What do you think of a Kroger remodel?

The 39,000 square foot grocery store dubbed “Kro-Ghetto” by many Ohio State students has seen better days. Ofÿcials say there are more good days to come. The aging Kroger store located at 1350 N. High St., near King Avenue, is being replaced by a larger store that will edge into the parking lot of the existing property. One of the closest grocery stores to OSU’s campus, the revamped store aims to address concerns from some students, said Beth Wilkin, a Kroger spokeswoman. Some students have complained about problems with meat at the store. Others said fruits and vegetables are poorly maintained. “The produce department is awful,” said Heather Williams, a second-year law student at OSU. “There are fruit ° ies around all of the produce.”

Is recruiting out of control?

“I live right behind this store. I love it. My only concern is that the new plans are not going to be as accessible to pedestrian traffic coming from Sixth and Courtland.”

“The main problem I have is the overall cleanliness of this store. I would love a new Kroger.”

Robert Gary was out of town coaching the Ohio State track and ÿeld team when his 13-month-old son Percy walked for the ÿrst time. Missing that early monument in his son’s life was “pretty tough,” Gary said. “You always wish you could be there for that.” Gary’s con° ict between his job and his family life is the rule rather than the exception in college sports. With practice schedules that run most of the year, not to mention recruiting duties and individual training during the offseason, college coaches can lose at home even if they’re winning with their teams. “There are steps in the development of my two sons that I haven’t been there for,” said assistant men’s basketball coach Brandon Miller, who has 3-year-old and 2-year-old sons. “I got to see Mason’s ÿrst steps. I did not get to see Michael’s.” With seven-day work weeks and frequent road trips, such losses are inevitable for many coaches. “I think last year, all told, I was home eight weekends out of the entire year,” Gary said. “One of the good and bad things about college coaching is there is always something you can be doing.”

OhioLINK pitching, recycling thousands of books to save space ALEXA ODOM Lantern reporter odom.33@osu.edu Ohio book depositories, including one at Ohio State, are throwing away or recycling thousands of reference books to make room on overcrowded shelves. Administrators say they have to toss the books because they don’t have enough money to buy more storage space. But money woes aside, some historians and students are dismayed by the decision. “I think it’s an absolutely terrible policy for us to pursue as the ° agship university in Ohio,” said Kevin Boyle, an OSU history professor. “You can’t measure the quality of a book or the quality of a library collection as a popularity contest. “We understand to have a ÿrst-rate football team we need to have ÿrst-class equipment. The same goes for scholarship. We need the resources on this campus to be a great research institution.” There are ÿve book depositories, including one at OSU, in the OhioLINK system — a collaboration of university libraries that gives students access to other schools’ books. Those collections add up to almost 10 million volumes. Several thousand volumes are being removed because there is not enough money to create more space for books, said Anita Cook, director of OhioLINK systems. To alleviate the space issue and help keep some of the older materials, most of the information is being digitized, said Stacy Brannan, OhioLINK’s marketing and communications coordinator. Though many volumes can be recycled, those with glue binding cannot, she said. The new policy of “de-duplication” — disposing of duplicate copies — reduces the number of books available, leaving two copies. One is for circulation, and the other is archived. Boyle said that’s not enough. “We have no assurance that those electronic versions are even going to be readily available,” he said. “If it’s on the shelf, a book is always available.” Sujin Kim, a fourth-year in welding engineering, is concerned that digitizing books might not be environmentally friendly. “The problem is that when you digitize books, if you put your course work online or your textbook, most people have a copy that they can hold,” she said. “So even if you digitize a copy, people are still printing them, so you’re not reducing the usage of paper.” The ÿrst cycle of de-duplication is near completion, and another is set to start in January.

The Research Services Building on Ohio State’s Wooster campus is one of many that was damaged by a tornado Sept. 16.

Wooster tornado damage will likely cost millions JENNY FOGLE Lantern reporter fogle.96@osu.edu Damage from the tornado that ripped through Ohio State’s Wooster campus more than six weeks ago will likely cost millions of dollars to repair, university ofÿcials said. “They are still trying to get the (total cost) together, but I don’t think there is any doubt that it will be in the tens of millions of dollars,” said David Benÿeld, associate director of the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center. Other ofÿcials warned against setting any number in stone, as the damage is still being evaluated. But the ÿnal bill could exceed $10 million, said Mary Lynn Readey, associate vice president of OSU’s Facilities Operations and Development, at a meeting of the Agricultural Affairs Committee late last week. The insurance company paying the

claims, Zurich Business Insurance, has yet to determine the ÿnal cost of repairs. The university is also working with Marsh, an insurance broker and risk adviser. The cost will ultimately include repairs for buildings damaged in the storm, including the administration building, greenhouses and the Secrest Arboretum. Estimates for the arboretum alone are thought to exceed $350,000, including projects such as planting new trees and other plants, said Ken Cochran, the arboretum’s director. Ofÿcials said it’s easier to put a price tag on damaged buildings, but the cost of destroyed research materials is difÿcult to calculate. “How do you put a number to tomatoes that contain high amounts of lycopene that can help ÿght cancer?” said Mauricio Espinoza,

campus Singing anthem for rally ‘surreal’ for student ALLY MAROTTI Lantern reporter marotti.5@osu.edu Thirty-five thousand pairs of ears listened to him and dozens of cameras aimed at him, delivering his every action to thousands more watching from home. Calvin Griffin, a fourth-year in vocal performance from Worthington, sang the national anthem at the Democratic rally on the Oval featuring President Barack Obama on Oct. 17. During his performance, Griffin felt something unfamiliar — he was nervous. “It was amazing, almost surreal,” Griffin said. “I don’t usually get nervous, but I got nervous, mainly because you can’t mess those words up because everyone will know.” Although Griffin has sung the national anthem at other events, such as high school football games and a memorial service for a senator, singing for the president was a new experience. Griffin’s resume, full of operas and opera apprentice programs, reveals his classical training. The operas are usually in a different language, he said, so no one knows if he misses a word. “Once in a while, you’ll forget and you have to scramble,” Griffin said. “There’s no scrambling with ‘The Star-Spangled Banner.’” Despite his nerves, he never stumbled. “He is one of the several singers in

the vocal program at OSU that on any given day at any venue internationally could sing the national anthem and represent the United States in a very positive way,” said Patrick Woliver, Griffin’s voice teacher. Andrew Garner, Griffin’s best friend and a fourth-year in music education, said Griffin’s national anthem rendition was indicative of how he performs everything. “His musicianship is impeccable,” Garner said. “I don’t know anyone who knows his stuff better than he does.” Griffin and Garner met as first-year students in Ohio State’s Men’s Glee Club. “He has a ton of natural talent and he’s just a hard worker on top of that,” Garner said. “He’s so driven and focused on what he wants to do professionally but he can still turn it off and make time for me, his best friend.” Woliver tells his students that mental preparation is key to a successful performance. The singer must focus on delivering the message rather than being worried about the environment, he said. “Calvin’s a type of performer that gives 100 percent of himself,” Woliver said. “He’s delivering a message that, whether it’s for Obama or the 6-year-old child that happened to be holding his grandfather’s hand at the rally, it’s an equal opportunity of giving.” Griffin was chosen after university representatives involved in organizing the Obama rally contacted Karen Bell,

vice president of the arts initiative at OSU, and her publicity person, Victoria Elwood, contacted the music department to find someone to sing the national anthem. Woliver said Griffin was an obvious choice to sing for the president because of Griffin’s recent successes. Griffin was chosen as one of three winners in the District Metropolitan Opera auditions held in Cincinnati two days before Woliver asked him to sing the national anthem. The ultimate goal of the competition is to be an apprentice at The Metropolitan Opera in New York City. Griffin will perform at the regional audition in Chicago on Sunday. If selected, he will proceed to New York City as a semifinalist in the national auditions. “People who know opera know that that’s a big deal,” Garner said. “It’s a matter of PR for him … his audition will be seen by the top opera people in the country.” Griffin is already well-known in Columbus. “I’m a big fan of Calvin,” said Leo Welsh, the Columbus Blue Jackets anthem singer and a member of Opera Columbus. Welsh said Griffin is on the fast track to becoming one of the best bass-baritones in the country. “He has an incredible work ethic and no ego. That’s very rare in this business,” said Emily Holsclaw, Griffin’s girlfriend and a second-year master’s student in music and vocal performance. “He’s very

He just goes in to sing and offers music to people.” Griffin’s parents, Jane and Larry Griffin, who teach in the Worthington School District, heard him sing at the rally. Jane is a music teacher at Worthingway Middle School, and Larry is the high school choir director at Worthington Kilbourne. Griffin was in his father’s choir class throughout high school. “Since early elementary, he was always performing,” Larry said. “We all

Temporary greenhouses built to house surviving plants communications specialist for the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center. During the past six weeks, crews have ÿnished cleaning up debris on the campus. Much of their work involved cutting down trees and removing stumps, Espinoza said. Workers are replacing broken windows and doors, and ofÿcials are ready to begin major renovations on some buildings. Ofÿcials at the satellite campus are working with OSU’s Facilities Operations and Development department to contract architects for the renovations, Benÿeld said. He said it is uncertain whether the Agricultural Engineering Building will be renovated or if crews will demolish and rebuild it. He said the decision is up to the insurance company. The greenhouses that were destroyed will be demolished and rebuilt, Espinoza said.

Until then, surviving plants are housed in temporary greenhouses, said Steven Slack, associate vice president for Agricultural Administration and director of the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center, during the meeting last week. Plans for new projects in the Secrest Arboretum include planting bulbs and trees in the 102-year-old outdoor laboratory, Cochran said, but it’s uncertain whether the arboretum will be restored to its original design. The campus is still closed to the public, but Cochran said he hopes to have the arboretum open by Monday. Cochran had hoped the arboretum would be open earlier, but because of rain last week, the opening date was pushed back. Nearly two months after the storm, which spurred a series of tornadoes throughout the state, Cochran is still shocked. “I can’t believe it happened in our own backyard,” he said. “You read about tornados, you read about ° oods, but it never happens in your own place, in your own surroundings.”

library depositories, said she has heard the same complaints before. “We hear these concerns every day. Our depositories do have in them materials that aren’t frequently used, and in many cases they’re outdated,” Straley said. “They’re valuable for research but not for students who need the most current information.” Straley described the criticism as a “culture issue.” “What’s in books is our culture, our civilization. The idea that we may let that slip away is something that strikes to our very core, and when you start talking about these things, that’s what people hear,” Straley said. “They don’t necessarily hear the part that says we’re doing this deliberately. We’re making sure we retain copies in the state of Ohio.” At OSU, outdated books need to be moved to the depository to make way for new ones, said Larry Allen, program coordinator for university libraries. “We added 127,000 items to our collection last year,” Allen said. “We don’t want to stop buying new stuff.”

It’s “a sketchy area to begin with,” said Byron Broussard, a fourth-year in political science. He called it “the worst Kroger I’ve ever been to.” He, too, complained about the produce department and said that “the meat department is deplorable. I won’t buy meat from that

store unless it’s prepackaged and vacuumsealed.” Other students are OK with the store as it stands. “I love this store,” said Nick Johnson, a doctoral student studying musicology. “It’s right by my house.” Wilkin declined comment about how much the new Kroger’s will cost.

Meet the coaches

test coaches’ allegiances

Please recycle

Coaches with young children, such as Gary and assistant men’s hockey coach Steve Brent, said the early years can be the most difÿcult. After missing his son’s ÿrst steps, Gary doesn’t know what he’ll miss next. “The countdown right now is, when will he say his ÿrst words?” he said. But others say it doesn’t get any easier as children get older. Men’s tennis coach Ty Tucker has been training college athletes throughout his 14-year-old daughter’s life. “Do you feel guilty? Of course, because you’ll be gone on the weekends and miss a lot of things,” Tucker said. “As she gets older, it gets tougher.” Making a choice Most coaches said they had never missed a major competition with their teams to be at home. But sometimes, the unexpected tests their allegiance to their sports. Brent made that discovery as his hockey team was going into the third period on the road. “On the headset I got a call from our video person that said, ‘Hey, your wife is in labor,’” he said. “I rushed back to Columbus to be by my wife’s side.” Gary faced a similar dilemma on a weekend when he was supposed to travel to a competition with his athletes. A minor surgical procedure on his son took longer than expected. That day, his son won the tug-ofwar between team and family.

But the difÿcult choices don’t come without perks, coaches say. While Tucker has been coaching at OSU, his daughter “has had the opportunity to run around at the gymnastics center at Ohio State, to be able to take advantage of everything Ohio State has athletically and be able to see some things she would have never gotten to see,” he said. Miller said his sons “love going to the gym, even as young as 3 and 2. “While I’m spending time and working out one of the guys, they’re playing in the gym, so when I’m done I can see them.” Though Gary’s wife, Rita, said the con° ict is “frustrating on occasion,” she said there are advantages beyond state-of-the-art workout facilities that double as playgrounds. “What a cool way to grow up,” said Rita, a former track and ÿeld coach at Miami University. “They are around these over-achieving, intelligent, goal-oriented young people and that is their reference point.”

Ty Tucker

Robert Gary

Coping In the end, many coaches said ÿnding balance is a mental game. “When you’re spending time away from your family, what drives you to go to work and to do well at your job is that you’re working for your family,” Miller said. “I take that mindset … and that keeps me going.” Brent has a similar strategy. “The times that you’re away from each other, there’s not much you can do but communicate, let them know you’re thinking about them,” Brent said. “But the times you’re together, you’ve got to make the most of it.” Sometimes, though, all a coach can do is hope for the best. Percy “doesn’t have any teeth yet,” Gary said, “so I haven’t missed that.”

Collective embraces cultures Band incorporates music from around the world and changes its lineup at almost every show to keep things interesting Joseph Janko Lantern reporter janko.8@osu.edu

Columbus band Maza Blaska mixes its formula up at every show. The band features a constanty shifting lineup of performers playing music influenced by several cultures. Maza Blaska operates as a “collective” rather than a typical band. Although 10 musicians are listed as band members, not all perform at the band’s shows. Sam Corlett, a 24-year-old multi-intrumentalist and vocalist in the group, said the average concert features five or six band members, composed of “whoever can show up.” They often play their songs in different styles to accommodate the constant change. For example, listeners might hear a “reggae” version of one of the group’s songs that usually has a “rock” feel. Maza Blaska mixes Native American percussion with Eastern European melodies and a modern rock edge. Though the melodies are mostly Western, the instruments lend an Eastern feel. The band uses banjos, mandolins, glockenspiels and sitars to fuse “indie rock” and “world” music. The variety of band members mirrors the range of instruments. Corlett said many of Maza Blaska’s members play in other bands in Columbus. Corlett and Yoni Mizrachi, the 24-year-old guitarist and singer of Maza Blaska, jokingly said the founders had “tricked” many of the members into joining. They told their friends they had a non-existent concert scheduled and needed musicians to fill out the band as quickly as possible. “We just kept adding more because we have a lot of friends that are musicians,” Corlett said. “So it was just like, ‘Hey, why don’t you play with us?’” Mizrachi said the band avoids cluttering its sound by placing an emphasis on rhythm. Many of the members play percussive instruments, which bandmembers said leads to a more “danceable” sound. “I want to get people moving their feet and feeling good,” Mizrachi said. “We don’t really want to create any drama, we just want people to have fun, feel good, dance and do whatever.” The name “Maza Blaska” came from a list of Native American names Mizrachi found on the Internet. After picking a few names he liked, he sent them to Corlett, who ultimately chose the group’s name. Mizrachi wrote much of the group’s initial material while on a trip to Israel. He sent the ideas over the Internet to Corlett, who expanded them. During his trip, Mizrachi encountered a street

Pro Evolution Soccer 2011

musician playing folk music native to the area. Mizrachi took out his guitar and figured out the melody, which inspired future Maza Blaska ideas. “Coming in and trying to learn those songs, the chord structure and the melody lines are not very typical,” said Kyle Charles, the group’s 26-year-old bass player. “It actually took me a while to figure out the songs because (Mizrachi) plays some weird chords.” The group bases its lyrics and themes on stories, experiences and written tradition, and its upcoming record will be called “Story Teller.” Mizrachi said most of the original material came from his desire to describe his trip to Jerusalem, which is evident in tracks like “River Jordan.” The band has been recording its debut record on and off for a few months but has not set a release date. After discovering the band through MySpace, assistant professor Eddie Ashworth of the School of Media Arts and Studies at Ohio University invited

the group to record with him and students in music production. Ashworth mixied and engineered many of the albums by the band Sublime. After the album is finished, Mizrachi said he plans to use it to attract a record label. The band doesn’t intend to release the album on its own unless it can’t to find a label or a distributor. Though the group members are passionate about their music, they said their only concern is creating art. “I don’t think that any of us are expecting that we’re going to make any money any time soon from any musical thing we’re doing,” Corlett said. “That’s not because of a total lack of faith as much as we’re not worried about it.” The band is taking a short hiatus, but plans to begin playing concerts again in early December.

The Joseph Gordon-Levitt Re:Acting & Recording event scheduled to be at the Ohio Union at 7 p.m. Thursday has been canceled, along with the rest of Gordon-Levitt’s tour dates. Gordon-Levitt is an actor best known for roles such as Arthur in “Inception” (2010), Tom Hansen in “(500) Days of Summer” (2009) and Cameron James in “10 Things I Hate About You” (1999). Tickets to see the Ohio Union Activities Boardsponsored Gordon-Levitt event went on sale at 5 p.m. Oct. 18. The tickets were available until last week, when the event was canceled. Gordon-Levitt was supposed to come to Ohio State for a interactive discussion about his acting career and his website, hitRECord.org, said Daniel Walls, OUAB lectures chair, in an e-mail. Gordon-

Levitt started his website almost five years ago and it has grown into a professional production company. HitRECord.org serves as a place where anyone can gather and collaborate to create digital multimedia projects. Although Katie Krajny, OUAB adviser, said about half the tickets had been released OUAB didn’t expect upset GORDON -LE VITT students. Alexis Wang, a second-year in molecular genetics, said she and her friends got to the ticket release early to get in the front of the line. “I’ve always liked him as an actor,” Wang said. “It’s really upsetting that it’s canceled.” Wang said she heard rumors that the cancellation was because of to the death of Gordon-Levitt’s brother. Dan Gordon-Levitt died Oct. 4 at age 36

in Hollywood, Calif. of an alleged drug overdose, according to news outlets. OUAB did not mention his death. Krajny said the re-shooting of an undisclosed movie and personal reasons prompted GordonLevitt’s tour to be canceled. “The agent decided and Joseph decided that he needed to cancel the rest of his tour dates,” Krajny said. Gordon-Levitt has two roles in post-production movies: Adam in “Live with It” (2010) and Wilee in “Premium Rush” (2012), and a pre-production movie, “Looper” (2012). OUAB would not have paid Gordon-Levitt until after the show, so there was no financial loss.

Talent like Kanye’s always deserves a second chance ART S Columnist

Alex Antonetz Senior Lantern reporter antonetz.3@osu.edu

Holding a bottle of Kanye West-flavored “Haterade” in your hands? It might be about time to empty it out. More than a year after the infamous interruption at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, it’s time to give Kanye — one of pop music’s most talented artists — another Alex Antonetz chance. antonetz.3@osu.edu West is set to release his next studio album, “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy,” on Nov. 22. Since coming out of hiding after last year’s VMA incident, West has shown up on Twitter, released a new song to fans every week as part of his “Good Fridays” campaign and has even directed his own 35-minute Splinter Cell: Conviction short film “Runaway,” inspired (Xbox by the 360) public’s reactions to the VMA debacle. Lead and Gold: Gangs of the Wild West (PC) Based on the nine tracks featured in the “Runaway” film and the tracks he’sfor released, West’s upcoming album seems to be shaping up Music Everyone (Wii) nicely. In fact, what I’ve heard would lead me to believe “My Beautiful

6A

Dark Twisted Fantasy” might be West’s best album, topping his first studio effort, “The College Dropout.” And have you seen “Runaway?” It’s one of the most ambitious music video attempts pop music has seen, possibly even putting it in the same league as other long-form videos like “Thriller.” it might be a tad pretentious, the ambition with the project is surely to be commended, especially when considering it’s competing against the likes of the “Jersey Shore” version of Enrique Iglesias’ “I Like It” video. After all, you don’t see that kind of creativity and artistry with other pop acts. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying what West did to Taylor Swift was OK and he’s not a jerk. Heck, he’s even admitted to the latter. But now, with West resurfacing after saying public outcry to the VMA incident nearly drove him to suicide, it’s time to give West a fair chance at what he can serve up creatively. Just look at “Runaway.” The film is essentially a 35-minute, beautifully shot metaphor of the tale of the Phoenix, which in this case is West rising from the ashes to resurrect both his career and personal life. West has even gone so far as to say on Twitter that he’s trying to be nice, though the jury is still out on that one. This is a new Kanye West. And that’s exciting! Though a helping of arrogance remains, this change-up with West discovering a tinge of modesty is welcome after last year’s VMA meltdown. But more important for consumers, it offers a fresh spin on his music. And as consumers, we owe it to ourselves to give Kanye’s new output a fair chance.

sports Recruiting from 8A

Experts say

recruiting coverage is here to stay wasn’t much news to report throughout the year, college recruiting went largely unnoticed. That began to change in the mid-1990s, when major programs started hosting offseason football camps for prospective players. The camps gave schools the first chance to scout younger players throughout the year, leading to earlier scholarship offers and expanding the recruiting focus beyond National Signing Day. “It’s really a race to make an offer and get commitments to the best players,” said Steve Helwagen, managing editor of Bucknuts.com, an independent, recruitment-based website for OSU football. “It’s so competitive right now with all the colleges. Now colleges aren’t worried about making a mistake by offering a kid early. They know they have to beat the competition.” To control recruiting, the NCAA imposes restrictions on how coaches and schools can recruit. The organization limits the number of times a coach can call a prospect or evaluate the athlete in person. As a result, coaches must be careful about how they pursue recruits. “There are rules we have to evaluate recruits, and we’ve saved time to have our evaluations consist of a significant number here,” OSU assistant football coach Doc Tressel said of recruiting during the bye week. “It’s the first week of playoffs here. We’ll be at some of the playoff games and doing some things out on the recruiting trail.” But the biggest development to recruiting came with the advent of the Internet, which changed how scouting was conducted and reported. Until the late 1990s, recruiting news was spread through only a few print publications, many of which offered phone hot lines for updated information. Analysts covering the scene spent long nights traveling throughout their regions to scout players they learned about from other coaches. Kurelic, who retired from teaching and coaching high school basketball to cover recruiting in 1988, was one of only a handful of reporters who struggled to work in the fledgling industry. “I tried it for two years but I just broke even and didn’t make any money at all,” Kurelic said. “I can remember saying that I’d try it for one more year to see if I could make money. But by the third year, I did start making some money, so I continued with it.” The industry steadily became more profitable in the 1990s and its popularity rapidly escalated when the Internet gave rise to websites that sold subscriptions for access to game film, player rankings and updates, eventually phasing out most of the newspapers and hot lines. For the coaches, the Internet let them expand

their recruiting horizons, as they could observe more players without hectic travel or NCAA surveillance. The two largest websites to emerge were Rivals. com and Scout.com, which are in a constant tug-ofwar on every aspect of recruiting. “There’s not a lot of consistency across the board,” said Helwagen, who worked for Scout.com before going independent with Bucknuts.com. “They don’t agree on a whole lot. It’s a competition and a feeding frenzy.” But the discord between the sites hasn’t stunted the growth of the industry. In 2007, Yahoo! bought Rivals.com for $100 million, and Scout.com has more than 2 million subscribers. ESPN also draws a strong following to its recruiting coverage. Helwagen said one of the greatest attractions of recruiting is its optimism, which tends to hype the best players to almost mythical statures before they set foot on a college campus. “Generally, the stories are pretty positive, and it gives people reason to hope for the future,” Helwagen said. “There’s always a constant hope that the next Terrelle Pryor or Beanie Wells is right around the corner.” The lofty expectations fans have for players stem from their ratings, which vary across each site. Based on a five-star scale (in addition to several other rankings), players’ ratings are determined by their on-field productivity, their size and how they test at scouting combines. The college coaches also have input in the rankings, offering player assessments to recruiting services in exchange for information. But as Kurelic is quick to affirm, the ranking systems aren’t perfect and don’t account for intangibles such as desire, work ethic or even a player’s academic capacity. “Recruiting is an inexact science,” Kurelic said. “You’re always going to have some sleepers that make it and some kids that you’d think would be great that don’t make it.” But the flawed ranking systems don’t stop top recruits from going to extreme lengths when announcing their college destinations. Much has been said about the fanfare surrounding these decisions, from Pryor’s recruiting saga to Kevin Hart of Nevada, who somehow drew a throng of people to watch him make a bogus commitment in 2008. But to the players, the accolades they receive make the recruiting process a rewarding experience. “It’s nice to get all this attention,” Pryor told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review in 2007. “All the attention can be overwhelming, but I deserve all the attention because of all the hard work I’ve done.” Kurelic said “the hoopla surrounding National Signing Day is good for the recruiting industry,” but added, “sometimes I think it goes overboard.” Helwagen said the popularity of recruiting will only grow stronger as technology advances. “I don’t think it’s going anywhere,” Helwagen said. “I think it’s here to stay.”

Buckeyes lost a pair of ‘stars’ when Moeller, Bryant went down with injuries and Hines. Both players were recruited to OSU as undersized linebackers and were eventually converted to safeties. The star position lets the Buckeye defense effectively match up with opponents who use the spread offense. Should the opposing offense attempt a pass, the star has safety skills to drop back into coverage TYLER MOELLER with a receiver. If the offense runs the ball, OSU has a third linebacker on the ÿeld. OSU coach Jim Tressel said the Buckeyes’ defense is designed to stop teams that run either spread or traditional offenses. “You have to be ready to go against the whole gamut,” Tressel said. “That’s why we try to give them as much of that whole gamut as we can.” The star also tends to blitz more often than a traditional nickelback would, evidenced by Moeller’s blindside sack and subsequent forced fumble on

BEN AXELROD Lantern reporter axelrod.17@osu.edu When Ohio State’s Tyler Moeller tore his left pectoral muscle in the Buckeyes’ win over Illinois on Oct. 2, it was hard to tell exactly what OSU lost: a defensive back or linebacker? The truth is, the Buckeyes lost a combination of the two. Moeller played the “star” position — a hybrid defensive back/linebacker who lines up over the slot receiver as the Buckeyes’ nickelback, or ÿfth defensive back, when teams present three- or fourreceiver sets. “You’re called on to ÿll in on the run, be more physical and things like that, as other nickelbacks probably do a lot of covering,” said senior safety Jermale Hines, who started at the star position for OSU in 2008 and 2009. “A lot more blitzing and things like that, so you have to be tough.” The position is ideal for players like Moeller

Marshall quarterback Brian Anderson in OSU’s seasonopening win. With Moeller out for the season, the OSU coaching staff made true freshman Christian Bryant the ÿrst-string star until he was sidelined with a foot infection. Tressel said Bryant will miss another month. At 5-feet-9-inches and 178 JERMALE HINES pounds, Bryant is more of a traditional nickelback than either Moeller or Hines. However, his hard-hitting style and his high-school experience as safety make him a natural ÿt for the position. Hines said he welcomed the move back to the position he played for the previous two seasons. “I deÿnitely embrace it,” Hines said. “I’m willing to do anything for the team. No matter what my role is, I’m willing to do it.”

Hundreds of people gathered at the Buffalo Wild Wings in Springÿeld on July 30. But they weren’t at the sports bar to watch any games.

Even in the heart of Buckeye country, the fans at the bar were so caught up in the hoopla surrounding their hometown star that they didn’t seem to mind he had rejected OSU. But to many Buckeye fans outside the restaurant, the event was nothing to be celebrated. Disheartened recruiting buffs, many of whom had tracked DePriest since he was a freshman, ranted against coach Jim Tressel on Internet forums for failing to sign the stud prospect. Others accused DePriest of being excessively self-promoting. “People are very passionate about their college football teams, and recruiting is the lifeblood of a
