Buckeyes beat Badgers

The No. 1 men’s basketball team crushed Wisconsin, 93-65, on Sunday at the Schottenstein Center.

The 2011 Sugar Bowl provided Ohio State a sweet payday. The 2010 Rose Bowl was a ÿnancial thorn in OSU’s side.

University ofÿcials project OSU earned nearly $290,000 from participating in the 2011 Sugar Bowl.

According to documents The Lantern obtained, OSU lost nearly $80,000 from the 2010 Rose Bowl, with more than $250,000 of in expenses going toward entertainment, postage and unsold tickets.

Pete Hagan, associate athletic director for ÿnance, told The Lantern that OSU submitted a ÿnancial report to NCAA managing director of ÿnance and operations Keith Martin in advance of a Feb. 28 deadline. The report indicates OSU actually earned about $288,000 from the Sugar Bowl.

OSU beat Arkansas, 31-26, in the Sugar Bowl on Jan. 4. An interception by defensive end Solomon Thomas ended a Razorbacks drive in Buckeye territory with less than a minute left, sealing the victory.

DANIELLE HIXENBAUGH For The Lantern hixenbaugh.9@osu.edu

More than 2,300 students are not enough to start a new tradition of jumping into a body of water on Selection Sunday, but that doesn’t mean a different tradition will not begin.

The Facebook event, “Selection Sunday Jump,” went from 547 to more than 2,300 attendees since Feb. 7, when The Lantern published an article about the event. Organizers said they wanted to jump into the Olentangy River on Selection Sunday to support Ohio State’s basketball team.

However, a meeting with the event organizers and OSU ofÿcials halted the jump, although it is murky who actually decided the jump would not happen.

Representatives from Student Life, Deputy Chief Richard Morman of OSU police and the event coordinators attended the meeting.

“We tried to work something out mutually. They weren’t pleased with the idea, but we wanted to do something and that’s when the negotiations went in a different direction,” said Frank Hoyt, a third-year in business ÿnance and one of the organizers of the event.

Ruth Gerstner, the director of communications for Student Life, said although Student Life never

supported the original idea, Nate Kinkopf and his colleagues realized the dangers of jumping in Mirror Lake or the river and decided to halt the plans for the jump themselves. OSU ofÿcials are working with the event creators to provide a safer alternative for next year.

“We are thinking about having a viewing party at the Schott (Schottenstein Center). It’d be catered with prizes, giveaways, a big screen and possibly a half-court shot for free tuition or something like that,” said Kinkopf, a third-year in sports and leisure studies and the main organizer of the event.

Morman said the meeting was successful and although Kinkopf has a lot of planning to do, he can deÿnitely pull it off.

Kinkopf and his colleagues have begun to tackle the planning process.

“We have already scheduled meetings to become an ofÿcial student organization and we want to take the proper steps in pulling this off,” Hoyt said.

Although a new tradition is on the horizon to support the basketball team, some students are upset about not being able to jump this year.

“It just seems that they (the university) won’t bend over backwards for the basketball team like they do for the football team,” said Mike Rones, an undecided second-year.

Rones said he is not going to shave until OSU wins a national championship.

“I was completely ready to jump in. Whether

jumping in Mirror Lake or the river, I would do whatever it takes to support the basketball team,” Rones said.

Although Gerstner said the Selection Sunday jump could not be accurately compared to the Mirror Lake jump and could not give speciÿc costs for extra resources that would be involved in the Selection Sunday jump, Mirror Lake has proved events such as these can be costly. The Lantern reported on Nov. 22 that clean up alone from the Mirror Lake jump costs about $20,000.

“For the Mirror Lake jump, the university puts a lot of resources into the situation to make it less risky, including staff, volunteers and buildings opening up,” Gerstner said.

The initial idea concerned the staff at the OSU Medical Center, too.

“Ninety percent of diving injuries happen in six feet of water or less,” said Ann Smith, chapter director for ThinkFirst Central Ohio.

ThinkFirst is a program about “using your mind to protect your body and making good choices,” Smith said.

Even though the original proposal was not supported, Kinkopf said he was pleased with the recognition.

“It’s obviously not what we wanted, but it’s deÿnitely a step in the right direction that they are

campus Wheelchair basketball games get lift from OSU’s ROTC TRENT BARTER Lantern reporter barter.1@osu.edu Five-on-ÿve basketball, one ball, two hoops and end-to-end action.

What sets this basketball game apart is the players are all doing it from the seat of their wheelchair.

The Columbus Recreation and Parks Department, Therapeutic Recreation, hosted its ÿnal wheelchair basketball event of the year Saturday at Franklin Park Indoor Adventure Center.

Children with orthopedic disabilities came from around central Ohio each Thursday since the ÿrst week of December 2010 to compete in the 4 Foot Hoops Wheelchair Basketball League & Tourny.

With six teams, including a team of volunteers from Ohio State’s Air Force ROTC program, recreation leader Luke Edelbrock sees the program as an opportunity for those with physical disabilities to be part of a team.

“It’s just a nice, special day where everybody gets together and has a lot of fun,” Edelbrock said. “It promotes inclusion because there’s a lot of kids who are wheelchair users and there’s a lot of people who come who are friends.”

One of these friends is teacher Karen Harris from Independence High School in southeastern Columbus, who works with many of the participants on a daily basis. Harris, a teacher of 28 years, said these children learn valuable life lessons through the program.

“It’s a big source of socialization,” Harris said. “You have to have social skills if you want to interact in the world. It’s a practical life skill for them.”

Harris said fun can quickly turn into competition.

“They get a chance to see their friends and very rarely can they get together like this in a social setting for a common purpose, and the challenge, oh my God, they are so competitive,” Harris said.

Marjorie Rogers, a participant in the games diagnosed with spina biÿda, echoed Harris’ sentiments.

“It can be competitive, but everybody has fun too,” Rogers, 17, said.

Spina biÿda is a birth defect that occurs when the spine of a baby fails to close during the ÿrst few months of pregnancy, according to the Spina Biÿda Association’s website.

It is because of this fun and competition that 18-year-old Darius Taylor, also diagnosed with spina biÿda, attends the games.

“There’s a lot of people who have disabilities and it’s great for them to come here and compete and have fun at the same time,” Taylor said.

Friends of Therapeutic Recreation runs the concession stand during the all-day event with all proceeds beneÿtting the 4 Foot Hoops program and other after-school programs commonly held at Columbus Park of Roses in Whetstone Park. Tickets for door prizes and T-shirts are also sold to beneÿt the programs.

Friends of Therapeutic Recreation secretary Tina Frazier, whose son who was involved with Therapeutic Recreation for 12 years, still volunteers with the program today.

“My son has beneÿted from the camp and the wheelchair events and the after-school programs,” Frazier said. “It’s a way to give back and help support all the other kids who are still involved today.”

Frazier promotes the camp with the lessons her son learned there.

“He’s made friends and long-lasting relationships. He has been mentored by the staff and coaches,” Frazier said. “They gave him life skills by giving him responsibility and giving him praise when he succeeded.”

Whether it is for fun or competition, Edelbrock made one thing clear: Everyone gets a chance.

“This is recreation and I promote giving everybody an opportunity,” Edelbrock said. “Everybody needs to touch the ball. Everybody gets to play.”

The games are ofÿciated loosely, but scores are kept as teams converge on 4-foot hoops. There are about 10 people per team, but rosters are not ofÿcial. When opponents are needed, people without physical disabilities participate alongside those with disabilities.

Members of OSU’s Air Force ROTC program helped out Saturday, adding another team to the tournament. They have been helping out at the games since the start of Winter Quarter.

Mike Siemer, a ÿrst-year in mechanical engineering in the ROTC, was a ÿrst-time participant in the games.

“I don’t think most of the participants can normally do this kind of stuff, so I think they really enjoy being part of a team,” Siemer said.

Air Force ROTC community relations coordinator Tim Stanÿll said the program is all about making it fun for the participants.

“It’s deÿnitely enjoyable for them to play with other people and the people they’re with every single week and meet new friends. They can’t do this all on their own,” Stanÿll said. “Whether it’s helping them out refereeing or providing another opponent, the idea is to provide some fun for the kids.”

The ROTC are not the only ones volunteering at the games.

Edelbrock estimates there were about 28 volunteers attending Saturday’s games with the majority coming from Friends of Therapeutic Recreation, the fundraising group for Therapeutic Recreation.

The organizers prefer to wait until next year because there is a lack of organization at time this year.

“When we do it, we want to go all out. We want something that will stick and Student Life is there to support us in making this a lasting tradition,” said Kinkopf.

The Facebook event facilitated the process of gaining student interest.

“It opened the eyes to students that people do care about the basketball team and want us to do well,” Hoyt said.

Kinkopf said he wants people to know that he is not trying to take away from the football team, but simply trying to open the door for other teams than football to be supported.

Lucia Dunn, an OSU professor who teaches a course in sports economics, said the limited revenues teams earn from bowl game appearances is a result of “taking a lot of people to the bowls.”

Costs covered the trip for 239 team and staff members, 283 band and cheerleading members and 136 faculty members and athletic department ofÿcials.

“When teams go to these bowl games, it’s expected that they’re going to drop a lot of money in the host city,” Dunn said. “If you look at what a school like OSU does, they pay for the whole marching band, there are a lot of important administrators who go full-ride.”

OSU spent $19,355 on entertainment for the team or for administrative events, Hagan said, and $3,900 on hotel security. The team stayed at the New Orleans Marriott, four blocks from Bourbon Street.

Aside from meals and lodging and transportation, the next largest cost resulted from unsold tickets. OSU absorbed the hit from 1,064 unsold tickets, ranging in price from $140-170 apiece. The university also incurred the cost of 609 tickets that the conference failed to sell, all of which cost $120.

In all, OSU incurred a cost of $222,410 from unsold tickets.

The University of Connecticut, which The Daily Campus, Connecticut’s student newspaper, reported lost nearly $1.8 million at the 2011 Fiesta Bowl, absorbed more than 14,000 unsold tickets to a total cost of nearly $3 million.

Auburn University reported a loss of more than $614,000 at the BCS Championship Game in Glendale, Ariz., according to a report Thursday by The Birmingham News. The

athletic department did not return calls or e-mails.

Kathy Gaspard, director of business operations for the Sugar Bowl, told The Lantern that the Sugar Bowl paid the Bowl Championship Series a $6 million rights fee.

Gaspard said the Sugar Bowl’s ÿscal year ends June 30. She said she should have a projection for how much the bowl earned by May. The BCS pays the Big Ten directly. The conference then distributes evenly among the 11 Big Ten schools the difference between the bowl payouts and the bowl reimbursements.

According to a Jan. 25 release from the BCS, the Big Ten earned a total net revenue of $27.2 million, the same amount as the SEC and Big 12. Two teams from each of the three conferences played in BCS bowl games.

The Lantern attempted to reach BCS Director Bill Hancock, but was told Hancock is “out of the country.”

The Big Ten received an at-large net share of $6 million from the Sugar Bowl, said Big Ten director of media relations Scott Chipman.

By comparison, the Big Ten earned more than $4.5 million from Michigan State playing in the Capital One Bowl in Orlando, Fla. The Spartans lost to Alabama, 49-7.

The reimbursement ÿgure for the Sugar Bowl — the amount allotted for OSU to spend on its week-long trip to New Orleans — was $2 million, the second-most of the eight Big Ten teams that played in a bowl game.

Wisconsin, which lost to TCU, 21-19, in the Rose Bowl, had $2.25 million to spend.

OSU’s expenses totaled more than $1.7

Tigers won the national title, beating Oregon, 25-22. Oregon also reported a deÿcit of more than $285,000.

OSU knows what it’s like being in the red following a BCS bowl game.

The Big Ten provided OSU with a $2.2 million expense allowance for the 2010 Rose Bowl. OSU incurred nearly $2.28 million in costs.

Transportation cost the school more than $997,000; meals and lodging cost the school more than $956,000. The university failed to sell 998 tickets, at $145 apiece, totaling a $144,710 hit.

The school brought fewer people to the Rose Bowl, toting 233 team and staff members, 284 band and cheerleading members and 124 faculty members and athletic department ofÿcials along for the trip.

OSU spent more than $55,000 on entertainment in Pasadena, Calif., nearly triple the amount the university doled out for the Sugar Bowl.

OSU also spent nearly $51,000 on “postage,” which Hagan said stemmed from the university having to send out tickets via FedEx because of a “short turn-around time.”

OSU and Oregon were ofÿcially selected to play in the Rose Bowl on Dec. 6, 2009. The game took place on Jan. 1, 2010.

The team’s trip to Pasadena lasted eight days, while its stay in New Orleans lasted seven days.

The Buckeyes defeated Oregon, 26-17, in the 2010 Rose Bowl.

“It’s part of the whole deal,” Dunn said.

student voice More attention paid to Bieber’s hair than Buckles’ heroics jay clouse Lantern columnist clouse.86@osu.edu Did you hear about Frank Buckles?

No? Unfortunately, you aren’t alone.

Buckles was born Feb. 1, 1901 and died Feb. 27. That’s right, he died at age 110.

However, Buckles is remarkable for much more than his age.

At age 16, Buckles joined the United States Army to serve in the war, and his death marked the passing of the last American World War I veteran.

Buckles earned several military honors in his lifetime, including the French Legion of Honor. The day following Buckles’s death, President Barack Obama ordered that the United States flag be flown at half-mast on all government buildings, embassies, and at the White House during Buckles’ interment.

To me, the passing of an American hero, the last of his kind, is significant to our country. Evidently, Obama feels the same. However, in the days following Frank Buckles’ death, though noted in some capacity on many major media outlets, few students took notice.

Buckles generally received only a modest headline on the side of most online news sources, while Christina Aguilera got front-page press for being arrested on public intoxication charges.

Rewind to the Super Bowl. Aguilera was ripped for not being patriotic, or loving her country enough to know the lyrics to the National Anthem. So when a man who loved his country so much that he joined the armed forces at age 16 dies, isn’t that conversely laudable and worthy of attention?

Justin Bieber was in the news that day as well. He was caught holding hands with a girl.

As I said, Buckles was 16 when he joined the army, the same age Bieber was at the time. (Bieber has since turned 17, headline news for some sources.) What was Bieber doing at age 16? According to TMZ. com, getting a haircut.

Not to say that there weren’t bigger news stories that day, but can’t

Americans take one day off from Bieber Fever to reflect on the life of an American soldier?

Judson Burns, a third-year in dentistry who is on Individual Ready Reserve for the Army, said he took notice of Buckles’ passing. “I read about it on Yahoo. News media doesn’t have to cover military deaths, but it’s nice to see when the media pays some respect to the soldiers,” Burns said.

Burns also said he personally can’t imagine going into war at 16, especially after having served in Iraq at 22. However, he pointed out that people were probably more adult at a younger age in Buckles’ time.

“He is an automatic icon by default. It’s always sad to hear when a soldier dies. He is something we lost and will never have back,” Burns said.

I admit Senate Bill 5 or the conflict in Libya might be directly affecting more people’s lives right now.

That said, I think a fallen soldier always deserves some acknowledgment and reverence for the sacrifices they make for us. This week I reflected on the life of Frank Buckles: America’s last Doughboy. I hope more do the same.

Kasich, Ohio must make difficult decisions LANTERN Columnist

An estimated 8,500 people gathered outside the Statehouse on Tuesday.

They were protesting Ohio Senate Bill 5, legislation that changes Ohio’s collective bargaining law for public employees.

Certainly, Ohio Republicans, especially Gov. John Kasich, have come under fire by union supporters who say this legislation is purely political and an attack on the middle class.

The dissent has perhaps become so heated, that many of the arguments made by the protesters, and many others on the left, aren’t exactly adding up.

BRAD MILLER One popular argument is that politics miller.4410@osu.edu motivates the bill, because unions have historically supported democratic candidates in large numbers. Also, they say unions make up such a small portion of Ohio’s workforce that “attacking” them will do little or nothing to impact the state’s deficit problem.

I agree this bill alone will not be enough and that much more will have to be cut down the road. And they are right when citing the size of unions. In fact, less than 14 percent of Ohio workers belong to public sector unions.

But then, in the next breath, these same people claim that SB 5 will “destroy the middle class.” So, basically, we are to believe that Kasich is targeting a group so small that it cannot impact the state’s budget, but at the same time is large enough to destroy the entire middle class.

Something doesn’t compute. Spraying Round-Up on 14 percent of your yard doesn’t kill the whole thing.

But that analogy is harsh rhetoric compared to what the bill actually contains. The original bill was amended to allow negotiations of wages, hours and working conditions. Also, the state Office of Collective Bargaining estimated that Ohio would have saved $1.3 billion last year had SB 5 been in effect. That is no drop in the bucket.

To argue that the bill is perfect would be futile. Nothing government ever does is perfect. But much of what the bill contains has support, not only in Ohio, but nationwide. Collective bargaining might be a hotly contested issue, but you will not convince me that the majority of people who otherwise support the bill will be completely turned off by it with the collective bargaining provision.

During the Obamacare debates, both sides were told that the bill was not flawless, but that it should be supported because of the many positive benefits it contained. I think the same could be said for SB 5.

Republicans in Ohio, like in most of the country, enjoyed overwhelming victories in November. Despite the left’s efforts to label Kasich “anti-union,” he nevertheless won the election. Ohioans wanted their government to make difficult decisions regarding the deficit. With an $8 billion hole, continuing to avoid the state’s problems would be irresponsible and likely fatal for Ohio.

Many more cuts must be made, and if Kasich and the Ohio Congress are unwilling to make them, then we should all protest. Until then, they have my support, because the difficult decisions facing our state have been put off long enough.

State deficit pressing issue for Kasich, Kvamme zachary watson Lantern columnist watson.620@osu.edu Experts have estimated that Ohio is somewhere in the ballpark of $8 billion in debt, and the state’s unemployment rate, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, is at 9.5 percent. Connected to Ohio’s economic woes are students at Ohio State, where rumors of a tuition raise are rife. Couple this with President Barack Obama’s economic proposal to eliminate Pell Grants, and the modern student will profess to profuse sweating.

To get Ohioans back to work and to bring companies to the state, Gov. John Kasich and the new head of Ohio’s Department of Development

Mark Kvamme have started work on JobsOhio, a private, nonprofit organization seeking to revitalize Ohio’s economy. Red flags, however, need to be raised.

First, Kvamme is a venture capitalist that is a resident of California, not Ohio. This fact has elicited claims of Kvamme’s appointment as being unconstitutional, and undeniably he should be viewed with suspicion; he’s an individual that has been appointed to a state position in a location where he doesn’t plan to reside. Kvamme receives no additional trust for a comment made in an interview that ran in The Columbus Dispatch on Feb. 19, as he blamed only the federal government for causing the economic crisis.

Mystifyingly detaching the blame from closefisted CEO’s suspicion aside, Kvamme should have

his opportunity to get companies and jobs to come to Ohio, but it comes at the cost of the second red flag.

The second imperative issue is that Kasich is familiar with America’s corporate sector; his management position with Lehman Brothers investment firm serves as vital knowledge in what position Ohioans and students should take toward Kasich’s policies in making decisions for Ohio. Kasich has claimed that JobsOhio will be completely transparent, but the only transparent functions announced are four meetings throughout the year and an annual report. One annual report is not enough. The costs of this organization to taxpayers and what money goes into the company need to be shown in a monthly report. State money in an $8 billion deficit is nothing to mishandle.

Similar to Kvamme, Kasich deserves his opportunity to improve this state. Regardless of the strategy, if it places Ohio’s economy in a positive direction, it’s an excellent idea. The truth is, however, that America’s financial collapse needs to be fresh in the minds of everyone. Big business and its propensity to overpay higher-ups was one of the many factors that led to the economic meltdown.

Kasich and Kvamme need to remember that this is a state, not a corporation. The citizens and students who reside here are not your employees; they are citizens that form this state, and we have the choice in deciding how long you keep your positions.

‘Winning’ isn’t everything: People with tiger’s blood have flaws, too sheryl roadcap Lantern columnist roadcap.2@osu.edu Actor Charlie Sheen has been all over the media this week. He is one of those celebrities that was highly celebrated for quite some time during his career and has had people watching every outrageous move he makes. He is one of the entertainers that we build up while choosing to look the other way during his various indiscretions. However, it seems that they have finally caught up with him, prompting production of his hit show “Two and a Half Men” to be shut down early before the end of its season.

All of the drama surrounding Sheen, which cannot be avoided anytime the TV or radio is turned on, brought to mind this common cycle in America with entertainers. The media just love to build people up and put them on this idolatrous pedestal and feed their egos while practically worshipping every move they make, only to, a while later, make it the mission to tear them down to the lowest of pits.

4A

Many times, the celebrities they build up — like Paris Hilton — should never have been elevated in the first place (although this is usually a result of public popularity). But on the other hand, there are a slew of celebrities who have awe-inspiring talent yet whose actions aside from their craft draw negative attention. Michael Jackson, Tiger Woods and Whitney Houston are a few names that come to mind.

Others, such Britney Spears, Miley Cyrus, and even, perhaps, Christina Aguilera, who are not quite the caliber of the first category, also come to mind.

All of these people are talented and popular figures in American pop culture, but their odd behaviors led them to be media targets.

Of course, Jackson, “The King of Pop,” had plenty of courtroom troubles, but his extravagant lifestyle and extreme plastic surgeries also drew a constant media circus. Woods, one of the greatest golfers of all time, admitted countless infidelities that forever tainted his wholesome image. Houston, America’s former pop sweetheart, let her relationship with ex-husband Bobby Brown and substance abuse make more headlines than her career accomplishments. Spears, one of the first Disney prodigies to go awry, was larger than life 10 years ago, yet has

barely managed to remain afloat. A few years ago, her bizarre behavior seemed like she was on a daily rollercoaster while making the paparazzi her close friends (which they documented) after breaking-up with Kevin Federline.

More recently, another Disney star, Cyrus, was recorded and revealed to be smoking the herb salvia from a bong, thus severely altering her fairly clean teen image. And then there is Aguilera, who only days ago was arrested for public intoxication after a series of public embarrassments, including taking a new boyfriend immediately after separating from husband Jordan Bratman, screwing up the National Anthem at the Super Bowl, and nearly falling off the stage at the Grammys. Aguilera is making it easy for the tabloids.

All of these people benefited from the positive side of fame, but when their narcissism or simply human flaws came through during the down times, the media were right there, waiting for condemnation. We idolize celebrities in this country and it is ridiculous; the rise is over the top and the degradation is even more pathetic.

Entertainment is great, but we need to take a step back and funnel our energy and money into other worthy things.

The Ohio State Department of Theatre’s production of “Spring Awakening” delivered a convincing performance, but at times left some audience members confused.

It seemed the play’s main focus was to address all aspects of the taboo topic of sex and youth in industrial Germany. This was done through the use of a long dialogue during which a young boy masturbates in front of the entire audience, a rape scene and the unplanned pregnancy of a 14-year-old girl.

Emily Mills’ performance as Mrs. Gabor, a loving and protective mother, was convincing and far better

than expected from a student actress. During a scene in which she argued with her husband over the fate of their son, Mills’ emotion as she delivered dialogue stole the show.

Mills’ emotional character, accompanied with the comedic relief of John O.S. Houston as Fetch and Zacharey Owens as Headmaster Hart-Payne, kept the audience’s attention and gave colorful background to the more serious topics shown.

Things became confusing for me, however, when German industrial rock music was played during scene changes. Loud rock music blared as the stage went dark at the end of a rape scene and later, after a suicide.

This was slightly off-putting and almost comedic.

The music did not fit the serious tone of the play and resulted in many confused comments from the

audience. Audience member Tyler Mitchell summed it up best when he said the music “kept interrupting from the feel of the show.”

The camera work that accompanied the play and strange music was well-done and added a more professional element. Student actors and actresses crouched on the edges of the stage manned hand-held cameras during the scenes they did not participate in. The images they filmed were projected onto a screen at the back of the stage. This gave audience members the opportunity to see the expressions of the characters up close, providing a more intimate view into the characters’ problems.

Overall, the acting was well-done and the visual additions were successful, but perhaps less rock music would have resulted in a better version of an already-successful play.

Sheen: a supermassive black hole in the ‘Twitterverse’

6A

ARTS Columnist

Let’s imagine that the “Twitterverse” is in fact a real, spatial body. If it were anything like the real universe, it would contain galaxies (Twitterxies?) that would revolve around central, supermassive black holes, the collapsed remnants of stars that are billions of times larger than our sun. This phenomenon is visible right now in the Twitter universe with the black hole Charlie Sheen.

Sheen is an ideal candidate for the role. He is, after all, a collapsed star (or at least a burnt out star). Even more noteworthy is his force of gravitation.

Galaxies revolve around supermassive black holes because of the immense gravitational pull. Sheen, despite lapsing into a combination of Kanye West ego and Randy Quaid insanity last week, has gathered even more fans into his gravitational pull as a result. According to CNN, Sheen added 1.5 million followers on Twitter over 48 hours after his interview with ABC’s Andrea Canning went viral.

Whereas most people would take heat for claiming to have tiger blood or be on a drug named after them, Sheen is eating it up. He uses “#tigersblood” as a “hash tag,” a Twitter term for putting a tweet in context, for nearly every tweet he sends out, playing off of his own idiosyncrasy and converting it into new fans. He is, in short, #winning.

This is the power that social media possesses. It is now possible to whip up a virtual posse of supporters a million strong in less than two days.

I’m sure that Sheen is pleased to have all the love and support, but in reality looks to the supporters as a bargaining chip. Sheen can use his fans, now official Guinness record for most followers added in one day on Twitter, to indicate his popularity to CBS and possibly even make more money than

RYAN BOOK book.15@osu.edu his previous $1.2 million an episode, already the highest salary in television. If not, at least he’s making extra change marketing his zany quotes on T-shirts. The tactic of employing Twitter followers as leverage isn’t new. Conan O’Brien did the same thing following his replacement by Jay Leno as host of “The Tonight Show.” O’Brien used his popularity with younger audiences (who of course make up the largest percentage of Twitter users) to gain a new show on TBS and simultaneously make NBC look like a bunch of idiots.

O’Brien has more than 2.5 million followers. Leno has about 144,000. As for actual television ratings, O’Brien draws in an average audience of around 1 million, as opposed to Leno’s 3.5 million viewers, according to Nielsen Media Research. The numbers don’t lie; Leno is crushing his opponent, and yet O’Brien manages to remain relevant thanks to the pop culture power he rakes in via social media, like Twitter and Facebook.

You don’t have to be a celebrity to work social media magic, however.

As of Sunday morning, Harry Potter fans across the Twitterverse began

tweeting about Cedric Diggory, a long dead character from the series. As a result, “Cedric Diggory” was listed in the “trending” column, a list of the most popular topics on Twitter. There was no reason why Diggory was newsworthy, but when a Harry Potter fan tips over the first domino, the rest fall in line.

Theoretically, if I had friends (which I don’t), I could ask them on Twitter to start posting tweets about the H.P. Lovecraft octopus-headed character Cthulhu, and in a few days, with any luck, it’d be a trending topic.

The point is that any idiot (Sheen or myself) can start galvanizing Twitter followers into a cult-like following (admittedly, Sheen can do it faster than I. He’s a winner). But, as Sheen’s ex-wives will tell you, just like with a real black hole, the closer you get to it, the faster it rips you apart. Granted, I think most of his followers are just jumping onboard to catch some more bizarre quips. They won’t suffer when Sheen, thinking himself a demigod because of online success, collapses even further into oblivion.

To quote West, another monster of Twitter (2.6 million followers), “no one man should have all that power.” It’s not because Sheen is going to wreck our lives, he’s just going to further wreck his own. As West rapped about life deteriorating in the spotlight during the same song: “Now this’ll be a beautiful death.”

PAT BRENNAN Lantern reporter brennan.164@osu.edu INDIANAPOLIS — The Ohio State women’s basketball team slogged through confetti and streamers as it cut down the nets after claiming its third consecutive Big Ten Tournament title Sunday.

Following a Feb. 6 loss to Northwestern at the Schottenstein Center, the Buckeyes had a 4-6 record in Big Ten conference play, and their future seemed bleak.

Fast-forward to 3:30 p.m. Sunday.

OSU (22-9), the Big Ten Tournament’s No. 5-seeded team, was tipping off in the championship game against No. 2-seeded Penn State (24-9) at Conseco Fieldhouse.

Fast-forward again to about 5:25 p.m.

At that moment, the Buckeyes were hoisting the Big Ten Tournament championship trophy above their heads at midcourt as confetti showered over them.

The title was the fourth in program history.

Senior center Jantel Lavender and junior guard Samantha Prahalis propelled

the Buckeyes to the victory, grabbing a game-high 23 points apiece. Lavender, Prahalis and sophomore guard Tayler Hill were named to the Big Ten All-Tournament team. Lavender was also named the tournament’s Most Outstanding Player.

The Buckeyes’ heroes of the quarterÿnal and semiÿnal rounds were senior guard Brittany Johnson and Lavender, respectively, and it appeared that Prahalis assumed that role in the ÿrst half against Penn State.

The Lady Lions led, 12-8, at the ÿrst media timeout, thanks to a balanced offensive attack led by junior guard Zhaque Gray.

Prahalis had an early answer for Gray, scoring six points in the ÿrst half during a 13-4 run that put OSU ahead, 21-12, with just more than 11 minutes until halftime.

The teams went on to match each other nearly bucket for bucket, for much of the ÿrst half. Prahalis continued to drive the Buckeyes’ offense, accumulating 14 points and three assists.

Prahalis said Penn State’s defense allowed her open looks at the basket.

“I had a lane,” she said. “Every night is different for me. It’s just what the game brings.”

Lavender added nine points of her own as OSU took a 44-39 lead to ÿnish the half.

But eight points from Gray and 12 from Penn State sophomore guard Alex

Follow @LanternSports on Twitter for instant sports updates

When Jon Diebler arrived on campus in 2007, he was joining an Ohio State men’s basketball squad that had been in the National Championship the year before.

At the time, the basketball program’s recent success left the incoming freshman with a chip on his shoulder.

“We expected things to just be given to us,” Diebler said. “I mean, we worked extremely hard, but we didn’t do what we had to do to win enough games and get into the tournament.”

That year, the Buckeyes went 24-13 and missed out on the NCAA Tournament, settling for a berth in the National Invitation Tournament.

“But along with that, freshman year I think we all learned from it, from going to the NIT. It gave us a whole different perspective on things,” Diebler said.

“We’ve come a long ways and I know we couldn’t be happier to go out with this team. We’ve got a pretty good team right now.”

Three years later, the Buckeyes are the Big Ten champions, and the catalyst for their last two wins has been Diebler. After shooting a record-breaking 10-for-12 from beyond the arc against Penn State on Tuesday, Diebler again led the team in scoring after shooting 7-of-8 from 3-point territory in Sunday’s 93-65 win against Wisconsin.

“We needed to pressure the strong hands, and we needed to get up a little, especially on Diebler,” Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan said. “When you hit 10, I thought we did a great job of holding him to seven.”

Diebler, who participated in the Senior Night festivities before the start of the game, ÿnished with 27 points, six rebounds and four assists.

After the game, Diebler was having trouble ÿguring out why he’s been shooting so well lately.

“I’ve just been getting a little bit of daylight, and

(my teammates) are doing a great job of screening for me and getting me the ball,” he said. “I’m just fortunate enough to knock them down. I don’t even know how to explain it.”

Diebler has now gone 17-for-20 from deep over the last two games, an 85 percent shooting display. Some basketball players are lucky to be that automatic from the free-throw line, much less from the 3-point line.

“It’s an amazing run for him, and I told the team after the game that we were 14-of-15 from three and Jon apologized to everybody for missing,” OSU coach Thad Matta said. “All of the shots that he shoots, and all of the practice that he does, you know it’s very gratifying to see him shoot like that.”

OSU set an NCAA record for 3-point shooting percentage in a single game with 93.3 percent accuracy from deep.

“That’s, what, the ÿrst time in six or seven games that we’ve had the same guy lead us in scoring twice?” Matta said. “And I know this: Jon will score zero points for us; as long as we win, he’s ÿne with that.”

1B

sports 4th Big Ten Tournament Championship in OSU history Bentley meant the Big Ten title was far from decided. But the Buckeyes were within 20 minutes of accomplishing a goal that seemed unattainable in early February.

A determined Lavender opened up a personal 6-0 run to extend the Buckeyes’ lead. Then, a steal and some quick passing led to an easy layup for her, which extended the lead to 59-46 in the second half.

OSU supporters cheered, and Lavender signaled to the fans for even more noise as she ran back on defense.

Hill drilled a step-back jumper to increase the Buckeyes’ advantage to 63-49 with less than 13 minutes remaining.

OSU was on its way.

Penn State redshirt sophomore forward Mia Nickson scored 15 points, with 11 coming in the second half.

But it wasn’t enough to help the Lady Lions claw back into the contest. Bentley misÿred on numerous 3-point attempts as OSU extended its lead.

Johnson missed a 15-foot jumper after nearly letting the shot clock expire, and Lavender hauled in the offensive rebound with 2:12 remaining. The Buckeyes retained possession for the remainder of the game, coasting to an 84-70 win.

Lavender credited the win, at least in part, to OSU’s experience in prior Big Ten title games.

“I deÿnitely think our experience here has helped us win this game,” Lavender said. “I think us having that experience in the last three years (helped us to) just deal with three games in three days.”

That’s exactly what the Buckeyes did.

guess,” Johnson said following the game. “I just wanted to step up and help my teammates out.

That’s what I did.”

After her team suffered elimination from the tournament, Iowa coach Lisa Bluder said Johnson is a threat on the court.

“You’ve got to know where she is all the time,” Bluder said.

“She is a really, really good 3-point shooter.”

On day three of the tournament, OSU played Michigan State (26-5) with a berth in the championship game on the line.

Lykendra Johnson, Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year, was standing between the Buckeyes and a third consecutive tournament title — literally. But Lavender made quick work of her with a historic performance.

Lavender torched the Spartans for 37 points, a Big Ten Tournament single-game scoring

record, en route to a 72-57 win.

Lavender also tied the tournament’s single-game record with 15 ÿeld goals on 15-of-20 shooting to help the Buckeyes get to Sunday’s championship game.

With his team on the doorstep of history, OSU coach Jim Foster lauded the Buckeyes’ focus after Saturday’s win.

“We’re smart enough, patient enough,” Foster said. “Good teams don’t get real high and don’t get real low. We just go about our business.”

Despite her record-breaking performance, Lavender did not emphasize her personal accomplishments, but focused instead on what her team did well in its three wins against the Spartans this year.

“The times that we’ve played Michigan State our team has really (understood) who we are as a team,” Lavender said. “It’s not any different situation, except for

the number by our team is No. 5, and I think we’re playing like the No. 1 seed right now.”

Lavender said after Saturday’s win that she “likes playing at Conseco Fieldhouse.”

Sunday’s championship game against the Lady Lions afforded her, along with senior teammates Johnson, guard Alison Jackson and forward Sarah Schulze, a chance to exit the arena as Big Ten champion one last time.

Foster said the 2010–11 team is better than the previous two teams he coached to Big Ten titles.

“I would say this was the best team of the last three,” Foster

said. “I think how we won this is a re° ection of that.”

With the win, the Buckeyes clinched the Big Ten’s automatic berth to the NCAA Tournament.

The Buckeyes now await the announcement of their seeding and opponent.

With the NCAA Tournament still to come, Prahalis said her team has a good sense of where it is and where it’s been.

“We’re very conÿdent,” she said. “We don’t forget where we was a month ago. All we have is each other.”

OSU will represent the Big Ten in the NCAA Tournament for the ninth consecutive year.

OSU had to overcome No. 4-seeded Iowa, No. 1-seeded Michigan State and No. 2-seeded Penn State before the indoor ÿreworks could be detonated overhead at Conseco Fieldhouse. Each opponent presented a different challenge, but the Buckeyes were up to the task.

By virtue of its 10-6 regularseason record in conference play, OSU earned a bye into the tournament’s quarterÿnals and began play Friday against the Hawkeyes (22-8).

Lavender and Prahalis, the Buckeyes’ top two scorers, were slow to get involved on the offensive end of the court that night, but Johnson picked up the slack.

Johnson scored a seasonhigh 23 points on 8-of-16 shooting, and her 7-of-14 shooting from 3-point range was instrumental in OSU’s 71-61 win.
