DRAF7 Dwayne Haskins to enter the 2019 NFL Draft WYATT CROSHER Assistant Sports Editor crosher.1@osu.edu In his first season as a starter for Ohio State, redshirt sophomore quarterback Dwayne Haskins cemented his legacy as one of the best quarterbacks the program has ever had. And after just one season as starter, Haskins’ time as a Buckeye is officially finished. On Monday, Haskins announced on Twitter he would forgo his final two seasons of eligibility to declare for the 2019 NFL Draft. In the days before the Rose Bowl, then-offensive coordinator Ryan Day said he did believe Haskins was ready to make that jump to the professional level. “You reflect on the whole season, where it’s at, how far he’s come. I do think that he has a chance to be really successful in the NFL,” Day said. “When you look at what he’s done this season, it’s been very, very impressive.” In 14 games as a starter, Haskins threw for 4,831 yards and 50 touchdowns, both Big Ten records for a single season. The redshirt sophomore broke the sin-

gle-game passing yards record for Ohio State, throwing for 470 yards against Purdue, then topping his own record with 499 against Northwestern. The record-breaking numbers were enough for Haskins to get invited as a Heisman Trophy finalist, where he ultimately finished third. In his final game for Ohio State, the Rose Bowl matchup against Washington, Haskins completed 25-of-37 passes for 251 yards and three touchdowns “A lot of people dream about playing in DRAFT CONTINUES ON 7

Did Haskins have the best season of any Ohio State quarterback? WYATT CROSHER Assistant Sports Editor crosher.1@osu.edu After one season as the starter for Ohio State, redshirt sophomore quarterback Dwayne Haskins is wrapping up his career as a Buckeye. On Monday, Haskins announced he will be entering the 2019 NFL Draft, finishing his collegiate career with 5,396 passing yards and 58 total touchdowns. The vast majority of those numbers came in his second year, during which he threw for 4,831 yards and 50 touchdowns, breaking single-season Big Ten records for

total yards and total touchdowns and finishing third in Heisman voting. “I want to be one of the best to ever do it when I get done playing here at this university,” Haskins said. So was he? After breaking every single-season passing record the program had to offer, it seems impossible to deny he is one of the best. But did he have the best season of any quarterback in the program’s history? When looking at the statistics and accolades, two seasons, both of which came this century, stand as the major competition. QUARTERBACK CONTINUES ON 7

Ohio State will continue to improve its mental health resources throughout the spring semester.

In September, Ohio State President Michael Drake’s mental health task force released its final recommendations for improvements to the university’s mental health resources, with some changes already made during the fall semester. Drake said in an interview with The Lantern that he met with the members of the mental health task force in October to begin a new phase of work with a group he called the “implementation force.” “The implementation team is meeting weekly and continuing to make progress,” Ben Johnson, a spokesman for the university, said in a statement. “Many of the recommendations require additional research, planning and/or new systems or technology, so the team will work together for at least 18 months, and many of the recommendations will take some time to implement.”

Since then, improvements have consisted of hiring new counselors within campus mental health services, reviewing safety enhancements to campus parking garages, introducing apps that help students cope with stress and Undergraduate Student Government gauging student perception of mental health services available on campus. With some improvements underway, there are more set to come for spring semester and others that have not yet been addressed. What improvements have been made? Drake said in an interview with The Lantern that three additional counselors were hired in the Counseling and Consultation Service over the summer. At a Board of Trustees meeting in November, USG President Shamina Merchant gave an update on the progress of the task force. She said the counselors are currently in the hiring process and should be added by the end of the fall semester. Johnson said two of the new counselors started work at the beginning of January. One counselor is MENTAL HEALTH CONTINUES ON 6

New year, same app, better updates ZACH VARDA Campus Editor varda.6@osu.edu A new semester brings a new look for the Ohio State app after changes were implemented while students enjoyed their winter break. The changes will help with student and staff accessibility on campus, keeping students up to date while also setting up the app for more changes in the future. For starters, students can now look for a content feed on their Ohio State app, a feature brought over from the Discover app that was implemented along with the Digital Flagship initiative in 2017 for incoming freshmen. Benjamin Hancock, director of application development at Ohio State, said more than 160 pieces of content have been made for the Discover app since its implementation. “That was an effort to take the work we did for the freshmen students — they’ve been putting a lot of time into that content — and make it available for everyone,” he said. “You don’t wanna spend all that time doing all that content and not make it available for everyone.” To ease campus navigation, the app now contains a feature that shows the location of gender-inclusive bathrooms and lactation rooms. This change was driven by a request from the Office of Student Life, as well as the Title IX office, Hancock said. “They reached out and asked, ‘Hey, can we include these?’ and it turned out to be really easy so we said, ‘Heck yeah,’” Hancock said. “Any time we can make it more comfortable for people, we do, and the lactation rooms were similar; that’s a

little more staff- and faculty-focused but it impacts some students as well.” The final immediate change is a new feature that will notify students when a waitlisted class has been added to their schedule. “If you’re on a waitlist now, and that class gets added, you get a push notification now, whereas before you’d have to log in to BuckeyeLink and see if this class was added or if it showed up on your schedule, but you wouldn’t get a proactive notification,” Hancock said. There was also plenty of work put in behind the scenes to ensure future changes to the app go over smoothly. Changes already in the works come from student feedback and share a common theme — students do not like to wait. “We want to make laundry availability visible for the students, especially now that there are first- and second-year students on

campus. That’s become an inconvenience for the students so we want to try to help with that,” Hancock said. “We’re looking at library room reservations, probably for Thompson and 18th Avenue Library first.” These are not the only locations students are experiencing wait times and lines they would rather avoid, for students hitting the gym or looking for a meal have also asked

for updates on capacity. “One of the most common requests we get — from USG and feedback in the app — people want to know how busy dining locations are and they want to know how busy the RPAC or the ARC is,” Hancock said. Hancock said providing availability for APP CONTINUES ON 3

Campus midterm voter turnout increases by more than 10 percent SAM RAUDINS Social Media Editor raudins.3@osu.edu Election Day was characterized by a push for people between the ages of 18 and 24 to vote, specifically on college campuses. Following efforts to mobilize the college student vote, the Ohio State midterm elections turnout rate increased by more than 10 percent from 2014-18. According to the National Study of Learning, Voting and Engagement on Ohio State’s Columbus campus, 21.8 percent of registered student voters cast a ballot in the 2014 midterm elections. A Lantern analysis of data from the Franklin County Board of Elections showed voter turnout in Ohio State-area precincts ranged from 25 to 51 percent in 2018, with voter turnout in such precincts averaging about 35 percent. Paul Beck, professor emeritus of political science, said voter turnout was higher than previous years, with 2014 being a low year in terms of youth voter turnout. According to the Franklin County Board of Elections’ official results from 2014-18, precinct 41-G, which is home to the

Park-Stradley and Smith-Steeb residence halls, saw an increase in voter turnout from 0.42 to 30 percent. Precinct 41-D, which contains Nosker House and Busch House, had an increase in voter turnout from 0.11 to 34 percent. Precincts immediately surrounding campus also saw an increase in turnout, according to the data. Precinct 16-E, which spans

from High to Summit streets and from Lane to Northwood avenues, saw an increase in voter turnout from 2.87 to 42 percent. Precinct 41-E spans from High to Summit streets and Indianola avenue, and 11th to 15th avenues shifted from 0.82 percent turnout to 32 percent. Beck said the difference between the two midterm elections

could possibly be attributed to young people’s attitudes toward President Donald Trump, motivating both his supporters and critics to vote. “The preponderance of people in that age group are very negative about the president, and I think he really dominated the election,” Beck said. Despite the increase in young

voter turnout, Beck said the turnout did not meet his expectations, especially given the passion expressed over tragedies such as the Parkland shooting in February. “One would expect more young people, who do care about politics often, to actually turn out to vote in elections,” Beck said. He said turnout rates for young voters were not higher due to motivation and costs such as registering, making time and focusing on peer group culture. “The actual turnout is a function of how motivated you are — how much you care — and what kinds of costs you have to incur, and the two kind of interact with each other,” Beck said. “The more motivation you have, the more likely you’re willing to pay high costs.” In the weeks leading up to the elections, campus was dotted with voter registration tables and programming in an effort to increase turnout from organizations, such as OSU Votes — a student-led movement that seeks to motivate students to vote. “I think we are doing a better job on campus of ingraining this civic spirit in people,” Andrew Schulman, a fourth-year in pubVOTING CONTINUES ON 3

Former diving club coach case moves forward ZACH VARDA Campus Editor varda.6@osu.edu The case against former Ohio State Diving Club assistant coach William Bohonyi progressed in December with filings to the court from both the defense and prosecution. While no new hearings were scheduled, December saw a request from the defense to travel out of state, a filing of a bill of particulars and an intention to use evidence. Bohonyi is being charged with four counts related to inappropriate sexual behavior with a minor — who was a member of the diving club — during his time as an instructor, including three counts of sexual battery and one count of pandering to a minor. The bill of particulars filed to the court on Dec. 21, which outlines the four charges, lists the times and locations of the offenses leading to the charges and shows that all took place in the Neil Avenue Parking Garage spanning from July 2014 to March 2015. During arraignment, the prosecution noted that the incidents took place in Bohonyi’s car. The pandering charge, according to the bill of particulars, stems from the recording of one of the sexual encounters. “The defendant WIlliam Anthony Bohonyi, Jr., did, with knowledge of the character of the material or performance involved, create, record, photograph, film, develop, reproduce or publish material that shows a minor participating or engaging in

sexual activity...” the document stated. Bohonyi was accused of coercing the 16-year-old female athlete to engage in sexual acts in July 2014 both on campus and during a competition in Maryland, according to a lawsuit filed July 11 in Indianapolis federal district court, which led to criminal charges being brought by the State of Ohio. Ohio State was initially listed as a defendant in the lawsuit in Indianapolis, but was dismissed from the case in August. “We have always maintained that — fully consistent with our core value of protect-

ing the safety and well-being of those we serve in our community — the university handled this matter appropriately,” Ohio State spokesman Ben Johnson said in a previous statement. Also filed by the prosecution on Dec. 21 was a document listing the evidence that they intend to use in the case. The evidence listed included audio interviews, cell phone, iPhone and iPad extractions and a DVD that is listed as protected. The final filings that took place in December were requests by the defense to allow Bohonyi to travel to Pennsylvania to

spend Christmas with family. The request was filed on Dec. 17 and sought permission to leave Ohio on Dec. 21 and return on Dec. 28, traveling with his girlfriend and her children while meeting all other requirements of his bond, such as no unsupervised contact with minors. The request was granted by Franklin County Court of Common Pleas Judge Michael Holbrook and the bond was modified on Dec. 18 to allow Bohonyi to travel. “Based upon the written motion of the defendant, and for good cause shown, the court hereby modifies his bond to allow defendant to travel to Pennsylvania, leaving December 22, 2018 and returning no later than 9 p.m. on December 28, 2018,” Holbrook said in his entry approving the modification. Ohio State conducted an investigation into the allegations made by the diver when it said it first learned of the relationship in August 2014. The investigation concluded that there was not enough evidence to suggest sexual interactions between the two took place, but that there was reason to believe a relationship existed. The report also concluded Bohonyi convinced the diver to lie about the relationship and that he contradicted himself to investigators. Bohonyi was fired from the university on Aug. 29, 2014. Johnson had previously said the university notified Franklin County Children’s Services, the Ohio State University Police Division, Maryland law enforcement and USA Diving when it first learned about Bohonyi’s alleged abuse in 2014.

She added that USG made posters and distributed polling information to students. Despite the push to engage student voters, Schulman said the credit for the increase cannot be placed on any one entity. “Being honest, a two-fold increase does not happen because of the work of one organization; it happens because of a culture change,” Schulman said.

Gateway Film Center to screen the greatest horror films of all time in 2019 CHASE RAY Arts & Life Editor ray.461@osu.edu Gateway Film Center announced the full list of movies for its new horror film program, Horror 101, including films such as “28 Days Later,” “The Babadook,” “Hereditary,” “Dawn of the Dead,” “Halloween (1978)” and many more on Monday. Horror 101 is a yearlong celebration of 101 of the “best” horror films of all time, curated by a list of experts in the film industry. The films range from releases dating back to 1922, and includes movies released through 2018. Some of the critically acclaimed films include “Alien,” “A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984),” “The Blair Witch Project,” “Dawn of the Dead,” “The Fly,” “The Exorcist (1971)” and many more. Horror 101 aims to “pay tribute to the best of those films that scare, unsettle or disturb,” according to a Gateway Film Center press release. The full list of 101 films was selected by a panel of national and local news outlets, filmmakers, studios, distributors, critics and programmers. Contributors to this list included representatives from Warner Brothers, Lionsgate, Paramount, IFC Films and Dark Sky Films, according to a Gateway Film Center press release. Horror 101 is the companion program to Cult 101, which was created by Gateway in 2017 to celebrate and screen the 101 best cult films of all time. The films were selected by a national panel of experts and presentations were often paired with discussions, expert analyses and many of the

films were restored in 4K or 70 mm or 35 mm film. Fans of the Cult 101 series can expect similar special pairings throughout 2019. “As soon as Cult 101 ended, I started getting requests for more programs that were similar to it in scale and scope,” Chris Hamel, Gateway Film Center president, said. “With the amazing impact these films have had on our culture, and the spirited debates horror films seem to create, Hor-

ror 101 was the obvious choice for a new program.” Over the course of 2019, all 101 films will be screened at Gateway exclusively, culminating with a closing night party on New Year’s Eve. “Candyman” will kick off the program at 7:30 p.m. on Valentine’s Day and the full screening schedule will be announced on Jan. 15. Regular Gateway Film Center ticket pricing will apply to all screenings.

Wexner Center for the Arts helps resident artist bring his debut vision to life CHASE RAY Arts & Life Editor ray.461@osu.edu In the winter of 2016, Mark Lomax II took on the job of community research and grants management officer for the Columbus Foundation. As a jazz drummer, composer, activist and educator with a Ph.D. in Musical Arts in composition from Ohio State, Lomax has spent most of his life immersed in music. However, he faced a common challenge most creatives with a 9-to-5 job face: how to push himself creatively while working full time. “[One day] I went into my office for a little bit to take a breath and the number 400 just popped into my spirit,” Lomax said. “Just my whole body resonated with that.” The number 400 in this instance, connected to the impending four-century anniversary of the arrival of African slaves to American shores in 1619. From this inspiration, Lomax created an expansive 12-album cycle. The cycle, entitled “400: An Afrikan Epic,” will be released Jan. 23, coinciding with the artist’s 40th birthday. The Wexner Center is hosting the event and played a major part in providing essential support for Lomax’s project through the Wexner Center Artist Residency Award. According to the Wexner Center’s website, the Artist Residency Award program is an annual award given to recipients who are selected by the center’s director and a board of curators. As the 2018-19 residency award recipient, Lomax was given considerable financial resources, along with technical, intellectual, professional and moral support to

develop his project. Past Wexner Center Artist Residency Award recipients have gone on to receive national fellowships, Tony awards, Academy Award nominations and Cannes Film Festival Awards. Each residency is tailored to the needs of the artist. In the process of composing and recording the works, Lomax was connected to Lane Czaplinski, director of performing arts at the Wexner Center. Their dis-

cussions about the work and the potential within the city’s music community led to Lomax receiving the residency award. “I had half of the cycle done already, because in 2015 I had purchased my own recording equipment that I was recording with at concerts, but I’m not an engineer,” Lomax said. “Some of it came out really well and we’re releasing it as part of the cycle, but other parts were a little shaky.” With the Artist Residency Award, Lo-

max was able to rerecord sections of the cycle at Columbus’ Relay Recording studio. He was also able to hire musicians of the Columbus Symphony Orchestra and ProMusica Chamber Orchestra, in addition to flying in core members of his jazz ensemble, to help him complete his project. Once he had all the core artists assembled in the studio, Lomax and his team were able to complete the remaining material for seven of the 12 albums in just four days. “That was the boost we needed to get the project to the finish line,” Lomax said. In addition to financial and institutional support for creative work, the Artist Residency Award has an educational component that allows students at Ohio State and in the local community to engage directly with artists at the top of their respective disciplines. Lomax will work with students through a master class for drummers at Ohio State’s School of Music and an overview course at the university on African-American music for the spring semester. Lomax has also partnered with Czaplinski to curate programs of classical and contemporary African-American music for the Wexner Center’s spring performing arts season. “We hope to use the art to help communities shape a path together from what we might not always want to talk about, so we can move forward in a way that creates a better world for everybody,” Lomax said. Lomax will be performing selections from “400: An Afrikan Epic” at Lincoln Theatre at 8 p.m. on Jan. 26. Tickets begin at $13.50 for students and $25.50 for the general public.

Ohio Home and Remodeling Show to inspire student home decor SYDNEY RIDDLE Assistant Arts & Life Editor riddle.136@osu.edu For students looking for apartment or dorm room design inspiration, the Ohio Home and Remodeling Show will help with their home decor needs. The Ohio Home and Remodeling Show will bring everything home improvement to the Greater Columbus Convention Center, and provide Ohio State students the opportunity to explore trends in decor and DIY projects this weekend. “Basically it has everything that somebody would need for a renovation project. It can be a small reno to a large reno that can be in a home [or] it can be in an apartment,” assistant show manager Caitlin Dorney said. “You can get ideas on decor and what’s trending.” This is the show’s inaugural year, and will hold over 200 exhibitors, about 85 percent of which will be local vendors, Dorney said, ranging from home decorators and home improvement contractors to celebrity guests such as Matt Fox, creator and co-host of HGTV’s “Room by Room,” and Clint Harp from HGTV’s “Fixer Upper” and the DIY Network’s “Wood Work.” Dorney said college students will particularly benefit from the Ohio Home and Remodeling Show because college is usually the first time young adults inhabit and decorate their own space. “For college students they might be thinking about what they want their first place to look like or they might have a dorm room at this point where they kinda want to make it their own with what’s trending,” Dorney said. “They can come see and say, ‘Oh, OK, I see that Edison bulbs are in … now I know where to find them. Or, ‘Now I know how to decorate the end table by my bed in my dorm room.’” Dorney said the exhibit Drab to Fab also would interest students. There, local designers and DIY bloggers with a minimal budget “upcycle” items of their choice. “Visitors will be able to see how they’ve taken a piece

literally from Drab to Fab, whatever piece the blogger wanted to choose like an ottoman or an end table,” Dorney said. “That’s cool for college students too because it’s something within your budget … It’s really cool to see what bloggers can do for virtually little money.” Afterward, visitors will be able to bid on the upcycled items with all proceeds going to Habitat for Humanity MidOhio. Similarly, there will be a feature show called Home Sweet Gnome, where local TV and radio personalities will decorate their individual garden gnomes will then be auc-

tioned off in a silent auction to visitors with the proceeds going to the Susan G. Komen foundation. An area called The Marketplace will also give visitors the option to shop for home products, decor and more while enjoying a drink from its bar, Club Cambria. Tickets can be purchased online via the Ohio Home and Remodeling show website for $8 in advance or $10 at the door. Tickets for children between ages 6 and 12 are $5, and there are discounted ticket prices available for groups. The show runs from noon to 9 p.m. on Friday, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Saturday and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday.

MENTAL HEALTH FROM 1

to work exclusively within the College of Food, Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, and the other will work with both the College of Engineering and Fisher College of Business. The hiring process for the third counselor, who will work in the Office of Diversity and Inclusion, remains underway. Also noted at the meeting was a USG feedback tool that found the biggest problem was students not knowing where they could access mental health services on campus. The tool was designed to gauge student perception of mental health services available on campus. As a result, Ohio State is looking to create a comprehensive mobile app that will help identify what resources are available to help students. One week after the release of the mental health task force recommendations, Ohio State closed the rooftops of the Ohio Union South and Lane Avenue garages to begin review for safety enhancements. The recommendations included action for review of the physical structures of the garages, after two students and one former student fell from the garages in 2018. The implementation team is working on a “warm line,” described as being different from a crisis hotline, in that it is available late at night and early in the morning for students to call and receive support from “highly

trained student volunteers,” the recommendations report stated. Johnson said implementation will require new technology and equipment, along with recruiting and training volunteers. The recommendations also included a push for apps that help students cope with stress. USG began working toward a partnership with Headspace — a guided meditation app that explores the bond between mental strength and wellness to help people deal with stress or crisis. Headspace has a student subscription rate of $10 per year, which could be more accessible to students with the partnership, USG Vice President Shawn Semmler told The Lantern in October. Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine awarded the Wexner Medical Center funding for additional counseling support and case management in CCS for victims of crime. The Wexner Medical Center also opened a Young Adult Intensive Outpatient Program focusing on mood diagnosis for individuals between the ages of 18 and 24 to make it easier for Ohio State students to access resources. What’s to come? Addressed in the mental health recommendation update at the Board meeting was the placement of two Stress, Trauma and Resilience Program (STAR) staff members — a case manager and a counselor — inside CCS this spring.

“The Wexner Medical Center will also be creating an intensive outpatient program for people ages 18 to 25, and they’re already working to review our suicide screening protocols,” Merchant said at the meeting.

“Suicide is the culmination of a variety of factors, including diagnostic, genetic, familial, environmental, social, cultural and occupational factors. The risk of suicide in an individual can change rapidly.” Ohio State mental health task force recommendations report

Merchant said mental health task force members and a group of students from across campus will go to Cupertino, California, to develop an app that will help identify what resources are available to help students. USG is working to collaborate with Headspace to provide easier access to subscriptions to the

stress relief app. Merchant said USG is hoping to have the partnership finalized by the end of January. Johnson said subgroups within the implementation team have several projects underway in the academic area, which include putting a mental health statement on syllabi and promoting available training programs for faculty members and others. Other projects include revising and redistributing the Office of Academic Affairs’ Guide to Distressed/Disturbed Individuals and creating a companion card version that faculty members can use to identify immediate support for students showing signs of distress. What hasn’t been addressed? The mental health task force recommendations were broken down into six main points: advancing a culture of care; enhancing and standardizing screening procedures; improving resources; communication of support and mental health promotion; expansion of delivery mechanisms — focused on creating a digital platform that helps student cope with mental health — and exploring campus environments to advance additional safety measures. While some of these points were addressed in the fall and are expected to continue with improvements in the spring, some topics have not been given any official update from the university or the task force.

With enhancing and standardizing screening procedures, the task force recommended the university “utilize nationally recognized, evidence-based and standardized suicide screening options” in order to enhance its own screening procedures. The task force has not said if it has enhanced these procedures. The report listed a number of different resources it consulted regarding screening procedures, but noted the difficulty of assessing suicide risk at a single moment in time. “Suicide risk assessment is a complex process that must be conducted by a qualified mental health practitioner to determine an individual’s risk for suicide. Ultimately, suicide risk assessment cannot be conducted in a vacuum, as suicide is a process, not an event,” the recommendations report stated. “Suicide is the culmination of a variety of factors, including diagnostic, genetic, familial, environmental, social, cultural and occupational factors. The risk of suicide in an individual can change rapidly.” As part of the communication of support and mental health promotion section, the recommendations included evaluating the current community mental health resources available in Columbus for linkage to Ohio State for further consideration. An update has not been provided on this recommendation.

DEFENSE FROM 8

into spring in 2018. Even with stability at some positions, Ohio State remains confident that new players coming in will meet and exceed the expectation the players set before. Sophomore cornerback Jeffrey Okudah described his position group as one that has “kind of grown up” and that should not be considered young anymore, even though he doesn’t know Kendall Sheffield’s and Damon Arnette’s plans for 2019.

“We can compete with the best of them.” CHASE YOUNG Ohio State sophomore defensive end

During Rose Bowl practices, members of the coaching staff pointed to freshman cornerback Sevyn Banks as the future of the Ohio State secondary, referring to him as the next “big-time corner” if he continues to develop like he has been. Defensive end Chase Young spoke highly of freshmen Tyreke Smith and Javontae Jean-Baptiste; he said assisQUARTERBACK FROM 1

Troy Smith, 2006 Smith’s final year at Ohio State is the clear main competition. He was the first Buckeye quarterback to win the Heisman since 1944, and he did it by earning the second-highest percentage of the votes ever. In 2006, Smith led Ohio State to a 12-1 record, losing in the national championship game to Florida. He threw for 2,542 yards and 30 touchdowns with six interceptions while rushing for 204 yards and a touchdown. Against No. 2 Michigan, Smith threw for 316 yards and four touchdowns to win 42-39 and advance to the national championship. Haskins comes out dramatically ahead in statistics, nearly doubling the amount of passing yards and touchdowns Smith earned, and doing so in only one more game. But there’s a reason Smith earned 91.63 percent of the total votes for the Heisman race that season: He found a way to win the games he needed to. That of course ended against Florida, but his run through the regular season went unscathed, something Haskins wasn’t able to accomplish, even with a 470-yard performance against Purdue. J.T. Barrett, 2014 Stepping in for Braxton Miller, who tore his labrum in a preseason practice, then-redshirt freshman J.T. Barrett did not have high expectations from fans. They were even lower after his second collegiate start, during which he completed 9-of-29 passes with a touchdown and three interceptions in the loss to Virginia Tech. But Barrett’s season after the defeat is one of the most impressive runs the program has seen. Barrett earned more than 300 yards in seven of his next nine starts, winning each of those games and putting his team in position to defeat Michigan after he went down with an injury that ended his season. Cardale Jones finished off the run that gave Ohio State the first College Football Playoff title, but in 12 games, Barrett threw for 2,834 yards, ran for 938 and combined for 45 total touchdowns with

tant athletic director for football sports performance Mickey Marotti described the latter as similar to Justin Tuck in the pass rush, with the sophomore anticipating the coming of former five-star defensive end Zach Harrison. “Next year, we are going to have a lot of young, hungry guys that’s waiting to play, that’s ready for their time and they going to have their time,” Young said. “I’m going to lead them and we [are] going to get it rockin’ next year.” The coaching staff also brought up the progress of freshmen linebackers Dallas Gant and Teradja Mitchell, with redshirt sophomore linebacker Tuf Borland saying there are talented players in the middle who are green and do not have much game experience. “The more we play together, the better we’ll be,” Borland said. This could be the main idea for the rest of the defense, finding its new identity with a new defensive coaching staff. But one thing will remain on the minds of the players returning, what cost Ohio State a chance at the College Football Playoff: the Iowa game in 2017 and the Purdue game in 2018, which Young could not get out of his mind. The talent and performance expectation remain the same, planning to bring the defense back to where it felt it belonged in 2018 — the playoff. “We can compete with the best of them,” Young said. 10 interceptions. The world will never know if Barrett would have been able to lead the Buckeyes to the title like Jones, and that counts against considering it to be the best single-season performance by a quarterback. But the season leading up to the finish remains one of Ohio State’s best. Dwayne Haskins, 2018 So where does that leave Haskins? He has the statistics to easily be considered the best. Of all quarterbacks in the program’s history, Haskins has more passing yards in one season by more than 1,500 and more passing touchdowns by 15. He has six of the top seven games for most passing yards, led Ohio State to a Rose Bowl win and a 13-1 record. Stats aren’t everything, and Smith’s campaign in 2006 proves that. Though his numbers don’t pop off the page as much, he led the Buckeyes to a national championship and was voted the top player in college football that season. Barrett’s numbers are more comparable to Haskins’ when looking at total yards and total touchdowns, and he did it in two fewer games. But Barrett’s broken ankle during the Michigan game gave Jones the chance to complete the historic run, and that will always diminish Barrett’s legacy, making it difficult to choose as the best season any quarterback has ever had for Ohio State. The statistics suggest Haskins had the greatest season by a quarterback in Ohio State history. The accolades lean more toward Smith. Regardless, in only one season as a starter, Haskins leaves the program as one of the greats, fulfilling what he knew he was capable of doing since the age of 10. Only time will tell if he will be remembered as an all-time great, or the all-time great at the school for which he always dreamed of playing. “I knew I was gonna be the guy,” Haskins said on Dec. 1. “I always wanted to come to school here at 10 years old. I knew I was gonna be a quarterback here, knew we were gonna do great things this year, and that’s me birthing it into existence.”

the NFL and people don’t really get to achieve that,” Haskins said. “I’m one of the few people that get to, so I’m just taking it all in.” As Haskins now prepares for the NFL as what many believe is the top quarterback on the board, Ohio State has redshirt freshman Tate Martell, freshman Matthew Baldwin and junior Chris Chugunov as the remaining quarterbacks on the roster. The Buckeyes gained freshman quarterback Justin Fields, a former five-star prospect and the highest rated recruit ever landed by Ohio State according to 247Sports Composite Rankings, who announced on Jan. 4 he would be transferring from Georgia. Martell, who would have been the projected starter this season before Fields’ transfer, said on Dec. 30 he is not worried about a quarterback who is not yet on the roster. “Why would I leave for someone who

hasn’t put a single second into this program?” Martell said. “To just run away from somebody who hasn’t put a single second into workouts, anything like that and doesn’t know what the program is all about, there’s not a chance.” Haskins leaves Ohio State with a 13-1 career starting record, and 5,396 total passing yards and 54 total passing touchdowns.
