Cases involving alcohol charges and sexual misconduct on campus
One Ohio State freshman returned to her Steeb Hall dorm room after a March 2 sorority function hoping to get a good night’s sleep. But the rest of her night, and the two months since, have been a nightmare. While she slept in her lofted bed, a male stranger walked into her room, which was unlocked because her roommate was still out for the night, and climbed into her bed at about 12:30 a.m. March 3. She says he raped her. The freshman, whom The Lantern has chosen to grant anonymity because the case involves an alleged sexual assault and who will be referred to as “Jane” throughout this article, had gone to bed wearing her dress from her sorority event. She said the man put his hand up her dress. After she pushed him off her bed and called for help, he ran out of her room, leaving behind his shoes and baseball cap. Now Jane says she wants OSU to change its policies regarding sexual misconduct after the Student Conduct department within the Office of Student Life issued a punishment she felt was too lenient in the case. “Before this happened, I thought The Ohio State University was prestigious and it was an honor to be there. I’m a fifth-generation here, and now it means nothing to me.” She never saw her assailant’s face but was able to identify him through the clothes he was wearing and the items of clothing left in her room. When Jane’s resident adviser responded to the situation, they found a male student walking around her floor without shoes, visibly intoxicated, Jane said. According to Jane and her father, whom The Lantern has chosen to call “Joe” to protect Jane’s identity, witnesses said the male student had been written up earlier in the evening for being visibly intoxicated. Joe said that according to reports he saw, before the incident, the man was so intoxicated he tried kissing one female RA when she wrote him up. The man later punched another male when the RA asked his friends to help put him to bed, according to the reports. Though The Lantern reached out to the RAs associated with the incident, RAs are prohibited from speaking on the record due to residence hall policy.

It is possible a small amount of data was not translated to the new system. Jane did not immediately press charges, but did file a police report later in the evening on March 3. OSU’s Student Conduct department held an administrative hearing for Jane’s case on May 2 and found former Buckeye freshman wrestler Devin Visconti in violation of four university policies, including sexual misconduct. Sexual misconduct involves “physical contact or other non-physical conduct of a sexual nature in the absence of clear, knowing and voluntary consent as defined in the Code of Student Conduct.” Visconti, who has not been criminally charged, also violated the policies on endangering health or safety, disorderly or disruptive conduct and alcohol, which includes “Use, production, distribution, sale or possession of alcohol in a manner prohibited under law or applicable University policy,” according to the final report from the hearing obtained by The Lantern. Visconti received a one-year suspension, through May 3, 2013, during which time he is not permitted to enter or be present on any OSU campus or property, according to the terms of his sanctions. Additionally, Visconti must complete an alcohol assessment course with a licensed substance abuse professional prior to reenrollment and is not to have any contact with Jane, according to the documents.
Prior to his suspension, Visconti was moved to another residence hall. Jane is still living in Steeb Hall. Visconti did not respond to multiple emails. His father Robert Visconti answered the phone Friday at his parents’ house in North Reading, Mass., but directed The Lantern to Devin Visconti’s lawyer. A Tuesday follow-up call to his parent’s house went unanswered. Devin Visconti’s lawyer John Tyack, whose office is located at 536 S. High St., did not respond to multiple phone calls and emails sent Monday and Tuesday. Jane and her family do not think the university handled the case appropriately. They said they are shocked that Visconti was not permanently dismissed from the university and they feel his punishment equates to a “slap on the wrist,” Jane said. “He should have been dismissed, because that’s all the university can do,” Jane said. Joe said he feels the university has failed his daughter by not issuing a harsher punishment and was shocked by the case’s outcome. “We were just devastated. I just couldn’t believe it because every witness, one right after another,

Rifle team shoots to top at Buckeyes Got Talent

The Ohio State men’s rifle team used a YouTube video as inspiration for their act and added a few twists of their own to defeat eight other teams and win the sixth annual Buckeyes Got Talent event Tuesday night at St. John Arena to raise more than $6,000 for charity. Maxwell Snyderman, redshirt sophomore and member of the rifle team, said the idea for their act came from a YouTube video titled, “Matrix Ping Pong.” Team members played a simulated game of pingpong while performing various stunts to different types of music. Snyderman said there were other ideas for the show, but they ultimately fell through, which led them to choose the winning act. “We had a couple of different ideas,” Snyderman said. “We were gonna do a song and then that fell apart, and then we were throwing out a bunch of different ideas. This was the one that people actually wanted to do, so we just went with it and we pulled it off.”

A 19-year-old man has been sentenced to four years and 11 months in prison for an aggravated robbery that occurred at Neil Avenue and W. 8th Avenue last November. The robbery added to a string of assaults, muggings and robberies that occurred on Ohio State’s campus last fall. Levi McNair, 19, plead guilty to aggravated robbery and attempted receiving stolen property after OSU Police arrested him on Dec. 10. He was sentenced May 1. Emily Huddleston, public defender representing McNair, was not immediately available for comment Tuesday evening. Another 14-year-old was taken into custody on Dec. 10 and arrested in connection with the Nov. 15 robbery. The victim is a graduate teaching associate at OSU, and he declined to comment. According to the Timely Warning Crime Alert OSU Police sent out on Nov. 15, the robbery occurred at
about 7:14 p.m. and it contained a description of the two males. “The suspects were two AfricanAmerican males under 20 years of age. Both suspects were approximately 6 feet tall with a thin build,” the alert states. The alert said the suspects forcibly removed property from the victim, while implying they had a gun. According to the University police report, the victim’s Dell laptop, his cell phone and a computer mouse were taken during the incident. The laptop was valued at $1,400, his cell phone at $300 and the mouse at $25. University Police detective Pete Dragonette said the victim did not get any of his electronics returned, however his cell phone did play a role in tracking McNair down. Dragonette said McNair used the victim’s cell phone after he had taken it on Nov. 15 to make calls and send text messages. The victim had reported his phone stolen to his phone company and had noticed that the phone was still in use after he had it taken, so he obtained those records and turned them over to police. “From there we were able to

Dan Chapman, redshirt sophomore rifle team captain, said winning the event was a great feeling because his team worked hard and wanted to win. “It feels good. We really took this seriously,” Chapman said. “Not putting other teams down, but some people just come out and blow it off. We really came into this hoping we could win. Not expecting to win, but we’re really happy we did win. It feels good.” The judges for the Buckeyes Got Talent were Scoonie Penn, former OSU men’s basketball player; Antonio Smith, member of 2002 National Championship football team; Mindy Drayer, NBC 4 weekend anchor; Clayton Funk, assistant professor in art education; and Elijah McKnight, a 13-year-old member of Boys and Girls Club of Columbus.

campus Fraternity, student group partner to fight hunger with 24-hour, 6-day barbecue KATIE HIGGINS Lantern reporter higgins.254@osu.edu The Ohio State chapter of Alpha Epsilon Pi is teaming up with the Buckeye Barbeque Qlub and Buckeyes Give Back for their third-annual charity event, the World’s Longest BBQ. The barbecue will be held at the South Wexner Plaza and run 24 hours a day from Tuesday to Sunday. AEPi, the Buckeye Barbeque Qlub and Buckeyes Give Back will donate all of their profits to the Mid-Ohio Foodbank and a few other hunger relief centers. “We’re doing it for the Mid-Ohio Foodbank and a few other hunger alleviation centers that are associated with our nationals,” said Andrew Davis, a second-year in chemical engineering and vice president of AEPi. “We’re going to be out there grilling for five straight days and it’s all for charity.” Food available includes all of the typical barbecue favorites and more. “We always have hot dogs, hamburgers and then we have grilled cheese all the time,” said Sam Mintzer, a second-year in economics and president of AEPi. “Then we also have daily specials for breakfast, lunch, dinner and then we also have late night specials. We’re making grilled pizzas and tacos.” One new addition to the menu is an item called the Score Burger. The Score Burger isn’t a normal menu item, it is a challenge. “We’re calling it a Score Burger and you get a burger, but you can stack as many patties on top of each other as you want,” Mintzer said. “Whoever wins gets a prize and their name as the face of the Score Burger champion.” Mintzer said the person that puts the most patties on a burger and is able to finish it, will win the contest. Mostly everything on the menu is $3 or less. “Everything is between $1 and $3,” Mintzer said. “Three dollars for the specials and $1-$2 for the regular items.” They hope to make about $20,000 just like they did two years ago. “We did $20,000 the first year,” said Andrew Weiner, a fourth-year in accounting and finance. “Last year wasn’t quite as successful. It was more like $12 to $15 (thousand). This year we’re looking for $20 (thousand) at least again.” The barbecue has a budget of $1,000 obtained through grants from OSU, Coca-Cola, the Interfraternity Council, Undergraduate Student Government and the AEPi nationals. In order to make money, the organizers of the

We’ll put it in a deep fryer.” The fraternity, BBQ Qlub, and Buckeyes Give Back are also trying to make the charity a community event by inviting other clubs, charities and individuals to participate. “We’re expecting different appearances from the Juggling Club and Break-Dance Club and the magic club so we want this to be a collective experience and philanthropy event for more than just us,” Weiner said. Mintzer said Buck-I-Guy and City BBQ will also stop by the barbecue, which is an all-day event and is always manned by at least five people. Lunch and dinner hours can be hectic, Weiner said. “It definitely gives you an appreciation for people who normally work in restaurants because there is so much to do and so much demand,” Weiner said. Davis said daylight hours can be chaotic at times, but late night hours have their interesting moments. “I did one of them on a Wednesday night and it was real fun cause when (The O Patio & Pub) lets out at 2 a.m., everyone comes over to the Barbeque and you get a real long line,” Davis said. “It kind of turned into a little party. It was fun.”
WOSU celebrates 90 years on air, welcomes change
LAUREN CLARK Lantern reporter clark.1760@osu.edu Formerly known as WEAO (Willing Eager Athletic Ohio) when it began on April 24, 1922, with the inaugural address by Ohio State President William Oxley Thompson, WOSU Public Media celebrates its 90th anniversary this year and has changed in more ways than just its name. “We are starting tonight the first of a series of programs of entertainment and instruction for the citizens of central Ohio,” Thompson said in his 1922 inaugural address. “These programs will be of the highest type, including music, science and other subjects of popular interest.” Tom Rieland, general manager, said that aside from being the first radio station on the air in Columbus, WEAO was among a handful of pioneer educational radio stations in the country. “The programming was almost all live and included broadcast of lessons by faculty at Ohio State, farm news and musical concerts,” Rieland said. WOSU is comprised of a TV station and two radio stations, which are 89.7 NPR News and Classical 101.
Corinne Gleckler, an intern for WOSU and a second-year in strategic communication and political science, said she thinks WOSU still holds true to what Thompson wanted from the beginning. “I think between NPR 89.7, Classical 101 and WOSU TV, we cover everything that Thompson talked about and everything he envisioned for the station,” Gleckler said. “A lot of it is enriching the lives of central Ohio and I think that was his goal.” John Prosek, TV production manager, said WOSU still provides a variety of programs for their viewers. “People do rely on us for their programming needs, whether it’s for kids programs or how-to’s,” Prosek said. Mike Thompson, WOSU news and public affairs director, said a positive aspect of WOSU is that it provides its viewers with local news. “What separates us from commercial stations is that we don’t cover things like crime. We try to put it in perspective, but we spend most of our time covering things like government, business and education for folks that live and work here,” Mike Thompson said. One program WOSU offers is “Columbus On

Talent from 1A own music for about two years and would like to go to Nashville to pursue a career in country music. He said he was happy with his performance and where he placed in the competition, but was most excited about the fact that he now has a video of himself performing live on stage. “I can’t complain. Just being in the top three is definitely awesome,” Dates said. “I’m just pumped that I got a recording of myself playing live. That’s really all I wanted.” One of the other notable acts of the night was the duet performed by sophomore defenseman Joe Meurer and freshman defenseman Evan Mulchrone of the men’s lacrosse team. The two sang Alicia Keys’ “If I Ain’t Got You,” because Mulchrone said they wanted to choose something they both knew that would be fun for the audience. The decision to perform a song together came

The show airs on Fridays at 8:30 p.m. and repeats Sundays at 11 a.m. “All Sides with Ann Fisher,” host and executive producer, airs weekdays from 10 a.m. to noon and is a public affairs talk show that centers around the top news stories of the day and also trends in areas such as reading, worshiping and many others. “Columbus Neighborhoods,” a program by WOSU and The Columbus Metropolitan Library, offers its viewers an insight to celebrate the neighborhoods that make up Columbus. They also invite others to share their photos, videos, memories and thoughts of their own neighborhood. Rieland said they are heavily focused on “Columbus Neighborhoods,” which has won an Emmy Award in 2011 and many other local honors. “ArtZine” is WOSU’s arts and culture news magazine and features the Columbus area’s top artists and groups. The Columbus Collaborative works on finding partnerships with organizations such as nonprofit, educational and governmental to help create programs to address issues and challenges in the community.

from their past experiences on the lacrosse team and from some of their other team members. “Just me and Joe are always singing along, singing in the locker room and stuff, and so guys just kinda volunteered us to do it,” Mulchrone said. “They pushed us to do it, so we figured why not?” Aaron Craft, sophomore point guard on the men’s basketball team, did not perform but attended the show to support fellow student-athletes. He said it’s nice to see some of the athletes show off talents that are different than what they are known for and for the fans to be able to see that. “I think it’s awesome,” Craft said. “Seeing everyone outside their comfort zone. It was just a lot of fun for us to come in, get outside of our sport and just have some fun with it.” The charity event raised more than $6,400 with proceeds going to the Boys and Girls Club of Columbus. Marcelita Haskins, director of educational services, said that education, in its multiple forms, is the backbone of WOSU. “WOSU covers a quarter of Ohio with service to 349 school districts that enroll over 420,000 students,” Haskins said. Prosek said from 1977 to 1990, WOSU covered all OSU football games on a tape-delayed basis. The games would air on Saturday nights and replay Sunday mornings. They would also air the pregame and halftime band shows, Prosek said. WOSU is currently only involved in Big Ten non-sports programming, Prosek said. “We’re not heavily involved in sports, unfortunately,” Prosek said. “Big Ten has given some great exposure to Ohio State, not just with football and basketball. It’s been a good fit for Ohio State that the Big Ten Network came around.” With or without sports coverage, Rieland said WOSU still has a large audience. “We have about 20,000 members who contribute regularly to support our programming on radio and TV and they provide over $3 million in support to the stations,” Rieland said. Since the station had a large celebration for its 75th anniversary, Rieland said they kept it low-key this year, having a special lunch for staff and volunteers and tours of the station for OSU faculty, staff and students.
Case from 1A said the same thing, identical things,” Joe said. “The school, for rape, thinks a one-year suspension is sufficient enough, which we don’t.” Joe also said he was appalled to find that rape does not constitute a hate crime under OSU policy. “Rape is not considered a hate crime,” Joe said. “How much hate can it take to do that?” State law in Ohio features two separate codes involving hate crimes. The first, ethnic intimidation, is defined in Ohio Revised Code 2927.12 as aggravated menacing, menacing, criminal damaging or endangering, criminal mischief or telecommunications harassment by reason of the race, color, religion or national origin of another person or group of persons. The second, desecration, in ORC 2927.11, covers damage to “a place of worship, its furnishings, or religious artifacts or sacred texts within the place of worship or within the grounds upon which the place of worship is located.” Such laws do not include provisions for reason of gender and do not explicitly include rape or sexual misconduct. But ORC 2907.02 states, “No person shall engage in sexual conduct with another when the offender purposely compels the other person to submit by force or threat of force.” ORC 2907.01 defines sexual conduct as “vaginal intercourse between a male and female; anal intercourse, fellatio, and cunnilingus between persons regardless of sex; and, without privilege to do so, the insertion, however slight, of any part of the body or any instrument, apparatus, or other object into the vaginal or anal opening of another. Penetration, however slight, is sufficient to complete vaginal or anal intercourse.” Jennifer Geller, the hearing officer on this Student Conduct case, is out of the office until Thursday, according to an out-of-office email reply. Andrea Goldblum, director of Student Conduct, declined to comment and directed The Lantern to Dave Isaacs, communications and media relations manager for the Office of Student Life. OSU is prohibited by the Federal Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) from discussing details of the case, but Isaacs issued the following email statement: “We take the issue of sexual assault in our campus community very seriously. Allegations of sexual violence are addressed by campus resources including the office of Student Conduct, which take prompt and direct action to address misconduct. Such action may include interim suspension and other immediate steps when warranted. “Disciplinary sanctions for sexual misconduct may include suspension or permanent dismissal and the majority of cases also include educational sanctions that can help the accused student make better future choices. The university’s action is separate from any criminal investigation of such matters through law enforcement authorities.” No criminal charges have been filed, but the criminal investigation is ongoing, OSU Police Chief Paul Denton said. Denton said it sometimes takes longer to investigate more serious offenses as additional details need to be gathered, but the case “is active and we are pursuing it as quickly as possible.” He could not confirm whether Devin Visconti is a suspect in the criminal case. The University Police report, which was opened later on May 3, lists 17 students as witnesses, as well as the Steeb Hall resident director. One of Devin Visconti’s friends, who requested to remain anonymous but was listed as a witness in the formal police report, said he saw Devin Visconti walking around Steeb Hall shortly after the alleged incident and went to talk to Jane, whom neither Devin Visconti nor his friend had met prior to March 3, to find out what had happened. He said when he spoke to her, she said she did not plan to file criminal charges against Devin Visconti. “I said OK and just said, ‘He’ll come back in the morning when he’s coherent and, like, apologize.’ So she said, ‘OK,’ and that was the end of it,” the friend said. “She told me she didn’t want anything to happen and her RA overheard her talking to someone about it.” Jane said her RA got involved when she overheard it being discussed on the floor. “My RA overheard people in the hall talking about it, so she ended up coming up and writing him up,” Jane said. Her father said emotional reasons were to blame for Jane’s initial hesitation to call police. “They asked my daughter, ‘Do you want to call the police?’ Well, my daughter was in shock,” Joe said. Jane said that although she never saw Devin Visconti’s face, she is not worried that people will question her story. “It’s not a matter of questioning whether it did or didn’t happen. The university accepted that it happened and they said that he was guilty of the charge,” Jane said. Danielle Warner, assistant director at Ohio State Athletics Communications, said Devin Visconti is no longer a member of the wrestling team due to “a coach’s decision.” Warner would not confirm when Devin Visconti was taken off the team or whether the decision was connected to the misconduct hearing.
Robbery from 1A were working closely with Columbus Police due to all the activity on campus, and we recognized him as someone who had recently been arrested,” Dragonette said. “So we knew we were on to something.” Columbus Division of Police had arrested McNair earlier for stealing a cell phone from a store on High Street, Dragonette said. Dragonette said Columbus Police had recognized McNair due to the fluorescent orange color of his tennis shoes, one that coincidentally matched up with the details from the robbery one block from OSU’s campus. “We tried to go down to the Franklin County Jail in hopes of interviewing him,” Dragonette said. “But he chose to decline and not to talk with us.” From there, University Police returned back to
Devin Visconti’s twin brother Kyle Visconti is still a member of the OSU wrestling team. Jane said she feels Devin Visconti’s status as an athlete played a large role in OSU’s decision to suspend him for one year as opposed to dismissing him. “I cannot believe that any university would condone this type of behavior. In my opinion, the university is covering their asses for PR reasons for the athletic department,” Jane said. “We have great sports teams, but at what cost? Female safety?” Joe agreed. “I think it’s a huge reason, because the last thing they want is their athletic program getting another black eye because their football team has had nothing but black eyes in the past year or two, and they don’t want the publicity,” Joe said. President E. Gordon Gee said in a May 4 email to Joe that OSU does not take sexual misconduct lightly and the ruling had nothing to do with Devin Visconti’s status as an athlete. “The University takes sexual assault very seriously, and this is evidenced by Devin’s suspension,” Gee’s email to Joe read. “While I can appreciate that you are not fully satisfied by the results of the hearing, the reality is that Devin is facing very serious consequences. “And to be perfectly clear,” the email continued. “His role as an athlete had absolutely no bearing whatsoever in the decision-making process.” Jane, Joe, other family members and several of her friends and sorority sisters have sent emails to Gee, many of which have gone unreturned, though Gee has responded to at least two of Joe’s emails, Jane said. Both Jane and Joe said they were shocked to learn OSU does not have a zero-tolerance policy regarding sexual misconduct or rape. “They do not have a no-tolerance policy against rape, which is ridiculous,” Jane said. “No teaching institution should accept heinous acts like that.” Isaacs said OSU does not have a mandatory punishment policy for cases of sexual misconduct. Instead, incidents are handled on a case-by-case basis under OSU policy. “Each case is considered in its own merits,” Isaacs said in the email. “Sanctions for sexual misconduct can range widely depending on the nature of the misconduct, from disciplinary probation to permanent dismissal.” During the 2010-2011 academic year, OSU heard 19 sexual misconduct cases, and in the 2009-2010 year, 10 sexual misconduct cases were heard, Isaacs said in his email. One student was dismissed in cases that included sexual misconduct in each of those years. Three rapes have been reported on campus since Jan. 1, according to the University Police log. OSU offers a number of resources for rape victims and victims of sexual violence. “We also provide numerous resources including the Sexual Violence Education and Support Program and support through the Student Wellness Center, Counseling and Consultation Service, Student Health Services, Student Advocacy and University Police, among other departments,” Isaacs said in the email. “We also have a Sexual Violence Assistance Fund, a Sexual Violence Committee that works to educate the campus community about related issues, and a Sexual Violence Consultation Team that meets regularly to ensure that services for students are coordinated and maximally effective.” Jane and her family said they want to see a change in OSU’s sexual misconduct policy. They want OSU to implement a zero-tolerance policy, resulting in automatic dismissal for any student found in violation of sexual misconduct policies. “That’s all we asked is for (Devin) to be dismissed and we would have been happy,” Joe said. “We’d have went away because my daughter wants to do her five years (at OSU), and if he’s only suspended for a year, he has an opportunity to come back. Who says he won’t seek her out and do it again? “If you sexually assault another human being, there should be zero tolerance for that kind of violence,” Joe said. “If we get any good out of this, then a change in policy so someone else doesn’t get hurt. Until someone puts their foot down, (OSU is) not gonna change it.” Jane originally planned to transfer from OSU at the end of the school year but has since decided she will stay at the university. “All of my friends are here … I have my sorority and everything that I’m really into,” Jane said. “I believe that they just want this problem to disappear and by me transferring, there would be like, ‘Oh, she’s not a student here anymore. Why does she care?’” Jane said since the alleged incident, her grades have suffered. She has had trouble focusing and sleeping, and has battled depression, she said. Still, she said despite the emotional struggle, she is trying to stay positive. “Obviously, it’s affecting me greatly … Some days are harder than others. But overall, I’m trying to keep a positive attitude and know that I’m alive and some people don’t survive,” Jane said. “Reading emails or hearing from people saying that I’ve helped them helps me get through this.” JOIN THE CONVERSATION

They contacted them in hopes of getting information about McNair. “That group of acquaintances said McNair and the juvenile had stopped at their house before they had said they were going to campus to get some money, which means they were going to rob somebody,” Dragonette said. McNair’s group of friends were apparently upset with McNair because they had suspected he had stolen property from them, Dragonette said. “We talked with the second group, and they had said McNair and the juvenile came back to that same house after the robbery and had the stolen electronics,” Dragonette said. “Once we had all that, we were able to file warrants for McNair and the juvenile.” Dragonette said McNair and the juvenile ended up confessing to the robbery after they were brought in.

studentvoice NHL dulls other professional sports’ playoffs LANTERN columnist KYLE HENDRICKSON hendrickson.1087@osu.edu
The average sports fan’s list of this country’s greatest sporting events usually includes some combination of the Super Bowl, March Madness, The Masters and the World Series, among others. While I greatly enjoy all of those, I am hard pressed to think of an event I find more exciting than the NHL playoffs. Yes, my favorite team, the New York Rangers, just pulled off one of the more remarkable wins I have ever seen on Monday night, after tying the game up with six seconds remaining, so I’m writing this on a bit of a high. Regardless, the appeal of the playoffs endures whether my team is involved or not. Perhaps that is the greatest testament to hockey. The sport has established its own niche of devoted fans within the
American sporting culture. It will never carry the nationwide appeal of the NFL or MLB. ESPN essentially ignores the sport as they debate the battle for the Washington Redskins third quarterback spot in May. The lack of coverage for hockey used to frustrate me, but I have started to embrace the sport’s underdog status. Just make sure you are taking notice when spring comes and the postseason begins. Quite frankly, there is nothing like the intensity of playoff hockey. Consider the remarkable skill, as these athletes operate better on skates than most of us do on our own two feet. Then there’s the up-and-down, non-stop pace of the sport where each rush could potentially lead to the goal that decides a championship. Each goal brings cause for a genuine celebration and release of emotion that is difficult to find in most other sports. Underdog stories are more likely to be found in hockey. A No. 7 or No. 8 seed beating a No. 1 or No. 2 is usually found at least once a year, only adding to the unpredictable nature. Heading into the playoffs, each team has genuine reason to believe they can win it all. Overtime hockey and its excitement is an experience unlike any other in sports. That is unless your team is involved, in which case it induces near heart-stopping moments as your season teeters on the brink. Although it is no doubt a strenuous exercise in mental

Social networking, celebrity gossip appeal to students’ fast-paced, busy lifestyles that thrive on procrastination What is important? The answer to that seems to change at each age. Whether it’s accomplishing personal goals, earning money or keeping up grades, there is a giant gap between what is important and what we actually do. Why do we know more about athletes, celebrity breakups and makeups, or even the state of our friends rather than what should be our first priority? Very few students keep up with the state of our economy or the next stage of health care reform. It seems almost as if many have developed some form of Attention Deficit Disorder. Our biggest struggle appears to lay in social networks. With smartphones becoming all the rage, the access to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc., is literally within our fingertips. These new ways to communicate have become windows that let your friends and followers peek into your life. Some call it living vicariously, some call it boredom, but as soon as we see these pictures or statuses, we happily forget about the burdens of studying and homework. Instead we agree, disagree or make fun of those around us who seem to either have a worse time than you, share your pain or are doing something more interesting. However, as soon as we snap back to reality, 30 minutes have gone by well wasted. Luckily, we don’t honestly care about Brangelina’s engagement or Tim Tebow’s new football team, but life changes to those who entertain us affects the integrity of show business, which

There is nothing more frustrating than hearing about other students going home at their leisure on the weekends when I only get to make the trip back to my own hometown every break. As a freshman who doesn’t own a car, is forbidden to have one on campus and who is not all that fond of driving, my options for making visits home are incredibly limited. SHAY TROTTER I certainly don’t blame my trotter.35@osu.edu parents, however, for not making regular trips to come and get me for the weekend. Gas prices are outrageous and a six-hour round-trip from Madison, Ohio, northeast of Cleveland twice in just a few days would be brutal for them. The few individuals that I know who are also from my area of Ohio, usually find themselves in the same position. Carpooling rarely works because none of us have the ability to get home in the first place. In my opinion, Ohio State needs to sign a contract for its own system of shuttle buses. It could provide transportation to some of the major Ohio cities that are farther away from Columbus. A large number of students would surely benefit, including those living in border states, as well as individuals from smaller Ohio towns, as they would only need to find a ride from the arrival destination. This concept could even be implemented for academic breaks when transportation from campus is particularly crucial. Tickets to use the bus service would surely need to be reasonably priced, but if enough students take advantage of the opportunity, the cost of a contract for such a transportation system could easily become more affordable for the university. Although shuttle buses such as Greyhound are available in the area, a service specifically partnered with the university would ultimately make travel less stressful for students. Early in the school year it became apparent to me what an excellent opportunity this would be, and the recent Undergraduate Student Government campaigns reflected a similar sentiment. The placement of that very idea in the platform for newly elected USG President Taylor Stepp and Vice President Kevin Arndt opened my eyes to the fact that I am not alone in this situation. Therefore, I believe that the development of a charter bus service through OSU would see a positive response from students, ultimately making transportation more convenient and accessible for those who truly need it.

player having to answer for his actions in a fight during the next game. That is the code of hockey. Each player understands what has to happen. It might be the aspect of the game that is most admirable. Not necessarily fighting, but the fact that the players police themselves on the ice. Disagreements can be settled right there in the moment. In the NBA, for all its good qualities, two players so much as look at each other the wrong way and it leads to technical fouls being handed out. A short scrum in hockey is understood, dealt with, and then each team moves on. Heck, the referees are as likely to curse at the players as the players are at each other. And over the course of a playoff series, the teams are able to build up a genuine sense of animosity toward the opposition, which only adds to the intensity and energy of the series. The Stanley Cup might be the most physically difficult trophy to win. Players play through numerous injuries that only build up as they get deeper into play. The physical toll they must pay for this trophy is extreme, and yet most never take a shift off. It is cliché, but these players truly leave everything they have on the ice. Plus, they do it all with sweet playoff beards. I cannot even say it is my favorite sport. I grew up deeply involved in football and baseball. But if I have to choose one sport’s postseason to watch each year, the choice of the NHL playoffs is clear to me.
KAT NIU niu.57@osu.edu ultimately affects us, even though there is absolutely no connection. Why then are we so captivated by these news stories rather than that of The Wall Street Journal or BBC? The headlines of many gossip articles reveal the meat that grasps our attention, leaving the actual story a recap of the headlines, which consequently suits most attention spans very well. However, the length of many WSJ articles is enough for younger readers to turn the page. Due to today’s fast-paced communication and lifestyle, patience is at a minimum. Lastly, there is a big difference between what we like and what we must do to get there. It takes very little to scroll through Facebook or flip through “Vanity Fair” because we don’t need to do anything to acquire the information. Conversely, reading “TIME Magazine” or The New York Times require a degree of intellectual academia most are only willing to access during class or homework. Take majors and their general education curriculum courses,

discourage our course of action. Similarly, the extent of abstract thought and comprehension is enough to put down the article about health care lobbyists. So in the end, our laziness and lack of patience could be key to curing the hypochondriac ADD we all feel from time to time; our biggest enemy and savior is ultimately ourselves.

Childish Gambino, whose real name is Donald Glover, performed at 8 p.m. May 7 at Lifestyles Communities Pavilion. Aside from a blast of popular culture references, Glover’s rapping style offered audiences a look into his personal life. “There are a lot of rappers out there, but I feel like his brand of rap is actually pretty unique,” said Karthik Hari, a second-year in electrical and computer engineering. “I don’t know how to explain it, but you have all the big name rappers, then you have all the sort of small town guys. (Glover) fills the void somewhere right in the middle. I really like that. It’s like community rap.”
Glover turned off his confident stage presence for “All the Shine,” in which he exposed a more toned-down, self-aware persona. He rapped, “I’m not trying to come hard / I’m trying to come me / That’s why these older songs that I used to make I’d release for free / What’s the point of rap if you can’t be yourself, huh?” A change in Glover’s tone didn’t matter to the audience, though, because they seemed to hang on his every word.

Whitechapel to bring new tone to deathcore in Columbus concert Ally Petrillo Lantern reporter petrillo.3@osu.edu Die-hard Whitechapel fans might not believe their ears when they listen to the band’s latest album. Guitarist Zach Householder said the band shed some of its deathcore reputation for a more mature sound. Columbus fans will have the chance to meet the new sound this week. Whitechapel is scheduled to perform at 6:30 p.m. Saturday at Newport Music Hall Saturday, as a part of its tour, dubbed The Recorruptour, with featured guests Miss May I, After the Burial, Within the Ruins and The Plot In You. The tour is to promote its fourth and self-titled album, scheduled for release June 19 on Metal Blade Records, Householder said. “It’s the most mature album we have done,” Householder said. “This is definitely my favorite so far.” Whitechapel took a different approach to recording this album in

which fuses death metal with metalcore or hardcore punk music. Some Ohio State students said they are looking forward to the album release and are planning on attending Saturday’s show. “Whitechapel has so much energy,” said Paul Newell, a third-year in engineering. “They’re going to have a mosh pit and I know their concert will be intense.”
Householder said although Whitechapel is considered deathcore, the band doesn’t want to be restrained to only this genre of music. “It’s just metal, who cares,” Householder said. “If we are considered deathcore genre, I like to think we step outside of it a lot.” Some OSU students have not yet taken a liking to Whitechapel, but said they might listen to the album anyway. “I’ve heard their music before, and it was a little extreme for me,” said Rebecca Kimmet, a second-year in social work. “If their new album is going to have some softer tones, I would definitely give it a listen.” Householder said the band is aiming to gain more fans regardless of whether they’re fans of deathcore or metal music. “We are going to go in the directions we want to go in as far as growing as a band,” Householder said. “Just sit back and don’t expect the first album. Just expect a more grown-up version of what you love.” Tickets are $16.50 in advance and
Rebecca Black is back causing bleeding ears Think of the most annoying song you’ve ever heard. Did Rebecca Black’s atrocious Internet sensation “Friday” pop into your head? If so, we have something in common, and I have some bad news for you: Black is back. Her first single, “Friday,” with lyrics that explain the days of the week for anyone who is still confused on their order, manages to get stuck in my head at the most inopportune moments, just when I’ve forgotten its existence. A few weeks ago, one of my professors decided it would be appropriate to play the song during a lecture, causing 12 people to flee the room. I, like a fool, stayed behind, and suffered the rest of the day with “It’s Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday” playing on repeat in my mind. The original video was removed from YouTube in June 2011 when it had more than 167 million views. Black, who will turn 15 this June, re-uploaded the video to her personal YouTube account in September and it has since received almost 31 million views. My faith in humanity was restored a little when I noticed the dislikes on her video outweigh the likes about 4:1. What scares me more than Black’s YouTube viewership is

The skies over Lifestyles Communities Pavilion failed to clear, but Childish Gambino continued his exhibition despite the constant heavy rainfall. Donald Glover, who raps under the pseudonym Childish Gambino, brought his nationwide Camp Tour to Columbus Monday night for a concert sponsored by the Ohio Union Activities Board. More than 2,000 students braved the inclement weather to attend the outdoor concert, OUAB concerts chair Courtney Chow said in an email. Perhaps most well-known for his role as Troy Barnes on NBC’s “Community,” Glover is often referenced as Hollywood’s jack-of-all-trades due to his success as an actor, writer, comedian, model and rapper. Monday night, however, Glover threw his other identities aside and was all about hip-hop. Bouncing and lyricizing along with the up-andcoming rapper on popular tracks such as “Bonfire” and “Freaks and Geeks,” the crowd fed off Glover’s enthusiasm, as well as the rain, throughout the set. The crowd’s efforts didn’t go unnoticed. Glover took time out of his set to praise the attendees for maintaining high energy. “On a scale of one to 10, you guys have been a f------ 11,” Glover said. The love appeared to be mutual, especially when Glover played a trifecta of hits, “L.E.S.,” “Heartbeat” and “You See Me” in succession midway through his performance. The majority of songs Glover performed were from his recent album, “Camp,” which was released Nov. 15 and peaked at No. 11 on the Billboard 200 chart. On the album’s first single “Bonfire” Glover rapped, “‘You’re my favorite rapper now’ / Yeah, dude I better be / Or you can f------ kiss my ass / Human Centipede.”
the fact that she’s back. Her new single “Sing It” dropped Tuesday, and the music video premiered exclusively on E! News Monday. Although the vocals aren’t quite as obviously auto-tuned as they were in “Friday,” the lyrics still remind me of cheesy phrases a middle school girl would doodle in the margins of her notebook next to hearts and smiley faces. After an introduction of “woah-oh”s, Black moves back into her signature simple lyric style with lines like, “Sun is out / And the darkness fades / Got my headphones on and I’m under / In a dream but I’m wide awake.” While the song doesn’t dwell on choosing a seat in a car full of 13-year-olds who can somehow drive, or contain anything quite as bad as “Fun, fun, think about fun,” a lyric from “Friday,” the
song definitely does not contain anything of musical substance. In “Sing It,” Black actually uses the phrase “million billion miles,” which makes me cringe, but the repetitive “Live it up, live it up, live it up, yeah!” to conclude the song does make me want to live it up. That is, if turning off the song and never listening to it again constitutes as “living it up.” In reality, I’m sure Black’s music appeals to a generation of middle school girls who love the Disney Channel’s massproduced young “talents.” Black would probably be better off if she was managed by Disney, though, because not even a lack of talent stops a Disney Channel star from being successful. But to give Black some credit, she didn’t go into hiding due to embarrassment following the release of “Friday.” In fact, Black has released two other singles prior to “Sing It,” although this is her first stab at music for 2012. I don’t think Black could ever be considered a serious musician after her debut single made her a mockery following its September 2010 release. Not that many ever questioned whether that was possible.

CD Reviews Mill fills mixtape with heavy beats, energy Kyle henDriCKson Lantern reporter hendrickson.1087@osu.edu Philadelphia’s Meek Mill, whose actual name is Robert Williams, has developed a rather distinct sound at this point in his young career. High energy and heavy beats with braggadocious street-based lyrics fill Mill’s mixtape. Considering the high Internet traffic that came with the release of “Dreamchasers 2” caused the servers of datpiff.com, a website used to release free mixtapes including Mill’s, to crash, it is hard to argue with the formula thus far. The mixtape’s intro track, appropriately named “Intro,” announces its full energy right away with a Mike Tyson quote: “I’m the best ever/I’m the most brutal and vicious and most ruthless champion there’s ever been. There’s no one who can stop me. I’m Alexander, he’s no Alexander...” The Fugees-sampled second track, “Ready or Not,” maintains the “takeover” theme and serves as a standout track. The sample works wonderfully with Mill in a focused state as he rhymes over the driving beat, “The Meek shall inherit the earth / So I’ma own this b---- until I’m buried in dirt.” The message that Mill is

chasing his dreams with determination is evident two tracks in. “Burn,” another standout track includes a strong feature from Big Sean as the two trade verses over a heavy type of beat. “Lean Wit It” provides another example of the lane in which he functions best. Kendrick Lamar is always a welcome addition to a track and “A1 Everything” benefits from his strong work, as usual. The rest of the features are a mixed bag. Overall, Mill combines his signature high energy style with tracks that show depth that I had not heard from him before. The tape could have benefited from fewer tracks which would have streamlined the listen, but as Mill builds toward his debut album this year, he only added to his buzz with this release.
Norah Jones delivers Green caters to country roots with covers heart-breaking hit AMAnDA Abney Lantern reporter abney.14@osu.edu The title of Norah Jones’ new album says it all. “Little Broken Hearts” is Jones’ fifth studio album and an clearly breakup album. The album, produced by Brian “Danger Mouse” Burton, who has worked with U2 and Gnarls Barkley, begins with a whimsical tune called “Good Morning.” The song is slow and melodic, but the lyrics reveal that the album was going to take me through all of the stages of her breakup. Lyrics such as, “Good morning / Why did you do it? / I couldn’t sleep / I knew you were gone,” let me know this was the introduction to her journey of a heartache. “Say Goodbye,” the second song on the album, is surprisingly upbeat considering the context. The song begins with, “Bring me back the good old days / When you left and misbehaved,” which implies there were issues of fidelity in her past relationship. With a slow but catchy tempo, “Little Broken Hearts” has a haunting feel to it. “Travelin’ On” is a song about moving on, which made it one of my favorites on the

album. The combination of her velvet voice, the simple guitar and the sad violin was fantastic. Lyrics such as “Hey I’m too weak / It’s too much to fight off / A past so strong,” makes me think she will always be drawn to this heartbreaker. “Happy Pills” is a pleading song asking her former lover to let her go. “Miriam” packs a strong punch. I pay a lot of attention to the lyrics, and this song names the enemy quite obviously. Lyrics such as, “Miriam / When you were having fun / In my big pretty house / Did you think twice?” stab at her enemy. The darkest songs of the album stood out to me, because the listener feels her pain exuding from her lyrics. This album takes the listener on a journey of heartbreak, but her pain makes for some really powerful music.
Pat Green returned from his mainstream pop-country hiatus to his original country roots with his newest studio album “Songs We Wish We’d Written II.” Green spent the last decade touring with some of the world’s most popular country stars, such as Keith Urban and Kenny Chesney, but before that he was playing to small audiences in college towns. As his fame rose, Green’s music started catering toward mainstream country. “Songs We Wish We’d Written II” is a trip back in time to when Green was playing in bars and small shows with Willie Nelson and Jerry Jeff Walker. The album features covers by artists such as Tom Petty and Collective Soul. He puts his southern country twang to use on many songs that weren’t originally written for country music. The track “Soulshine” shows off the smooth vocals that Green is known for. The song that Warren Haynes originally wrote and The Allman Brothers Band performed carries lyrics that mesh perfectly with Green’s country style. “Let your soul shine / It’s better than sunshine / It’s better than moonshine / Damn sure better than the rain.”

Green shows his true talent by taking already great songs and transforming them into his own. “Songs We Wish We’d Written II” is a genuine country album from a genuine country artist.

Posey ready for what NFL throws his way Dan Hope Lantern reporter hope.46@osu.edu
Dante Lavelli, Paul Warfield, Cris Carter and Santonio Holmes are among many wide receivers whose Ohio State careers led to success in the NFL. On April 27, DeVier Posey became the most recent OSU wide receiver to join that fraternity. He was drafted by the Houston Texans with the 68th overall selection in the 2012 NFL Draft’s third round. Posey was the 10th receiver drafted. He was the second of four Buckeyes drafted, following offensive tackle Mike Adams, who was chosen by the Pittsburgh Steelers with the 56th overall selection. Posey told The Lantern he was excited to be drafted in the third round, but was prepared to be drafted at any time. “I was ready for anything,” Posey said. “I knew that anything could happen. I just felt like I had to mentally prepare myself to go late and mentally prepare myself to go early.” In his four-year career as a Buckeye, Posey caught 136 passes for 1,955 yards and 18 touchdowns. Those numbers rank sixth, eighth and

Buckeye defense strives to be ‘B.I.A.’ Jeff Tyndall Lantern reporter tyndall.10@osu.edu As the Buckeyes football team put spring practice behind them, players and coaches know they have much to improve upon in the coming months before the 2012 season kicks off. Although the team was ruled ineligible for a bowl game this coming season and have no championships to chase, players said that hasn’t made them any less motivated. “All we’re thinking about is beating everybody that comes into the ‘Shoe and wherever we go,” sophomore cornerback Bradley Roby said. “We just want to win every game. That’s our plan.” Players said the initial news of their team’s ineligibility was frustrating, but when word came that new coach Urban Meyer was taking the reigns, their focus began to shift. “Everyone was pretty down about the whole thing,” sophomore cornerback Doran Grant said. “We thought first all that stuff (from the previous season), now this? But Coach Meyer came in and gave us a plan and we just took off with it.” And that plan, according to players, involved winning. One of the newest addition to Ohio State football practices has been the winner and loser days, where every drill is either counted as a win, or a loss for the offense and defense. “It’s really competitive out there,” senior cornerback Travis Howard said. “Our goal is to compete every practice and win every play.” And the increased competition has made an impression on the defensive players, who want to get back to the hard-nosed “Silver Bullet” defense OSU has been known for in years past. “We kind of fell off a bit last year,” Howard said. “But everybody has come back strong, has the right mentality and the right attitude.

We’re getting a lot of plays at game speed, and when that happens, a lot
of fundamentals get exposed. We need to overcome that and sharpen the sword a little bit.” But despite those mistakes, Coombs said he couldn’t be happier with his team. “Nobody is practicing harder than we are,” Coombs said. “I think (the team) just individually and collectively wants to be the best they can be, and that’s just very impressive to me. It makes it very exciting to come to work everyday.” Grant and his teammates have the bar set high. “We’re just trying to be B.I.A.,” he said. “Best in America.”

Women’s Track: Big Ten Championships TBA @ Madison, Wis.
The NBA playoffs are in full swing and Ohio State fans looking for a reason to watch the games need look no further than the four former Buckeyes playing in them. Former OSU basketball players Evan Turner, Mike Conley, Daequan Cook and Kosta Koufos are all playing in this season’s NBA playoffs. Turner plays in the Eastern Conference as a member of the Philadelphia 76ers, while Conley,
Cook and Koufos are in the Western Conference playing for the Memphis Grizzlies, Oklahoma City Thunder and Denver Nuggets, respectively. All four players were recruited by and played for OSU basketball coach Thad Matta. The fact that they’re all vying for the NBA title in the same season speaks loudly of Matta and the OSU basketball program. Conley and Cook were members of the “Thad Five” 2007 NCAA runner-up team. Koufos was named the National Invitation Tournament MVP when the Buckeyes won the tournament in 2008, and Turner became the first OSU player to win the John R. Wooden Award in 2010. Since taking over the basketball program for the 2004-2005 season, Matta has turned the Buckeyes into perennial NCAA championship contenders and brought some of the best basketball talent to Columbus that the program has ever seen. Taking OSU to two Final Fours (2007, 2012), Matta has
won five Big Ten championships (2006, 2007 and 2010-2012) and seen seven of his players drafted into the NBA: Greg Oden (2007), Conley (2007), Cook (2007), Koufos (2008), B.J. Mullens (2009), Turner (2010) and Jon Diebler (2011). That number will likely grow to nine after this season’s NBA draft where it’s expected that former Buckeyes Jared Sullinger and William Buford will be selected. Not including Sullinger, projected as a first-rounder in the 2012 Draft, Matta has produced six first-round draft picks, including the only top two picks in program history with Oden (No. 1 overall) and Turner (No. 2 overall) in their respective drafts. Matta has produced more NBA draft talent in a five-year span from 2007-2011 than Duke’s NCAA men’s all-time winningest coach Mike Krzyzewski (five draft picks), Syracuse’s Jim Boeheim (five), Connecticut’s

Former OSU wide receiver DeVier Posey fields questions from the media after a Nov. 26 game at Michigan. OSU lost, 40-34.
Numbers from 1B seventh respectively among OSU receivers all-time. In his senior season, however, Posey only had 12 receptions for 162 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Posey was only allowed to play in three games last season, as a result of two separate five-game suspensions. Posey was one of five OSU players suspended for the first five games of the 2011 season for trading Buckeyes football memorabilia in exchange for improper benefits in the form of tattoos. He also received a separate five-game suspension for receiving money for work he did not complete during a 2011 summer job. Posey said NFL teams asked him many questions about his suspension, and he answered their questions honestly. “They asked me a lot,” Posey said. “They just really wanted to know what happened, but for the most part, they just wanted to figure out what kind of guy I was, and I feel like I was honest and forthright with everything, I gave them everything I knew.” Texans coach Gary Kubiak said he agreed with Posey’s assessment of his honesty. “He was very forthright about everything that had taken place,” Kubiak said in a press conference April 28. “He told us exactly what he went through.” Kubiak said despite Posey’s past, there are “so many positives” about him. “Obviously, he made a mistake,” Kubiak said. “He wants to move on and he’s got an excellent opportunity with his career.”
Posey said he felt like he “learned a lot” from the suspensions. “I felt like it made me a better person,” Posey said. ”I had to serve my teammates, I had to become more of a leader off the field. It was just a really humbling experience, something I’ll never ever forget.” In drafting Posey, the Texans overlooked his suspensions in favor of his talent. Texans offensive coordinator Rick Dennison spoke about what Posey does well as a wide receiver, and how he can contribute to the team’s offense. “He runs great routes and has good ball skills,” Dennison said in a press conference April 27. “He’s very precise in everything and works hard. He works in the run game. He’s a good-sized guy. He fits with the rest of our guys. We’re trying to supplement our wide receiver group and we think he does a good job with that.” Andre Johnson, a two-time first-team AP All-Pro selection, is among the wide receivers that Posey will play with in Houston. Posey said he is very excited to play with Johnson. “I’m so looking forward to that,” Posey said. “Just to be able to pick Andre Johnson’s brain, and just to learn from him every single day. I’m just really excited for this opportunity.” Posey tweeted from his account, @ DPo8, on Tuesday that he will wear No. 11 on his Texans jersey next season. Kubiak said in his press conference that he expects Posey to be an immediate contributor. “I think he’s got a big-time upside and can help us real quick,” Kubiak said.
Jim Calhoun (four), Michigan State’s Tom Izzo (one) and as much as North Carolina’s Roy Williams (seven). The skill level of the players that Matta has recruited to OSU to play basketball should not be taken lightly and the NBA playoffs are simply a microcosm of the talent Matta is responsible for. In each of the last four NBA seasons, at least two of Matta’s former Buckeyes have played on basketball’s biggest stage, and lately they’ve been making their presence felt. In 2011, Conley helped Memphis upset the top-seeded San Antonio Spurs, becoming only the fourth No. 8 seed to beat a No. 1 seed in the NBA playoffs. He averaged 15.2 points per game, 3.8 rebounds per game and 6.4 assists per game in the 2011 playoffs with the Grizzlies. This season, Conley and Memphis are back in postseason play and as of Tuesday night, he’s averaging 17.5 points, 3.8 rebounds and 7.5 assists through four games in a series with the Los Angeles Clippers. Turner is attempting to match Conley’s and the Grizzlies’ feat from a season ago. Through the first four games of the series between the Sixers and the Chicago Bulls the former OSU Wooden Award winner is averaging 14.0 points per game, 6.3 rebounds per game and 3.8 assists per game. From 1996 to 2005, there were just four Buckeyes to play in an NBA playoff game, Jim Jackson, Lawrence Funderburke, Herb Williams, and Michael Redd. OSU has four former players, all products of Matta, in this season’s playoffs alone. If Sullinger and Buford are selected in the 2012 NBA Draft, nine Buckeyes under Matta will have been drafted in the span of six seasons. To put that into perspective, the previous nine OSU basketball players selected into the NBA draft span across the course of 19 drafts from 1983-2001, with only four first-round selections. As long as Matta continues to roam the sidelines in Columbus, Buckeye fans should expect to have a rooting interest in May and June when the NBA playoffs come around.
