for Weber to come back. It might pay off. It might not. But now that he’s returning to the Buckeyes, he is just looking to help the team while simultaneously improving himself to improve his draft stock.

“I made a big jump from my freshman year to my sophomore year,” Weber said. “I got a lot

faster, stronger, everything, but now [Meyer’s] message is really just to enhance that and go harder and get even better.”

and two technical falls this season. Sunday was the celebration of an all-time great.

you can just get lost in the stress of it and the results of it.”

After the final home match ended, Snyder took a photo with his coaches and fellow seniors Bo Jordan and Nathan Tomasello, who hope to join him in becoming the first trio of teammates to be named four-time All-Americans in college wrestling history. Then, Snyder walked toward the Scarlet and Gray-clad fans packing the stands and screaming his name. People mobbed Snyder as he took pictures and signed autographs for 10 minutes before heading back to take a shower.

Everyone wanted a piece of history to remember watching Sunday’s match, which acted as a microcosm of his dominant college career.

The three-time All-American has won back-to-back NCAA championships, two Big Ten championships and has not lost a college match since March 21, 2015. He is the top-ranked wrestler, pound-for-pound,

in college, according to FloWrestling.

Those, of course, are only his collegiate accolades.

Snyder also became the youngest Olympic champion in U.S. wrestling history and the youngest world champion in the country’s history, achieving both feats while in college.

Snyder’s laurels have catapulted him into the legendary territory reserved for historically skilled Buckeyes, including Jesse Owens, Eddie George, Jerry Lucas and a select few others. And like them, college is just a stepping stone to further greatness.

“I’m thankful for everything, but I’m also very excited about the future and competing in other matches and other tournaments,” Snyder said. “My career is not even close to being over, God willing.”

For that reason, Snyder said he felt no different emotions, even knowing he would never again compete for Ohio State in Columbus. His collegiate accomplishments merely sit at the beginning of a list of accomplishments that will continue to grow.

Instead of overworking Ohio State’s public-address announcer with his constant takedowns, Snyder will attempt to overwhelm opponents en route to a third NCAA championship in March and in international competition for the foreseeable future.

Ohio State’s Kyle Snyder takes down Iowa’s Stephen Holloway in the dual-meet against the Hawkeyes on Jan. 21 in the Schottenstein Center. Ohio State won the duel meet 22-12.

COLIN HASS-HILL Sports Editor hass-hill.@osu.edu The same four words reverberated around the Schottenstein Center over and over during the final match of Sunday’s wrestling meet between No. 1 Ohio State and No. 3 Iowa.

“Snyder takedown. Holloway escape.”

Heavyweight Kyle Snyder toyed with his opponent, Steven Holloway. He took the Hawkeye down, then allowed him to get to his feet, only to take him down again with ease.

Holloway wrestled because Iowa held undefeated No. 3 junior Sam Stoll out against Snyder. “[Stoll] has struggled a little bit with health and I think if anyone can put you in some positions that’s not that good for your health, it’s Kyle,” Ohio State head coach Tom Ryan said.

Ryan, Myles Martin and Bo Jordan laughed when Snyder said he did not care whether Stoll decided to sit out. They, like everyone else, knew what the result would have been had Stoll wrestled.

Sunday’s result, which ended as a 24-9 technical fall win for

Snyder, was never in doubt. Instead, the spectacle of Snyder performing one last time at home attracted a season-high crowd of 15,117 fans.

If someone in the arena closed their eyes and listened to the public address announcer continually repeat those statements — “Snyder takedown. Holloway escape” — it would be hard to believe Snyder’s superiority against the overmatched opponent.

But nothing abnormal happened in Sunday’s match. Ohio State has never seen a wrestler like Snyder, who has four pins SNYDER CONTINUES ON 7

Ohio State redshirt freshman quarterback Dwayne Haskins (7) throws a pass in the fourth quarter of the game against Michigan on Nov. 25 in Ann Arbor. Ohio State won 31-20.

COLIN HASS-HILL Sports Editor hass-hill.1@osu.edu Standing in the locker room following Ohio State’s Cotton Bowl victory, redshirt freshman quarterback Dwayne Haskins took ownership of what he believed to be his new role.

“I’m just going to attack it as I’m the guy, I’m the starter and it starts ... today,” he said. “The mentality that I’m lead the team, just how J.T. [Barrett] did it. Just do it in my own way, but not like how he did it.

“It’s the mentality of guys looking for a new leader. I feel I can be that person.”

Just three weeks after that game, Barrett’s last as a Buckeye, Haskins’ mentality seems to have rubbed off on his veteran teammates, many of whom talked about him Friday as if he has a hefty lead to become next season’s starting quarterback.

No player outright said Haskins will start the season opener Sept.

1 against Oregon State, but several implied excitement for an offense more focused on passing downfield and moving toward a running back-focused run game.

Mike Weber eyes more rushing opportunities in return to Ohio State EDWARD SUTELAN Assistant Sports Editor sutelan.1@osu.edu

Ohio State redshirt sophomore running back Mike Weber (25) celebrates with Dwayne Haskins and Terry McLaurin after running the ball in for at touchdown in the fourth quarter of the game against Michigan on Nov. 25 in Ann Arbor. Ohio State won 31-20.

Ohio State running back Mike Weber stood silent with tears in his eyes, arms locked with his teammates as the Buckeyes sang “Carmen Ohio” after the Cotton Bowl win against USC. It seemed to be a sign his time at Ohio State had just ended.

It was not.

About a week and a half later, Weber announced he would return to Ohio State. The emotions that led to many inferring he would leave were more the product of it being the end of the season, he said Friday.

“I think the emotions was just all bottled up from just the whole season and how it went down as far as injuries,” Weber said. “That was more of being proud of myself to fight back and be able to play and stuff like that. It was like everything put together really. It wasn’t just me deciding whether I would leave or stay.”

The decision to stay came as a surprise to many. Weber might be relegated to a backup role in 2018 behind freshman J.K. Dobbins, who led the team in both carries (194) and rushing yards (1,403).

Another season as a backup at a position that is among the most physically demanding, when he could leave and have a chance to make money as a professional, seemed out of the question.

“I just felt like I had some stuff left over on the table to do here at Ohio State,” Weber said. “I got with [head coach Urban] Meyer and we had a good talk with [running backs coach Tony] Alford and my parents and I felt good about coming back and I feel like it was the right thing to do and that’s what I needed.”

When Weber talked with the coaches about the plans for the 2018 season, he wanted to learn about what would be his role.

Though he was hampered by a hamstring injury for the start of 2017, Weber wasn’t able to match Dobbins’ carries once fully

healthy. Dobbins finished each of the team’s last seven games with more carries than Weber.

But Weber believes the carries will start to balance out with the change of quarterback. Barrett was a mobile quarterback with a bulldozing mentality who could take the place of a third-down running back on short-yardage situations. Weber finished with fewer carries than Barrett both in 2016 as the starter at running back and in 2017 as the backup, despite averaging a combined 1.62 more yards per carry.

Next season, there will not be that bruising type of dual-threat quarterback to threaten him.

Redshirt sophomore quarterback Dwayne Haskins is a pocket passer who will likely not be called on to plow ahead for a handful of yards or run the same read-options that Ohio State ran with Barrett. Freshman Tate Martell is a shiftier quarterback who would be able to do more in space and would not be as effective rushing WEBER CONTINUES ON 7
