thelantern University fundraising struggles At halfway point of the ﬁscal year, OSU has raised 44 percent of its $300 million goal DAN MCKEEVER Oller Projects Reporter mckeever.16@osu.edu Ohio State’s bold fundraising goals have met an economy shrouded in uncertainty. OSU ofÿcials plan to raise $300 million during ÿscal year 2010 for its colleges, lower units and branch campuses. This goal includes money gathered from the two-and-a-half year, $100 million campaign to fund the Students First, Students Now program, and a $75 million campaign ending in 2013 to fund Project ONE, the $1 billion expansion of the OSU Medical Center. But college fundraisers across the country are struggling in a shaky economy, and OSU’s are no exception. Peter Weiler, OSU’s senior vice president for University Development, reported on OSU’s fundraising challenges to the Board of Trustees’ Development and Investment Committee last Thursday. The Students First, Students Now initiative, to which OSU President E. Gordon Gee donated his $20,053 raise in October, is ahead of schedule, having raised 46.5 percent of its $100 million goal through 40 percent of the fundraising period.

But fundraising on the $300 million goal, which Weiler described as “highly aggressive,” was behind through December. OSU raised almost $133 million, or 44.3 percent of the goal, through Dec. 31, the halfway point of the fundraising period. Under better economic circumstances, OSU would have reached about 55 percent of that goal, Weiler said. Although the fundraising effort gained some ground in January, December is a crucial month for fundraising, which tends to decline gradually until June, he said. Some of the 32 units that share the responsibility for the $300 million goal are faring better than others. The OSU Alumni Association, which received $1 million as part of a gift from anonymous donors to honor Archie Grifÿn, is already at almost 300 percent of its yearly goal of $414,000. OSU’s Newark campus, on the other hand, has tallied only 6 percent of its goal of nearly $1 million. The College of Nursing has raised slightly less than 15 percent of its goal of nearly $2.3 million. The Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity has raised only 12.2 percent of its $3 million target. Perhaps the most surprising laggard is the Moritz College of Law, whose alumni enter a relatively lucrative profession. The college has raised only 10

New building aims to boost OSU sciences MICHAEL TOBIN Lantern reporter tobin.61@osu.edu In 2014, Ohio State will open a sophisticated new chemistry building that administrators say will make the university’s science programs more competitive. The $126 million Chemical Biomolecular and Engineering and Chemistry building will replace a hodgepodge of old and in some cases dangerous science labs and classrooms. The chemical

engineering side of the building will be called Koffolt Lab. The Chemistry Department has not chosen a name for its side of the building yet. The new facility will “make recruiting easier at every level,” said Stuart Cooper, chair of the department of chemical and biomolecular engineering. “What we have now can be a disadvantage.” A modern building will attract graduate students, freshmen and faculty. Administrators hope to increase faculty from 18 to 22, he said. The building will include new laboratories for multiple sciences, instructional spaces and building

support, according to a Facilities Operations and Development report in November. The building project has been in the works since 2002, but will ÿnally be put into motion by June 2011 with the demolition of Boyd Lab, Johnston Lab, the Aviation building and Haskett Hall. The Chemical Biomolecular and Engineering Department has submitted campus proposals and feasibility reports since 2002, Cooper said. The

Chemical reaction mistaken for gas leak causes evacuation KAILEY LATHAM Lantern reporter latham.45@buckeyemail.osu.edu The lecture hall in Evans Lab was evacuated Monday morning after a graduate student mistakenly caused a foul-smelling chemical to leak into the building’s ventilation system, said John Herrington, the safety coordinator for Ohio State’s Department of Chemistry. Occupants of the building thought there was a gas leak because the chemical, t-butyl mercaptan, is what gas companies put into natural gas so that leaks can be detected. Natural gas is odorless.

Columbus Fire Department engines and rescue vehicles responded at about 1 p.m, said Bob Armstrong, director of Emergency Management. OSU Emergency Management and Environmental Safety also came to the scene. No injuries occurred and no damage was done to the building. Emergency services determined that there was no danger and classes continued as normal. “It’s a normal chemical reaction we did in our group. It leaked out into the air, but it’s non-toxic,” said Toby Sanan, a graduate student who is part of the lab group that works with the chemical in Evans. Mercaptan is heavier than air and it spreads fast, said Gerhard Raimann,

BOBBY GARTRELL Lantern reporter gartrell.7@osu.edu A team of Ohio State MBA students won a $50,000 prize at the 2010 Marketing Summit at Wake Forest University on Feb. 6. The contest, sponsored by IBM, saw OSU avenge its loss in the 2009 summit. The sevenmember group defeated a pool of teams from seven universities. Consisting of graduate students Vandana Agrawal, Seth Blatter, Michael Hrostoski, Jeremy

Jacobs, Ryan Kilpatrick, Eduard Lapteanu and Chad Stutz, the team was one of only eight schools selected from an applicant pool of 83 other universities throughout the world. They were lead by professor Marc Ankerman, a senior lecturer in management and human resources at OSU. For the contest, the teams were assigned to act as internal consultants for IBM and work with members of the company to develop a marketing plan that would create business for IBM in Dubai. As part of IBM’s “Smarter Planet Campaign,” the teams had to develop a model for their “Smarter Cities Initiative.” They received the case at 8 p.m. Thursday and

had to have the project ÿnalized by 7 a.m. Saturday, giving the team very little time to be deliberate about the project. “I only slept for 20 minutes on Friday night on the hardwood ° oor in our breakout room,” Hrostoski said. The team came up with a comprehensive marketing plan, which included several mock print ads and a 30-second commercial made by team member Chad Stutz. The judges told the team that having solid ÿnancial data separated the group from the competition.

Events celebrate black history TIARA NORMAN Lantern reporter norman.136@osu.edu The Multicultural Center kicked off Black History Month with several celebratory events last week. The 40th annual United Black World Month began Monday at Ohio State. This month-long celebration of African-American history includes lectures, art exhibits and other activities in honor of Black History Month. United Black World Month is the same as Black History Month, said Christa Porter, intercultural specialist at the Multicultural Center. “There is no difference — just a more inclusive and community-focused title,” Porter said. Every year, the Multicultural Center uses the theme that the original founders of Black History Month use for United Black World Month. This year’s theme is black economic empowerment. “The economy is certainly a hot topic now,” said Sandra Richardson, a third-year in African-American studies. “I think that the theme of economic empowerment is appropriate because that’s a topic on everyone’s minds.” The self-made millionaire and motivational speaker Chris Gardner came to campus to kick off United Black World Month Monday. Gardner, whose life and book inspired the movie “The Pursuit of Happyness,” spoke to students about his path from homelessness to ÿnancial success.

“I think it’s awesome that the university is recruiting these types of people to come here,” said Ronald Stokes, a ÿrst-year in sociology. “His story is an amazing one that anyone belonging to any race can learn from.” Students were also able to enjoy plays, lectures and panel discussions about African-American history the ÿrst week of United Black World Month. Events like these will be occurring on campus throughout the month of February. One highlight is a lecture that will teach students about the Nation of Islam, called “The African American Community and Islam.” “Black People, Black Love” will also occur this month, which is an event that examines romantic love within the black community. There will also be events held to help students improve their personal lives. There will be a ÿnancial management seminar, an event to promote physical ÿtness and a panel discussing social identity. Many prominent speakers will also be coming to campus in honor of United Black World Month. World-renowned activist and public speaker Angela Davis will be the featured speaker for the month and will be coming to campus Feb. 11. She will be speaking at the Tom W. Davis Special Events Gym in the RPAC at 7:30 p.m. Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Maya Angelou will also be coming to Ohio State Feb. 28. “An Evening with Maya Angelou” will take place in Mershon Auditorium at 6 p.m.

There is some Buckeye representation in Hollywood this week. Bosa Mora, 22, of Columbus, advanced past the audition round of Fox’s “American Idol” this season. Mora’s audition allowed him to join the elite group — among thousands who auditioned — to come together in Hollywood with the hopes of advancing further in the singing competition. “I have always had a deep faith that great things will come my way,” Mora said. “It’s not going to be given to me though; I have to earn it.” Mora was inspired to try out for the show by a close friend of his. His goal was simply to learn more about the music industry through the audition process. He was not expecting to make it through to the next round. “There is really no way you can know what someone will think about you,” Mora said. “The only thing you can do is be conÿdent in what you do and hope they see something there.” The American Idol judges did, with three of the four voting to send him forward. Judge Simon Cowell was the lone dissent. Deeply moved and humbled by the audition experience, Mora said it has been a roller coaster ride ever since. “The only thing consistent is me waking up, checking my e-mail, sending thank you notes to fans and supporters and waiting to see what the day brings,” Mora said. “When there isn’t a performance, studio session or interview, I am busy writing music and using the time that I have off from a day job to plan and advance my career.” Mora has been singing for years, but started to take it seriously in high school. His favorite music to perform is his own. “I gigged on my own until I got a band in college,” he said. “I have played in bars, clubs, restaurants, subways, streets, farmers’ markets — you name it.” Singing isn’t all that he does though. Mora said he likes

to play basketball, watch movies, read books about Martin Luther King Jr. and Winston Churchill and watch sports. “I love to have fun and hang out,” Mora said. “I’m fresh out of college, so there is a part of me which still doesn’t want to grow up.” Whenever he gets a chance, Mora likes to hang out with his family. He is the ÿfth of eight children. His parents are from Nigeria. Their college educations BOSA MORA brought them to Columbus. Mora attended Berklee College of Music in Boston, but that hasn’t stopped him from getting part of the Ohio State experience. He describes himself as a proud Buckeye fan and has visited campus many times. “My best friend and my older brother went to school there and they would show me college life whenever I was home on break,” Mora said. “I had a blast hanging out with them and going to the bars and hangouts on campus.” Having grown up in Ohio, he said his Hollywood experience has been exciting because he had never been there before. “I arrived and saw palm trees and felt the warm weather and I could only think of being in the snow and cold only hours before,” Mora said. What people would ÿnd most surprising about “American Idol” is that there are many auditions before a contestant gets to the head judges, Mora said. “All the people you think are good had to jump as many hoops as the contestants people would say are bad,” he said. “It’s reality TV, so you can’t ignore the power of ratings.” Mora said he wants to share his own original music with the world. “I hope for a happy and simple life but my ambition leads me to hope to make a big impact on the world through music and my other talents,” Mora said. The start of “American Idol” Hollywood Week will air at 8 p.m. tonight on Fox.

percent of its roughly $8.7 million goal. Weiler said he is not worried about units that are behind on their fundraising goals because the numbers are only a snapshot of a long process. A unit that is at 20 percent of its goal this year might be at 120 percent next year, he said. Weiler also said he is conÿdent in OSU’s ability to raise the $75 million needed to help ÿnance Project ONE, which is also counting on hospital revenues and university bond issues in lieu of state money. The project has about $825 million worth of construction remaining, said Bill Shkurti, senior vice president for Business and Finance, in a report to the board Friday. The $75 million goal represents the biggest fundraising initiative that OSU has undertaken for a capital project, Weiler said in an interview with The Lantern. In order to hit the $75 million mark, OSU needs a big gift, he said. “We’re not going to get there without a 10, 20 million dollarplus gift, and in this economy that’s hard to do,” he said. Economic statistics from 2009 illustrate that difÿculty. Private donations to U.S. colleges plunged in 2009, according to a survey cited in a Feb. 3 article in the Chronicle of Higher Education. Decreased alumni participation and smaller gift sizes added up to a $3.75 billion drop in donations to colleges, representing a fall of nearly 12 percent from 2008, the sharpest decline in the survey’s 50-year history, according to the article. Despite the difÿcult ÿnancial environment, “the University has every expectation the fund raising goal will be met,” Shkurti said in an e-mail. “Everyone is working very hard to make sure that is the case. In the event it is not, the Medical Center will need to ÿnd the money elsewhere within its own budget or scale back the project proportionally.” The Development and Investment Committee discussed OSU’s strategy for meeting the goal Thursday.

Chemistry Department had also submitted a proposal for a new building to Facilities Operations and Development and conducted a feasibility study and report about renovating Evans Lab. University ofÿcials decided that the best option was to construct a building for both departments. “We’ve been putting in requests and getting further and further along in the queue,” Cooper said. They also put in requests through the college in 2004, 2006 and 2008, he added. “When they tore Lord Hall down, we were showing potential donors, ‘This is where we are going to be,’” Cooper said. Administrators changed their mind on the building location after ofÿcials released a master plan study about a long-term vision for the university, he added. In 2007, it was decided that the best preliminary site for the new science building was between Woodruff and 19th avenues, Cooper said. This was based on the location of the building and the “bad shape” of the buildings being torn down. The site of Haskett Hall was also included in the new plan, which increased the overall space for the new building. Moving the building’s location frees up the Lord Hall site to be used as an English or arts building, Cooper said. The building’s location furthers the university’s academic plan. “The current location aligns with the principals from the Academic Facilities Plan and the One University Framework by reducing the university’s deferred maintenances,” said project manager Faye Bodyke, in an e-mail. The building “creates alignment with [the] sciences and engineering neighborhood.”

the possibility of soliciting corporate donations, not just donations from individuals. Trustee W.G. “Jerry” Jurgensen, who is a director of Nationwide Children’s Hospital, also said that raising money for the Medical Center expansion can be an easier task than fundraising for other academic goals, because medicine’s beneÿts are easily demonstrated to donors. “I don’t mean to sound crass, but saving lives sells,” he said. With more than 464,000 living alumni, OSU has a large audience to which it can sell its fundraising goals. Their willingness to give will also depend on their expectations of OSU’s ability to manage money in a shaky economy. As ÿnancial markets improve, donors are becoming less hesitant, according to the Chronicle of Higher Education article. A small minority of donors surveyed by OSU, however, was unhappy with the performance of OSU’s long-term investment pool, which includes the school’s endowment. In October, OSU mailed a satisfaction survey to almost

3,000 donor households. Of the 129 who responded, 6 percent “expressed frustration with [the] economy and investment performance and said we need to tell the good with the bad,” according to the University Development report delivered by Weiler to the board’s Development and Investment Committee. “I wasn’t satisÿed with the returns last year either,” said Jonathan Hook, OSU’s chief investment ofÿcer, in an interview with The Lantern. Hook, who was hired shortly before the market crash of fall 2008, said there was little that his ofÿce could do initially because “the drop occurred as I was walking in the door … it felt like it was in freefall for about 90 days.” The long-term investment pool lost almost a quarter of its market value in ÿscal year 2009, dropping to $1.66 billion. The fund has since climbed back to almost $1.9 billion. “If I had been one of the donors at that point,” Hook said, “I might not have been happy either.”

LIBRA Sept. 23–Oct. 22 Today is a 7 -- Work closely with a female associate to bring fresh energy to a dull project. A dismal beginning turns into steady progress. Mull over discrepancies. SCORPIO Oct. 23 – Nov. 21 Today is a 6 -- A long-distance associate or customer shakes everything up. This person doesn’t want to do it your way. Explain the logic behind your methodology. SAGITTARIUS Nov. 22 – Dec. 21 Today is a 6 -- Throw yourself into creative transformation. Your life could change in a big way, or you may simply change your mind about an issue that’s been nagging you. CAPRICORN Dec. 22 – Jan. 19 Today is an 8 -- You work hard all day, and you accomplish more than you thought possible. Drop into a comfy chair and let someone else serve you supper. AQUARIUS Jan. 20 – Feb. 18 Today is an 8 -- Build like you want it to last. A solid foundation carries you forward better than a quick fix. Think in decades. Imagine golden success. PISCES Feb. 19 – March 20 Today is an 8 -- Meet with your team and a visitor. Their consensus illuminates where to tighten up logic, and is only possible because you’ve anticipated the objections.

sports Reds infield could be major strength

Lineup from 8A

micHael dUcHeSne Lantern reporter duchesne.2@osu.edu

for ﬁrst postseason berth in 15 years

It’s difficult for the fans of a tradition-rich franchise like the Cincinnati Reds to accept their role as a little fish in the big sea of Major League Baseball. Due to the financial limitations of small-market teams under the current MLB system, which does not feature a salary cap, Reds fans enter each season knowing that they’ve started at a disadvantage. When competing with deep-pocket teams like the Yankees, Mets and Red Sox each year, Reds management has to be creative to be successful under the constraints placed upon them by their economic reality. However, the average Reds fan doesn’t want to hear that. In a city that hasn’t seen a World Series title since 1990, they just want results. Walt Jocketty, Reds general manager and president of baseball operations, has taken a big step towards assuaging those concerns with the signing of shortstop Orlando Cabrera to shore up the middle of the infield. “We are very excited. We talked about trying to improve at shortstop but didn’t think we’d be able to do it,” Jocketty said. “Acquiring a player of his ability and stature, that when you look at his career and the winning clubs he’s been on, he’s a winner.” The Reds freed up the money for Cabrera by trading center fielder Willy Taveras and infielder Adam Rosales to the Oakland Athletics for utility-infielder Aaron Miles. He is slated to make about $2 million this season with a $4 million mutual option for 2011. Cabrera spoke about being the newest addition to an already solid infield. “Defensively, I think we have a great infield,” Cabrera said. “We know we’ve got guys who can catch the ball.” That’s an understatement. The addition of Cabrera brings the total of Gold

the reds hope to avoid defensive miscues in 2010. Glove awards for the Reds’ infield to 10 — seven for third baseman Scott Rolen, two for Cabrera and one for second baseman Brandon Phillips. Cabrera also brings a more-than-capable bat. Last season, he hit .284 with nine home runs and 77 RBI for Oakland and the Minnesota Twins. He is a career .275 hitter. He will add to the nexus of veteran players like Rolen and Phillips to complement younger, budding stars like first baseman Joey Votto and right fielder Jay Bruce. “They have a great group of guys,” Cabrera said of his new teammates. “With Rolen, Phillips and the pitching staff, I think we’ve got a great chance this year if we stay healthy.” Initial reports indicate he will hit from the No. 2 spot in the batting order, an area of need in seasons past. Along with his glove and stick, Cabrera also appears to bring a sense of humor and knowledge of other Cincinnati sports figures to town with him. “I’m going to do everything I can,” Cabrera said. “Even if I have to change my name to Uno Ocho.”

schools together in the big tournament reserves the NIT for smaller schools that simply can’t compete with the big dogs. Sure, the expansion will create obvious underdogs, but it’s the underdogs that add to the “madness” that is March Madness. Without them, there wouldn’t be Cinderella stories. To the powerhouses of the NCAA, there’s no reason to shy away from the expansion. The

competition will be nearly the same. If anything, those powerhouses will be protected from big upsets by a first or second round bye. In the event that the Big Ten expands as well, Ohio State has one more competitor in the race for the Big Ten title. For the growing sport and the growing conference, the expansion is inevitable.

Reds searching

Position

Baker will fill his lineup card everyday hoping to get increased production from his young players. First baseman Joey Votto and second baseman Brandon Phillips are entrenched in the three and four spots, while third baseman Scott Rolen will likely bat fifth. Baker would be wise to utilize center fielder Stubbs’ speed and Cabrera’s contact skills at the top of the lineup. The Reds have not had a legitimate table-setter since Barry Larkin, and Stubbs’ blazing speed and bunt skills have the potential to make some noise in the leadoff spot. The biggest question mark in the Reds’ line-up surrounds Bruce. After bursting onto the big league scene in 2008, the right fielder suffered a sophomore slump in 2009, batting .223 with 22 home runs and 58 RBIs. However, there appears to be a light at the end of the tunnel for Bruce. He batted .326 over his last 18 games, in part due to a stance adjustment following a stint on the disabled list. The Reds’ clear strength is their pitching staff, specifically the bullpen. Closer Francisco Cordero anchors a bullpen that ranked near the top of the NL. Cordero is joined by flame-throwing right-hander Nick Masset and screw-ball lefty Daniel Ray Herrera. The first four spots in the Reds starting rotation appear to be set in stone with Bronson Arroyo, Johnny Cueto, Aaron Harang and Homer Bailey,

Extra teams

would dilute the tournament’s competition Madness had grown to 40. By 1985, the tournament had ballooned to 64 teams. Currently, team No. 65 is determined by the “play-in” game or what I like to call the “lose-lose” game, since the winner gets to face the No. 1 overall seed and the loser essentially got invited to the Big Dance only to get turned away at the door. Even adding a few more play-in games is an insult to the teams that win their conference tournament only to find out they’re stuck on the outside looking in on the tournament. The funny thing about tournament expansion is it’s not really about the money. Sure, the NCAA has an 11-year, $6 billion contract with CBS, but the

There is so much great basketball to be played in the month of February and even in early March.” A possible solution to Matta’s problem would be an increase in

while the fifth spot is up for grabs between a cast of characters including Matt Maloney and Micah Owings. The Reds appear to be heading in the right direction. For the most part, their young stars have taken their major league lumps. They have proven veterans looking to rebound from injury-plagued seasons. Jocketty is an aggressive GM with a track record of success. However, the fact remains the Reds have not been to the playoffs since 1995. Come August, if the Reds can stay healthy and get production from all 25 guys on the roster, they just may be able to keep Cincinnati fans focused on a pennant race instead of Bengals training camp.

men’s tournament is the only NCAA championship tournament that doesn’t get to keep the profits. Instead, the revenue is divvied up between the participating schools and conferences. Adding more schools means spreading the wealth. Proponents of tournament expansion want the majority of the added slots to go to teams that won their conference’s regular season championship in order to put increased value on the regular season. Thus, the “little guys” would not be seeing much of the revenue and in effect the rich get richer, as the major conferences would swoop in for more bids. Any way you look at it, expanding the tournament causes problems for everyone. Expansion would render the NIT irrelevant and cause students to miss more class time. Schools would have to dish out more money to cover team expenses. And most of all, the quality of the basketball would suffer.

high-profile, out-of-conference matchups, a change that he said would be rather easy. “[A larger tournament] allows you to be a little more risky in your non-conference schedule,” he said. “We’ve [played] Tennessee, we’ve done Florida and we’ve done LSU, but you can get out and do those things a little bit better and know that you’re going to be rewarded.” Even given his concern, Matta was clear that he felt an expanded tournament would be in the best interest of college basketball. There are some, like OSU junior David Lighty, who see the situation a little differently. Lighty doesn’t see a need for a change, but unlike his coach who seemed concerned about bettering the entire sport, his opinion was based on more selfish reasoning. “I like it how it is,” Lighty said. “As long as we’re in it.”

Buckeyes’ Matta in favor of tournament expansion growth spurt

nick o tte Lantern reporter otte.28@osu.edu You can never have too much of a good thing. Just ask the NCAA. Although the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament is one of the more popular sporting events in the country, coaches, school presidents and athletic directors from around the nation met last week to discuss a possible change. The discussions focused on a potential increase of the tournament from 65 to as many as 96 teams. A final decision was not made, nor is it expected to be anytime soon. The possible expansion has received mixed reviews throughout the country, but Ohio State coach Thad Matta said he loves the idea. “I think it would be excellent, I really do,” Matta said. “I think that you look at what used to be 16 [teams] and then I think they took it to 24 then to 32, 48 and 64. I think that that would be a great thing.” Some speculate that the longer list of tournament invitees would give teams from mid-major conferences a better chance to play in the postseason. It is possible that the extra round could serve as a play-in round for smaller schools that would otherwise be denied the opportunity. Others, however, suggest that the extra round would be filled with more teams from the power conferences, such as the Big Ten. It is thought that teams that finish at or near .500 in their conference could get the nod over the smaller schools to fill the additional spots.

The NCAA Tournament has changed plenty throughout the years, starting as an eight-team competition and growing to 65 teams and counting.

Matta made it very clear which side of the argument he supports. “I’d say the Big Ten,” Matta said when asked whether he’d like to see teams from his own conference or mid-major conferences make the tournament. “I know this [conference] is hard. I know what it takes to go through a stretch like we do of 18 Big Ten games.” One concern Matta did express with the expansion was a potential decreased interest in the regular

The NCAA basketball tournament should expand to 96 teams. Although it’s only in the discussion phase, the possible expansion from the traditional 65-team tournament to either 68 or 96 teams has its advantages. However, if the NCAA is going to complicate things, why bother with 68 teams? Go straight to 96. There are 347 Division I teams, only 18 percent of which receive a bid to the NCAA Tournament. The expansion would allow for 28 percent of teams to receive bids, and between both the NCAA and NIT tournaments, 37 percent would receive bids. I understand the prestige that comes with a bid, but why not share that honor with more players? To the majority of players who don’t continue their career into the NBA, this is the highest honor they will receive. The expansion doesn’t undermine the tournament’s exclusivity because it will still exclude more than half of the teams. It would still place an emphasis on the regular season as well. The pressure during the regular season has room to intensify when an NCAA bid is on the line. Conference champions will be rewarded with automatic bids as usual. Then there are teams who are consistently offered a bid but, because of a mediocre season, they become a team on the bubble. A perfect example is Ohio State. The Buckeyes didn’t make it to the 2008 NCAA tournament but received a No. 1 seed in the NIT tournament. If you look at the recent NIT champions, they are almost always a powerhouse school. In the last 22 years, only twice has a team from a mid-major conference won the NIT. The expansion would ensure

Official reports are out that the NCAA has convened with head men from conferences and university athletic departments to determine whether the NCAA Men’s Division I Basketball Championship, otherwise known as the best event in sports, should be expanded. Again. Shame on them. If someone could convince me that expanding the tournament to 68 or even 96 teams wouldn’t dilute the playing field, I’d gladly go along with the concept. But the notion of increasing the field to 96 is pure poppycock. I’d argue the field may already be too large, but the present size of the tournament is perfect for the right amount of upsets. Sure, George Mason’s run to the Final Four in 2006 was mesmerizing, but did the Patriots honestly deserve to win the National Championship? I think not. Furthermore, despite the successes of teams such as George Mason and Gonzaga in years past, statistics show there are a low number of upsets. Since the tournament swelled to 64 teams in 1985, a No. 1 has never lost to a No. 16. A No. 4 beats a No. 13 seed 79 percent of the time. Despite the belief that a No. 12 beats a No. 5 each year, it has only happened in 34 percent of the games. Judging at how big the tournament has become in terms of size of the field and the arenas that host the Final Four, it’s amazing to think about how far the tournament has come. In the tournament’s first year in 1939, the field had eight teams. Forty years later, when Larry Bird and Magic Johnson were dazzling fans, March

Offseason additions have Cincy buzzing about Reds grant freking Lantern reporter freking.4@osu.edu Traditionally, a Cincinnati Reds offseason includes the signing of an overpriced free agent, i.e. Eric Milton or Willy Taveras, and misplaced hope for the upcoming season. Furthermore, the men of the Queen City usually attempt to fill major holes in their roster by acquiring “has-beens” and hoping that these players miraculously have career years. This offseason has been a bit different, and the upcoming season may merit a hint of optimism. The last major acquisition the Reds have made in recent memory was the Ken Griffey Jr. trade after the 1999 season. When rumors began to float around that the Reds were in the Aroldis Chapman sweepstakes, no one gave them a chance to sign the 21-year-old, left-handed Cuban and free agent pitcher armed with a 100 mph fastball. Pundits predicted Chapman would sign with one of the big-market teams such as the Yankees, Red Sox, Mets or Phillies. However, the Reds ended up on top by giving Chapman a six-year, $30.25 million contract on Jan. 12. Clearly, the Reds are taking a huge gamble. Chapman is a classic example of a pitcher with a big, live arm, but one who is also dogged by control issues. In 327 career innings for Holguin, his Cuban team, Chapman struck out 365 batters but walked 203. Coming into the offseason, the Reds had a gaping hole at shortstop. As the winter months wore on, popular opinion was that the Reds were going to spring training with Paul Janish, a slick-fielding but offensivelychallenged shortstop, as the starter. Then, way out of left field, the Reds signed veteran shortstop

Orlando Cabrera to a $3.02 million, one-year contract. The 35-year-old Cabrera has lost a step or two defensively, but is a significant upgrade offensively over Janish. Also, by trading outfielder Willy Taveras, who was due $4 million next year, to Oakland along with infielder Adam Rosales, the Reds opened up enough money to sign Cabrera. The last objective on the Reds’ offseason list would be bringing back outfielder Jonny Gomes. As a platoon player last year, Gomes hit 20 home runs in 281 at-bats and brought much-needed right-handed power to the lineup. Re-signing Gomes would also add experience to a young outfield that includes Chris Dickerson, Drew Stubbs and Jay Bruce. Without a doubt, the 2010 season is a make or break year for manager Dusty Baker. The Cincinnati Reds manager enters the last year of his contract having gone 74-88 and 78-84 in his first two seasons. Considering Baker was hired by General Manager Walt Jocketty’s predecessor Wayne Krivsky, it’s hard to see Baker returning if Cincinnati has another disappointing season. In Baker’s first two seasons, he has had a significantly different roster to manage each year. In 2008, the Reds still had sluggers Ken Griffey Jr. and Adam Dunn, whose personalities dominated the clubhouse. In 2009, the Reds were an extremely young team led by Joey Votto and Brandon Phillips. However, the offensive problems that have plagued the Reds for much of the past decade still ring true today. Their mantra a few years ago was to rely on the home run ball to win games. Last year, with a precocious but young ball club, the team relied on small ball. Yet, they ranked No. 11 in the National League in runs scored and No. 15 in batting average. Since the Reds did not make a big trade to acquire a power bat,
