Facebook groups have ‘vested’ interest in supporting Tressel MIcHAel PeRIA TT Lantern reporter periatt.1@osu.edu Amid the controversy surrounding Jim Tressel and the allegations of his NCAA violation, many Ohio State fans from across the country have pledged their support for Tressel and his signature sweater vest via Facebook.

Two separate events have spread through the Ohio State Facebook community. “Support Tressel: Wear your sweater vests for Jim Tressel!” and “Support Tressel: In the vest we trust” have garnered resounding support from the Buckeye faithful.

Tressel received a series of e-mails starting in April from former Buckeye football player and lawyer, Christopher T.

The Cold War Kids’ lead singer and guitarist talks about the new album and its upcoming show at The LC.

Cicero, detailing possible NCAA violations his players committed. Tressel, who told Cicero he would look into the matter, failed to report the possible violations and has been fined $250,000 and suspended for the first two games of the regular season.

The NCAA has yet to act on the matter, but could expand on these sanctions.

Both events called for a showing of Buckeye pride by wearing OSU apparel in the days following the scandal, but the “Wear your sweater vests” event doesn’t stop there. The event is scheduled for the date of OSU’s annual Spring Game as another example of support.

Zita Spoeneman, a second-year in sports and leisure studies, created the “Wear your sweater vests” page on Tuesday afternoon before the press conference.

After one of the strongest earthquakes in the last century struck off the coast of Japan Friday, much of the nation was left decimated, as death counts continue to rise and the threat of a nuclear meltdown looms.

The official death toll stands at 1,700, but one senior police official in Minamisanriku, said the toll would “certainly be more than 10,000.”

Ohio State has heard either directly or indirectly through their families from all 13 students studying in Japan, said Grace Johnson, study abroad director.

Melanie Beaudette, a Ph.D. candidate in women’s studies, said her brother Joey, 25, contacted them after the initial earthquake on Friday, but she has yet to hear from him since the tsunami struck.

“The whole situation is basically horrifying,” Beaudette said. “It’s very hard on everyone in the family, especially because we feel so far away and so hopeless.”

The Japanese government has also declared a state of emergency at the Fukushima Daini nuclear power plant, according to the International Atomic Energy Agency. A radiation leak at the plant — located about 60 miles from Sendai, the closest city to the earthquake’s epicenter — had forced the evacuation of nearly 200,000 people from the surrounding 12-mile radius.

Officials narrowly escaped disaster there, as power failure halted the

Ohio State’s largest recorded donation, statehouse protests and Tattoo-gate headlined Winter Quarter.

OSU students complained about braving the slush and snow, while other students decided to stay inside and hibernate. If students chose the latter, or didn’t want to take their hands out of their warm pockets to pick up a newspaper, they missed some exciting events: OSU, Wexner announce $100M donation Leslie Wexner and the Limited Brands Foundation announced a donation of $100 million to OSU on Feb. 16. This donation was the largest-recorded philanthropic gift in OSU history.

During the announcement, Wexner spoke about how much the university

meant to him as an alumnus, and said “But for Ohio State” he wouldn’t be where he is today. OSU students have displayed the phrase throughout campus and even on T-shirts, showing their gratitude to Wexner.

“The way I think about it, it probably began about 35 years ago,” Wexner said.

“But for Ohio State, I wouldn’t have gone to college. It was an important institution in my life.”

Wexner is the chairman and CEO of Limited Brands Inc., a 1959 OSU alumnus and a Board of Trustees chair for OSU. Shelly Hoffman, assistant vice president for media relations, said Wexner’s gift will be dispersed across a nine-year period. The donation is scheduled to be completed in 2029, with $20 million being donated this year.

Hoffman said $65 million of the total $100 million is a personal gift from Wexner and his wife, Abigail. The remaining $35 million is a gift from the Limited Brands Foundation to the university.

Suspected robber flees High Street bank, but not before showing his face Valentine’s Day, a day of love, was thrown a twist this year with a robbery of Huntington Bank at 1928 N. High Street.

The crime was the second on-campus bank robbery in less than six months, with the U.S. Bank robbery in the Ohio Union in October.

Not only was the robber’s timing off, but he also did something else most robbers avoid — he removed his hood during the robbery.

Because of his error, he was dubbed the “wrong-order robber,” and nabbed a day later. He was identified as Patrick D. Kelley and charged for aggravated robbery.

Kasich, Ohio must make difficult decisions Controversy erupted in the Ohio Statehouse as Senate Bill 5 was pushed through the Senate.

Hundreds of protesters voiced their strong opposition to the bill, which changes Ohio’s collective bargaining law for public employees, including teachers, police officers and firefighters. In the original version, SB 5 banned collective bargaining. After the few days of protesting, Kasich and Senate Republicans agreed to amend it. The bill now permits union negotiations for wages, hours and working conditions, but it still bans collective bargaining for benefits.

SB 5 also prohibits public employees from going on strike. Protesters flooded the Ohio Statehouse during Kasich’s State of the State address on March 8.

The bill has the potential to save the state $1.3 billion by cutting pay increases for public workers and requiring them to pay more for health insurance.

The bill passed in Ohio Senate by one vote, and the House of Representatives is considering it now.

Fire causes estimated $50,000 of damages Fire broke out in Campus View Village Apartments in early February on OSU’s Newark campus. The fire consumed two apartments and caused significant damage in each after a cooking accident in one of the apartments.

Chase Collier, an undecided first-year at OSU Newark, said the fire originated in his apartment. Newark Fire Department Assistant Chief Bill Spurgeon said a stove was to blame for the fire.

Collier was away on a snowboarding trip when he received news of his apartment.

American Red Cross of Licking County provided $110 to each student to purchase essentials and allowed all the homeless students to stay in a hotel after keeping them in a gym for three or four hours.

The fire removed 40 students from their apartments and of those 40, 26 spent the night in a hotel. Collier said damage will displace 14 total students for a while.

Ben Stevens, a first-year in fashion retail, said he lost almost everything in his apartment because of the flames. He said everyone in the complex evacuated even before firefighters arrived.

Spurgeon estimated damages at about $50,000. The complex was uninhabitable and officials were unsure when or if the damaged apartments would be livable, Spurgeon said.

Thousands gather on the Statehouse lawn to oppose Senate Bill 5 in Columbus on March 1.

Vest undressed: Tressel suspended, fined OSU football coach Jim Tressel was suspended for the first two games of the 2011 season because of violations of an NCAA rule, when he failed to report information involving two football players.

Tressel is also facing a $250,000 fine, a public reprimand and apology and attendance at a compliance seminar as part of OSU’s selfreport to the NCAA. The report was submitted on March 8.

Athletic director Gene Smith, Tressel and President E. Gordon Gee addressed the media on March 8, when the punishments were announced.

An unnamed attorney, later identified as Christopher T. Cicero, e-mailed Tressel on April 2, 2010.

Cicero, a former OSU walk-on linebacker, informed Tressel that Edward Rife, the owner of Fine Line Ink Tattoos in Columbus, was receiving OSU football memorabilia in exchange for discounted tattoo services.

In the e-mail, Cicero said the “federal government raided (Rife’s) house” on April 1, (2010), seizing $70,000 and “a lot of Ohio State memorabilia.”

Tressel had responded saying he would take care of the issue right away.

The NCAA will conduct an investigation and can add to Tressel’s punishment.

Tressel from 1A

Group creator contrasts Tressel with Kiffin, Carroll “When I created it, I kind of had the thought in mind that he was going to be fired, so I kind of wanted to create it to get a support group out there for him,” Spoeneman said. “But when it became clear he was not going to be fired and just had the suspension, I figured we should just let it stick around and show him that we still support him. We still love him.”

People took notice. Spoeneman’s group has more than 5,000 attendees and the “In the vest we trust” group has more than 11,000.

While the groups are supportive of Tressel, they both explicitly acknowledge that he made a mistake. The pages’ information makes it clear that they are not endorsing Tressel’s violation of NCAA rules, but in the words of the “Wear your sweater vests” event’s information, the group is “supporting (Tressel) as a person, and a human being.”

Not everyone has the same view. Tony DelMonte, a fourth-year in consumer and family financial services, said while he still supports Tressel, he will never look at him the same way.

“I thought he was a follow-the-book coach who only made a few minor violations here and there,” DelMonte said. “Now I see that he will do almost anything to win.”

Others, however, have been a little more caustic.

A few people have posted remarks calling Tressel a cheater and making jokes about the situation.

However, Gabe Henschen, a second-year in materials science engineering and creator of the “In the vest we trust” group, said he noticed something else. While at first, Henschen tried to delete negative remarks, he eventually noticed that OSU community members started policing the page themselves and coming to Tressel’s aid.

“As it got to grow larger and larger it turns out that the community would respond to the criticism,” Henschen said. “The positive comments are through the roof.”

But the people posting on Facebook aren’t the only ones who seem to be taking shots at Tressel and the program as a whole. The national perception of the recent violations has led to a lot of media backlash.

“The media is putting out a lot of negative speculation and with that comes a lot of negative comments,” Henschen said.

But the Facebook groups are trying to send those people a message. “(The page) is to show them that even though he did make a mistake, you know, we’re not just going to throw (Tressel) under the bus and be like ‘forget you.’” Spoeneman said.

Many OSU students will stand by their coach through this admittedly dark time for the program.

“He’s going to take the consequences and stick with it, which says a lot about the person,” Henschen said. “Coaches like Lane Kiffin and Pete Carroll have skipped out on what could have happened to them. I’m proud that he’s standing in the line of fire and standing up for his decision.”

Japan from 1A

Plant built near earthquake-prone zone plant’s cooling system, posing the threat of a nuclear meltdown.

In a process described as a “Hail Mary,” officials flooded the reactor with sea water, which cooled the core and prevented a total meltdown. A meltdown threatens widespread radiation release when the reactor’s core fails.

Japanese media have reported similar problems at three other nuclear plants in the area, two of which experienced partial meltdowns. The government said radiation leakage at the plants had likely exposed 170 people.

John Carney, whose grandson attends OSU, was the vice president of property engineering at the American Nuclear Insurers, and visited the Fukushima plant around 1986 to inspect it.

“The location of this particular plant was near an earthquakeprone zone, so naturally this was a topic that was on my mind,” Carney said. “I asked them to present to me their design basis, and their approach to protect against an accident.”

Carney said those plans took into account the plant’s location on a major fault line.

“When they were showing me the anchoring system for the buildings and the piping systems,

Tsunami and 9.0-magnitude earthquake hit Japan The earthquake, followed soon after by a tsunami, is the largest ever recorded in Japan and the fifth most powerful since 1900, according to the United States Geological Survey. There are 13 Ohio State students in Japan. OSU has heard from all of them since the earthquake.

you would be impressed as I was at the magnitude and the size of these projects,” he said, pointing out that the building can actually slide.

Japan’s strict building codes have been praised in the wake of the disaster, with many officials claiming they saved thousands of lives.

Carney said the key to the plant’s survival was “overdesign.”

“You can raise questions about … locating power plants in

earthquake areas as they have,” Carney said. “Japan as a country has a limited area and a huge population, and you do your damnedest to overdesign and live up to your goal.”

Carney said if a meltdown is averted, it could serve as a testament to safety precautions that designers of nuclear power plants take and could influence the use of the energy source around the world.

“There’s a resurgence of interest in this country, 24 proposals in this works,” Carney said.

“People will start to recognize that nuclear power is not a mistake.”

The Japanese Meteorological Association upgraded the magnitude of the quake from 8.8 to 9.0, which doubles the recorded power. It is the largest ever recorded in Japan, and sits as the fifth most powerful since 1900, according to the United States Geological Survey.

Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan called it the “worst crisis in the 65 years since the war.”

OSU geology professor Michael Bevis said Friday’s quake, and the 8.8-magnitude quake that hit Chile Feb. 27, 2010, which killed about 795 people, according to the Chilean

government, are known as “megathrust events.”

“In this case, the Pacific plate underthrusted the continental plate Japan sits on,” he said.

“That results in the continental plate thrusting upwards, which pushes the sea floor upwards.

That just blows a shock wave that moves at the speed of sound in water.”

Bevis said that is 500 miles per hour in deep water. When it reaches shallower water closer to the shore, the surge slows down, bunches up and increases in amplitude, pushing water onto land.

“It’s not a wave,” he said. “It’s more like a wall of water.”

Bevis said that wall can continue coming for as long as 15 minutes.

“It just keeps coming and coming,” he said.

The quake and tsunami combination, which occurred about 30 minutes apart, have crippled the area’s infrastructure, leaving cell phone towers and landlines down, and severely halting transportation as many highways, airports and train tracks were submerged in rushing water.

campus USG funds to Dems have Reps crying foul Larr y Bauman Lantern reporter bauman.7@osu.edu University money that the College Democrats at Ohio State received to help them with a trip to Washington, D.C., has the OSU College Republicans lashing out.

OSU College Republicans Chairwoman Meagan Cyrus is calling foul on College Democrats for receiving $500 from the Undergraduate Student Government’s student organization funding.

The money that the College Democrats received is expected to help pay for metro passes for the 25 students attending a trip to Washington, D.C., from March 19 through 23.

Cyrus has circulated e-mails and said on the College Republicans’ social media sites that “OSU College Dems get bill passed for student government handout of over $500 to fund a trip to DC to ‘tour monuments.’” She then pleads for OSU College Republicans to donate to “help stop outrageous liberal activities like this!”

USG President Micah Kamrass explained that the USG Senate gets about $40,000 dollars a year to give out to student organizations for student activity funding. This money is part of the allocation the Senate receives from the Student Activity Fee that is built in to all student’s tuition money.

“Tuition is already being raised and if my money is not being used to benefit me at all, but just certain groups of students, like for subway passes, then I’m obviously upset,” said Joe Burke, a third-year in political science and philosophy.

Any student organization can apply to receive USG money.

“Our senate does a very thorough job of making sure every dollar they commit to a student organization is worthwhile,” Kamrass said. “I think they spent their time doing their homework on this one and made sure it is a worthwhile event.”

The bill passed the Senate with a tally of 23-10-5. “(College Democrats) went through Senate process where they met with our budget and finance committee and had that approved,” Kamrass said. “It then went through our Senate and ended up getting that approved on Wednesday.”

Kamrass said he does plan on signing the bill, making it official.

“We spoke to senators and went through the normal process and made the same case that any other student organization would make,” said Matt Caffrey, College Democrats president.

Cyrus said she believes the bill’s passing was fundamentally wrong, since the money set aside for student organizations is meant for activities that the entire student body can participate in.

“We just thought of it as a non-educational trip that clearly had a partisan stance,” Cyrus said. “We’ve seen USG funding partisan, particularly with them, events over and over, and it’s something we want to bring to the student body’s attention.”

Kip Shoemaker, a fourth-year in agricultural business and applied economics did not agree with Cyrus.

“If USG passed it, and it’s for educational purposes, I agree with it, but I feel that other organizations should have the same opportunities,” Shoemaker said.

Caffrey said the College Democrats have made it clear for several weeks that they were planning a trip to Washington, D.C., and anyone

from the student body is invited to join, not just members of the College Democrats. He also said the purpose of the trip is to build leadership skills and educate students.

“The Republicans take these partisan trips that are obviously exclusive to our members and they say College Dems are open to any student at the university, but obviously the trip is specifically for College Democrats and for Democrats in general,” Cyrus said. “(They’ll) be networking with Democrats and going and looking at monuments in D.C. That’s not something that’s open to the university.”

Kamrass said he disagreed that the trip is partisan. He said the Senate looks into the fairness and legality of bills before voting on them.

“It seems like the College Republicans may be upset because they think that the Student Activity Fee money is going to a group that has an interest different from theirs, but the College Republicans are certainly eligible to receive USG funding, just as the College Democrats did,” Kamrass said.

Kamrass said the USG does not favor either the College Democrats or the College Republicans. He said USG has given funds to many campus organizations that have opposing viewpoints.

“If anything, we helped set a precedent that political organizations are student organizations like any other and should be eligible for USG funding and that helps the College Republicans,” Caffrey said. “So I really just don’t understand how they can be upset about the situation and I think it’s incredibly inappropriate for them to attempt to fundraise off of it and to vilify us.”

Bob Evans Farms Inc.’s announcement that it will be moving its corporate headquarters from Columbus’ South Side to New Albany in 2013 has left Columbus Mayor Michael Coleman feeling used.

“The decision is the product of an unprecedented partnership between Bob Evans Farms, the State of Ohio and the Village of New Albany,” said Steve Davis, president and chief executive officer of Bob Evans, at a press conference on Thursday at the company’s current location, 3700 S. High St. The company will be getting more than $11 million in incentives from the state, including $7.125 million in loans and $3.522 million in tax credits, to build the new headquarters near Beech Road and State Route 161, said Ohio Department of Development spokesman Jeff Botti.

The package from New Albany is worth $9.8 million, including a 15-year, $8.29 million property-tax abatement, New Albany spokesman Scott McAfee told The Columbus Dispatch.

Coleman spokesman Dan Williamson said the $14 million package that Columbus offered “was used as leverage for a better package from New Albany.”

Director of corporate communications for Bob Evans, Margaret Standing, said the company began exploring its options two years ago. It came down to renovating its current location, moving to another location in Ohio or moving to Texas, where the company owns land.

Gov. John Kasich’s administration touted the announcement as a victory.

“Our department worked quickly to make sure this Ohio icon remained in Ohio,” said Kasich’s spokesman Rob Nichols.

But Williamson said Davis told the mayor the company was never in danger of leaving the state.

“Steve Davis directly told the mayor this was a choice between staying in Columbus and moving to New Albany,” Williamson said. “The state ended up paying for something that was free.”

Williamson said Bob Evans came to Coleman’s office with the idea of moving to New Albany almost a year ago, and the city presented the package to keep the headquarters — along with its 360 jobs and $600,000 in annual tax revenue — in the city.

“Bob Evans made a number of requests in order to stay, which we met,” Williamson said.

Standing said the company’s first step two years ago was to reach out to Columbus and consider renovating the current three-building complex.

“One of the things we need to do is get everybody in the same building,” she said. “But once we started looking at open sites, we started realizing that the way the market was right now, you could get a lot of land for a pretty low price.”

The option of moving to Texas came about “pretty early in the process,” Standing said.

“The decision to stay in state really came about when we started talking to the Ohio Department of Development,” Standing said. She was unable to specify when any of the decisions were made.

Nichols said this is just the latest victory for the Department of Development, under the guidance of newly appointed Californian Mark Kvamme, who will oversee the department’s privatization into the nonprofit JobsOhio.

“His successes as director are manifest and significant,” Nichols said. “His fingerprint on the employment situation in Ohio has been immediate and indelible.”

Nichols said a pending suit against Kasich, which alleges Kvamme’s California residency renders him constitutionally ineligible to head the department, will have no impact on any decisions the department has made.

Part of the city’s proposal was a new building near Polaris, but Standing said New Albany’s aesthetic of “green spaces and white fences” was a better fit for the company’s brand image.

Coleman’s office is still feeling used. “(Coleman) is disappointed simply because he believes the facts were misrepresented by Bob Evans,” Williamson said.

Williamson said he does not doubt that Bob Evans told the Kasich administration they were considering a move to Texas.

“That’s obviously something they told Gov. Kasich so they could get the tax incentives (from the state),” he said.

Standing said the company was “disappointed” to hear the allegations from the Coleman administration, but said Bob Evans will continue to work with the City of Columbus to find a tenant for the old site.

She said the company has made the right decision.

“We’re a publicly traded company,” Standing said. “We needed to do what’s best for our shareholders.”

Bob Evans Farms Inc. is a $1.5 billion company, with 715 full-service restaurants in 18 states. It was founded in 1953 in Gallipolis, Ohio, and the headquarters moved to its current location in 1968.

Pledging to “Accept the Challenge,” more than 1,700 teenage 4-H members and adult volunteers visited Columbus Saturday for what officials said was the largest 4-H conference in the country.

The annual 4-H Teen Conference and 4-H Volunteer Conference, held in conjunction for the first time, yielded a bumper crop of 4-H enthusiasts.

“It’s the largest 4-H conference we’ve ever had in the state,” said Allen Auck, Ohio 4-H program manager for events and activities. “As far as we can tell, this is the largest event of its kind in the nation.”

4-H is the youth development program of Ohio State University Extension and the United States Department of Agriculture’s National Institute of Food and Agriculture. OSU Extension has an office in almost every county with faculty working to bring the research done at OSU “to the people,” according to the Extension’s website.

Ohio 4-H Youth Development, which is one component of OSU Extension, hosted the conference. Since Extension is housed within the College of Food, Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, the college often has a role in 4-H activities. Major sponsors, such as Bob Evans, Monsanto, Nationwide, the Ohio 4-H Foundation and the National 4-H Council, defrayed some costs for the conference.

Registration before Feb. 11 was $35; after that it was $45 for each teen or volunteer attending.

Combining the two conferences at the suggestion of past attendees proved a successful strategy, Auck said. The conference registered more than 730 teenage 4-H members and more than 975 adult volunteers.

Held at the Greater Columbus Convention Center, the day-long conference presented attendees with more than 80 workshops, seminars and keynote sessions on a broad array of topics.

For teenage members, session topics included “Building One Million New Scientists,” “4-H Goes Green” and “Careers that Can Change the World.”

Adult volunteers tackled issues ranging from grant writing and limiting volunteer liability to project-specific sessions such as archery and meat goats.

Several sessions focused on preparing teenagers for further education and career opportunities.

“We firmly believe that careers in extension can change the world,” said Marlene Eick, student services coordinator in the Department of Human and Community Resource Development and a conference presenter. The session on worldchanging careers that professionals from the College of Food, Agricultural and Environmental Sciences (CFAES) presented encouraged teens to consider pursuing opportunities in extension education.

“As 4-H members, they see one side of the desk,” Eick said. “This way they get a chance to see the bigger picture of what Extension professionals do.”

Students from the college also presented conference sessions. Six OSU agricultural ambassadors moderated three sessions on issues related to college preparation and selection, said Jill Tyson, CFAES’ prospective student services coordinator.

Dustin Homan, a third-year in agricultural education leadership, presented one of the day’s workshops.

“I was a little envious that I’d never attended the conference as a teenager, actually,” Homan said.

“It’s a jam-packed one-day event with everything you need to know about 4-H programs and college opportunities.”

Homan’s session, “Get Ready, Here Comes College,” walked teens through a career-interest survey and matched them with potential majors.

“We talked about taking the ACT, college visits, what resources they should use searching for colleges and how they go about the application process,” Homan said.

The state 4-H office, located in the Nationwide and Ohio Farm Bureau 4-H Center on campus, said more than 330,000 Ohio youths participate in 4-H, including more than 46,000 high school students.

More than 20,000 adult volunteers assist as advisers, mentors and supporters.

4-H has strong ties with Ohio. Educator A.B. Graham founded what would become one of the first 4-H clubs in Springfield in 1902. President E. Gordon Gee serves on the National 4-H Council’s Board of Trustees.

Gov. John Kasich is set to release his first state budget on Tuesday at 6 p.m. Information about the budget is scarce, but Kasich is expected to make cuts to higher education.

During Kasich’s State of the State address, he mentioned an $8 billion hole in the next two-year state budget. This is a hole that he said he would not raise taxes to fill.

In last week’s address, Kasich gave an indication where some of these cuts might be coming from.

“I can’t fill that stimulus gap. It’s not going to happen,” Kasich said.

Universities in Ohio now receive $3.4 billion for instruction from the two-year state budget, and $600 million from federal stimulus money.

That money, if Kasich follows through with what he said in his address, will not be replaced in his budget.

“There’s a high probability we will increase

tuition next year,” President E. Gordon Gee told The Lantern editorial staff Jan. 12, just after spending the day with Kasich in Detroit.

But until Tuesday, Ohio’s budget is “up in the air,” Gee said, and there’s no telling exactly how much money Kasich will allocate to higher education. With the state facing a more-than $8 billion deficit, it’s not likely to be much.

“I believe that the likelihood of the university getting additional funds is not high,” Gee said.

Robyn Kleiner, a fourth-year in music education, said as a culture, we need to look at the value of a college degree.

“All over the country people have been facing tuition hikes for college and Ohio has been immune from it for a while,” Kleiner said.

There is more to the budget than education alone. Kasich will continue to try and combat the unemployment rate, currently at 9.6 percent in Ohio, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

With the potential of increased tuition at Ohio State and the elimination of some Pell Grants and graduate student subsidies, the budget will be all-revealing to the state of Ohio and its future on higher education.

Former WikiLeaks official gives scoop on Assange

Daniel Domscheit-Berg writes of how he started and eventually bailed on the whistle-blowing organization.

Cold War Kids have had a busy year so far in 2011.

The band members have moved into new homes in Los Angeles, released their third album, “Mine is Yours,” and spent three weeks playing shows in Europe, and the pace is not going to slow.

The band is scheduled to play its first headlining show at The Lifestyle Communities Pavilion on March 16.

“We’re really excited about that show,” said lead singer and guitarist Nathan Willett. “It’s really cool that we have so much interest there.”

The show was originally scheduled to take place at Newport Music Hall, but after selling out the 1,700-person-capacity venue, it was moved to The LC, a 2,200-capacity venue.

“We had such a number of weeks in between it selling out at the Newport and show day that we wanted to be able to offer people tickets, so that’s why we moved it,” said Marissa Luther, marketing manager at PromoWest Productions.

Jacquire King, who is famous for his work with artists such as Tom Waits, Kings of Leon and Norah Jones, produced the new album. The band had never worked with King before, although they were fans of Waits’ “Mule Variations,” Willett said.

“It was a cool experience, I think because of the kind of roster of people that he has worked with,” Willett said. “I think he does a really good job

of making us empowered to kind of make all the choices.”

Aside from working with a new producer on “Mine is Yours,” the band also recorded in a new atmosphere and used a new process, Willett said.

The band’s previous albums were recorded near its former-home city of Long Beach, Calif., in about two weeks of recording, he said. The majority of the new album was done over a period of two months in Nashville, Tenn., and then finished in Los Angeles.

“We definitely went into it with different boundaries,” Willett said. “It was a different approach, we were more conscious of performing it right.”

Another new approach taken by the band was letting Willett handle all of the lyric-writing duties.

College audience votes for mtvU Woodies Vanessa Spate s Lantern reporter spates.3@osu.edu Three artists nominated in the 2011 mtvU Woodie Awards, including Sleigh Bells and Matt and Kim, talked about what it means to be chosen for an award, how college students set the trends for music, and following your dreams during a phone conference with The Lantern.

The Woodie Awards is the only college music awards show, according to MTV Executive Producer Eric Conte. The artists chosen for these categories are more underground than mainstream acts and are chosen by college students across the nation.

The live show is scheduled for midnight on Wednesday in Austin, Texas, (during South By Southwest) for the first time and Donald Glover from the show “Community” will be hosting.

“I know for a fact that college students are the reason why so many bands and trends have been built up and become universal and mainstream,” said Matt Johnson, from the band Matt and Kim. “College students are the pacemakers and know things before everyone else.”

Matt and Kim are up for Best Performing Woodie against Girl Talk, Robyn, Mumford & Sons and The National.

Johnson said the best part about performing is that unexpected things often happen. During their performance at the Woodie Awards last year, people onstage were taking their clothes off. The duo will be performing again at this year’s show.

Alexis Krauss, from Sleigh Bells, talked about the effect of exposing its music on MTV, and how the band became more mainstream with its music being featured on the show “Skins.”

“Derek and I are very open to using our music in many different ways. The show is a new thing. We’ve never really watched it, but MTV contacted us about using our music in the show,” Krauss said.

“It seemed like an interesting opportunity and a great way to expose our music to people who may never heard of our band. I think it’s really important for as many kids as possible to hear our songs.”

Sleigh Bells is nominated for Breaking Woodie, along with Dev, Local Natives, Wavves and Two Door Cinema Club. The voting for this category is left up to fans, and the polls will close on the night of the show.

“It’s a really good feeling to be recognized for your hard work,” Krauss said.

Before she left the call, she imparted some advice to anyone who wanted to pursue a career in music.

“If you believe you have good ideas, the next step is to work really hard at them. I know that sounds generic, but it’s true. Put yourself out there,” Krauss said. “If you believe you have the talent, talk to as many people as possible.”

arts&life Mainstream monster swallows all underground events ARtS Columnist RyAn BooK book.15@osu.edu It’s tough to keep things sacred in America. Things are coolest when they are smallest, but we insist on blowing everything out of the water.

I say this about South by Southwest, arguably the largest music festival in the world, which started on Friday. You can disagree on whether it’s a music festival or not, but that doesn’t nullify that more than 2,000 bands will be playing in Austin, Texas, during the next week.

It’s not the number of bands that bothers me. The idea behind SXSW when it debuted in 1987 was that it would give smaller bands a place to showcase their wares and possibly earn a deal with record label execs in attendance. About 1,885 of the bands in 2011 are in Austin looking to break out.

But why is TV on The Radio playing three shows at SXSW? It is far from the most popular band on the planet, but

it’s found its niche already. 2008’s “Dear Science” was one of that year’s most critically acclaimed albums. They won’t pick up a contract because label heads are already salivating to work with them.

At least TVoTR is a legitimately artistic band. Last year’s guests at the festival were shameless. The perpetually burned-out Courtney Love and her band Hole, and the possibly even more floozy Scott Weiland with Stone Temple Pilots, both made appearances 20 years into their careers.

I heard on the Sirius station Alt Nation that fans have been in line more than a week for The Strokes, who play on Thursday at 8 p.m. I can guarantee a packed house. Shows like that pull in all of the fans, so what happens to the other bands slotted for 8 p.m. shows at other venues? They lose out. Capybara, I’ve never heard of you (I see you’re named after a large South American rodent), but I’m going to check out your Myspace just because I feel bad that you have to compete with The Strokes.

South by Southwest is hardly the biggest offender. Take for example the legendary San Diego Comic-Con International.

Shel Dorf, a comic strip artist and founder of the event, said there were about 150 people at the first event held in 1970. In 2010, there were more than 130,000 attendees, according to ComicCon’s website. In 1970, Comic-Con was just that: a convention for comic book fans and collectors. Organizers still

only invite those directly involved in the comic book business, such as legendary artist Stan Lee, but that doesn’t stop Hollywood from buying up booths and exhibits.

“The Green Hornet” table: OK, fair enough. It’s based on a comic book.

“TRON: Legacy” table: not really comic related, but still pretty geek-heavy stuff. “The Expendables” table: Let’s be serious. Sylvester Stallone and 40 other action stars might make for a good protein bar advertisement, but it ain’t comic-related, that’s for sure.

The film industry has also lowered the credibility of the Sundance Film Festival, a fact that “South Park” lampooned in 1998. The show was accurate in its portrayal of how corporate festivals like Sundance have become, but it was unfair to aim the blame at the festival’s figurehead, Robert Redford. Redford and Sundance officials have been working to keep big filmmakers out, by introducing the “NEXT” category in 2010 for entries with minimal budgets. Funny, I thought that was what the regular Sundance films were in the ‘80s.

Outside companies are largely to blame for the corporatism at Sundance, however. Companies and publications like Entertainment Weekly rent space to create “lounges” and hangouts for celebrity guests. These guests are open to a free trip to Park City, Utah, a ski-resort town. The paparazzi follow and before long you’ve got a full-on media mess.

I don’t think anyone plans for these

iggy pop performs with the Stooges at South by Southwest. the band is among man y established acts now performing at the once unsigned-only event. things to happen, but it’s the inevitable consequence of celebrity culture. South

by Southwest is still a worthwhile event.

I’d love to go down and check out as many of those 1,800 or so unsigned bands as I could. But if I want to see The Strokes, I’ll go to an event like Lollapalooza in Chicago.

It’s great to be in on something that only a small crowd can relate to. One of

my favorites: The Mothman statue and museum in Point Pleasant, W.Va. It’s a one-room tribute to the crypto-zoological creature with an admission of about $3.

If the Richard Gere movie had become a blockbuster hit, and the museum went up to 10 rooms, I doubt I’d be nearly as interested.

The last speakers were the men of alternative hip-hop group Chiddy Bang. They are in the running for Best Video Woodie, along with The Black Keys, Duck Sauce, Gorillaz and Vampire Weekend.

“It’s definitely an honor to be nominated for having a creative video. That means we are striving to do something that hasn’t been done. We could have had a crazy party or something, but we really wanted to go a little deeper,” Chidera “Chiddy” Anamege said.

“And there was something cool about having big heads on little kids’ bodies. You’re supposed to have fun with it, you know?”

The Woodies are one way for college students to let mainstream America know what the next “big thing” is, Johnson said.

Other categories in the show are Woodie of the Year, Left Field Woodie and College Radio Woodie. The artists performing are the Foo Fighters, Wiz Khalifa, Sleigh Bells, Two Door Cinema Club and Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All.

arts&life Former friend goes sour on Assange LAURA RotheRAm For The Lantern rotheram.1@osu.edu “Do not challenge leadership in times of crisis.”

Foreign authoritarian dictator, perhaps?

More like Julian Assange, the founder of the controversial website WikiLeaks, or so said his former friend Daniel Domscheit-Berg.

That’s right, former. Domscheit-Berg lets you know right from the beginning that this particular relationship, both professional and personal, didn’t end well.

Published earlier this year, Domscheit-Berg’s “Inside WikiLeaks” takes you from nearly the beginning of the world-famous “whistleblowing” website to Domscheit-Berg’s suspension from the project and his subsequent formation of WikiLeak’s soon-to-be successor, OpenLeaks, a project involving a number of former WikiLeaks team members, with the notable and purposeful exclusion of Assange.

It hardly matters that the average reader will be unable to fully comprehend the technological inner workings of WikiLeaks. DomscheitBerg’s woes about server capacity, hardware and program coding go unappreciated. His character, however, is likeable and relatable as the over-worked and stressed assistant to Assange’s mad scientist.

“Mad” doesn’t even begin to describe it. Domscheit-Berg animatedly describes the quirks of his former best friend. In Assange, social cues are absent; an overwhelming desire for perfection dictates his “rules of conduct.”

“Julian aspired to type completely blind … he typed at a furious pace, moving through various text fields without glancing at the screen once. … He told me that working without optical feedback was a form of perfection,” Domscheit-Berg writes.

Domscheit-Berg said Assange is paranoid, convinced that people are following him. He’s always getting lost, trying to throw any stalkers off his tracks. Everything that went wrong was a conspiracy, an attempt to bring him down. Someone once “confiscated” his passport.

It became “unsafe” for him to leave Australia.

Maybe it wasn’t the most popular company, but as Domscheit-Berg puts it, “No one would hijack an Australian airplane to get rid of Julian Assange.”

Actual chat conversations interspersed throughout the book are telling of Assange and Domscheit-Berg’s relationship, particularly in the later stages. The reader comes away with Domscheit-Berg’s frustration.

When the book doesn’t revolve around Domscheit-Berg and Assange, it gets technologically complicated. The problems that assail WikiLeaks as time passes are involved and morally controversial. As the site falls apart, Domscheit-Berg plays the victim, and does so convincingly.

“It was almost funny. Julian Assange, chief revealer of secrets and unshakable military critic on his global peace mission, had adopted the language of the powermongers he claimed to be combating …

Later, when he tried to kick me out of WikiLeaks he said the reason was ‘Disloyalty, Insubordination and Destabilization in Times of Crisis.’”

Taken from the Espionage Act of 1917, these are military designations for “traitor.”

‘Yours’ from 6A

Alternative band fights mixed reviews for new album

Courtesy of Cold War Kids

the Cold W ar Kids are scheduled to perform on Wednesday at the Lifestyle Communities pavilion.

Much of his lyrical inspiration for the album was drawn from personal relationships that were going on around him, he said.

“I think a lot of it was from just watching my friends around me and their relationships, and being in a time in life where I think they really avoided commitment for a long time, but then kind of found themselves getting into committed relationships,” Willett said.

The album has received mixed reviews from the media since being released, something Willett said the band expected to a certain extent.

Rolling Stone echoed the sentiments of other critics, giving “Mine is Yours” a rating of 2.5 stars out of five, saying “the songs are tedious and overbearing.”

Although there has been some criticism, the band members aren’t letting it keep them from enjoying shows and playing the new songs, Willett said.

“It’s a cool time where the initial reviews come out and people have their varied opinions, but then getting to go actually play and tour is where it becomes kind of cool to talk to people and play the songs and really connect,” he said.

CWK is made up of Willett, guitarist Jonnie Russell, bassist Matt Maust and drummer Matt Aveiro. The band’s music extends from punkinfluenced blues-rock songs to slower, R&B-inflected pop tunes.

Julian Assange and daniel domscheit-Berg speak in Berlin in 2009.

“Inside WikiLeaks” is candid and honest, detailing the founders’ near-poverty at the beginning and tracing the unraveling of the site as Domscheit-Berg saw it. Biased? Maybe, but there’s something endearing about Domscheit-Berg’s struggle for the ideals that drove him to join a “whistle-blowing” project in the first place, with or without Assange.

It’s tech, but not distractedly so. It’s a story so unbelievable, it could hardly be contrived.

The group formed in 2004 in Fullerton, Calif. Over the next two years, the band toured and released two EPs, gaining attention from the music blogging community. It was signed to a record deal with Downtown Records, and released its first LP, “Robbers & Cowards,” in 2006.

CWK toured consistently for a year-and-a-half after its first album, building its audience and gaining the band a reputation, as well as praise in the media, for its live performances.

After touring for its first album, CWK settled in Long Beach, Calif., where eventually the band members felt isolated in a place that lacked a thriving music scene, Willett said. At the beginning of 2011, the group packed up and moved to Los Angeles.

“I think we just kind of got to a point where we want to be around more culture, more artists and have access to musicians,” Willett said.

Since their move, the band members have had little time to enjoy their new digs, he said. They toured Europe in February, and then had just a few days at home before starting their current American tour.

“It’s important that we really experiment with the freedom that we have and try to surprise ourselves with the music that we make, and I think this album was the first step in that,” Willett said. “I’m not sure what the next direction will be.”

A painting by Christina Hall-Strauss decorates the wall of Muse Gallery.

Kelsey Gi vens / Lantern reporter

Muse Gallery moved to German Village after 12 years in the Grandview area under the name ‘A Muse Gallery.’

Muse Gallery makes move, opens a second storefront Kelsey Gi vens Lantern reporter givens.64@osu.edu A Muse Gallery, now named Muse Gallery, has a new location and new sister company in German Village.

Muse Gallery moved to 188 Whittier St., with new sister operation Circle Gallery open right next door at 190 Whittier St. To celebrate the move to a new location, there will be a reopening party on Friday at 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

“There will be catering, live music and people milling in and out all day long as well as artists here to meet and greet,” said Hali Robinson, manager of Muse Gallery. “We’ve had a huge response; It will be a great way to check out the new space.”

Caren Petersen, owner of Muse Gallery, said after 12 years at the other location on Third Avenue,

it was time for something fresh and new, especially with an idea to split the gallery in two.

“We had become complacent and comfortable,” Robinson said. “With the new location there is a lot of hype and more walking traffic outside.”

Petersen said the gallery will continue to carry art from “mid-career” level artists. However, Circle Gallery will now carry more established artists who have moved past the mid-career-level point.

“Some of the artists we work with were becoming established artists and we didn’t want to risk losing them,” Petersen said. So she was inspired to split the gallery in two in order to avoid confusion about the type of art Muse Gallery carried.

The decision of which artists are sold in Muse Gallery versus who are carried in Circle Gallery comes down to levels of price and success.

Petersen said the more affordable, mid-career level artists will continue to be carried in Muse Gallery, while the other more successful artists will be separated out into Circle Gallery.

Petersen said the move was also partway to help fight the effects of the weak economy.

“It was a huge effort to make it survive,” Petersen said. “I needed to do it fresh, and changing locations was the perfect vehicle to do that.”

The down economy seemed to affect the creative as well as the business side of the art industry.

Like in many other businesses around the country, people were scared.

“A lot of artists took the safe way in their work, sticking with what had sold in the past,” Petersen said. “But to us, that’s boring, there’s not much inspiration in that.”

The new location seemed to be an inspiration not only for Petersen and Robinson, but for the artists they work with as well.

Robinson said they asked each artist with work currently in Muse Gallery to create a piece for the reopening. Inspiration from the new space was visible in the different work the gallery received from the artists.

Petersen said the change in the name came from confusion over the old name.

“It was a longstanding problem,” she said.

“People didn’t get (the name) and always thought it was funny; We had an identity problem.”

She said in addition to the confusion between humor and the Greek inspiration of art, one singular muse didn’t seem appropriate anymore either.

Petersen and Robinson decided to go with the new name, Muse Gallery.

“This way people will still recognize it’s the same gallery,” Robinson said.

When naming the Circle Gallery, Petersen decided to honor her father.

“My maiden name is Circle,” she said. “The name pays homage to my father who was supposed to die this year, but is still alive and well.”

Robinson said the name is also about connections.

“There are a lot of connections with the name,” she said. “It brings everything full-circle.”

THE TEAM TO BEAT Buckeyes capture Big Ten Tournament crown, earn No. 1 overall seed for NCAA Tournament

OSU beats PSU to complete second step of ‘mission’ ben aXeLrod Senior Lantern reporter axelrod.17@osu.edu

Penn state 60

INDIANAPOLIS — Earlier this week, Ohio State fifth-year senior forward David Lighty called this season a three-step mission. On Sunday, the Buckeyes completed the second step of that mission, beating Penn State, 71-60, to give OSU its second consecutive Big Ten Tournament title.

“This is a very exciting time for us. This was one

of our goals when we met in the summer … to come out and, first of all, win the regular season, then to win the Big Ten Tournament,” OSU senior guard Jon Diebler said. “We’re happy we accomplished this.

We’re going to enjoy it tonight and then get back to work.”

In the first half of Sunday’s championship game, the Nittany Lions fought back from an eight-point deficit, cutting the Buckeyes’ lead to one, before a block by OSU senior center Dallas Lauderdale ignited a fast break that led to a driving layup by Diebler to extend the OSU advantage to three.

Moments later, Diebler connected on a 3-point shot at the buzzer to give the Buckeyes a 29-23 lead heading into halftime.

“I was just fortunate to make a shot, I guess. I knew time was running down,” Diebler said. “It was just great momentum going into halftime.”

Diebler picked up right where he left off in the second half, connecting on a 3-point shot to spark a 17-6 run to start the half, as the Buckeyes extended their lead to as many as 17 points.

2. No. 6 seed Xavier’s Tu Holloway is the best player you’ve never heard of. The Atlantic-10 Player of the Year was second in the A-10 in points, assists, steals and free-throw percentage. Holloway also has recorded two triple-doubles on the season, and scored 26 points in last season’s Elite 8 loss against Kansas State.

3. The best first-round tilt will take place between No. 8 seed George Mason and No. 9 seed Villanova. George Mason comes in winner of 16 of its last 17 games, while Villanova has lost five in a row and seven of its last nine. This game will feature two teams that look to push the tempo, evidenced by both squads’ 73-points-a-game averages.

4. No. 2 seed North Carolina is the only team in the region with enough size potentially to get OSU’s big men in foul trouble, and the talent to go shot for shot with the Buckeyes. However, the Tar Heels’ tournament inexperience is a major concern.

1. No. 1 seed Duke likely needed its championship run in the ACC Tournament to secure a No. 1 seed after beating North Carolina, 75-58, in the conference title game. The Blue Devils benefited from Notre Dame falling to Louisville in the semifinals of the Big East Tournament. There’s speculation about whether star freshman guard Kyrie Irving’s toe injury will allow him to participate in the tournament.

2. No. 8 seed Michigan will take on the team that took out OSU last year in the Sweet 16, No. 9 seed Tennessee, in the first round.

The Wolverines ranked 249th in the country in scoring and will face the Volunteers, led by 6-foot-7 Scotty Hopson’s 17.4 points per game.

3. After being in contention for a No. 1 seed for most of the season, No. 4 seed Texas fell after losing three of four games to unranked teams late in February. The Longhorns will take on No. 13 seed Oakland, who some have pegged to be a Cinderella team after winning the Summit League Championship.

The Aztecs suffered their only two losses to BYU, but beat BYU, 72-54, in the Mountain West championship game Saturday. They take on No. 15 seed Northern Colorado, led by guard Devon Beitzel’s 21.4 points per game.

5. Kemba Walker took No. 3 seed Connecticut to a five-gamesin-five-days championship run to the Big East Tournament — a conference that sent 11 teams to the NCAA Tournament. The 6-foot-1 guard averaged 26 points per game in the conference tournament.

senior guard Jon diebler sinks a 3-point shot as time e xpires in first half of the buckeyes 71-60 win against Penn state on sunday.

Lucas: OSU has ‘good shot at winning’ title James oLdham Senior Lantern reporter oldham.29@osu.edu INDIANAPOLIS — The Ohio State men’s basketball team appears to be collecting championships. There’s only one left, and it’s the most elusive of them all.

It’s so elusive, only one OSU men’s basketball team has won the NCAA Championship before: the 1960 team, led by coach Fred Taylor and the tournament’s Most Outstanding Player, Jerry Lucas.

This year’s version enters the tournament as the No. 1 overall seed. It will go on to face the winner of a play-in game between Texas-San Antonio and Alabama State on Friday in Cleveland.

Lucas said he believes this team has a shot at being the second OSU team to win an NCAA Championship.

“I think they have a good shot at winning,” Lucas told The Lantern. “They’re strong inside; they have good shooters; they handle the ball well and have a good perimeter game. They’re strong in every facet of the game.”

Lucas warned that the road to the finals isn’t an easy one.

“They’ll be ready, but what is it, six games they’re going to have to win? It’s going to be tough. If they’re not shooting well and some other team gets hot it could cause them

problems,” Lucas said. “But they have all the weapons they need.”

Lucas wasn’t the only alumnus who said he has faith in this squad. J.J. Sullinger, another former Buckeye basketball player and older brother of freshman forward Jared Sullinger, also weighed in on this team’s chances.

“We have so many weapons. People talk all the time about how we don’t have any depth. We absolutely have depth,” J.J. said. “We have confidence in every Buckeye that goes into the game. If we play defense and rebound well, nobody’s going to beat us.”

J.J. had some advice for the younger guys, including Jared and freshman forward Deshaun Thomas, who have never played in the NCAA Tournament before.

“It’s back to the drawing board. It’s a new season and a different kind of commitment,” J.J. said. “It’s win or go home. They’re celebrating right now, but once you step out of the shower it’s a brand new season.”

For their part, even the young Buckeyes seem to understand what’s at stake, including being the No. 1 overall seed.

“It’s something special,” Sullinger said. “At the same time we still have a lot of work to do so it doesn’t stop here. … You just have to take it one game at a time and focus on your opponent.”

Coach Thad Matta said he considered it an honor given the parity in college basketball.

“You look across the country at all the great teams, and I give our guys a lot of credit,” coach Thad Matta said.

“They’ve come ready to play for 34 games, and probably the hardest thing I think we’ve found this year was the effort that the teams give to beat you each night.”

In the locker room after the game, junior guard William Buford, like Matta, acknowledged that this team would have a bull’s-eye as the No. 1 overall seed. He also said it wouldn’t bother them.

“It’s no pressure for us,” Buford said. “We’re just going to go out and play how we know how to play, and play Ohio State basketball.”

The last time the Buckeyes earned a No. 1 seed was in 2007, when they advanced all the way to the finals before loosing to the eventual champion Florida Gators.

Buford admitted his team has some weaknesses.

“Our defense, we take too many possessions off on defense. I think we need to get our offensive execution together too,” Buford said. “We’re getting good shots; we just weren’t knocking them down (this weekend).”

After the Big Ten Tournament was over, and everything was said and done, senior guard Jon Diebler put everything into perspective.

“We’re happy we accomplished this,” Diebler said.

“We’re going to enjoy it tonight and get right back to work.”

You should ignore what this year’s Big Ten awards list tells you, because this weekend’s Big Ten Tournament made something perfectly clear: Ohio State’s Jared Sullinger and Thad Matta are the best player-coach combo in the conference.

Despite laying claim to the conference’s top coach and top player — as named by the media and Big Ten’s coaches — Purdue was upset in the second round of the conference tournament, and for the second time in as many weeks, the Boilermakers fell two games shy of a Buckeye conference crown.

Purdue senior forward JaJuan Johnson, who earlier in the week was named the Big Ten’s Player of the Year, scored 21 points and grabbed nine rebounds in the Boilermakers’ second-round matchup with Michigan State, but his effort wasn’t enough to keep the Spartans from picking up the win.

Conversely, Sullinger scored 20 points and pulled down 18 boards in OSU’s secondround overtime victory against Northwestern. When the moment mattered most, the Buckeyes depended on the Big Ten Freshman of the Year, who scored 10 points in overtime and connected on 16 of 18 free throws in the game.

And, thanks to his team picking up the win, Sullinger kept on playing, as he averaged 16.3 points and 14 rebounds over three games — all OSU wins.

But Sullinger doesn’t deserve all the credit for the Buckeyes’ weekend success. Matta, who

Sullinger hauls in Most Outstanding Player award bLake WiLLiams Senior Lantern reporter williams.3012@osu.edu INDIANAPOLIS — Just like in 2007, the Ohio State men’s basketball team is a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament.

Just like in 2007, a freshman post player was named the Big Ten Tournament Most Outstanding Player.

Jared Sullinger was given the honor following his team’s 71-60 victory against Penn State in the championship game Sunday. The Buckeye forward becomes the second freshman ever to receive the award along with 2007 recipient OSU center Greg Oden.

Despite earning the rare honor, Sullinger deferred much of the praise to his teammates.

“I couldn’t get that award without my teammates.

They really helped me. There’s times when you can’t double me because (senior guard) Jon Diebler’s hot or (junior guard) William Buford’s hot. (Senior forward) Dave Lighty can be hot anytime he wants to; (freshman guard Aaron) Craft can get his points but he chooses not to,” he said. “I couldn’t do it without these guys. They really help me out.”

Sullinger averaged a team-high 16.3 points and 14 rebounds per game over the Buckeyes’ three tournament contests. He logged 45 minutes in the team’s overtime victory against Northwestern on Friday. Sullinger hauled in 18 rebounds and scored 20 points in that win for his best statistical performance of the weekend.

“He was a monster. … That’s crazy for anybody, not even a freshman,” Buford said of his teammate winning the award. “If he was a senior and did it that’s just crazy. He stepped it up real big for us and we need him.”

Buford joined Sullinger and Diebler on the All-Tournament team. Northwestern senior guard Michael Thompson, Michigan State senior guard Kalin Lucas and Penn State senior guard Talor Battle were the other selections.

Though he was given the highest individual award of the tournament, Sullinger did not shoot well throughout the weekend, averaging just 33 percent from the floor.

Diebler indicated that, for the Buckeye freshman, it’s not all about shooting.

“Just how he affects the game without having the ball, and even when he does have the ball, he draws so much attention that he creates for all of us on the perimeter,” Diebler said. “So when you have a

guy like that, obviously it makes things easier for us on the perimeter because he’s such a force inside, and the one thing that I love about Jared is how he rebounds.”

The attention on Sullinger came at a price, as the forward took a lot of punishment during the three days. He went to the free-throw line 38 times in the tournament, connecting on 25 for 66 percent from the charity stripe.

The effort required to sustain that punishment and remain on the floor for an average of 39 minutes a game showed against the Nittany Lions.

“When you take beatings for three days straight,” Sullinger said, “I was surprised that everybody wasn’t sucking wind the way I was.”

Three other Buckeyes have taken home the Big Ten MOP award: Oden in 2007, Boban Savovic in 2002 and Evan Turner last year. Sullinger’s honor marks the second time players from the same team have brought home the award in consecutive years.

Mateen Cleaves and Morris Peterson did so for Michigan State in 1999 and 2000, respectively.

Despite Sullinger’s poor shooting percentage and the fact that he averaged almost a point less than his season average, Lighty said he thought the award was well-deserved.

“He can affect the game without scoring, especially shooting (13) free throws a game,” he said. “I mean, he’s knocking those down and getting every rebound around him. You can’t stop that.”

Hopefully for the Buckeyes, their next opponent can’t stop it either. The team will play the winner between Alabama State and Texas-San Antonio on Friday in Cleveland.

sports Ohio State’s draft hopefuls excel at school’s Pro Day chris biderman Senior Lantern reporter biderman.1@osu.edu With a national TV audience, intensive medical examinations and the unfamiliarity of being on the road, the NFL Scouting Combine can be a nerve-racking experience.

That’s why Ohio State’s Pro Day on Friday was such a welcomed relief for former Buckeyes looking to break into the pro ranks and hear their names called at the NFL Draft during the last weekend of April.

“I think it’s a lot better. You’re in the place you’ve been training for your whole career, so I think it puts you a little more at ease,” offensive lineman Justin Boren said. “Combine — all the cameras, so many people — it’s nice working out here.”

The pre-draft process is an arduous one of being constantly evaluated in nearly every way imaginable, from on-field positional drills to personal interviews that gauge players’ personalities and character.

A school’s Pro Day represents the end to the constant needling of prospects until NFL teams invite players to their facilities to have private workouts just prior to the draft.

Wide receiver Dane Sanzenbacher expressed relief that the Combine and his Pro Day were over and likened the process to something everyone looking for a job has to go through after college.

“It’s a big job interview,” he said. “Not many of them are fun but they’re necessary evils, but it’s to get to do what you really want to do.”

Sanzenbacher was one of the big winners of Pro Day, reducing his time in the 40-yard dash to 4.48 seconds on Friday from 4.59 at the Combine.

“You haven’t been poked and prodded by doctors for three days so I mean, it felt good. It felt better,” he said.

Sanzenbacher said he has no idea where he will get drafted come late April. He said teams will likely question his slight build, but he proved a lot by running a sub-4.5 40-yard dash. He hopes that his solid career and game film at OSU will be enough for scouts to form a solid impression of the Buckeyes’ 2010 MVP. Buckeye coach Jim Tressel was in attendance and watched his former players participate in drills from afar.

It was announced last Tuesday by the school that Tressel would be suspended for the first two games of next season for allegedly violating the school’s compliance policy and NCAA Bylaw 10.1 by not reporting e-mails he received last April from local attorney and former Buckeye Christopher Cicero, who indicated that Terrelle Pryor and DeVier Posey had sold OSU memorabilia to Eddie Rife, the owner of Fine Line Ink tattoo parlor.

Other performances on Pro Day that helped players’ draft stock came from linebackers Ross Homan and Brian Rolle, defensive lineman Dexter Larimore, Boren, defensive backs Devon Torrence and Jermale Hines and running back Brandon Saine.

Homan improved his time in the 40 to 4.6 seconds from 4.68 at the Combine, Torrence improved to 4.5 seconds from 4.68, Hines to 4.57 seconds from 4.68 and Saine to 4.4 seconds from 4.43.

One of OSU’s most interesting draft prospects is Rolle, who is considered undersized for an NFL linebacker and might be asked to make a position change to safety. The four-year letterman has plenty of solid game film to go with his decorated career as middle linebacker for

the Buckeyes. He won four Big Ten Player of the Week awards and was selected by coaches for the Randy Gradishar Award for outstanding linebacker.

Weighing 230 pounds, 12 pounds more than his playing weight his senior year, Rolle said he would play wherever he was needed and participated in position drills at both linebacker and, for the first time Friday, defensive back.

“It’s not really hard because I’ve heard ‘You’re short’ my whole life. It is what it is. God wanted me to be 5-foot-9 and 7/8 for a reason,” Rolle said. “I’m not going to shy away from playing linebacker just because somebody says I can’t do it. I’m going to compete and work hard at what I’m good at. When a team looks at me as a safety, I’m willing to do it.”

Despite being undersized by traditional standards, Rolle’s 4.51 in the 40 proves that he’s fast enough to be a safety. At the Combine, he put up 28 reps of 225 pounds. Only Homan (32) and Boston College’s Mark Herzlich (29) did more reps as linebackers.

Rolle said the biggest difference between linebacker and defensive back is the pack pedal used to drop into coverage. He mentioned that linebackers at OSU would sometimes get into a “lazy backpedal,” but that his athleticism would show teams he’s more than capable of learning how to drop into coverage.

In the NFL, many non-starters are asked to play special teams — an area that seemed to excite Rolle more than playing defense.

“That’s the first thing they ask, ‘Are you willing to play special teams?’ I love special teams. I don’t feel like there’s nothing more (fun) to do,” he said. “It’s great to play defense, great to play offense. Special teams, you get to set the tone of games … or change the momentum of a game … that’s something that at the next level, I think can really help me out.”

Homan is one of the most sure-fire picks in this year’s draft of the Buckeyes coming out. Both his 40 time of 4.6 and his performance in the bench press at the Combine ranked highly for his position. He’s added 13 pounds of muscle since the season ended and is up to 240 pounds.

“They say they evaluate you on 90 percent of your game film and 10 percent of your combine, so I’m happy with that because I think my game film speaks for itself,” Homan said.

Homan was a three-year starter, first-team All-Big Ten performer, Sports Illustrated honorable mention All-America and academic All-Big Ten. He amassed 287 tackles (17 for loss) in 54 games as a Buckeye.

He also has the outstanding pedigree NFL executives associate with linebackers from OSU, something Homan attributes to his position coach.

“Luke Fickell is one of the best coaches, I believe, in college football,” Homan said.

Hines is another Buckeye in flux when it comes to a position at the next level. He played the “star” position at OSU, which is a hybrid of safety and linebacker. The four-year letterman with three career interceptions participated in drills for both defensive back and linebacker on Friday.

Aside from improving his 40 time to 4.57 seconds at his Pro Day from 4.68 at the Combine, Hines broad-jumped 9-feet 6-inches. He said he thought he played well at both safety positions as a Buckeye but only had one regret.

“The only thing I wanted more of during my college career was people to take more shots at me … throw the ball at me more. … Every

Larimore and offensive lineman Bryant Browning weren’t invited to the Combine, but were excited to workout for scouts for the first time since ending their college careers.

For a defensive tackle, Larimore ran an impressive 4.97 in the 40 and bench pressed 225 pounds 32 times. Browning participated only in position drills because he said he tweaked his hamstring last week. He said he will participate with defensive lineman Cameron Heyward during Heyward’s personal Pro Day on March 30.

Heyward injured his elbow in the Sugar Bowl win against Arkansas and subsequently needed Tommy John surgery to repair a tendon in his elbow. He was present at Pro Day, but didn’t work out. He’s been a regular at the team’s 6 a.m. workouts all last week and, prior to his injury, was considered a first-round pick.

Defensive back Chimdi Chekwa ran a speedy 4.4 at the Combine and decided that was enough. All he did at the Pro Day was participate in positional drills.

Former Buckeyes James Laurinaitis of the St. Louis Rams and Malcolm Jenkins of the New Orleans Saints were in attendance.

Representatives for 29 of the NFL’s 32 teams were at OSU’s Pro Day — only the Washington Redskins, Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals did not have anyone in attendance.

sports Players stand behind scrutinized coach Pat brennan Lantern reporter brennan.164@osu.edu Jim Tressel broke the rules and is entering arguably the most embarrassing and potentially damaging chapter of his career.

Many are questioning their previously unflinching support of the man known as the Senator. His players are not among them. “(Tressel) has all of our support,” former linebacker Ross Homan said after Ohio State’s Pro Day workout Friday. “I think every player — past, current, present … would take two bullets for that man and everything that he’s done for us.”

In an interview with ESPN’s “Outside the Lines,” Christopher Cicero, a Columbus lawyer, said he sent e-mails to Tressel mentioning that Terrelle Pryor and DeVier Posey had connections to Eddie Rife, the owner of Fine Line Ink tattoo parlor in Columbus, who is under a federal drug trafficking investigation.

Tressel and Cicero exchanged eight e-mails about the players’ involvement with Rife from April 2 through June 6, 2010.

Cicero, a former OSU linebacker and letterman during the 1983 season, did not respond to multiple requests for comment.

OSU athletic director Gene Smith declined to comment following the Buckeyes’ 68-61 win against Michigan on Saturday.

Pryor and Posey, along with Dan Herron, Mike Adams, Solomon Thomas and Jordan Whiting, were suspended for the start of the 2011 season for selling memorabilia to, and receiving improper benefits from, Rife.

Former defensive lineman Dexter Larimore said the team firmly supports Tressel.

“Honestly, I think the more I talk to guys in here, they’re kind of locking arms and saying, ‘Coach Tressel is our guy,’” Larimore said. “He’s definitely still my guy, that’s for sure.”

On Tuesday, OSU released the e-mail conversation between Cicero and Tressel. OSU representatives on Friday declined to confirm the names of the football players Cicero mentioned.

University spokesman Jim Lynch said OSU is required by law to censor information that is specific to individual students.

“The Federal Education Rights & Privacy Act requires us to redact any information that can lead to the identity of students, especially a student’s

and y go ttesman / Multimedia editor

ohio state football coach Jim t ressel answers questions from the media on t uesday. name,” Lynch said in an e-mail to The Lantern.

“As caretaker of these documents, we still cannot reveal the student names in the document.”

Athletic department spokeswoman Shelly Poe also declined to confirm ESPN’s report, saying in an e-mail to The Lantern, “We will not have any more comments until the NCAA makes its ruling.”

OSU’s investigation of the matter resulted in Tressel being suspended for the first two games of 2011 for failing to report the possible infraction to the university after Cicero brought it to his

u s .

o

s v

attention. Tressel was fined $250,000 to cover the costs of OSU’s self-investigation.

“It’s disappointing that Ohio State’s in that light again,” former wide receiver Dane Sanzenbacher said. “Anytime we’re in the media over something bad happening, everybody’s affected that’s involved in the program, everybody in Columbus.

But everyone’s accepting their punishments; everyone’s saying the right things and moving on from here.”

Lighty earns

3rd Big Ten Tournament title, the most in conference history “We always had the confidence; we just had good shots; we just wasn’t knocking shots down,” OSU junior guard William Buford said. “We knew if we played good on defense that eventually our shots would fall on offense.”

Buford led the Buckeyes in scoring with 18 points against the Nittany Lions.

OSU freshman Jared Sullinger recorded his third double-double in as many games, scoring 15 points and grabbing 11 rebounds, as he set the school’s tournament record for rebounds with 42 for the weekend. For his efforts, Sullinger was named the tournament’s Most Outstanding Player.

Sullinger, along with Buford and Diebler, represented OSU on the All-Tournament team, joining Northwestern’s Michael Thompson, Michigan State’s Kalin Lucas and Penn State’s Talor Battle.

Battle led the Nittany Lions in scoring with 24 points in the championship game, and senior forward Jeff Brooks added 19 points for a Penn State team playing in its first conference tournament title game in school history.

With the win, the Buckeyes captured their conference-record third Big Ten Tournament title, having also won the 2010 and 2007 titles. OSU had its 2002 tournament title vacated because of sanctions stemming from NCAA rules violations.

Sunday’s win gives Lighty his third Big Ten Tournament title, the most of any player in conference history.

“You stick around long enough, like I always say, things like that happen,” Lighty said. “Without my team, all that is not possible. You got to commend them, and especially our coaching staff on doing a great job of keeping us focused.”

Having won both the conference’s regular-season and tournament titles, the Buckeyes locked up the No. 1 overall seed for this year’s NCAA Tournament.

OSU will face the winner of Wednesday’s matchup between Texas-San Antonio and Alabama State on Friday in Cleveland.

“It’s one and done now, so you’ve just got to take it one game at a time and focus on your opponent,” Sullinger said. “At the same time you just want to win. I mean, everybody has a mentality of winning on this program.”

less than a week ago was passed over in favor of Purdue’s Matt Painter as the Big Ten Coach of the Year, led the Buckeyes to their second consecutive Big Ten Tournament title, the third of his career.

When it came to the conference awards, however, Matta was hurt by what he does best: recruiting. The Buckeyes boast four returning starters from last year’s Big Ten championship team, and added two incoming McDonald’s All-Americans before the season. Nevermind that recruiting is part of the coach’s job — his team is supposed to win, and people don’t get rewarded for doing only what’s expected of them.

Painter, however, benefited from having his best player, Robbie Hummel, tear his ACL before the season. Expectations were lowered, so losing the conference title by two games was not a disappointment, but rather an accomplishment.

Hummel’s injury also deserves some credit for Johnson’s Player of the Year award. Getting Purdue’s top player out of the way opened the door for Johnson to lead the conference in scoring en route to earning the Player of the Year award.

Sullinger, on the other hand, was punished for playing with superior talent surrounding him.

Apparently, leading your team in scoring and rebounding while playing alongside three other All-Conference selections is viewed by the voting coaches and media as a negative, not a positive.

But Sullinger and Matta gladly will take a pair of conference titles over a pair of individual awards any day. And if this weekend wasn’t enough, the Buckeyes have another three weeks to show why they have the best coach and player in the conference — if not the nation.
