Housing list leaked on Facebook

Under the direction of first-year head coach Luke Fickell, Ohio State football entered 2011 touting the slogan “Shock the world.” The biggest shock of the season so far was the Buckeyes’ Saturday loss and the accompanying uncertainty they now face.

OSU began the season with an impressive Week 1 win against Akron, bolstering the lofty expectations of some in Buckeye Nation. The follow-up performance was a too-close-for-comfort win against in-state rival Toledo.

And then came Saturday’s game against the Miami Hurricanes.

The unranked Hurricanes took control of the battle of embattled programs in the first quarter as senior quarterback Jacory Harris completed two three-yard touchdown passes to sophomore wide receiver Allen Hurns to give Miami a 14-0 lead, and eventually a 24-6 win.

The Miami defense held the then-No. 17-ranked OSU offense down throughout the game, limiting

redshirt senior quarterback Joe Bauserman and true freshman quarterback Braxton Miller to 4-of-18 passing for 35 yards and 209 total yards of offense.

Junior running back Jordan Hall featured on OSU’s first scoring drive of the game, carrying seven times on a 16-play drive that sophomore Drew Basil capped with a 22-yard field goal.

Hall, along with sophomore defensive back Corey Brown and junior defensive back Travis Howard, were each suspended for the Buckeyes’ first two games for receiving white envelopes containing $200 from a university booster at a Feb. 19 charity event in Cleveland.

Daniel Herron, DeVier Posey, Mike Adams and Solomon Thomas will remain suspended until the team’s Oct. 8 game at Nebraska for selling OSU football memorabilia and receiving improper benefits in the form of tattoos.

The mock hurricane siren that called fans to cheer throughout the game at Sun Life Stadium was, perhaps, a harbinger for the Buckeyes.

The official housing email was sent out to the freshman on Aug. 4.

“I never wanted to cause any harm, I was just very excited and wanted everyone else to be excited,” Hodges said.

Greenslade-Smith said that despite the false link being posted, some people knew the link was not accurate.

“There were voices of reason out there knowing that it couldn’t be true because it would be odd that housing would be posted Facebook,” GreensladeSmith said.

About 400 students were affected by the mishap, Greenslade-Smith said. An estimated 6900 new freshman are enrolled for the Columbus campus this

year, up from 6549 new freshman last year, said Gail Capel Stephenoff, director of analysis and reporting.

For the future, the university has learned to time the tests differently by doing them earlier, with the portal down instead of up, and by testing old data from previous years instead of using the current year’s students, Greenslade-Smith said.

“Every year presents its own challenge, we are making every effort to go green, so there are no plans to not do things electronically,” GreensladeSmith said.

Three days before housing assignments were set to go out to incoming freshman, Ohio State’s system was tapped and a link with the wrong housing information was leaked on Facebook.

The housing assignments used to be done by hand in a process that took about six weeks, but in an attempt to go green, OSU’s university residences and dining services made the assignments electronically in an allotted time of two weeks.

“We wanted to perform a test run to make sure the information was accurate,” said Toni Greenslade-Smith, director of housing administration at the university. “We picked a handful of names and loaded the jump data in the test system. During the testing phase, someone logged into the portal and got the jump data.”

The test trial assignment link then got posted on the Ohio State University Class of 2015 Facebook page on Monday, Aug. 1 by incoming freshman Adam Hodges, where everything was taken to be factual.

“I received a Facebook message that had the link to the housing site,” Hodges said. “I knew we would be getting the information sometime soon, so to me the link looked legitimate and had everything I requested.”

The university officials found the Facebook post when a mother of an incoming freshman called asking questions about her daughter’s placement.

“As soon as we found out where the link got posted, we took it down immediately,” GreensladeSmith said.

The housing administration sent out an email to the students that afternoon stating the housing assignments were inaccurate and nothing was official until they received the actual email from the university.

Summertime for college students can include a wide array of activities: a trip to the beach, getting a summer job, studying abroad, days of partying or even taking classes.

As the first day of the school year is quickly approaching, here is a look back at the summer that was, with highlights from the last few months in The Lantern.

Kroger reopening The $10 million Kroger in the Short North opened July 26 after years of planning and implementing

changes suggested by customers, including the addition of the Ohio State University BuckID as a form of payment. The building, which is connected to the sidewalk on High Street, now offers a sushi and salad bar, a bistro, a state liquor store and a wider selection of groceries.

Attempted Kidnapping On Aug. 3, Columbus and OSU Police arrested and charged a man in connection with abduction attempts at knifepoint near Cannon Drive. No injuries were reported. David Phillip Morris, the man charged, was held on bonds totaling $770,000.

Morris was indicted on Aug. 12 on four felony counts, including counts of kidnapping with sexual motivation and attempted kidnapping, both of

which carry repeat offender specifications. He was also charged on counts of abduction and aggravated robbery.

Obama’s visit to Columbus One day after submitting the $447 billion American Jobs Act to Congress, President Barack Obama stopped in Columbus on Sept. 13 to continue his campaign trail to promote the benefits of the new bill. In front of an estimated crowd of 3,250 people, Obama spoke about his proposal, briefly outlining his plan to spend billions on rebuilding and modernizing schools, restructure the country’s

campus 20 years later, agriculture dean retires, will be missed Thailyr S criv ner Lantern reporter scrivner.2@osu.edu Ohio State’s longest-serving dean under President E. Gordon Gee announced his retirement as of Sept. 2 after a 20-year term.

Bobby D. Moser, dean of the College of Food, Agricultural and Environmental Sciences (CFAES) and vice president for agricultural administration, will continue his work throughout the 2011-2012 school year until a replacement is found.

“I will be 68 years old (this week), and that’s a time where I think I need to be moving on and new leadership needs to be coming into the college. I’m ready to do different kinds of things,” Moser said.

The search for a new dean will take place during a year-long transition period, to be completed by spring 2012, said Joseph Alutto, executive vice president and provost for the Office of Acedemic Affairs. It has not been decided whether the hire will be internal or external.

“I think those that have known him know that he’s reached a point in his career that it just makes sense,” Alutto said.

Moser said he will stay and assist a new dean until he feels things are running smoothly, and then he will retire.

During the 20 years Moser has been dean, the college has seen growth and accomplishments, including a reorganization of the college from the College of Agriculture to the CFAES, which expanded areas of education and research.

“That really reflected more on what the college was and what I thought the college would be in the future,” Moser said.

According to an independent Battelle study, the college, including OSU Extension and the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center, adds more than $1 billion to the economy and cost savings of

Ohio and the U.S. through research.

Moser also helped develop an ecological paradigm for the college, integrating areas that would form a sustainable food system for Ohio.

This paradigm includes food security, environmental quality and sustainability, advanced bio-energy and bio-based products in which energy comes from agricultural feed stocks instead of petroleum.

He has been associated with numerous international, national, state-wide and university leadership activities.

Bobby Moser In 2007, he was requested by governor-elect Ted Strickland to serve on the Ohio Department of Agriculture Agency Review to protect producers, businesses and consumers. He also promoted agriculture products nationally and internationally and educated citizens.

His presence on the international level has also included his work on the U.S.-India Knowledge Initiative on Agricultural Education, Teaching, Research, Service and Commercial Linkages to which he was appointed by former President George W. Bush from 2005 to 2009.

The absence of not only his success but also his personality is something faculty members say they are not looking forward to letting go.

“I think what I’ll miss most about him is just who he is. You can always approach Dr. Moser, but usually you didn’t have to approach him. He would approach you,” said Karl Danneberger, horticulture and crop science professor and adviser.

Students are also upset about his future departure as dean for the college.

Andy Vance, dual graduate student in agricultural economics and

public affairs said it’s sad to see him go because of his impact on OSU and the agriculture community. Vance said Moser’s work at OSU has brought much success to Ohio’s industry.

“It’s kind of like how there will never be another Elvis or another Dave Thomas. There will never be another Bobby Moser,” Vance said.

“I feel bad for whoever has to take his place because those are very big shoes to fill.”

Prior to his time as dean, Moser was associate dean for CFAES and director of Ohio Cooperative Extension Service.

“Most importantly, I’m proud of the people in our college — ­ the faculty, staff, students and the quality of the staff that we have in terms of representing us extremely well in this industry,” Moser said.

Moser plans to continue his support of both the college and university as well as spend time with his family, including his wife, two sons and seven grandchildren.

“We plan to stay around and we’re not going anywhere,” Moser said.

Kennedy Commons serves up $12.5M tab for remodel LindsEy Fox Asst. multimedia editor fox.542@osu.edu Nearly a year-and-a-half after Kennedy Commons closed its doors for a total renovation, the redesigned dining option features a new

menu, restaurant and energy-efficient aspects.

The total project budget for Kennedy Commons was more than $12.5 million, according to the Facilities Operations and Development budget.

Karri Benishek, the marketing manager of University Residences and Dining Services, said Kennedy Commons was the first eating option on Ohio State’s campus. She said this historic building was renovated close to its original splendor and will now have a new, all-you-can-eat dining experience for south campus.

Kennedy Commons, located at 251 W. 12th Ave., re-opens with added air conditioning and restored traditional architectural features, Benishek said.

The Kennedy Commons renovation is the first phase of the Food Service Master Plan to renovate traditional dining commons to better accommodate the demands of students, faculty, staff and visitors on campus, Benishek said.

The Kennedy Commons project focused on the interior organization within the complex, Benishek said. The dining areas received a complete interior remodel, as well as an improved serving line,

OSU football program impacted in many areas. modernizing schools, restructure the country’s unemployment insurance and provide tax cuts for small businesses and American families.

Terrelle Pryor drafted Former Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor’s professional career officially began Aug. 22 after his third-round selection in the NFL supplemental draft by the Oakland Raiders.

Pryor, who was ruled eligible for the draft by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, joins former OSU cornerback Chimdi Chekwa in Oakland. Goodell also suspended Pryor from games and practices through week five of the NFL season for making decisions that undermined the integrity of the NFL draft, according to a NFL press release. While Pryor originally said he would not contest the suspension, he had a hearing Thursday to appeal the ban. Pryor officially left the university June 7.

Tressel “retired” Aside from the self-imposed punishments issued by the school, Ohio State changed the terms in which former head coach Jim Tressel left the university. In a seven-page document released July 8 by OSU and signed by both Tressel and President E. Gordon Gee, the terms of Tressel’s departure were changed from resignation to retirement.

NCAA Ruling Ohio State announced its decision to forfeit its share of the Big Ten’s payment for playing in the 2011 Sugar Bowl, athletic director Gene Smith said after OSU’s meeting with the NCAA Committee on infractions. The highly-anticipated meeting took place in the downtown Marriott in Indianapolis Aug. 12. In addition to forfeiting its $388,811 share in the Big Ten’s payment for the Sugar Bowl, OSU has already administered self-imposed penalties, which include vacating the 2010 season and Sugar Bowl victory and a two-year NCAA probationary term.

KENNEDY from 2A

Dining hall

offers a greater selection of food, product. additional seating and new food offerings.

“The biggest change between the old Kennedy and the remodel would be the style in which we serve students of the university,” said Daniel Hall, student manager at Kennedy Commons. “Previously, Kennedy consisted of a limited selection of food items that was on a one-week rotation. Everything was based upon a four-week master static menu, so the first week of food would repeat the fifth week.

The second week would be the same as the sixth week. It was very limiting, considering that there was only five to eight items each week to choose from.”

Now, the food will consistently change each week of the quarter, Hall said. Since the options are constantly changing, the students and guests will have an extensive menu of items to choose from.

“It is no longer a ‘cafeteria.’ It is now, for lack of a better word, a food court. You can walk into Traditions at Kennedy and order a burger from one station that has multiple other choices and come back the next day and order Huevos Rancheros from another station that also has multiple choices,” Hall said.

The old infrastructure has been improved by creating a new entrance and improving the energy efficiency of old systems. Benishek said the renovations attained a certification from Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED). According to their website, LEED certifications are given to construction projects that implement “practical and measurable ‘green’ building design, construction,

operations and maintenance solutions.”

John Church, head of the Kennedy Commons kitchen for the past three years, said the new kitchen design will be more functional for students and guests, “which will provide better service and products.”

Kennedy Commons will also now house the newest retail operation in campus dining services: 12th Avenue Bread Company.

12th Avenue Bread Company features artisanbread-inspired sandwiches, fresh soups, salads, morning quiche and pastries, according to the OSU Student Life website. Inside, there will be indoor tables and booths, along with outdoor seating options, highlighted with bamboo trim work, and olive, persimmon and ivory-colored accents.

“When you spend a lot of time at work, your staff is what makes it worth it,” said Nathan Darder, operations manager of Kennedy Commons. “Over the past weeks they have worked so hard to get everything set up and organized and trained to make sure we are successful. We received the building on Sept. 3 and served our first meal on the 14th. They have been amazing.”

The new Kennedy Commons, with its transition from a single-cafeteria-style serving line to a serving area with multiple stations, will have its soft opening this Tuesday with samplings throughout the week, Benishek said. It will have multiple managers, a full time staff and 200 student-employees, Darder said.

Hours will be Monday through Friday, breakfast from 7:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m., lunch from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and dinner from 4:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. On Saturdays and Sundays The Commons will be open 10:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.

HURRICANES from 1A

Bauserman says Buckeyes refuse to give up.

“(Miami) kept making plays ... and we didn’t execute,” linebacker and game captain Tyler Moeller said. “You can never get too high or never get too low. I know I’m going to fight and I know my teammates are going to fight. We’re not going to give up.”

Bauserman agreed.

“Plain and simple, we didn’t execute,” he said. “We didn’t finish. It was frustrating for everybody.”

Equally shocking to Saturday’s result was the Sunday revelation that OSU had fallen from the Associated Press’ Top 25 poll for the first time in nearly seven years.

Few would have predicted that after the Akron win.

The Buckeyes managed a convincing 42-0 win against the Zips at Ohio Stadium to open their season despite the offseason suspensions and distractions. Junior tight end Jake Stoneburner snagged three touchdowns receptions in the game — a modern-day record for an OSU tight end.

Miller made his debut in Scarlet and Gray, and tossed his first career touchdown pass to fellow freshman Devin Smith.

The Buckeyes ascended to

the No. 15 spot in the Associated Press’ Top 25 poll the following week, and all appeared to be right in Buckeye Nation.

But the team’s steady regression began.

Week 2 saw the Buckeyes battle Mid-American Conference favorite, Toledo. OSU hung on for a 27-22 victory, but only just — John Simon keyed a last-minute defensive stop as the Rockets came to within 16 yards of what would have been the game winning score.

“We knew we had to stop them or they were going to win the game,” Simon said. “The secondary did a great job in coverage and getting me some extra time to get back there.”

Simon hurried sophomore Toledo quarterback Terrance Owens on fourth down, forcing an incomplete pass and a turnover on downs with 48 seconds remaining to clinch the win.

“We knew it was going to be a challenge,” Fickell said after the game. “We’re excited about how the guys fought, how they battled and how they kept their chins up.”

There was no excitement in Columbus, or in the Buckeyes’ locker room, after Saturday’s game against Miami, though.

To be sure, Fickell was always going to be hard-pressed to fill the shoes of former coach Jim Tressel. However, Fickell has contributed to the uncertainty that now surrounds the team.

After beating Akron, Fickell declared that OSU would continue to utilize both Bauserman and Miller at quarterback.

One week later, Miller did not play a single down against Toledo, a decision which Fickell said was a “gut feeling.”

Fickell then said that sophomore running back Carlos Hyde was the team’s starter after narrowly defeating Toledo, though Hall ended up with the start against Miami.

The Buckeyes now face a new challenge: responding to defeat.

“You really find out what kind of character you have from a loss,” Fickell said. “We’re not going to sit here and point fingers at anyone in particular. We know we have to get a lot better. We’ve got to get a lot better as a team.”

The Buckeyes’ (2-1) character will be tested again on Saturday as it closes the non-conference portion of its schedule against Colorado at the ‘Shoe. Kickoff is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. and the game will be televised by ABC.

9A 3A XX

student voice Things I wish I had known as a freshman thomas bradley Campus editor bradley.321@osu.edu Going into my senior year of college, there are a certain number of things I have learned that I wish I knew on this day three years ago.

1. Walk When I came to college, I had a plan to ride my bike everywhere, or if it was a longer trip, ride the CABS buses. Bottom line: Walking is better. When going to class from the dorm rooms to class I can’t think of any walk that is longer than around 15 minutes (sans the Ag. Campus).

With the amount of foot traffic on the sidewalks, roads and paths, there simply is no room to ride your bike comfortably. Also, with a bike there is the guarantee that it will be stolen. WARNING: If you have a bike, buy a U-lock. No matter how tough those chain locks advertise to be, they can be broken in seconds.

My bike was stolen almost five weeks into my freshman year because one day I got lazy. I thought the U-lock was a hassle and I had a chain lock on there anyway, and the next morning the bike was gone.

Buses are OK, but with the amount of time it takes to wait for a bus and the demand for the buses - especially on central campus - walking is faster.

2. Learn the bus routes There are times where busing is a better option.

Late at night, class far away, weather are all legitimate reasons for riding the bus, so make sure you know the bus routes.

Not all bus routes run 24/7. Some run only during the day, others only at night. Some run north, some south, some east, some west. Know where you are

going before you blindly hop on a bus. The “it will get me there eventually” mentality can cost you more than an hour of lost time.

3. Go to class This one might seem obvious for incoming freshman, but skipping a communicatoin 101 lecture at 9:30 in the morning is soon going to become a very real temptation.

“Oh, there are 500 people in that class, he posts the notes online, I’ll just show up for the exams.”

Wrong. This habit can and will lead to bad grades. I don’t care if you show up hungover, wearing pajamas and smelling like tequila, go to class. Take a couple notes, and read the notes online. Learning the material will be a lot easier when you’ve already listened to someone teaching it.

Trust me, when it hits about the third week of the quarter you will start to see the lectures get smaller and smaller. Don’t be one of them.

4. Utilize the RPAC The RPAC - the giant recreation center in the middle of campus - is one of the greatest resources for nearly anything. You can play basketball, volleyball or badminton. You can run on the treadmill, run laps or ride an elliptical. You can play ping-pong, take a yoga class and learn to dance.

The amount of things you can do there is virtually limitless. It is one of the best - if not the best - rec center on any college campus, and to let it go to waste is a shame. You already paid your $82 a quarter to use it.

Oh, and a side note for everyone on the meal plan, the Courtside Cafe in the RPAC has the best food on campus. Hands down.

5. Get out of the bubble I don’t know what it is, but there is almost an unwritten rule that you are not allowed to leave the campus area. Ohio State is located in an awesome

T hey can also use workout equipment and take dance and exercise classes. city with so much to do outside the barrier of Lane and High. There are non-OSU sporting events: the Columbus Blue Jackets, the Columbus Crew and the Columbus Clippers. There is an arts district in the Short North. Go to COSI, go to the Scioto Mile, go to the Lifestyles Community Pavilion for a concert. I really don’t care where you go, just get off of campus every once in a while.

For students: Your BuckID is also a bus pas for all COTA buses in the Columbus area. Again, you already paid for it through your fees, so when you want to leave campus, check the bus schedule. ... and finally.

6. Be social For the freshman reading this, the people you met yesterday when you moved in will be your best friends. Go around your floor today and meet as

many people as you can. Go to the Involvement Fair with them and get as much free stuff as you can as a group.

These people will be your friends for a long time. You will make mistakes together and create memories. While four years seems like a really long time, looking back on my first week at Ohio State, it almost went too fast. Cherish moments with your friends, and if you know a lot of people from high school here, make more friends. Don’t stay in your high school clique. There are literally 100 more things I could put on this list, and if you ask me, I’ll be happy to tell you more. But there are some things you need to learn for yourself. Good luck, and have a great year.

Sincerely, Jami Jurich Editor-in-Chief, The Lantern – The Student Voice of The Ohio State University

As a 1981 alum, I am deeply troubled by the lack of decisive and timely action to fix the problems with the university’s football program.

It is obvious that President Gee and athletic director Gene Smith do not have the integrity required to right this ship. Their belated firing of Coach Tressel and recent problems with Jordan Hall and friends show that they don’t have a clue about what is needed.

I’ve never been so disgusted with Ohio State. It would be great to again be proud of the once-great university, but it is going take someone with leadership, backbone and integrity. The current Trustees apparently lack these qualities.

What is needed from the top is a zero tolerance policy on integrity issues. This means looking into the background of prospective recruits and passing on any who show the least proclivity for trading their reputation and that of Ohio State for $200 or a few silly tattoos.

If a rascal sneaks in, they need to be immediately dismissed from the team when it is clear they committed an NCAA infraction. Period. It is much better to lose a few football games than to further degrade our school’s reputation.

Sincerely, David Winters

Letter to the editor: Time to give NCAA a ‘pink slip’

CODY COUSINO / Photo editor

OS U corner back Bradley R oby (25) tries to tackle T oledo running back Adonis T homas (24) in an NCAA football game held at Ohio Stadium in Columbus, Ohio, on Saturday, Sept.10, 2011.

4A

The NCAA has not kept up with the changing times for college athletes and the responsibilities they have in the total picture with regard to training, practice, playing time, academic classes and study time. These activities require upwards of 50 hours per week. These athletes have no time to perform the duties of a job so they may earn funds for a normal college life in what free time they have.

Slavery was outlawed in 1865 in the United States, yet the NCAA uses the athlete as its slave in raising the money directly or indirectly that funds the NCAA. The NCAA does not allow players to sell their own property. If they do, they are penalized, even if the funds are used for normal “college expenses!” If they get a discount on something, this is a crime and will bring a penalty.

Yet, the funds for the NCAA is earned by the sweat of the collegiate athlete. Do the “white collars” of the NCAA draw salaries of $300,000 and more, have enormous expense accounts, pay big legal expenses to their attorneys, stay in five-star luxury hotels, eat at the four-star restaurants, fly first class, have furnished vehicles as well as many other fringe benefits? I cannot find an audited report to verify these assumptions as those reports seem to be private.

Are they always consistent in their decisions? I cannot find a penalty for the coach from USC that resigned and went to the Seattle Seahawks when their findings were released or in the case at Tennessee. Yet, OSU’s Tressel, who also resigned, is told he cannot coach in the NFL for a period of time. I didn’t realize the “white collars” of the NCAA were in charge of the NFL also. I also didn’t know the NCAA was in charge of eligibility for players in the NFL who have left college until Terrelle Pryor was told he couldn’t play for a number of games. And the players from the University of Miami penalized for “association?” They now tell you who to associate with? WHO IS POLICING THE NCAA? I also can’t believe the commissioner of the NFL doesn’t know who his boss is and where his pay comes from!

As for discounts on tattoos, I would like to see the files where they have proof that 2500 collegiate athletes paid FULL PRICE for the ones you see on television. I wonder if any of the NCAA staff ever gets a discount. (I guess they don’t need it.)

Do you ever wonder why you hear little about basketball violations, but the football violations (of course, football is the big money) are all over the news. How much do you hear about violations in the women’s sports? What about violations in the smaller schools? Many questions go unanswered. It is time they are evaluated and answered!

I am sure the university staffs that oversee their athletic departments have the personnel with the ability to arrange their own athletic schedules, negotiate their own TV contracts, form an adequate oversight committee with today’s needs in mind for athletes (and pay them minimum wage for their time in athletic responsibilities), schedule their own tournaments, determine the value of playoffs, schedule bowls, handle fiscal arrangements, etc.

They might have extra funds if they didn’t have to support the NCAA. In summation, the NCAA has failed to keep up with the needs of today’s collegiate athletes, have overstepped their bounds in trying to run the NFL and my personal opinion says it is time to give the NCAA PINK SLIPS. While working as an administrator in education, I heard one collegiate player say, “you need to know the rules,” and if someone wants to help, give them one of your deposit slips with cash line marked (as it is tough to follow cash) and anything else must go to your parents and they can get it to you. It pays to know the angles.

Pop band Fool’s Gold is scheduled to perform at Skully’s Music Diner Monday at 7 p.m. with another human,” he said. “You feel ... very thankful.”

The connection the band feels to its audiences is something they want to expand across the globe, Pesacov said. They have played in the U.S. and in Europe numerous times but would love to go to Africa, Latin America and especially Asia.

“It’s one of our dreams,” he said. “We just love to play for other people in different parts of the world.”

Channeling different cultures of the world is something the band has experience with. Their self-titled debut partially contained Hebrew lyrics,

something that tied Top to of Israel, the country in which he was born.

Since then, life on the road has helped the band evolve into what they are today, Pesacov said.

“We’ve grown so much as musicians and as people after touring for two years straight,” Pesacov said. “Downsizing the band allowed for so much more clarity in the music we make.”

Despite the group’s downsizing, the band has no plans to slow down. Fool’s Gold is set to continue their tour in both the U.S. and Europe.

19 A look back at the summer in entertainment news

Buck-i-Frenzy 11 a.m. @ RPAC

WEDNESDAY

It’s not another case of pyrite, the mineral often referred to as “fool’s gold.” This time, it’s real.

Los Angeles-based pop band Fool’s Gold is bringing its talents to Skully’s Music Diner Monday at 7 p.m. to celebrate the recent release of the band’s second album, “Leave No Trace.”

The band got its start when lead singer/bassist Luke Top and lead guitarist Lewis Pesacov came together to create music that boasted their mutual love for African music and 80s-in° uenced pop.

The forming of the rest of the band had an “organic, open-ended” start, Pesacov told The Lantern.

“Luke and I had a concept. We just decided ... anyone that wanted to play with us could play with us,” he said. “Before we knew it, there were like, 15 people hanging out with us (and) playing with us.

That’s what it was like for a long time.”

The band ÿnally settled on a ÿve-man lineup in December, choosing the members that had been the most “vocal” on the tours, Pesacov said.

After settling on who would perform onstage, the band now looks to people offstage to keep them going.

“We’re inspired by performing live in front of an audience,” Pesacov said. “The band ... creates this musical energy, and we give it to them, and then they can kick it in reverse. It creates this feedback where the more energy we give them, the more energy they give us, and the whole thing gets better and better.

“It’s all very memorable when you can connect

@TheLanternArts

Campus is a dark and desolate place over the summer, so chances are if you weren’t reading The Lantern, you had no idea what was happening in the entertainment world.

Worry not. We’re here to clue you in.

July 15 The ÿnal cinematic installment of the Harry Potter franchise debuted and did a number on the box ofÿce, setting the all-time opening weekend record. In fact, screens at AMC Lennox Town Center 24 and Gateway Film Center were almost all sold out for the ÿrst midnight screenings.

What’s more, adult college students dressed up like wizards at these screenings in a disconcerting, cultlike fashion, and we have photographic evidence.

July 26 We learned that Dublin resident and Ohio State alumnus Casey Putsch built a street-legal Batmobile that runs off a turbine engine from a

decommissioned military helicopter, which is believed to be the ÿrst of its kind in the world. If that’s not cool, I don’t know what is.

Aug. 8 “Watch the Throne,” the muchawaited collaboration project between hip-hop moguls Jay-Z and Kanye West, was ÿnally released, and the Internet nearly exploded in celebration. The album was met with mixed reviews, but when The Lantern compared it to “Hell: The Sequel,” a similar project from Eminem and Royce da 5’9”, a ° urry of angry hip-hop connoisseurs took issue with our assertion that Mr. 5’9” is not as talented as Eminem, Jay-Z or Kanye West.

Aug. 20 Britney Spears is back, and after a summer of successful pop hits and the release of her latest album, “Femme Fatale,” on March 25, Spears landed in Nationwide Arena as part of her worldwide tour. Seats at Nationwide went largely unÿlled, however. Was it because the tour stop was added late (it was added in June) or was it because her penchant for lip-synching in concert makes

her a gloriÿed Milli Vanilli? We might never know.

Also on Aug. 20, Kim Kardashian and NBA player Kris Humphries got married. If you’re compelled to know every single detail of how the wedding went down, E! will be broadcasting two, two-hour episodes of wedding specials on Oct. 9 and Oct. 10.

Aug. 25 Lil Wayne’s album, “Tha Carter IV,” leaked a few days ahead of its release. That wasn’t what was newsworthy about it, though. When listeners came across the track “It’s Good,” Twitter seemingly burst into ° ames at a lyric where Wayne takes a shot at Jay-Z. The Lantern weighed in on the potential feud and decided that it’s actually Wayne who has 99 problems, with one being that he’s not as good as Jay-Z. Aug. 28 Though without scandal for seemingly one of the ÿrst years ever, the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards was still monstrous, featuring performances from and tributes to practically every big name in pop music. The hook for this year’s

awards was performances from Lady Gaga and Lil Wayne and a tribute to Britney Spears, but all fell ° at in one way or another. Gaga’s guise as Jo Calderone was far too played out, Spears’ tribute was none too rousing and Lil Wayne performed a track from his new album so indecipherable after censorship it somehow distracted viewers from the fact that he was wearing zebra-print jeggings.

Sept. 1 The Ohio Union Activities Board made an unexpected announcement: Smash Mouth and Boyz II Men will perform at this year’s Welcome Week concert, scheduled for Tuesday at 5 p.m. on the RPAC North Lawn. OUAB describes the show as “throwback,” but reaction students on Facebook and Twitter showed that some weren’t impressed. For example, Facebook user Dylan Two-Scoops Bateman commented on The Lantern’s Facebook link to the story saying, “I think it’s a great idea ÿfteen years ago.” OUAB also announced that they will be bringing comedian Seth Meyers (“Saturday Night Live”), actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt (“Inception”) and musician Matisyahu to campus this quarter.

Deschanel’s old schtick good enough in new show ALEX ANTONETZ Arts editor antonetz.3@osu.edu With Zooey Deschanel (“(500) Days of Summer”) as the lead in, well, anything, quirkiness is sure to be present. “New Girl,” the new series from FOX, makes no qualms about that.

Deschanel plays the off-kilter Jess Day, who ÿnds out her boyfriend cheated on her. After the breakup, she moves out of her old apartment and moves in with three guys: Nick (Jake Johnson), a bartender, Schmidt (Max Greenÿeld), whose womanizing ways lead the roommates to create a “douchebag jar,” to which Schmidt must donate $1 every time he acts like a douchebag, and Coach (Damon Wayans Jr., who will only appear in the pilot), an intense personal trainer who has issues communicating with women.

“New Girl” doesn’t try to make Deschanel do something unexpected. She wears ° annel, thickframed glasses and often partakes in socially unacceptable behavior. She sobs to “Dirty Dancing,” uses terribly awkward pickup lines and takes showers with her clothes on.

In short, Deschanel is seemingly playing herself, and that’s OK. But for a show on network television, appealing to the masses might be a bit of a worry.

There’s nothing about “New Girl” that really shouts mass appeal. I have no doubt many viewers will take issue with the show’s wackiness, which is a shame because the show really has its moments.

It’s never anything extravagant, but the zaniness of Deschanel’s character might turn off some more closed-minded viewers.

“New Girl” is at its best when Deschanel has the reigns. She makes the show quite charming,

Courtesy of Fox

Zooey Deschanel, Jake Johnson, Lamorne Morris (who is replacing Damon Wayans Jr.) and Max Greenfield star in the new series ‘New Girl,’ scheduled to air Tuesday at 9 p.m. on Fox. but even so, it’s not likely that audiences will care much if they can’t tolerate the nature of the show’s comedy.

Despite Deschanel’s work, the pilot certainly felt like a pilot. It feels like the show hasn’t yet truly found its identity, but that can be forgiven. It also never feels like there is any real chemistry between the show’s four leads, despite the fact that the episode wraps on a fairly touching note. But then again, with a show built around a character who’s purposefully awkward, who’s to say the chemistry

between the characters isn’t meant to feel the same way?

There’s a chance “New Girl” could ÿnd a niche audience as its charm and awkward humor makes it worth a watch. Sadly, it feels as if it might be a show better ÿt for the more nuanced viewers of cable instead.

The series premiere of “New Girl” is set to air Tuesday at 9 p.m. on Fox. Verdict: B+

Blame Pryor for OSU’s Miami misfortune

former OSu quarterback T errelle Pryor when he did more than just tweet about Buckeye football.

FRIDAY field Hockey v. Michigan 3pm @ Columbus, Ohio

As my excitement for Saturday’s match-up between Ohio State and Miami quickly turned into the realization that I was witnessing the inevitable on-field destruction of the OSU program, I frantically searched for someone to blame for the Buckeyes’ ever-apparent ineptness.

I wanted to blame Joe Bauserman for throwing balls that had more movement than any of his pitches in minor league baseball did. I wanted to blame Braxton Miller for only being 18 and not being ready for a game of this magnitude. I wanted to blame Jake Stoneburner for dropping a would-be touchdown catch in the middle of the end zone.

And I wanted to blame Luke Fickell for being in way over his head.

But as I turned to Twitter to vent about things that I can’t control, I found the answer to the first person who deserves to be blamed for the disaster that we saw on Saturday

and future misfortunes that the 2011 season may hold for the Buckeyes.

“Buckeyes have to give football to Jordan Hall,” former OSU quarterback Terrelle Pryor posted to his Twitter account midway through the Buckeyes’ beat down in Miami.

To steal a phrase from Seth Myers and Amy Poehler’s Weekend Update, really Terrelle Pryor? REALLY? That’s not to say that Pryor wasn’t right, but the mere fact that he was showing up in my Twitter timeline and not in Sun Life Stadium in Miami on Saturday made it all the more clear for me as to who OSU fans have to blame for Saturday’s loss.

This season was supposed to be the culmination of the careers of one of the mostly highlytouted recruiting classes in OSU history, one which was headlined by Pryor.

But instead of leading the Buckeyes to any BCS championship games, Pryor led his teammates into the Fine Line Ink tattoo parlor, where they received impermissible benefits and started the biggest scandal in program history, which culminated with Pryor bolting for the NFL and Jim Tressel resigning.

That’s not to say that suspended Buckeyes Mike Adams, Dan “Boom” Herron, DeVier Posey and Solomon Thomas aren’t also to blame for

the current mess that OSU finds itself in, both on and off the field. But not only did they stick it out in Columbus instead of leaving to play professionally; to be honest, they just don’t have the same effect on the program that a quarterback does.

After taking over for Todd Boeckman in the fourth game of the 2008 season, Pryor was set to be a four-year starter at OSU. Bauserman was never supposed to play a meaningful snap for the Buckeyes, and Miller was never supposed to play one so early in his career.

But thanks to the current mess that Pryor helped create, OSU’s current quarterbacks find themselves in a playing situation being drastically mishandled by a head coach who was never supposed to have a job of this magnitude this early in his career.

To anyone who watched Saturday’s game, it was clear that the Buckeyes’ biggest issue was the inconsistent play and playing time of its quarterbacks. But before you blame the players and the coaches who have been thrust into roles that none of them are prepared for, take a look at who got them into this mess. He’s the one running his mouth in 140-characters-or-less.

Men’s soccer shuts out Hartwick, falls to Coastal Carolina

Women’s Volleyball v. Iowa 7pm @ Iowa City, Iowa Women’s Cross Country: Toledo InterRegional Bubble Buster All Day @ Toledo, Ohio.

Jay ClOuSe Lantern reporter Clouse.86@osu.edu The Ohio State men’s soccer team traveled to Conway, S.C., this weekend for the Coastal Carolina Tournament and left with one win and one loss.

Three OSU players, junior forward Chris Hegngi, sophomore forward Omar Vallejo and junior goalkeeper

Matt Lampson, were named to the 2011 Coastal Carolina Tournament’s All-Tournament Team as the Buckeyes posted a 1-1 record over the weekend.

The 24th-ranked Buckeyes impressed during their 3-0 victory against Hartwick College to open the tournament Friday evening, running the team’s winning streak to four.

Junior midfielder Austin McAnena opened the scoring for OSU with a sixth-minute goal off an assist from

freshman forward Kenny Cunningham. Hegngi then tallied for OSU in the eighth minute. Hegngi added a second goal in the 67th minute to become the first OSU player to score two goals in a contest since former Buckeye Konrad Warzycha scored did it on Sep. 5, 2010, against Buffalo.

Lampson made four saves to preserve the shutout for OSU. The Buckeyes’ winning streak was then snapped Sunday afternoon by tournament host Coastal Carolina

University. Junior forward and tournament offensive MVP Ashton Bennett scored both goals for the Chanticleers in the 33rd and 64th minutes.

OSU (4-2-1) will next face the No. 3-ranked Louisville Cardinals on Wednesday at 7 p.m. at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium.

Buckeye breakdown Scarlet and Gray are blown away in Miami matchup

Ohio State football dropped a 24-6 decision against the Miami Hurricanes (2-1) on Saturday at Sun Life Stadium in Miami. The Buckeyes were held to just six points on two field goals by sophomore kicker Drew Basil, as well as 209 total yards of offense. This weekend’s result also had historic consequences for OSU’s status as a ranked team.

The Good On a night when almost nothing went right, junior running back Jordan Hall provided a spark for the Buckeyes, rushing for 87 yards on 14 carries. Including his one reception and two punt returns, Hall amassed 123 all-purpose yards.

The special teams unit also showed signs of improvement.

Redshirt junior punter Ben Buchanan averaged 46.5 yards on six punts, including a career-long 60-yard punt. Buchanan let only one punt roll into the end zone for a touch-back and also pinned Miami inside its own 20-yard line three times.

Sophomore kicker Drew Basil entered the Miami game 0-for-2 on field goal attempts through OSU’s first two games, but nailed his two short-range attempts on Saturday. Unfortunately for the Buckeyes, Basil’s field goals were their only points of the contest.

The Bad From its first offensive play of the game to its last, Miami ran all over the Buckeyes — literally.

The Ugly OSU couldn’t keep its offense on the field and Miami dominated possession in the fourth quarter, eliminating any chance of a comeback. The Hurricanes held the ball for 11:16 against the Buckeyes’ 3:44 of possession.

The Consequence After beginning the season as the No. 18-ranked team the in the Associated Press’ Top 25 poll and ascending to the No. 15 spot after their Sep. 3 win against Akron, the Buckeyes are now unranked for the first time since 2004.

Saturday’s loss to Miami resulted in an unceremonious end to OSU’s seven-year stay in the poll, which was the longest active streak in nation.

PAT BRENNAN / Sports editor CHRIS POCHE / Design editor

Redshirt sophomore running back Lamar Miller jumpstarted the Hurricane’s opening drive with a 54-yard run. The ‘Canes scored three plays later.

Then, with 33 seconds remaining in the game, junior running back Mike James iced the Hurricanes’ victory with a 1-yard touchdown run.

All told, OSU allowed 240 yards on the ground to Miami.

sports Women’s soccer continues search for win No. 200 after draw with Gophers Jeff Tynd all For The Lantern tyndall.10@osu.edu The No.25-ranked Ohio State women’s soccer team is still sitting on 199 wins in its program history.

OSU opened Big Ten conference play on the road Sunday with a 1-1 draw against the Minnesota Golden Gophers at Elizabeth Lyle Robbie Stadium.

Minnesota senior midfielder Shari Eckstrom scored in the 32nd minute to put the Gophers up, 1-0. Eckstrom gained control of the ball and fired a shot from outside OSU’s penalty area to the right side OSU senior goalkeeper Katie Baumgardner.

OSU sophomore midfielder Danica Wu delivered the equalizer in the 82nd minute after firing a shot on the run that bounced off of the crossbar and into the goal.

The teams then played 20 minutes of extra time and although the Buckeyes took three corner kicks, the teams couldn’t separate themselves.

The Buckeyes (5-3-1) will try for win No. 200 for the third time on Friday against Illinois at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium. First kick is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.

Jordan Hall, not Bauserman or Miller, the answer for struggling Buckeyes’ offense

THOMAS BRADLEY / Campus editor

Ohio State lacks playmakers this year. That much is true.

But if we can take anything positive away from OSU's 24-6 loss at the hands of Miami (Fla.) Saturday night, it's that running back Jordan Hall is the spark the Buckeye offense needs.

The game looked familiar in many respects. Miami quarterback Jacory Harris further displayed his penchant for throwing to scarlet and gray jerseys, adding two more interceptions to the four he tossed against OSU in Ohio Stadium last year Like 2004 and 2008, the dualquarterback system reared its

of successful Buckeye quarterbacks of recent lore, including Terrelle Pryor and Heismanwinner Troy Smith. But after Miller threw a pick on his first pass attempt, fumbled the ball away in a crucial fourth-quarter drive and consistently missed targets, it doesn't seem as if he's the answer quite yet. A Miller-Hall duo in the backfield would give opposing defenses headaches.

Until Bauserman can become an air threat, the offense is going to hinge on the running game.

Opposing defenses have no reason to be scared of the Buckeye "O" right now. The coaches are going to fall back on the ground game, of course, until Bauserman can establish some semblance of a passing game to open up the running lanes.

Heck, even the trusty special teams have been unusually inconsistent. Kicker Drew Basil is only a measly (by OSU's standards) 2-4 on field goal attempts so far this season.

With Bauserman launching every red zone pass into the 12th row, get used to a steady dose of Jordan Hall, ladies and gentlemen.

ugly head, with freshman Braxton Miller looking shaky at best and Joe Bauserman throwing ball after ball into the stands.

Hall, playing for the first time this season after being suspended two games for receiving $200 from a booster, ran at will against the Canes' defense, tallying 87 yards on 14 carries.

Hall was the only threat OSU could muster, especially with Bauserman and Miller unable to succeed through the air.

The OSU offense finished with 209 yards of offense: 174 yards on the ground off 37 carries and going 4-18 in the air for a pathetic 35 yards passing.

Sixty-four of those rush yards came on a 16-play drive in the second quarter, all of which were on the ground. Hall gained 26 yards and Carlos Hyde added 35.

Three yards and a cloud of dust. It's boring but with a squad lacking much of an offensive identity, it might be OSU's last best hope to win this year.

Fans have long been clamoring to get Miller snaps under center. After Bauserman got the starting gig, I could understand why, as he doesn't fit the mold
