Ultimate ROTC cadet spends intense summer in country of Georgia Savannah Evanoff @SavannahEvanoff

Most students spent their summer soaking up the sun, working retail or playing volleyball.

One student spent a grueling summer climbing mountains in 90-degree weather with the Georgian Armed Forces eating a diet of mostly bread.

Participating in the Cultural Understanding and Language Proficiency program (CULP), this cadet of the Oklahoma State Reserve Officer Training Corps, (ROTC) was sent to the Republic of Georgia to endure the Chatterie Mountain Training School for an unforgettable summer.

Cadet Evans.

Amber Evans, an animal science junior and member of OSU ROTC, climbed mountains with a foreign country’s army and acts as if it’s no big deal.

“The landscape in Georgia is very beautiful,” Evans said.

“I loved getting to interact with Georgians and learn about their culture.”

Despite being physically demanding, Evans said the

trip was fun, and she built strong friendships while there.

“You meet so many people so fast and make such good friends because you are in such high pressure situations together,” Evans said. “It’s a unique bond that’s hard to describe.”

Evans said each day they would learn a different skill – all very challenging.

One day it would be learning to tie different knots, another would be how to climb a fixed rope and the next climbing a mountain.

Lt. Kevin Nicholas, professor and department head of military science, said Evans thought the trip was going to be routine stuff.

“Some cadets for three weeks were sitting in a classroom teaching English,” Nicholas said. “She was roe barging, learning mountain climbing and scaling up and down rock faces.”

To add to an already difficult situation, Evans was one of only four women on the trip.

“It is an extremely rare thing for a female to go through this kind of training,” Nicholas said.

But Evans is not your average woman.

Evans thrives in the

military environment, excels in academics and developed a passion for leadership with the guidance of her ROTC superiors.

Michael Dale, the OSU ROTC enrollment and scholarship officer, has been highly impressed with Evans’ ROTC career and said she is exactly the kind of officer the army is looking for.

“Everything she touches turns to gold,” Dale said.

Evans, too, must have come to this conclusion because she is now contracted with the United States Army.

Although participating in freshman and sophomore year ROTC courses holds absolutely no military obligation, Evans chose to continue and will begin active duty as soon as she completes veterinary school, to which the army will provide an educational delay.

“I’d rather do this every day than one weekend a month,” Evans said.

Although Evans loves being involved with ROTC and the Army, a younger Evans might have said something different.

“In my senior year of high school, they pulled me out of class and told me I should go to a presentation on West

Amber Evans trained in Georgia under grueling conditions on a diet consisting mostly of bread.

Point,” Evans said. “I was like, ‘I’m not interested in being in the Army.’”

Even when Evans entered the ROTC classroom her freshman year, she said she took one look at the people in uniforms around her and told her instructor, ‘I don’t think I’m in the right place.’

She could not have been more wrong.

Evans has become the ultimate ROTC cadet, participating on the ROTC varsity sport Ranger Challenge team multiple times, acting as commander and coordinator for color guard,

O’COLLY

holding membership with the National Society of Pershing Rifles and leading a weekly Bible study group for ROTC members called Iron.

Evans says she loves being involved with ROTC and has had many experiences that most college students would not get to. With this, she could be referring to her color guard events where she has met former U.S. President George W. Bush, Toby Keith and attended Oklahoma City Thunder games. Or she could be referring to her intense three weeks spent in the country of Georgia.

“She didn’t just go through it,” Nicholas said. “She earned the full certificate just like any of the other Georgian military would.”

So at 6 a.m., it would not be uncommon to hear the pitter-patter of footsteps jogging outside your dorm room. Among this group of joggers might be Amber Evans because for her, jogging at the crack of dawn, carrying an extra seven hours of ROTC labs and classes and maintaining a 3.9 GPA is just another day. news@ocolly.com

No timetable set for reopening of Wooden Nickel building Stetson Payne @Paynekiller211

Hours after fire trucks left the scene, Knoblock and University still smelled of burning hardwood.

The outcome would have been much worse if not for the fast-moving actions of three employees at the Wooden Nickel.

Just after closing at 8 p.m. Monday, employees went back to the store’s office before everyone headed home for the day. They discovered smoke coming from a wall outlet, and an employee ran to the Stillwater Fire Station across the street.

By the time employees returned with firefighters, the entire office and a good portion of the building had filled with smoke.

The Stillwater Fire Department issued an allcall, bringing back off-duty firefighters and dispatching units from every station in Stillwater.

Stillwater Fire Chief Tom Bradley said that by 9:15 p.m., the fire was contained and mostly extinguished. The Perkins Fire Department was also

placed on standby while firefighters worked to save the building.

The building’s owner, K Cohlmia, mentioned that the building had nearly burned to the ground in 1998, and fire crews knew they had minutes to contain the flames before they spread to other parts of the building. The previous fire was so severe that the entire interior of the building had to be renovated and rebuilt.

The floor above the Wooden Nickel is being remodeled, with Pecks Lodge as one of the primary tenants for the space.

Firefighters discovered the flames were burning along the electrical conduit running from the office, expanding into the floor joists overhead.

Had the fire started a few minutes later, no one would have been inside the building to notice the smoke until much more damage had been done inside. Gary Murch, superintendent of the remodeling project, said he was thankful the employees were still there.

“Had it been 15 minutes later, no one would have been here,” Murch said. “I’d left at 4 and was already at home in bed when I got the

call.”

Allison Keys, who owns the Wooden Nickel, said how fortunate they were.

“We close at 8, and they leave the store by 8:30 every night, so it was like the grace of God that everything happened like it did,”

Keys said.

A large piece of the floor was quickly cut away so that fire crews could extinguish the fire, which did severe damage to several beams and joists supporting the second floor suite, Cohlmia said. The cause of the

fire was an electrical short, which burned along wires and into insulation.

Damage was limited to the Wooden Nickel office and a second floor suite, Cohlmia said. Minor water damage also occurred in the second floor hallway. The

thick smell of smoke and charcoal around the building is coming from smoke still trapped in the ceiling, which can only be removed once pieces are taken down and the area is ventilated.

The second floor was preparing to reopen pending a final inspection in the near future.

There’s no timetable for when the Wooden Nickel or the second floor will reopen for business. Cohlmia said that much of the cost will come from clean up rather than the damage itself.

“The floor has to be redone to replace the joists and beams,” he said. “And our suspended ceilings will have to be dropped so that we can remove soot and debris.”

Other businesses in the building such as Varsity Barber Shop will reopen Tuesday, a sign posted on the door says.

The Wooden Nickel is asking customers to follow the store on Twitter @ ShopTheNickel and on Facebook (The Wooden Nickel) for information and updates on when it will reopen. news@ocolly.com

FOREVER FIGHTING: Langford overcomes ‘spiritual warfare’ Cody Stavenhagen @CodyStavenhagen

Editor’s note: This is the second in a three-part series.

Visit ocolly.com to read “Forever Fighting” in its entirety.

AWAKENING Among Americans ages 25-34, the leading cause of death is not drugs or alcohol or cancer. It’s depression that leads to suicide, according to a 2012 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study. It’s estimated one in five Americans experience a mental health issue. Depression’s effects are often silent and gradual, but they can be destructive not only to the person inflicted, but to all in its path.

Jevon Langford sat at Willie’s Sports Bar in Covington, Kentucky — about a 15-minute drive from Langford’s home in Cincinnati — with his teammates as a rookie in 1996, fresh off what would be best game of his NFL career.

He had just gotten a sack and an interception against the Atlanta Falcons. He was set to marry the woman of his dreams, Pamela Lindley.

He was making more money than he had imagined. Yet he sat at the bar, shaking, feeling claustrophobic, gritting his teeth, ripping at his leather jacket.

As part of the NFL lifestyle, Langford had started partying regularly. Drinking.

Sleeping around. Not coming home.

Now he was on ecstasy.

He had been high all day, then popped two more pills before going out.

“Me and the fellas, we were in meetings trippin’,” Langford said. “We were popping (ecstasy pills) all week long. Young bucks, man.”

What Langford thought was happiness ended up being destruction. He was coming undone from the inside.

“This shit hit me hard one night, man,” he said.

That night, Langford walked out of the sports bar and left his truck in the parking lot, compelled by some rage and confusion deep inside. He started the 5- or 6-mile walk home. He heard voices in his head.

“I was going through what I call spiritual warfare,” Langford said.

In one ear, he said he heard God. “This is God talking to me now,” Langford said. “‘Jevon, everything you’ve worked for, everything you’ve strived to get, now you’re going to throw your life away.’”

He started to pray: “God, if you’ll take this from me, I’ll never do it again.”

In the other ear, he said he heard the devil.

“The devil is telling me, ‘Walk into the street and kill yourself,’” Langford said. “‘Walk in front of a car and just end it. You ain’t shit. You ain’t nothing.’”

Finally, just before Langford reached his home on 1731 Gilbert Ave. in Cincinnati, he came to a small church he had never noticed before. He went to the door and found it locked. Then he knelt down.

“I got on my hands and knees,” Langford said. “And

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 28, 2015

I said, ‘Lord, if you take this from me, I will never do this drug again. I want this to be released off me.’

“And I remember this. The Lord told me, ‘If you take this as a lesson, and you don’t do it again, I will take it off you.’ I raised my right hand to God. He delivered me that night.”

Still coming down off his high, Langford said he went back home, where Lindley found him in a panic. In some strange mixture of fear and enlightenment, Langford said he confessed to Lindley everything he had done. Miraculously, she stood by him.

Langford awoke the next morning feeling like a changed man. He went to the Bengals’ training complex and sought out a teammate named Tim Johnson.

“He was always saying for some reason the Lord sent him to the Bengals to save someone,” Langford said.

“He was always talking to me in practice, giving me scriptures, things like that. I didn’t want to hear all that.

Everybody was like, ‘Get away from the Christian guy.’”

This time, Langford approached Johnson in the locker room and told him what had happened the night before.

“He said, ‘Jevon, I knew something was going on,’” Langford said.

From there, with Johnson as his guide, Langford committed to cleaning up his life.

Johnson, a veteran defensive linemen, remembers talking with Langford about God for 45 minutes one night.

“I asked him a real simple question,” Johnson said. “I said, ‘Jevon, why are you

here?’ He said, ‘I’m here to play football, I’m here to make money.’ I said, ‘No. Why are you on the planet?

Why do you exist?’

“He was stumped. He didn’t know. Beyond football, beyond making money, he was just stuck. … I think down in Jevon’s soul, he knew he was troubled and that he didn’t have a lot of options for how he was going to personally develop.

Football was like a house of cards in his life.”

He said a receptive Langford immediately knelt down, prayed and asked God for forgiveness. Days later, Langford took hundreds of dollars’ worth of music and drug paraphernalia and threw it in a dumpster.

“It was a desire in him,” said Johnson, who is now a pastor in Orlando. “He didn’t want to be totally destructive.

I didn’t believe it. Regardless of the stories that came out about him, I believed he was more. … Maybe it was the Lord showing me, telling me, ‘Invest in this man,

O’COLLY

he’s called to do something great beyond football.’ And I believed it.”

Langford stopped doing ecstasy. He quit drinking, but he said he still smoked weed, unable to completely escape the vices that controlled his life.

“In his heart, he was a real genuine, loving, wannado-right guy,” Johnson said.

“Sometimes it was shrouded in the confusion of who he really was. If you don’t know who you really are, you’re up for sale.”

One day, Langford decided to see a psychiatrist.

He became so depressed that he would lock himself in his room for hours. He didn’t even want to interact with his newborn daughter.

Jevon Langford the football player had everything under control. But when the lights went off and the adrenaline stopped, Langford had no identity — a dangerous reality for someone whose life revolves around a game.

Eventually, he approached

a team doctor, told him about his symptoms and the medication he was on, searching for more help.

“I was scared I would get cut if I told him because he would think I was crazy,” Langford said. “I remember him telling me, ‘Jevon, don’t ever deprive yourself or be ashamed to tell what’s going on. Believe it or not, probably 90 percent of your teammates are taking this.’

And he put me on Zoloft.”

After that awakening, Langford wanted to change, to become a better man. He set new goals: To own his dream home. To become a stronger husband and father.

He saved game checks under his mattress for so long team management found out they hadn’t cleared the bank.

Finally, he bought his family a 5,000-square-foot home in Las Vegas, complete with a custom brick exterior, home gym and everything he had ever wanted.

But Langford’s life, his list of goals, is like a mountain with no peak.

THE JOURNEY In 2013, the NFL created a taskforce to investigate the lasting effects of concussions. It’s estimated one in three former NFL players suffer from the aftermath of brain injuries.

In 2011, Langford joined a litigation team seeking damages for the NFL’s history of negligence. He knew he had concussions.

Could that be the cause of his depression and impulsive mistakes? Even as awareness increases and leagues crack down on safety, there remains a disturbing culture that turns a blind eye to the seriousness of concussions. From the acclaimed investigative book “League of Denial”: “A man will not believe something that his livelihood depends on his not believing.”

There is an old pair of boxing gloves stowed away in the small storage room in Langford’s gym.

He holds on to them as a reminder of what it feels like to fail. He is done with that. He has had enough of it.

In 2000, Langford became a professional boxer while he was still with the Bengals. Football was his escape, his way out, but boxing was his love. He went on to earn a 6-0 record in the ring — all knockouts — but team management was always opposed to his outside venture.

“Our concern is he might get roughed up, knocked out or injured in some way,” Bengals owner Mike Brown told the Cincinnati Enquirer in 2001. “I don't think these two endeavors are mutually compatible.”

Before the 2002 season,

Langford got cut from the team. About the same time, his marriage fell apart.

Langford said he got back into the party scene in Vegas, simply because he had nothing else to do. The identity he built for himself, a two-sport pro athlete, was gone. Now he had to face Jevon Langford and the remnants of a tough upbringing he masked through sports.

“I don’t think I had who Jevon was under grasp,” he said. “I thought I was a football player. A boxer.

That’s all it was. So when those things are gone, how do you deal with the man in the mirror?”

It rubbed off on Lindley.

They began fighting, emotionally abusing each other.

Langford claims he never hit her.

Soon, after Langford said he found crystal meth in his wife’s purse, the couple separated and then divorced in 2006. Langford had no money because of reckless spending habits that fluctuated with his depression.

“These demons from the past, quarterback, running back, playbooks, discipline, studying,” Langford said.

“Money doesn’t help none of that.”

He ended up essentially homeless, sleeping on a drug dealer’s couch. Soon, he said started dealing with a friend. One night in 2003, after driving around with a quarter kilo in the trunk, Langford and his crew checked in at a Motel 6 outside of Las Vegas to facilitate a drug deal. Langford ended up staying in.

That night, his partner got picked up by an undercover cop.

Still, Langford was soon on probation for a domestic

assault charge he said he pleaded guilty to because of his attorney’s advice.

In the years that followed, Langford struggled to find himself. The demons of his past came back. He couldn’t regain the drive that once lifted him out of Washington, D.C. He was an alcoholic and ballooned to 450 pounds.

“I was honestly on death’s bed,” he said.

In 2008, he got remarried to a woman named Jayna, with whom he had an ongoing affair. He moved to Denver and the couple had a son. Langford dropped 140 pounds and spent eight weeks training to revive his boxing career, thinking it was the only thing that could make him feel whole.

In May 2011, he fought heavyweight Tobias Rice in

Providence, Rhode Island.

It was Langford’s first fight in eight years. It was also his first loss.

“I got my ass kicked for four rounds,” he said. “That was the most humbling night. It wasn’t you kicked somebody else’s ass, you’re going out partying and drinking. You had to taste that.”

In 2011, he got divorced again. He hasn’t seen the two children from his first marriage since 2008. It’s been a year since he has seen his other son.

“It hurts like hell,” Langford said. “I run a business where I’m trying to help other people, trying to make a difference in their lives, but I can’t be there for my own children. It hurts like hell.”

In an act of humanity,

O’COLLY

Calvin Miller — now a pastor at Mount Zion Baptist Church and defensive coordinator at Langston University — offered his old defensive end a temporary place to stay in Stillwater and helped him find work.

“He called me and just said, ‘Hey Coach, I need some help,’” Miller said. “‘I’m a couple of steps away from being homeless, and I just need some help.’ He said, ‘I just need a new start.’”

Langford started attending church with Miller and got a job working on the construction team renovating the OSU Student Union. He was getting up at 4 a.m. and working for $9.25 an hour.

“I’m back in Stillwater … 18 years later,” Langford said. “I had a breath of fresh

life.”

Then, one day, Langford’s boss came downstairs yelling. Langford had struggled with this job, mostly because he had no construction experience. He wasn’t sure what he had done wrong.

He knew he was tired of being ridiculed.

He took off his hard hat and swung it as hard as he could at his boss. Langford was fired the next day.

Thinking he had nothing, believing it was all over, Langford went home and looked at that old pair of gloves.

He called a few friends and pitched an idea.

Remember the 10 Nathan Ruiz @NathanSRuiz

The Cowboys remembered, and they remembered early.

When they came out for warm-ups, members of the Oklahoma State men’s basketball team wore black T-shirts with the text “We Will Remember” in silver beneath a silver OSU logo.

On the back of each shirt was the number 10 in bright orange, with a black ribbon in the zero.The shirt represented how important it is to Remember The 10.

It was just the start of a tribute to Jared Weiberg, Bill Teegins, Pat Noyes, Denver Mills, Brian Luinstra, Daniel Lawson, Will Hancock, Nate Fleming, Bjorn Fahlstrom and Kendall Durfey, who died in a plane crash Jan. 27, 2001.

Before the game, Brock McGinnis, a basketball

manager, was awarded the Pat Noyes Memorial Scholarship, while Harry Endicott received the Will Hancock Memorial Scholarship for his work in OSU’s media relations department.

A moment of silence followed the scholarship presentation. Pistol Pete knelt at half court while the Gallagher-Iba Arena crowd, donning “10” stickers, quietly watched the video board as the faces and names of each member of The 10 appeared on screen. At halftime, 10 students received Remember the 10 scholarships, and money from the annual Remember the 10 run was donated to different charities. OSU Counseling has received $160,000 to date.

The Cowboys and the rest of the OSU family showed that those 10 men who passed away 14 years ago will not only be remembered, but will also never be forgotten. sports@ocolly.com

TREVOR GREER/O’COLLY

Tuesday was the 14th anniversary of the OSU plane crash.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 28, 2015

Annice McEwan @annicemcewan Senior forward Michael Cobbins has been back since late November, but it hasn’t been obvious for much of Big 12 play.

Known primarily for his blocking, Cobbins played a vital role for OSU in its 64-53 win against No. 20 Baylor on Tuesday night in Gallagher-Iba Arena.

Cobbins just missed his season average of 6.8 points per game, accounting for six points and 11 rebounds against the Bears. His surprise performance provided another offensive option for the Cowboys, who have been relying heavily on top scorers Le’Byran Nash and Phil Forte.

Freshman Tavarius Shine had a standout performance himself, but said it was important for both he and Cobbins to contribute.

“We’re way better (with more scorers) ’cause it opens up a lot for us,” Shine said. “It opened up the middle also for Cobbo. It just makes our team run better — more smooth.”

Although Cobbins wasn’t topping the scoring stats, his presence on the floor had its noticeable advantages. A save in the last seconds of the first half allowed an important 3 from Shine during the team’s nine-point run.

And Cobbins’ productivity didn’t stop after halftime.

Cobbins answered a dunk from Jeff Newberry with a big block of his own. It was just one of five for Cobbins during

Center Michael Cobbins had six points, 11 rebounds and five blocks Tuesday.

the game.

“I told Shine, ‘I got your back no matter what,’” Cobbins said. “So I saw he caught it and once he went middle, I just had it up in my mind that I was going to go block the shot, and luckily I was able to get it.”

Baylor coach Scott Drew made a point of crediting Cobbins for his defensive play.

“He had a heck of a block on the one,” Drew said.

Even more important, Cobbins tied Baylor’s Rico Gathers, who ranks second nationally in total rebounds. He also held the Bears’ second leading

scorer to 11.

“It’s a big challenge (going against Gathers),” Cobbins said. “Once that man’s playing, it’s pretty much said and done. So you got to just fight him at the board and if not, then box him out and go get the ball.”

Gathers described the game as “up-tempo” between the two.

The Cowboys’ win at home is important, as the team remains on the outskirts of the Big 12 toss-up. OSU’s chance at any tournament appearance remains weighted in the Cowboys’ ability to win on the road.

With Cobbins emerg-

ing as a bigger piece of the Cowboys’ puzzle, the rough-and-tumble team might finally have loaded its weapons enough to get back in the conference spotlight. sports@ocolly.com Up Next vs.
