Glaros, interim band directors garnered positive reviews LIZ YOUNG Editor-in-chief young.1693@osu.edu An Ohio State compliance official who oversaw an investigation into the marching band and two professors who are
currently leading the band all have been given excellent performance reviews in the past. Chris Glaros, assistant vice president of compliance operations and investigations, oversaw a university investigation into the OSU Marching Band that determined there was a sexualized band culture. That investigation
led to then-band director Jonathan Waters’ firing in late July. After Waters was dismissed, University Bands director Russel Mikkelson and University Bands associate director Scott Jones were named as the interim band leaders while OSU searches for new permanent leadership. The university has said it
plans to name a new director by February. Associate director Chris Hoch and assistant director Mike Smith kept their positions in the band. The employment files of Glaros, Mikkelson and Jones — provided to The Lantern on

OSU coach Thad Matta: Too early to Required pick out team leaders crime reports vary in detail by university LIZ YOUNG Editor-in-chief young.1693@osu.edu

TIM MOODY Sports editor moody.178@osu.edu Thad Matta has had rosters led by standout freshmen and teams led by hardened veterans. This season, he’ll have a mix of both. The Ohio State men’s basketball coach is entering his 11th season at the helm in Columbus as the team boasts a roster of four true freshmen, one redshirt-freshman and six seniors. Matta sat down with The Lantern on Wednesday and discussed the task of melding together a team with a strong freshman class and experienced veterans on the same roster. ‘Still early to tell’ who leaders will be A year ago, Matta knew exactly who the leaders of his team would be. Thensenior guards Aaron Craft and Lenzelle Smith Jr. had been key contributors and leaders on the team for multiple seasons and
were handpicked go-to guys off the court. This season, the Buckeyes’ roster still boasts seniors who have been contributors — guard Shannon Scott and forward Sam Thompson, for example — but Matta said it’s still too early to say exactly who will step into leadership roles this season. “Just in terms of how the season works and once you get into practice and you hit the tough days, you’re going through a stretch where it’s the fourth practice in four days, you’ve been going hard, at what point, what guy steps forward and says ‘Hey, this is what we’ve got to do, this is how we’ve got to do it’?” Matta said. But the former Xavier University coach said he still has an idea of who exactly could step up this season. “With that said, I think that Shannon and Sam have been guys that have played huge roles in this program,” Matta said. “I would expect all of our seniors to be — in terms of
While all colleges are required to release annual reports detailing certain crimes that were reported on-campus, not all reports are the same. Federal law dictates which crimes must be included, but some Big Ten universities go beyond that. Indiana University, for example, breaks nonforcible sex offenses into categories of statutory rape and incest, beyond the forcible sexual assault offenses. Penn State University has specifics on embezzlement, forgery, fraud and prostitution. Rutgers University’s report includes statistics on fondling and serving alcohol to people under the age of 21. Not all of those additional categories are technically part of the school’s Clery data, but they are notably included in the same documents. The Clery Act was designed to make college campus crime information readily available. It was created in the name of Jeanne Clery, a student at Lehigh University who was raped and murdered in her dorm room in 1986 after crime warnings were not sent out after a series of violent crimes on campus.

during the offseason, but will be eligible to play right away because he has already graduated college. Fellow forward Jake Lorbach is a walk on who has never made an impact for the Buckeyes, and would not be expected to step into a leadership role.

Police records requests now go through OSU MICHELE THEODORE Managing editor for content theodore.13@osu.edu Requesting police reports from the Ohio State University Police Department isn’t as simple as it used to be. Requests for police reports go through the police records department. And while The Lantern used to typically receive reports a few hours after requesting them, it’s recently taken as long as nine days. That’s largely because reports now have to go through the university’s Public Records office as well. Lizabeth Corrigan, the records manager at University Police, said all reports except traffic crash reports must go through the Public Records office. ”A few weeks ago, the OSU Public Records Office asked to review all report requests before we sent them out, as they are going to change how we release reports,” she said in an Oct. 6 email. The Lantern requests select police reports every week for a crime brief. The newspaper requested reports on Sept. 30 and didn’t received the reports until nine days later. A records technician for
University Police said she had asked OSU Public Records for clearance on releasing those reports, but hadn’t heard back from the office for more than a week. The Lantern requested more records last Wednesday and received them the following day. Both the Sept. 30 and Wednesday records requests were filled on the same day. To be sure, Corrigan was sick and out of the office for a few days around the Sept. 30 request, but she passed the records request on to a records technician to handle. While OSU spokesman Gary Lewis denied there was a change and said instead that the system is streamlining the process, it actually adds additional people and another office to a system that normally filled requests within hours. Still, he said he’s not worried that the records will take longer to process going through two departments. “They have the software and technology to do certain things,” Lewis said of the Public Records office. Ohio law states that public record requests must be filled “within a reasonable period of time,” and doesn’t offer a specific time frame.

Columbus ranked No. 1 city for opportunities LEISA DECARLO Lantern reporter decarlo.25@osu.edu Soon-to-be Ohio State graduates could have more of a reason to stick around Columbus than college nostalgia. Ohio’s capital was recently announced as the No. 1 city for making a mark, by a recent Forbes ranking of the top cities for opportunity in the nation.
The ranking, which was published in September, was produced in collaboration with Sperling’s Best Places as part of a list ranking the 19 Opportunity Cities in America. The Forbes ranking was based on factors including median house prices, population size, unemployment ratings and population age. The Forbes article said resources like OSU,

campus Matta from 1A playing time, but Matta said both could still find their ways into leadership roles on the team. “Trey’s personality lends him to be a leader,” Matta said. “I think from Amir, I’m hoping he’ll come to the forefront in terms of saying, ‘Hey, I’ve got to do my part, I’ve got to help these guys and get them to understand how we do things here.’” Thompson and Scott have the most experience for the Buckeyes, having played in 111 and 108 games, respectively, while Williams has donned a scarlet and gray uniform 101 times. Freshmen “have the potential” Even with veterans leading the way on the floor, Matta said his freshmen have a
Crime from 1A offenses, burglaries, murder, robberies and motor vehicle thefts. But more information isn’t a bad thing, said Frank LoMonte, a lawyer and the executive director of the Student Press Law Center, which is a legal assistance agency that works with student journalists. “The Clery Act is a minimum, not a maximum,” he said. “There’s no reason not to volunteer additional information. You could say that’s commendable that they’re being more transparent than the bare minimum.” He said, though, he thinks most schools just track that federally required information and stop there, though the Clery Act was intended to provide families with information they’d want to know when looking at crime statistics. This year’s reports did include newly required figures about domestic violence, dating violence and stalking. University Police Chief Paul Denton said those categories were added to comply with changes to the Violence Against Women Act, which was passed in 1994 to help combat violence against women. Other than adding those mandatory categories, Abigail Boyer of the Clery Center for Security on Campus said it varies how much schools go above and beyond the requirements. She said she’s been noticing institutions issuing more notifications for crimes that “might affect their campus

chance to step into roles as leaders. He added most freshmen “lead by example,” and singled out guard D’Angelo Russell and forward Jae’Sean Tate as players setting the standard within their class. “(Russell) likes to take command of his group and get guys where they need to be,” he said. “I think that’s just his winning mentality. I think a guy like Jae’Sean Tate is a guy who’s going to play so hard, he has so much energy, that you hope that permeates throughout the team in terms of, ‘Boy, he’s so productive.’” Apart from Russell and Tate, the freshman class consists of center David Bell, forward Keita Bates-Diop and redshirtfreshman guard Kam Williams. Matta singled out Bates-Diop as a
community.” As part of the Clery Act, schools must issue timely warnings about the Clery Act crimes that present a serious or ongoing threat to the campus community. So far this year, OSU has issued eight public safety notices. Four were related to sexual assaults, two were related to robberies, one was related to an armed robbery and one was related to an attempted armed robbery. As far as the annual security report goes, though, only crimes on campus or in facilities like certain remote classrooms or Greek Life housing have to be included. LoMonte said he’s found many colleges stop at the police station and don’t look at crimes reported at other places on campus when reporting crime statistics. But “that’s not what the law says,” he said. Colleges and universities are supposed to pull together statistics from “campus police or security, local law enforcement and other school officials who have ‘significant responsibility for student and campus activities,’” according to the Clery Center website. OSU works with Columbus Division of Police, Clinton Township and Upper Arlington police departments, the Office of Student Life, the Office of University Compliance and Integrity’s Clery Act coordinator, the OSU Wexner Medical Center and the athletics department for its report. All of those entities and people provide information to be included in the report, OSU’s 2014 annual campus
player he hopes could step into a leadership role, but has room for improvement. “He understands leadership. We just need him to be a little more vocal at times,” Matta said. While he said he has some ideas of their leadership qualities, Matta said he goes into seasons without too many specific expectations for his freshman classes. He said he wants to take time to watch this year’s class before making judgments about their on-the-court status. “I go into it with a very broad vision of what I think they’re going to be,” he said. “I want to see their play over the course of time.” Matta said one of the keys will be to watch how the young players respond to both success and adversity in practice.
security reort states. But the report doesn’t include statistics for the off-campus area, where many students live. Denton, of University Police, said most crimes that occur in the off-campus area aren’t in the report. He said despite University Police’s joint jurisdiction agreement with the Columbus Division of Police, University Police is not obligated to include off-campus statistics in the report. He said Columbus Police has its own reporting obligations. The joint jurisdiction agreement allows University Police to take action against felonies or misdemeanor thefts or violent offenses officers observe off-campus, as long as officers are on campus or traveling to or from campus while they observe the incident. Denton said, however, crimes reported on public property immediately adjacent to and accessible to the university, such as on a sidewalk on North High Street, are included. Some students said they think it’s good that some colleges and universities include more than what’s required by law in their annual Clery Act reports. “It’s important, especially for
“A guy has a great practice, does he back it up with a really good practice?” he said. “Guy has a bad practice, does he have the toughness to bounce back and have a really good outing the next day?” Even though he’s still in the evaluation process, Matta said each new player on the team has done something to make him take notice. “All the new guys have done things that have caught my eye in terms of what they’re going to be able to bring to this basketball team,” he said. “Now getting it consistently is going to be the key for any freshman.” The Buckeyes’ season is set to begin Nov. 14 when they host the University of Massachusetts-Lowell at the Schottenstein Center. Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m.
big schools, to go further than what the law dictates (in reporting),” said Lyndsay Jozsa, a first-year in aerospace engineering. “It’s just better to go above and beyond for something as serious as that.” Jozsa said with there being a lot of people on campus and a lot of crime happening, it’s important to go beyond the reporting requirements. She added that it shows a university cares about its students if it discloses additional statistics. She said she thinks OSU has done an adequate job keeping students up to date with crime information, especially with the public safety notices that have been issued this year. Even so, Jozsa said she’d like to see crime statistics from the off-campus neighborhoods included. “It’s kind of sketchy because a lot of students do live in the off-campus neighborhood and they should kind of care about the students in general, not just the ones living here and their safety on campus,” she said.
Ben Albert, a third-year in biomedical engineering, agreed. “I don’t think that’s necessarily the university’s responsibility,” he said. “But it probably would be helpful if they would provide that (data).” Others, like Lauren Todd, a third-year in English, said although she thinks the university has done a better job of informing students about crimes via public safety notices, there is still room for improvement. “I don’t think they’re doing a very good job,” Todd said. “They kind of just touch on it really quickly, like, ‘Hey, by the way, someone got raped recently this past week, but don’t worry about it.’ “They don’t give you any further indication of what they’re doing to stop it or how they’re going to keep the campus safe.” Logan Hickman and Nick Roll contributed to this story.

Correction Issue 76/ Thursday In ‘O-HIGH-O State: Hempfest returns to campus, encourages activism,’ the article stated that Buckeye Event Network is a branch of the Office of Student Life. In fact, the group involves a number of other campus offices.
Reviews from 1A Friday to fill records requests filed Oct. 3 and Tuesday — include reviews praising their work and records of raises they have received. Chris Glaros Glaros’ file includes a letter from his supervisor, chief compliance officer Gates Garrity-Rokous, dated June 27, that calls his first year’s performance “phenomenal.” Garrity-Rokous asked Glaros to do a few things in the coming year related to simplifying processes and increasing efficiency, but also noted Glaros’ publicity experience. “Our office will have to make difficult decisions, and there will be occasions when our decisions or efforts will be misunderstood or misconstrued. You have the experience to handle adverse publicity of all kinds — but many on our team do not have that experience,” Garrity-Rokous wrote. “You will need to continue to lead by example in such situations.” Glaros earned $204,012 last year, reflecting a 2 percent raise. He started April 1, 2013, roughly four months before he was given the raise. Russel Mikkelson Mikkelson started at OSU in fall 1998. Since then, he’s been given multiple raises — most recently, he was given a $1,452 raise in August 2013, which boosted his salary to $95,004. His performance review in June, conducted by professor and School of Music director Richard Blatti, repeated parts of 2013’s review. Blatti said he could not “imagine our band program without (Mikkelson) at the helm” in 2013, and included that in Mikkelson’s 2014 review. “Perhaps with regard to anyone else’s evaluation, repeating myself would be disingenuous, but it is remarkable to me how consistent and steadfast your work is!” Blatti wrote this year. And in 2013’s review, Blatti also called Mikkelson’s work “consistent and steadfast,” noting some of his phrasing from Mikkelson’s 2012 review and, again, saying that “perhaps with regard to anyone else’s evaluation, repeating myself would be disingenuous.” Positive reviews for Mikkelson date back several years. In the past five years alone, Mikkelson has received a raise each year. Scott Jones Jones started as an associate professor in the School of Music during Fall Semester 2012. The following year, he was given a $1,188 raise to a $80,688 base salary. His review from this year, conducted by Mikkelson, noted his “resourcefulness, creativity and positive attitude” and said Jones has “made a positive impact” on his students. The review is broken into the areas of teaching, research and creative works, and service. Mikkelson wrote in the conclusion that Jones’ work in all three areas is “active, healthy and robust.”
Other employee files The files contrast those of some other band-related employees and officials. Associate director Chris Hoch’s employment file contained a 2013-14 review conducted by Waters. That review was not particularly complimentary — Waters said Hoch achieved expectations (of five possible choices, “achieves expectations” is in the middle) in four of five categories and fell below expectations in the final category, leadership. Assistant director Mike Smith’s employment file did not contain any performance reviews — an OSU spokesman said that’s because Smith is classified as a temporary employee as a lecturer. Waters was fired July 24. Before that, though, his work had garnered praise from his supervisors. They gave him mostly extraordinary performance reviews as he moved up through the ranks of the School of Music over the years, according to his employment file. One letter Blatti wrote to an OSU human resources manager in September 2011 said an evaluation of Waters seemed to convey an opinion of how Waters was performing that didn’t match up to what Blatti had seen. But other than that, nearly all of his reviews noted “exceptional” work that “exceeds expectations.” Waters moved from being a graduate teaching associate and lecturer in the school, to an assistant director of the band, to the interim director and finally into the director’s role starting in February 2013. Since his dismissal, Waters and his attorney have made multiple public appearances and submitted a letter asking OSU to consider rehiring him. President Michael Drake and the Board of Trustees, however, have declined to reconsider his case. Waters announced Sept. 26 that he plans to sue the university for a minimum of $1 million in compensatory damages. He will also seek punitive damages, attorney fees and reinstatement. His lawsuit claims he was not given due process and says he was discriminated against on the basis of gender. Finally, the employment file of the chief compliance officer, Garrity-Rokous, showed he received a $78,000 bonus this year without a written performance review. Chief of legal affairs Christopher Culley and chief financial officer Geoff Chatas conducted an oral review of Garrity-Rokous on Aug. 13, 2013. An OSU spokesman noted that was partly because the university was in transition. “Although it is required for all employees to receive reviews, performance management at Ohio State also involves a continuous process of feedback and mentoring, which includes verbal and written reviews. All elements of performance review, verbal and written, are key inputs in determining compensation,” university spokesman Gary Lewis said in an email Thursday. “This year’s process for performance reviews of senior leaders was one in transition. Because every senior leader participates in the ongoing, annual review process, all leaders expect to receive helpful coaching and feedback.”

campus OSU opens ER with room for emergency cancer patients RUBINA KAPIL Lantern reporter kapil.5@osu.edu The Ohio State Wexner Medical Center has opened one of the country’s first emergency departments that specializes in normal emergency medicine and emergency cancer medicine. This integrated emergency department was developed as part of the Medical Center expansion project, which began in June 2010 and is the largest expansion project in OSU’s history. The project cost nearly $1 billion, a portion of which was designated for the emergency department, said Dr. Richard Goldberg, physician-in-chief at the Comprehensive Cancer Center. The facility — named the Abercrombie & Fitch Emergency Department — consists of 15 treatment stations. Goldberg said it has physicians available for traditional emergency scenarios as well as oncologists specialized for the urgent medical needs of cancer patients.
“Cancer patients are undergoing chemotherapy and when they undergo heart attacks, strokes, etc., we want to be able to provide services to suit their anticipated needs,” said Dr. Thomas Terndrup, chair of emergency medicine. “Traditional emergency departments are either strictly for cancer patients and not others with these conditions, or for others and not cancer patients.” The emergency department is designed to begin the evaluation and treatment of all patients as soon as they arrive to eliminate the chaotic waiting process, Terndrup said. “We understand patients come in and don’t want to go through the tiresome waiting process. We want to go ahead and start assessing the patient, do an EKG, do laboratory studies, or give medication for pain right away,” he said. Integrative medicine — which in this case means combining normal emergency medicine with emergency cancer medicine — is believed to be a strong path for the

We have a lower median age and that’s fueled by the young and smart population that comes out of universities like Ohio State,” Alvarez said. People ages 25-39 made up 26.7 percent of Columbus’ population in 2012, the article said. Harris agreed that the city’s success can
future of medicine, Goldberg said. Other university medical centers, such as the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, have integrative medicine programs. OSU, however, is one of the first to have a fully staffed emergency department with cancer specialists equipped for all patient needs, Terndrup said. Anna Askari, a first-year medical student in OSU’s College of Medicine, said she is impressed but not surprised by this advancement at the Medical Center. “It’s promising to see the use of the emergency room as a way to facilitate communication between the oncologist and the emergency room physician, so the patient and their family don’t have to explain everything during an already stressful time,” Askari said. Medical students are taught the value in individualized care for all patients, something Askari said is evident by the move toward in-depth, integrative and teambased healthcare. Being an academic university
in-part be attributed to a youthful population that universities like OSU attract, as well as OSU’s long-term relationship with industries amid the Columbus region. OSU’s reputation for research, quality education and sports traditions gives the city of Columbus attention that it might not otherwise garner, Harris said. The presence of universities like OSU in the Columbus region also provides a direct pipeline to the growth and sustainability of a sound job market and workforce, he said. “Ohio State — being located in the city — provides us with some invaluable marketing that we could quite frankly not otherwise pay for as a city,” Harris said. “Ohio State is right in the middle and is what I call a validator in the respect that we actively attract (large companies).” Many of the ranking’s featured cities that were named because of their size, both small enough to not overwhelm people by the bustle of urban life and large enough to offer attractions such as museums and parks, according to the Forbes article. Other cities to make the list include Rochester, N.Y., at No. 2, Pittsburgh at No. 3 and Toledo at No. 4. “Because of the diversity of amenities

that we have, whether it’s a world class zoo, a world class university like Ohio State, places like the Short North, the parks system that we have, it provides almost every environment a person would want in one geographical location,” Harris said. “You don’t have to go to Chicago or New York. We have a little bit of a lot for everyone.” Some OSU students agreed. “I don’t think it’s hard to find a job (in Columbus) because Columbus and Ohio in general are well-located between a lot of major markets,” said Collin Stewart, a fourth-year in finance. “We have a really vibrant cultural scene. I definitely think that’s a draw for young people.” Yet, the large OSU student body size might be a source of stiff competition if too many OSU graduates choose to stay in Columbus following graduation, said Alisha Lad, a fourth-year in molecular genetics. “That puts pressure on resources and jobs in Columbus,” Lad said. “To balance the number of students, there has to be an equal demand on companies to hire.” But Alvarez said with a job market that

Although Alvarez admitted that the goals of the organization are “bold,” she said there is strong potential that Columbus will among the top cities for job creation by the year 2020. “The Columbus Region has added more than 98,000 new jobs since 2010 ,” Alvarez said. “If we keep pacing like we are now, not only are we going to reach those goals, but we are going to far surpass those goals.” She also said it is important that Columbus 2020 aims to make economic growth that will be sustainable both now and in the future. “This is a place where you can make your mark. Not only can you achieve it here, but you can achieve it here faster. Columbus is creating its story now,” Alvarez said. “We are in the middle of a really remarkable time and as we look ahead, it’s only getting better.”

Columbus Division of Police and University Police respond to a hit-and-run on Aug. 24, 2013, near the Ohio Union.
Aubrey Cornwell Lantern reporter cornwell.68@osu.edu I am just your average student. I live off campus in an apartment. I often spend weeknights at the library and weekend nights out around Columbus. And when I finish my homework or leave the party I’m at, I walk home. Recently I took my usual walk down Pearl Street back to my apartment at about 7 p.m. As I reached the intersection of 17th Avenue and Pearl Street, a cop pulled up next to me and asked me to please be careful walking alone. I was thankful he stopped. I felt protected knowing that a higher authority, this police officer, was looking out for me. However, when I really began to think about the situation, it seemed absurd. It was unfortunate that it was necessary for a police officer to pull me over to make me feel safe in a place I call home. But at what point do we, as students, get to feel safe around this campus? When it’s dark out, I personally walk on High Street, yet I feel weary of the people that line the street, often calling things out at me as I hastily walk back to my apartment. On Pearl Street, even during broad daylight, it’s not uncommon to run into

someone who makes me feel the need to check my peripherals and observe the shadows around me. On top of these circumstances, I’m often alone, like many students that walk to and from campus to their off-campus housing. It is not practical to have someone walk with you everywhere. We are all individuals with our own schedules and it is inevitable that we will have to travel places alone. With the recent chain of events this academic year on and around campus, from armed robberies to sexual assaults, it is clear that no one is safe, as unsettling as that might be to admit. The unfortunate reality is that there are people out there who are going to set out to steal from you, harm you or sexually assault you. It is terrifying and inhumane, but it isn’t avoidable. It is important to always be aware of your surroundings. If you ever feel even the slightest bad feeling about walking alone, don’t. There are plenty of other options to ensure safety. Call a friend or an Uber to drive you, or stay the night where you are and walk home in the morning. We cannot be mindless when walking the streets of Columbus like I was. Yes, it seemed crazy at the time that I was deemed unsafe by a police officer, but by no means are we safe from these criminals.
Archie Griffin’s “Tradition and Change” article in the Ohio State Alumni Magazine September/October 2014 issue includes a comparison between the firing of former OSU Marching Band Director Jon Waters and the firing of Woody Hayes. It has been reported that Archie Griffin also used this analogy in a meeting with Marching Band members and parents. I have been a fan of Mr. Griffin since 1979 when he came to speak at my school, Ridgeview Junior High School in the Columbus Public School system. Archie is an eloquent speaker and honorable person. I appreciate the commiseration, empathy and finding common ground, but this comparison is flawed. When Woody was fired, the university didn’t issue a 23-page report with a roughly-75-page appendix based on 2 percent of players, asserting that a “violent culture” existed in the football program. It didn’t state that Woody knew or should have known this was occurring, and did nothing to prevent it. It didn’t ignore documented evidence of actions taken and policies implemented to address isolated instances. When Earl Bruce was fired, the university simply said multiple years of a 9-3 record is not what we’re looking for out of this program. It didn’t further damage Earl’s reputation by publicly releasing transcripts of locker room humor from six years before he became head coach. When Jim O’Brien was fired, the university didn’t commission an outside investigation with a student survey containing inappropriate personal questions, seeking to find additional wrongdoing within the basketball program. When Jim Tressel resigned, a few players were named for their
involvement in an improper benefits scandal, but the university president did not appear on YouTube to publicly accuse the entire team and thousands of alumni football players, of a systemic culture of violating NCAA regulations. Each of these absurd responses, which thankfully did not occur in similar past high-profile firings or resignations, have since July 24, been similarly undertaken by OSU in regard to the marching band. These actions have been documented by multiple media outlets, including The Lantern and the analysis report on TBDBITL Alumni Club’s website. With the Sept. 11 statement from the U.S. Department of Education, it is now clear that these actions, the manufactured report and media circus were the intentional chosen methods to get out from under federal investigation. The end does not justify the means. The actions of the administration toward the marching band, its current and former members and staff are uniquely disturbing in OSU history, and set dangerous precedent. Which student organization is next? This has greatly damaged the reputation of OSU and, as a taxpayer of the State of Ohio and alumnus who values the prestige which a degree from this institution formerly conferred, I am deeply concerned.

Grads develop system to edit, check papers DESIAIRE RICKMAN Lantern reporter rickman.16@osu.edu While many students were enjoying their reprieve from papers and deadlines over the summer, some Ohio State alumni were developing a new service to help the writing needs of students in the upcoming school year. Cheddit is a new online editing service that seeks to provide professional edits that go beyond what OSU’s Writing Center offers. Michael Glynn, CEO and co-founder, used to edit papers for friends and international students before he graduated in May. Glynn, who studied electrical engineering, took his interest in entrepreneurship and approached his then-roommate about starting a business that would assist students with their writing. “We want to be the cheapest legitimate editing service available,” he said. “We’re trying to price our service at a point where the value we can give them is greater than what they would get from a professor or the Writing Center.” Vivek Mandan, Glynn’s former roommate and Cheddit co-founder, said the editing service’s prices used to match those of other online editing services, such as Kibin, EssayEdge and Harvard Sq. Essays, but Cheddit is cutting expenses on its end so the company can provide the most affordable rates. “We considered the average student’s budget and what they would be able to afford,” said Mandan, an OSU alumnus who studied computer science and engineering. After the decision was made to create an online editing service, Glynn and Manden decided to cater it specifically for OSU because they are aware of and understand the students’ needs. “We’re focusing on Ohio State because that’s where we feel the most demand is,” Glynn said. “We’re still
CONCERT REVIEW
Out-there Wex performance a little indiscernible DANIEL BENDTSEN Asst. arts editor bendtsen.1@osu.edu “A spaceship that crash-landed on the prairie.” It was a metaphor Wexner Center for the Arts director Sherri Geldin used to describe her arts center when introducing a Saturday night concert. It’s also a good descriptor for the strange ethereal performance that followed her remarks. Laurie Anderson and Kronos Quartet took to the stage at Mershon Auditorium for “Landfall,” a collaboration of string arrangements, visuals and spoken word. Anderson, a performance artist and composer, and the quartet first met during the Wex’s dedication 25 years ago. “Landfall,” however, was their first work together. From the onset, it was clear this would be no quaint display of chamber music. It was jarring and wild, which is no surprise considering Anderson’s inspiration for the work came in part from Hurricane Sandy’s 2012 arrival in New York. And the “songs” they played could have fit well as the soundtrack to a disaster movie or a psychological thriller. Musically, it was a lot like the symphonic crescendo in
the Beatles’ “A Day in the Life,” except that it lasted for more than an hour. More than creating music, the group struck up a tone with their instruments. More often than not, it was a controlled chaos that intensified and relaxed throughout the course of the roughly 70-minute performance. Like Hurricane Sandy, the performance was like a storm with little pockets of calm. The poetry from Anderson was even more esoteric. During the quieter moments, she would whisper thoughts and stories into the microphone — sometimes nostalgic, but always mysterious. A screen behind the performance subtly matched the music with colors or intermittent displays of scrolling words — with varying amounts of the text replaced by Wingdingsesque symbols, it was sometimes legible, sometimes not. A show so strange was hard to digest and even harder to critique. It was like watching a symphony through a thick layer of LSD. Anderson’s delivery of the spoken word elements was flamboyant yet reflective. It was such an unnatural way of talking that it was frustrating at first, but finally hypnotizing once I had given in to it. At the beginning, I was working to decipher what was before me. I tried to rationalize the irrational, and trying to experience it cerebrally was frustrating.
Eventually I gave in, listening and watching it passively like a dream I couldn’t understand but was fully enthralled by. I imagine it was a loss of control each audience member would have to accept if they wanted to get anything from this. With general admission tickets between $32 and $45, it was either a courageous or cocky decision for the Wex to make this a marquee event in a 2,500-seat auditorium. Perhaps a little disappointing, too, was that the chaos never evolved into something purely “pleasant” sounding. Almost entirely devoid of melodies, there was nothing crowd-pleasing about the music, and I imagine a lot of the audience left thinking “huh, well, that was … interesting.” And if the music could be frustrating, it was at least always interesting, and that’s a credit to the technical skill of the five string players. They didn’t break out into melodies, but their bows scrapped across the strings in ever-curious ways. The sounds weren’t pretty, but they were almost always fantastically tenacious. The musicians were as versatile with their instruments as Linus is with a blanket. STORY CONTINUES AT:

“We want what’s best for the students... I know what it’s like to have limited funds.” - Alex Barbur, chief technology officer for Cheddit flexible in what we’re offering and are actually seeking feedback through students. From there, we hope to branch out to different schools.” Every editing service needs a good team of editors, so Glynn and his fellow three co-founders, which also include Eric Amador and chief technology officer Alex Barbur, began the search for theirs. Glynn said the editors chosen had to complete sample edits, have at least a bachelor’s degree in an English or writing-related field and have five or more years of editing experience. “We actually hired less than 1 percent of the applicants, so it’s really tough to get in,” Mandan said. They selected about 10 editors and are hoping more experienced editors apply. As students, the founders were able to recognize some of the needs that other students would expect in an editing service. Alex Barbur, Cheddit’s chief technology officerstudying computer science, said he believes understand students better than other online editing services. “We want what’s best for the students,” he said. “I know what it’s like to have limited funds.” Cheddit offers two tiers of editing services. The standard edit includes help with mechanical issues, such as spelling, grammar and punctuation. The extended edit includes everything in the standard edit as well as improvements to the document’s style, cohesion and flow. For the extended edit option, students can choose for the editors to either make the edits to the document or just send it back with suggestions on how to improve their submission. Students are able to get an estimate for the cost of Cheddit’s services before signing up on the website. For standard edits, students can expect to pay about $10-$15 for 1,000-word documents and about $20 for extended edits. The estimate increases with the word count. Prices are also determined on the time of day the deadline is set by the student. Students can expect to pay a little more if they want their edits returned in the morning as opposed to evening deadlines. Cheddit accepts documents between 100 and 5,000 words in length, as well as different types of documents, including resumes and cover letters. Glynn said specific services could change depending on feedback from students. “The whole goal of all that we offer is to take what a student has already written, the ideas they have expressed and then enhance those ideas through the way they are presented,” he said. “By next semester, we hope to have an official launch and use the feedback we get to improve what we offer to students.”

MOVIE REVIEW
Breathtaking atmosphere, acting make ‘Gone Girl’ unsettling MARTIN LOPEZ Lantern reporter lopez.390@osu.edu Oscar-nominated director David Fincher’s newest film, “Gone Girl,” is an engaging and hugely entertaining thriller and drama. I’m not sure that its dark sense of humor or sordid plot will ensure its success come awards season, but its eerie cinematography, gorgeous atmospherics and fine lead performances make it a worthwhile watch. The film, adapted from a bestselling novel by author Gillian Flynn, has an intriguing and thrilling premise that unravels to become a deeper, more cynical take on marriage. The script, helmed by Flynn herself, keeps the viewer engrossed in the premise (even if sometimes it becomes a little campy or easy) with its quick wit and taut dialogue. Better yet are the performances. While the ensemble of supporting actors — ranging from Kim Dickens’ detective, or Tyler Perry’s sleazy defense attorney, to Carrie Coon as the sister of Ben Affleck’s character — is strong, the leads really shine. Star Affleck plays an unorthodox role throughout the film. During the film, the audience is left wondering whether Affleck is a clueless, smooth everyman or a bona fide psychopath. And as Nick Dunne, Affleck gives an understated and charming performance. But the film’s breakout star will
definitely be lead actress Rosamund Pike. Pike has been in a plethora of films since the 1990s, most notably being a “Bond girl” in 2002’s “Die Another Day,” but she has never managed to become a household name. After seeing this movie, one is left to wonder why it took so long. The apt actress lends equal doses of charm and
malice to her role as the wife of Affleck’s character. She interchangeably makes the viewer feel both sympathetic and agnostic about her character. She is simply captivating here, so it is no surprise that Pike is being talked about as an Oscar contender. And make no mistake — this is the finest performance by an actress I’ve seen so far this year, meaning that an Oscar nomination, or even a win, would be absolutely deserved. And Fincher, known for his films “The Social Network,” “Fight Club” and “Seven,” lends his usually eerie and gorgeous style to “Gone Girl.” The movie looks great and Fincher crafts a number of striking shots. Without spoiling anything, his transcendent visual form makes the ending scene all the more haunting and stunning. The soundtrack by Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor and collaborator Atticus Ross should also be noted. This is the third movie that the team has worked with David Fincher on and it shows. Their simultaneously ambient and elusive music fits the proceedings perfectly and syncs with Fincher’s direction. Overall, “Gone Girl” is a must-see. The story can be at times a bit campy and it can provide something of an over-the-top commentary on marriage, but the movie more than makes up for these shortcomings. Its strong ensemble cast, stellar direction and awesome atmospherics make it a wonderful thriller.

Anyone who wants to know the truth about the Ohio State University Marching Band and its director, Jonathan Waters, needs only to read the TBDBITL Alumni Club’s Investigative Committee (IC) Report. The 100-page report, with an appendix of several hundred pages, is supported by specific citations to individuals, statements and evidence. It directly addresses the false conclusions contained in the cursory 23-page, unreferenced Investigation Report (IR) prepared by the Office of Compliance and Integrity at The Ohio State University. The TBDBITL IC Report, released Sept. 12 after an investigation of nearly two months, sets the record straight with comprehensive and documented facts. It concludes with a call, once again, for a response and dialogue with the university. Copies were delivered to all appropriate university officials. Now, weeks later, we have received no response to any of the points in our IC Report, and no word of any desire to dialogue. With OSU’s IR now discredited, the university’s unwillingness to engage in an open and honest dialogue is even more difficult to understand. The university’s IR is an inaccurate attack on the career and character of Jonathan Waters, an outstanding educator who received exemplary performance reviews from his university superiors and who generated significant revenue and international acclaim for OSU. The IR is also an attack on the morals and character of the very students the Office of Compliance and Integrity purports to protect, as well as those of generations of Marching Band alumni. In notable contrast, the TBDBITL IC Report establishes that the IR, with its blanket accusations and unfounded generalizations, has itself resulted in a truly hostile environment for band students, alumni and their families. Meanwhile, the university claims that it is committed to the best interest of its students. The entire Investigative Committee Report of the TBDBITL Alumni Club is available on tbdbitl.com. It begins with a description of its methodology and the responses received from the university administration. Next are sections on relevant band history, Title IX and the university IR. Particularly noteworthy are Sections IV, V, and VI, which detail the numerous deficiencies of the IR and its methodology. The university continues to use the IR as the basis for the termination of Director Jonathan Waters, in spite of its proven biased and inaccurate content. Our IC Report identifies these deficiencies in the university’s report: • False, inaccurate statements • Blanket accusations that lack supporting evidence • Omission of information that would contradict conclusions that therefore appear to have been predetermined • An unrepresentative, statistically insignificant sample of interviewees, with an emphasis on witnesses recommended by the complainant • Hearsay and secondhand accounts without direct contact with those involved, resulting in assumptions, speculation and incorrect conclusions • Non-redacted personally identifying information, including widely known nicknames • Outdated information that is irrelevant to the IR’s supposed 2013-14 scope, coupled with the misleading omission of dates, which hid how much information fell outside that scope • Unnecessary inclusion of shocking material (much of it outdated or hearsay), apparently to evoke an emotional response • Presenting incidents as evidence before noting that those incidents had already been dealt with aggressively and appropriately by band staff, or complete omissions of information about such rectifying consequences • Contradictions stating that Mr. Waters “did nothing,” even though the report itself notes that several of its own examples were banned and no longer occur • The dubious assertion that a collection of isolated incidents by some individuals constitutes a “culture” of an organization, without wider examination of the actual predominant culture
•
The implication that university educators are responsible for unsanctioned behaviors (some of which were directly prohibited) of adult students during unsupervised time • The absence of Mr. Waters’ defense document, even though the IR references it • Omissions of Mr. Waters’ other actions to enact positive change • Sensationalized and biased language • Unsubstantiated, patronizing characterization of female band members as victims Moreover, the TBDBITL IC Report describes and documents positive aspects of the Marching Band culture ignored by the IR. The climate surrounding the preparation and release of the IR includes perceived pressure resulting from a U.S. Department of Education investigation of the university’s Title IX compliance, as well as a history of conflicts within the OSU School of Music. Ironically, those most responsible for the Title IX enforcement deficiencies at the university conducted the investigation of Jonathan Waters and the Marching Band, which was then used as a cornerstone of the university’s defense to investigators. The effects of the IR on the band, its members and its alumni are delineated in Section X. Particularly concerning are the statements from current band students, who detail disturbing incidents of harassment and emotional, academic and professional struggles they have experienced as a direct result of the claims of the IR and the information cited within it. Finally, there is a discussion of the university’s responses to the varied attempts of dialogue, noting the multitude of communications sent to university officials by TBDBITL members and the general public. Many of these failed efforts at communication are documented in full in the attachments. After consideration of this wealth of comprehensive, verified information, we present the following recommendations: • Jon Waters must be immediately reinstated as director. • Control of the Marching Band should move outside the School of Music. • The university must publicly declare the inaccurate nature of the IR. • The university must apologize to, and begin constructive dialogue with, current and former band members, in recognition of the negative effects they have suffered. • The university must recognize that its obstinate stance on this matter has damaged relationships within the university and alumni communities. • Honest, open dialogue between the university and the band community must begin. It has now been more than two months since the original IR was released: More than two months of a culture of fear and silence created by the university administration. More than two months of obstinate statements crafted with the same buzzwords. More than two months of bland, broken promises and meaningless token gestures. Still, the TBDBITL Alumni Club remains committed to exposing the truth and speaking for our band family. The well-being of current band students and the future of the band are top priority, as are the restoration of the personal and professional reputations of all past and present band members and directors. Our Honor Defend, TBDBITL Alumni Club The Ohio State University Marching Band Alumni

5 lessons from OSU’s week off james grega, jr. and Tim moody Asst. sports editor and Sports editor grega.9@osu.edu and moody.178@osu.edu Even though the Buckeyes had the weekend off, there was still plenty going on around the college football world. For instance, we have seen a new No. 1 crowned and a new Heisman hopeful emerge, while another might have seen his season come to an end. With everything that went on, there was a lot to keep up with, so The Lantern sports editors compiled a list of five things we learned during the week off in Columbus. 1. The rules are still the rules, but people can’t seem to remember There was a time when it was surprising every time a high-profile athlete got in trouble for off-the-field issues. Today, it seems easier to expect the worst than anything close to the best from athletes at the collegiate and professional levels. Georgia junior running back Todd Gurley — who was arguably the Heisman Trophy front-runner heading into the week — was suspended indefinitely for a violation of NCAA rules. What did he do? Sign a lot of autographs for a lot of money that he — within the rules — could not have legally accepted. If that story sounds familiar, it’s because the same (or close to the same) thing happened to Johnny Manziel before his final season at Texas A&M. Manziel was

Emphasis put on special teams james grega, jr. Asst. sports editor grega.9@osu.edu During the Jim Tressel era at Ohio State, Buckeye fans knew what to expect: a largely conservative offense with an emphasis on special teams. One of those things remains true under thirdyear OSU coach Urban Meyer. Following an Oct. 4. win over Maryland, in which the Buckeyes held the explosive Terrapin return game to just 12.7 yards per kickoff return, Meyer was ecstatic about his special teams unit. “That kickoff team, those are my guys. I might put them in first-class on the flight home. I have so much respect for those guys,” Meyer said after the game. “I love their demeanor and how they answer challenges. I was very impressed with our coverage units.” Not only did the Buckeye kickoff team shut down the Terrapins, the punt team, despite only seeing the field twice, did not allow Maryland to attempt a return. In fact, one of those punts — a 69-yard boot from sophomore punter Cameron Johnston — pinned Maryland inside its own 10-yard line. OSU redshirt-freshman linebacker Darron Lee picked off Maryland redshirt-senior quarterback C.J. Brown on the first play of the ensuing drive, eventually leading to a Buckeye score. Johnston said seeing his teammates capitalize on the exceptional special teams play is always enjoyable. “It was nice to be able to get it down there and then Darron (was) able to take that.” Johnston said. “It definitely feels good.” Junior linebacker and special teams specialist Craig Fada said Wednesday that the special teams units get a lot of attention in practice. “We work on special teams countless periods every day in practice and it’s just a way for us to change the game,” Fada said. “It’s a way for us to have our defense in a better

OSU won, 52-24. position, our offense in a better position, just to help all around.” He added that playing special teams for the Buckeyes is another way for younger players or unproven players to show the coaches they are deserving of more playing time. “We put a big emphasis on special teams and it gives younger guys a place to make an impact on the game,” he said. “And all the younger guys always want to get on those, and even the guys that aren’t fully equipped to get on defense yet want to get onto special teams, and that’s just a way to help.” During last Tuesday’s Big Ten teleconference, Meyer mentioned one specific player whose play on special teams has kept him in a scarlet and gray uniform. Redshirt-sophomore running back Bri’onte Dunn, who has seen limited time on offense this season, saved his Buckeye career on special teams, Meyer said.
Penalties spark, doom men’s soccer ryan cooper Lantern reporter cooper.487@osu.edu Facing a top-10 opponent, the Ohio State men’s soccer team’s goalscoring on Sunday afternoon lived by a penalty kick — and ultimately died with a penalty kick. The Buckeyes (4-5-3, 2-2-0) played a tight game throughout the 90 minutes against the No. 10 Indiana Hoosiers (8-1-3, 2-1-1), but were ultimately unable to match the play of their opponent, falling at home, 2-1. A penalty kick by junior defender Kyle Culbertson — his second try of the day following a successful one — was knocked away with just over a minute remaining to seal the Indiana victory. “I’m heartbroken for the guys right now, because although there were stretches of the game where we made some bad mistakes and hurt ourselves, we played well enough to win the game and I think deserved to win the game,” OSU coach John Bluem said. The Hoosiers broke a 1-1 tie in the 78th minute with a goal by freshman forward/ midfielder Jay McIntosh. Heavy pressure in front of the net allowed McIntosh to take a pass and knock it into the far-right post, where it ricocheted into the net.
By defeating No. 24 Northwestern, the Ohio State women’s volleyball team made history as the program won three consecutive matches against ranked opponents for the first time ever. The Buckeyes (13-5, 4-2) and Wildcats (13-4, 3-3) were incosistant at times in the four sets, losing by scores of 25-21, 26-24, 17-25 and 25-17. Inconsistency was something OSU coach Geoff Carlston said he saw throughout the match, even though his team came out on top. “I thought tonight was an interesting matchup,” Carlston said. “I don’t think either team played particularly well. Those are the important matches that you got to win, especially those at home. This is a match we needed.” The Buckeyes were led by senior setter Taylor Sherwin’s double-double as she led all players with 46 assists and added 10 digs. Sophomore libero Valeria León led all players with 19 digs and sophomore middle blocker Taylor Sandbothe added 16 kills. ESPNW’s National Player of the Week and OSU junior outside hitter Elizabeth

The Ohio State men’s hockey team had an up-an-down ride through its weekend. After defeating No. 4 Providence, 5-4, in overtime on Friday night, the Buckeyes fell to the Friars, 2-1, in overtime on Saturday in Columbus. The two one-goal games extracted a range of feelings from OSU. In one day, the Buckeyes’ temperament went from euphoric to downcast. Providence freshman forward Brian Pinho’s goal with 45 seconds remaining in overtime of Saturday’s game sparked the mood change. “It’s disappointing we lost tonight. We gave ourselves a chance,” coach Steve Rohlik said on Saturday. “It’s a tough one to lose in overtime, but I’m proud of our team.” Following a five-goal Friday night, the Buckeyes’ offense could not top the Friars on Saturday despite building momentum in the second period. “We had a lot of rebounds that we didn’t really take advantage of,” OSU senior forward Chad Niddery said. “The bounces just didn’t come for a few (rebounds) that we had right down low.” The Buckeyes’ offensive push was created after OSU killed a five-minute misconduct penalty to start the second period, Rohlik said. The misconduct, issued to sophomore defenseman Josh Healey for contact to the head, left the Buckeye blue line shorthanded for the final 40 minutes. “That’s hockey, that’s going to happen sometimes and you have to be prepared for that,” OSU junior defenseman Sam Jardine said. “We adapted and I think the legs were there.” Buckeye sophomore goalie Matt Tomkins finished the night with 27 saves on 29 shots, the last of which was a wrist shot from the high slot that squeaked under his arm. “(Tomkins) played very well,” Rohlik said. “He gave us every opportunity to win a hockey game.” OSU was outshot 29-27, but lost its biggest battle in the face-off circle where Providence won 38 of 61 draws. Scoring opened eight minutes into the third period when Providence freshman defenseman Logan Day fired a wrist shot from the slot past Tomkins. Less than a minute later, OSU freshman forward Luke Stork took a pass from freshman forward Nick Jones and tied the game with his first collegiate goal. Jones was in Saturday’s lineup after Buckeye

Junior defender Kyle Culbertson attempts a penalty kick during a game against Indiana on Oct. 12 at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium. OSU lost, 2-1, as Culbertson converted one penalty kick, but missed another in the game’s closing minutes. McIntosh’s goal — the first of his collegiate career — came less than 50 seconds after the Buckeyes had tied the game. An Indiana defender attempted to clear
out the ball in front of his goalkeeper, but did so with his hand, granting the Buckeyes a penalty kick. The kick was

“He was gone. He would not be renewed next year if he would not have made a jump on the field and off the field,” Meyer said. “He earned it, for about two, three weeks in a row in practice on scout punt rush he was our best player. (Gave) incredible effort, and he earned some playing time. He is now starting on three special teams phases and we are going to think about working him into the offense now. “What an incredible journey he has been on, and we hope it sticks.” Johnston, Fada and Dunn might not be household names in Columbus but neither were Mike Nugent, Jake McQuaide or Nate Ebner when they first entered Ohio Stadium. All three are now on NFL rosters as special teams standouts. The Buckeyes are scheduled to take on Rutgers on Saturday at Ohio Stadium. The homecoming kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m.
Campbell had eight digs, six kills and an assist. Northwestern freshman outside hitter Symone Abbott, the Big Ten co-Freshman of the Week, led her team in kills with 14 and added a dig. The Wildcats came into the game having won eight of their previous 10, with a win against then-No. 18 Minnesota and losses at No. 5 Penn State and against No. 6 Wisconsin. Carlston said the X factor for the Buckeyes during the game was freshman outside hitter Luisa Schirmer, who provided the team with seven digs, five kills and a service ace. “I don’t think we win without her because she just added a spark, an energy (and) kills,” Carlston said. There’s a chance the Buckeyes could be a top-25 ranked team at the start of next week as the team came into the week unranked but received votes in the American Volleyball Coaches Association. Junior middle blocker Andrea Kacsits said this team is different than in years past, and in a good way. “Whether we’re home or away, we prepare for these (ranked) games just the same, regardless of our opponent,” Kacsits said. “I think it doesn’t phase our team. In years past it might have been a different culture at home or on the road,
but this team in particular, there is no change. We prepare for teams just the same.” The Buckeyes are scheduled to be back on the road this week to face Indiana (12-6, 3-3) and No. 14 Purdue (16-2, 6-0) back-to-back. OSU is scheduled to face the Hoosiers on Friday and the Boilermakers on Saturday. Both matches are set for a 7 p.m. start.

sports unexplainable occurrence. The Buckeyes’ idle rise should come as less of a surprise, and more of a testament to the general public’s acceptance that OSU still has some life this season, even after losing a game early in non-conference play.
5 Lessons from 9A suspended for one half of a football game, while Gurley is seeing his season in jeopardy for a similar offense. The claims against the Georgia man seem more substantiated, but the crackdown shows tighter enforcement of rules that are more and more debatable every day. Gurley should be allowed to sell autographs, but he can’t, and all collegiate athletes need to remember the rules no matter how much they might disagree. 2. Dak Prescott is your Heisman front-runner The leader of the newly crowned No. 1 team in the country seems to have taken the reins as the leader for the 2014 Heisman trophy. Redshirt-junior quarterback Dak Prescott has led the Mississippi State Bulldogs from an unranked team to the best in the country behind three straight wins against top-10 teams. In those games, Prescott has totaled 782 yards through the air for five scores and two interceptions while adding another 303 yards on the ground to go along with six additional scores. Prescott was largely two or three on everyone’s Heisman list, however once Gurley was suspended indefinitely, Prescott jumped to the front of the list. As of now, it is looking like, for the third straight season, a relatively unknown quarterback

Michigan has life It might be hooked up to an iron lung, but it is still breathing. The Michigan football program got much-needed win over the Penn State Nittany Lions on Saturday night in front of its home crowd in the school’s third-ever home night game win. While it wasn’t pretty, the 18-13 victory gave the Wolverines their first conference win of 2014 and put an end to a three-game losing streak despite amassing just 256 total yards and one touchdown. UM coach Brady Hoke still has a lot of work ahead of him
Hockey from 9A sophomore forward Nick Schilkey left Friday’s game with an apparent shoulder injury. Despite Schilkey’s early exit, OSU didn’t struggle to score on Friday. Backed by junior forward Anthony Greco’s hat trick and two goals from senior forward Tanner Fritz, the Buckeyes erased four one-goal deficits en route to a season-opening win. Sophomore goalie Christian Frey finished Friday with 26 saves. The Buckeyes scored three power play goals on seven chances in the game, going three-for-eight on the weekend. OSU killed all seven penalties it took during the series.
in order to save his job, but for now, the sun will shine a little brighter in Ann Arbor, Mich. 4. Taking a week off doesn’t mean a fall in the rankings The Buckeyes didn’t fall lower than No. 15 in the Associated Press top 25 poll, and they actually climbed two spots to No. 13, despite having the week off. That’s made especially interesting considering the fact that OSU took a tumble on the rankings earlier this season despite demolishing Kent State, 66-0, that weekend. The polls are generally unpredictable and not particularly important in the grand scheme of college football, but winning a game and moving down in the process is an unlikely and mostly
5. J.T. Barrett is even better this week, despite not playing The redshirt-freshman quarterback’s numbers have been staggering so far this season, putting him near the top of the national rankings in multiple categories. Heading into the Buckeyes’ bye week, Barrett was No. 4 nationally with a pass efficiency rating of 186.3. Fourth best is pretty good, but the Wichita Falls, Texas, native got to watch games from his couch this weekend and still managed to become the thirdmost efficient passer in college football. Barrett slots into the rankings behind Oregon redshirt-junior Marcus Mariota and Clemson freshman Deshaun Watson — two names that were much more recognizable than his own coming into the season. Among the players Barrett ranks ahead of are UCLA redshirtjunior Brett Hundley, Alabama redshirt-senior Blake Sims and reigning Heisman winner and Florida State redshirt-sophomore Jameis Winston. The numbers are a testament to his talent, but Barrett’s ability to rise in the rankings despite not playing is just another reminder that simple statistics must be taken with a grain of salt.
Providence coach Nate Leaman spoke highly of the Buckeyes after Saturday’s game. “I think they have a really good hockey team,” Leaman said. “I think that team’s probably going to surprise some people this year.” OSU is set to play a home-and-home series against Miami University next weekend, starting on Friday at the Schottenstein Center at 7 p.m. Loose pucks • Six freshmen made their OSU debuts this weekend • Matt Weis, Luke Stork and Nick Jones registered their first collegiate points during the series • The Buckeyes are 3-2 all-time against Providence
Soccer from 9A taken by Culbertson, who rolled a shot to the left side of the net while Indiana sophomore goalkeeper Colin Webb dove to the right. The goal was Culbertson’s second of the season, and seemed to turn around the momentum of the game until McIntosh’s strike seconds later. “Their quality combined with the amount of effort we put in during the first 25 or 30 minutes, maybe we got a little bit tired,” junior midfielder Zach Mason said. “But I think it’s just something where we had moments, and they had moments, and unfortunately they took better advantage of their moments.” With just more than a minute remaining, it was déjà vu for the Buckeyes and Hoosiers, as another handball gave the Buckeyes another penalty kick — which was again taken by Culbertson. However, there was no such luck on Culbertson’s second try, as Webb again dove right, only this time directly to where Culbertson shot the ball. The sophomore knocked it away, sealing the win for the Hoosiers. “That’s very hard to make two penalty kicks in one game,” Bluem said. “But we felt confident that he could do it, so we went with him, and I wouldn’t change the decision. I felt it was the right decision then and unfortunately their goalkeeper came up with a big play.” Indiana opened the scoring early in the second half, when heavy traffic in front of the net allowed the ball to bounce out to junior forward Femi Hollinger-Janzen, who deposited the shot into the empty net. “We defended poorly, on both goals against us today,” Bluem said. “That’s all I’ll say about that, we just defended poorly.” The Buckeyes controlled the ball throughout the majority of the first half. However, their aggressiveness did not lead to any scoring, as three goal-scoring opportunities — two shots by sophomore forward Danny Jensen wide of the net and a rocket off the foot of senior midfielder Max Moller knocked away by a diving Webb — all went for naught. “I think that we had the opportunity to score, myself included, and we didn’t put them away” Jensen said. “At the end of the day, you have to put those chances away to win the game against a top-10 team in the nation.” OSU is set to have five days off before traveling to Madison, Wisc., to take on the Wisconsin Badgers on Saturday. That match is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m.
