Meyer assembles ‘dream’ team

OSU inks $125M deal with Huntington Bank

Rec Sports changes could cut some fees

PAt BrennAnSports [email protected]

During his introductory press confer-ence on Nov. 29, new Ohio State football coach Urban Meyer said football teams in the Southeastern Conference were “hot,” both on the field and the recruiting trail.

Meyer has yet to coach a single game for the Buckeyes, but as far as recruiting is concerned, Meyer is white hot.

During OSU’s National Signing Day press conference Wednesday, the finishing touches of the Buckeyes’s 2012 recruiting class, regarded by multiple media outlets as a top-rated class in the country, were revealed. Meyer disregarded immediate evaluation and rankings of the class, but one expert called Meyer a “dangerous” recruiter, adding that he had assembled a “dream class.”

Meyer lauded the effort of his coaches and said “(Wednesday) was a great day for Ohio State.”

“I’m very pleased with the work ethic our (coaches) showed,” Meyer said. “Very impressive to pull that class together. (It) was a very selfless approach to close this kind of recruiting class on such short notice.”

The 25-man class includes 16 Ohioans,

according to an OSU release. The class is also comprised of two five-star recruits and 14 four-star recruits, according to Rivals.com.

The rate at which players were commit-ting to the Buckeyes was so rapid that OSU football spokesman Jerry Emig re-released an updated version of the team’s commit list just minutes after distributing it for the first time.

During his opening remarks, Meyer mentioned six players by name, adding that he could have spoken at length about each of his commits.

Meyer first mentioned three defensive ends — Cincinnati, Ohio, native Adolphus Washington, Harrisburg, Pa., native Noah Spence and Canton, Ohio, native Se’Von Pittman — calling Pittman and Spence the “prize of the recruiting class.”

“According to … the coaches that were on the previous (OSU) staff, defensive line was very critical this year,” Meyer said. “I think we signed three guys in the top 100 (in the nation).”

Meyer also singled out linebacker Jamal Marcus, a Durham, N.C., native, and offensive linemen Taylor Decker and Kyle Dodson, natives of Vandalia and Cleve-land, Ohio, respectively.

Ohio State and Huntington Bank have agreed on a $125 million deal that gives the Columbus-based bank exclusive rights to campus in exchange for a $25 million lump sum payment and future invest-ment in the surrounding area.

Representatives from Huntington and the univer-sity will formally announce the 15-year partnership at noon Thursday, which could open up to four Huntington Bank branches on campus.

Geoff Chatas, chief financial officer of OSU, said this money will be used directly to improve the “academic core” of the university.

“It’s a significant amount of money we will be investing into the student experience at Ohio State,” Chatas said. “What we’re trying to do is to create a unique partnership with Huntington really for the benefits of students, faculty, staff and alums.”

Shelly Hoffman, spokeswomen for the university, said it will be a one-time payment at the beginning of the 15-year partnership.

“But we also will receive income on top of the $25 million, paid each year as people sign up for Huntington services,” Chatas said.

Chatas said $10 million of the $25 million will be put directly into the endowment and used for class-room improvement.

“There is plenty of renovation on campus that

needs to be done,” Chatas said. “Whether it’s the renovating of classrooms or investing in different programs at Ohio State.”

David Schamer, director of not-for-profit banking at Huntington Bank, said this partnership is one of a kind.

“The banking deal will be off the charts,”

Schamer said. “But let’s go even beyond that to the members of the community. We’re going to deploy our lending capacity and availability into the univer-sity district, and even beyond into different econom-ics projects that relate to the university.”

Huntington and OSU have established an agree-ment that Huntington will provide $100 million in lending power to the university area to improve the economic development of the area.

“How can we continue to invest in the economic development around the university?” Chatas said. “Some of that will be direct lending into businesses in the university district, but none of it is defined yet.”

Schamer said this deal is “unique” because of the positive impact it can have on the university area.

“We approached this deal differently,” Schamer said. “What’s good for Ohio State is good for the community, and it’s good for us.”

Chatas said the details of where the $100 million might go is still being worked out.

“One thing we are looking at is how the univer-sity will be a partner in development east of High (Street),” Chatas said. “It’s still very early, so we don’t have any specific retail ideas, but a lot of that will be coming out in the next couple of months.”

President E. Gordon Gee said in a statement he is excited about the new partnership.

Ohio State’s Council on Student Affairs came to an agreement Tuesday with university officials that could lead to personnel changes on two different committees. Pending legislative approval, the members on the Undergraduate Recreational Sports Committee and the Ohio Union Council could be changed to reflect a student majority.

This is the first step in a long process that Undergraduate Student Government President Nick Messenger said he hopes will end in June with the Board of Trustees meeting and approval. The Board of Trustees will meet on June 21 and 22.

“Since (the resolution) was approved, it will go to University Senate Steering and then it will bounce to the University Rule, back to Steering and then it will go to a full-floor University Senate vote with faculty, students and staff,” Messenger said. “If it passes there, it will go to the Board of Trustees for a final vote, hopefully in June.”

Proposed changes to the Ohio Union Council include dropping the number of members from 33 to 23, which will include 12 students, two regular faculty members, one staff member, three Student

Life staff members, one alumni member and four at-large members.

The proposal also looks for USG to select the Ohio Union Council’s undergraduate students in the future, some in consultation with the director of the Ohio Union, who is currently Tracy Stuck.

Another part of the CSA resolution was to change how members were appointed on the Undergradu-ate Recreational Sports Committee. The resolution looks to increase the number of students who sit on the committee and the method of being chosen to sit on the committee.

The Undergraduate Recreation Sports Commit-tee would work to draft reviews and recommenda-tions, including the Rec Sports budget. One new task of the committee is to:

“Review and make recommendations regarding the annual budget of the Department of Recreational Sports, approve other ancillary student recreational fees and make recommendations to the vice presi-dent of Student Life annually regarding the student recreational sports fee,” according to the resolution.

Messenger said the committee’s biggest respon-sibilities would be to make recommendations about the Rec Sports budget, review and make recom-mendations for extra fees and look at student fee increases and decreases.

Bryan Ashton, chair on CSA, said the Board of Trustees still has the ultimate approval to increase or

decrease a fee, but he said he thinks student recom-mendation is important.

“(The committee) does not have power of approval of any increase of the Rec Sports fee,” Ashton said. “But they will have the power of recommendation.”

USG’s ultimate goal for the proposed changes to the committees is to reduce, if not obliterate, the additional fees OSU students pay for fitness classes and intramural classes.

“We’re kind of winding up talks with the univer-sity administrators and student life administration about reducing the intramural fee and getting rid of the fitness class fee,” Messenger said. “We’re finish-ing up discussions with them about it and I’m really

A record 84 percent of Americans disapprove of the job Congress is doing, with almost two-thirds saying they “disapprove strongly,” according to a recent Washington Post-ABC News poll. Only 13 percent of Americans approve of the 112th Congress’s � rst year.

“The numbers can’t get much lower,” said Paul Beck, professor of political science at Ohio State.

The previous lowest period was in the late 1940s with President Harry S. Truman and the “Do-Nothing Congress,” Beck said.

Representatives from Ohio did not return The Lantern’s request for comment. The Lantern attempted to contact Sens. Rob Portman and Sherrod Brown, along with Rep. Steve Stivers.

“The public’s getting frustrated,” said Erik Nisbet, assistant professor of communications at OSU. Nisbet said people “feel there’s been a lot of gridlock” in Congress.

Democrats and Republicans argued last year over the country’s debt and the annual budget de� cit, culmi-nating in an unpopular climax when President Barack

Obama raised the debt ceiling. The highly unpopular Stop Online Piracy and PROTECT IP acts (SOPA and PIPA, respectively) were also introduced in 2011.

Brian Sommers, a � fth-year in computer and infor-mation science and psychology, referred to the naming of the bills as “propaganda-like,” referring to the “Stop Online Piracy Act that wouldn’t stop online piracy.”

Students referred to the in� uence of lobbyists as one of their biggest complaints.

Adam Tuttle, a fourth-year in psychology, said Congress “thinks about business too much and not enough about the individual person.”

Sommers agreed.“There seems to be a thing based more on who

has the money than what their constituents want,” Sommers said.

Beck referred to lobbyists as a “modern fact of life” and agreed the industry is more powerful in Congress than an individual. People have to organize to match lobbyists, said Beck.

When taken separately, congressional Democrats have a 33 percent approval rate, while Republicans have a 21 percent approval rating, according to the poll.

The problem is more on the Republicans halting Congress, Beck said. He said they want to deprive Democrats of any appearance of success.

“They’re focused on the 2012 election,” he said.In a 2010 interview with “National Journal

Magazine,” Senate Republican Leader Mitch McCon-nell said, “the single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president.”

Beck called this strategy “counter-productive” to government.

Despite the disapproval, Americans, more typically than not, are negative about Congress as a whole, but positive about their representative, Beck said.

Eighty-seven percent of incumbents were re-elected in 2010 despite a 72 percent congressional disapproval rate in the Washington Post-ABC News poll.

“It is dysfunctional,” Beck said. “The major reason is the partisan � ghting. It seems like really neither party is willing to compromise.”

When asked what congressional decisions they approved of from 2011, neither Sommers nor Tuttle could come up with anything.

“It’s easy to � nd problems,” Beck said.

The frozen yogurt void left on High Street when Red Mango closed in the fall will soon be � lled when Cuzzins Yogurt opens their newest store on campus this spring.

The small family-owned business is expanding beyond their Lane Avenue and Hilliard locations and opening two new stores on High Street and in Lewis Center.

Jeanie Patrick, co-owner of Cuzzins, said the decision to open a store on campus was an easy one.

“A lot of our customers go to Ohio State,” Patrick said. “When the space became available, we decided to go for it.”

The space at 1866 N High St. became vacant when Red Mango Frozen Yogurt closed last fall.

Patrick said she thinks Cuzzins will be more successful in the space than its yogurt-selling predecessor.

“We already have quite a following on campus, and we have a great variety of options in our yogurt,”

Patrick said. “We have sweet and sour yogurt, and a variety of toppings, both fresh fruit and things not as healthy, which gives us a greater appeal.”

The campus location is expected to open early Spring Quarter.

“We would like to say no later than April 1. All the plans are done and the layout has been drawn. We still need to get the permit, which takes a while,” Patrick said.

Some students, even some who have never been to Cuzzins, said they are excited for the new store to open.

“One time my friends brought me some, and it was really good. It tastes like ice cream, so it’s my favorite. I will de� nitely go,” said Brittany Cox, a second-year in molecular genetics.

Some students don’t plan on going out of their way to eat there, but said it could be a nice option in warm weather.

“I like frozen yogurt. If I happen to be on High Street I would go, but only if it was hot outside,” said Bree Ware, a third-year in early childhood education.

Cuzzins participates in fundraising for several campus organizations and clubs, and Patrick said she expects this to continue, or increase, with the new location.

“We love having the young people here,” Patrick said.

“We’re happy to participate in fundraising on campus.”The new store will require a new staff, which

Patrick said will primarily consist of OSU students. “We are currently taking applications for our Lane

Avenue and Hilliard stores, and it’s never too early to apply (for the new store). They would be trained at our other stores so when the campus location opens they can hit the ground running,” Patrick said.

Patrick said they are planning to hire 12 to 15 employees.

Cuzzins will accept BuckID to accommodate students, despite the expense to vendors, which is typically established between BuckID services and businesses.

“We will certainly have to. We will be just like everyone else on High Street,” Patrick said.

Patrick and her cousin John Falor opened the � rst Cuzzins location on Lane Avenue in June 2010, and after � nding success, opened their second store in Hilliard in Oct. 2011. Both retired, the two had wanted to open a business together, Patrick said. Being yogurt lovers, it didn’t take them long to � gure out what business they wanted to open.

“We decided on yogurt and we haven’t been sorry since,” Patrick said.

According the most recent Washington Post-ABC News poll, public approval of Congress is at an all-time low with a 13 percent approval rating. Here are the numbers over the last two decades.

The limits of the tallest building and the longest bridge

Ever since the late nineteenth century, structures have been built higher and bridges have spanned further. Have we reached too high and too far in our quest for sheer size? Have we reached the technological limit of how high we can build or how far we can span? What about Frank Lloyd Wright’s mile high tower and the tempting Strait of Gibraltar waiting to join Europe to Africa. I propose to explore the limits that technology presents us in this quest and whether there are socio-economic constraints that may outweigh mere physical limits.

Stenta saidhe thinks the change would be great.

Dodson announced he would join the Buckeyes at Cleveland Heights High School Wednesday after-noon, and Meyer said he was very happy to receive Dodson’s paperwork.

“I almost would have traded (for Dodson over) any other player we’ve signed,” Meyer said.

Those six players Meyer mentioned are just part of a 25-man class currently ranked No. 3 by Scout.com, No. 4 by Rivals.com and No. 6 by ESPN.

Meyer said he did not want to call this the best class in OSU history, nor a “home run,” but rankings of national media outlets certainly suggest Meyer has succeeded with his 2012 recruits.

Kevin Noon, the managing editor of Buckeye-grove.com, said Meyer’s first recruiting venture since leaving the University of Florida after its bowl game in early 2011 was a success.

“While (Meyer) may want to sit there and hold off and reserve judgement until he sees these guys, as an analyst … this is a dream class that he was able to put together,” Noon said. “What makes it even more amazing is just the brevity of time he had to work on putting this class together. It just shows what the Meyer brand means, and

“Through this collaboration, we are able to provide a better learning environment on campus and strengthen our neighborhoods in critical ways,” Gee said. “I am grateful to Huntington for investing in the university’s core academic purposes — to educate young people and to enrich the lives of 11 million Ohioans.”

Schamer said the ultimate goal was to increase customer service for students who choose to be Huntington customers, and noted that using Huntington services is 100 percent optional.

“Our first aim is to provide incredible conve-nience for the students. Once this deal kicks off, we’ll have multiple branches on campus,” Schamer said. “We’re going to have over 20 ATMs (in the campus area).”

One option that will be available to students in the beginning of March is the ability to link their BuckID to their Huntington debit account.

“The current pre-paid availability will remain, but in addition to that, they will have debit-pin availabil-ity,” Schamer said.

Chatas said this option is “not a requirement.”The university is in contracts with several other

banking entities on campus including U.S. Bank, which has a branch in the Ohio Union.

confident we’re going to see that sooner rather than later.”

Messenger said these changes are so important because the Undergraduate Recreational Sports Committee would advocate to lower extra fees, if they were approved.

“So right now, you pay $50 per quarter for fitness classes and $100 per quarter for intramural teams, and the URSC will make that final recommendation

what the Ohio State brand means. When you put them together, it’s very dangerous for other programs when you’re going against him.”

This year’s class was one of the best in the country, even in the face of the NCAA’s Dec. 19 announcement that the program would be banned from postseason competition in 2012 and be stripped of nine scholarships during the next three seasons.

In an exclusive Jan. 22 interview with The Lantern, Meyer said a bowl ban was unfamiliar territory.

“I’ve never been banned from a bowl game. This is all new for me,” Meyer said.

The ban turned out to be a minor bump in the road, Rivals.com Midwest recruiting analyst Josh Helmholdt told The Lantern on Tuesday.

“Honestly, it was a minor bump that they navigated easily and moved past very quickly,” Helmholdt said. “(Meyer) masterfully maneuvered around that issue and it doesn’t seem to have affected them at all.”

As for the strategy applied while recruiting the newest Buckeyes, Meyer said Wednesday that it’s about work ethic.

“It’s uncovering who the champions are for each young man that you’re recruiting,” he said. “But most of all it’s a belief in the place you’re at and knowledge of the place you’re at.”

Turn to The Lantern Sports Section on page 5A for addition coverage of National Signing Day.

“We will honor the contracts we have in place now,” Chatas said. “At the end of the contracts we will not be renewing them.”

Hoffman said of all the current contracts of banking entities on campus, the last lease, with U.S. Bank, will expire in 2015.

“However, there are renewal options that U.S. Bank could exercise that would extend the contract,” Hoffman said.

Schamer said if a student chooses to bank with Huntington, they will be protected.

“We are going to protect students. We’re going to keep them away from fees and provide them with overdraft protection,” Schamer said. “We are not going to market credit products to students actively … We don’t want students to get in trouble with credit.”

Schamer said faculty and staff at OSU will have the option to get checking accounts that Huntington employees can get.

“(Faculty and staff) will get the same account that you would get if you were an employee of Hunting-ton,” Schamer said. “We call it Huntington Plus Checking … There are a lot of benefits in there.”

Stephen Steinour, chairman, president and CEO of Huntington, said in a statement Huntington is “delighted” to be in partnership with OSU.

“Huntington believes strongly that partnerships like this can help universities grow and prosper, while providing their employees, students and alumni access to valuable financial services and benefits,” Steinour said.

to vote to approve or hopefully, not recommend those fees are extra,” Messenger said.

Don Stenta, director of Rec Sports, said he thinks the change of membership is great and he is glad to get more student voice in the committee.

“The committees are so involved with providing feedback and very important advice to employees of the university, like myself,” Stenta said. “Students who sit on these committees need to understand how much we value their voice and how important it is.”

Messenger said he is positive about the proposed changes, which will move to the University Steering Committee next.

During Wednesday’s National Signing Day press conference, Urban Meyer said the defensive end and offensive tackle positions were areas of need for the Buckeyes.

Consider those needs taken care of.

Meyer’s haul of recruits for the 2012 class included decorated and sought-after defensive ends Adolphus Washington from Taft High School in Cincinnati, Ohio, Noah Spence from Bishop McDevitt High School in Harrisburg, Pa., and Se’Von Pittman from McKinley High School in Canton, Ohio. Meyer also nabbed two of the top offensive lineman in the country, Kyle Dodson and Taylor Decker of Cleveland and Vandalia, Ohio, respectively.

Meyer said he could have spoken on the strength and quality of each member of his fi rst recruiting class at OSU, but singled out Washington, Spence, Pittman, Dodson and Decker during his opening remarks.

Marc Givler, a recruiting analyst for BuckeyeGrove.com, said these fi ve players were likely comparable to the best fi ve recruits on any college team in the country.

“They stack up with anybody’s (top fi ve recruits),” Givler said. “These are guys that had offers from every-one in the country, just about. They were coveted across the nation.”

Meyer said the Buckeyes, who have a traditionally strong defensive unit, have not tallied sacks in great numbers lately.

He said he thinks Washington and Spence, both fi ve-star recruits

according to Rivals.com, and Pittman, a consensus top-100 player in the country, could be the answer to OSU’s low sack numbers.

“They were three guys we identi-fi ed that we had to have,” Meyer said of the three defensive ends.

Washington committed before Meyer’s hiring, but OSU’s $4 million-dollar-per-year coach was actively involved in the recruiting of Pittman and Spence, players he said were the “prize of the recruiting class.”

“(Pittman and Spence) are the guys you can take anywhere in the country with you at anytime,” Meyer said. “They’re high-character guys that play real hard. They have different body types.”

Meyer also said the three players made a hard decision in choos-ing OSU, as their interest in the Buckeyes was used against them by rival schools.

“A lot of the schools went after them saying, ‘How can you go to a place that has the No. 1 defensive end, the No. 2 defensive end in a lot of rankings?’” Meyer said. “That probably surprised the recruiting class.”

Givler said OSU’s three top-rated defensive ends would be weapons in seasons to come.

“(Meyer) got three guys that can rush the passer in one class,” Givler said. “Any time you can land three of the top defensive ends in the entire country, it’s going to be a huge thing. It’s going to take pressure off the rest of your defense.”

Signing Day according to Rivals.com, and Pittman, a consensus top-100 player in the country, could be the answer to OSU’s low sack numbers.

“They were three guys we identi-fi ed that we had to have,” Meyer said of the three defensive ends.

Washington committed before Meyer’s hiring, but OSU’s $4 million-dollar-per-year coach was actively involved in the recruiting of Pittman and Spence, players he said were the “prize of the recruiting

“(Pittman and Spence) are the guys you can take anywhere in the country with you at anytime,” Meyer said. “They’re high-character guys that play real hard. They have different body types.”

Meyer also said the three players made a hard decision in choos-ing OSU, as their interest in the Buckeyes was used against them by

“A lot of the schools went after them saying, ‘How can you go to a place that has the No. 1 defensive end, the No. 2 defensive end in a lot of rankings?’” Meyer said. “That probably surprised the recruiting

Bielema bemoans OSU’s recruiting tactics Michael PeriaTTAsst. sports [email protected]

Recruiting is often called a dirty business and more than one Big Ten coach has expressed his displeasure with the way Ohio State football coach Urban Meyer goes about attracting his student-athletes.

Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema shared his discon-tent with recruiting Wednesday at a press confer-ence in which he introduced the Badger’s recruiting class.

“There are a few things that happened early on that I made people aware of that I didn’t want to see in this league,” Bielema said. “That I had seen take place in other leagues. Other recruiting tactics, other recruiting practices that are illegal.”

Bielema went on to mention Meyer specifi cally.“I was very up front and was very pointed to

the fact, actually reached out to Coach Meyer and shared my thoughts and concerns with him,” Bielema said. “The situation got rectifi ed.”

Meyer is making no apologies though.“We’re hired to go after recruits as hard as we

can,” Meyer said. “I mean as hard as we can.”Offensive lineman recruit Kyle Dodson

announced Wednesday that he will attend OSU even though he was previously committed to play for Bielema at Wisconsin. The change of heart is representative of a hot-button issue surrounding recruiting in college football.

The best football players from around the nation draw interest from the top programs across the country. A player can commit to a school, but that commitment doesn’t become offi cial until the player signs his national letter of intent. Until the player puts his name on the dotted line, he is free to change his mind as many times as he wants and coaches are allowed to plead their school’s case until the ink hits the paper.

The fi rst day a prospect can make his commit-ment offi cial is referred to as National Signing Day. This year’s National Signing Day was Wednesday and Meyer received commitments from 25 student-athletes.

Several of Meyer’s recruits had previously made verbal commitments to other schools, but Meyer was successful in persuading them to offi cially commit at OSU.

At least six of Meyers’ 25 commitments, includ-ing Dodson, were verbally committed to another school before fl ipping their decision and opting to play for the Buckeyes come signing day.

Michigan State, Penn State, Wisconsin and Notre Dame all saw at least one recruit change his mind in favor of Meyer.

It’s long been suggested that there’s an unwrit-ten agreement within the Big Ten that once a recruit commits to a school, all other Big Ten coaches will

leave the player alone. Michigan State defensive coordinator Pat Narduzzi said such a rule existed between former OSU coach Jim Tressel and Michi-gan State coach Mark Dantonio and indicates Meyer might be breaking the rule.

“(The agreement) has been between the coaches,” Narduzzi said while speaking at the Pro Football Hall of Fame Luncheon Club Monday in Canton, Ohio, according to the Canton Repository. “Jim Tressel and Mark Dantonio would never call or talk to each other’s commitments. People coach Dantonio knows well don’t come in and take players away. When you do, you lose friendships over that.”

Meyer was able to lure defensive end recruit Se’Von Pittman from the Spartans despite Pittman verbally committing to Michigan State last summer.

Pittman is considered by recruiting experts to be among the top 10 players in the nation at his position.

“It sets a tone and starts a recruiting rivalry,” Narduzzi said at the luncheon. “I guess it’s fair game. You don’t want it to be that way, but that’s how it is.”

Meyer defended himself Wednesday at a press conference in which he and some of his assistants talked about the incoming recruiting class.

“Se’Von Pittman had a relationship with Luke Fickell,” Meyer said. “I think we helped it when I made that phone call. That was one of those things, he recruited us after a little bit … He always wanted to be an Ohio State Buckeye.”

And in case there was any confusion, Meyer made it clear he had no problem recruiting players already committed to other schools.

“There are some people that say, ‘How can you go and recruit a young guy that’s committed to

another school?’ You ask a question, ‘Are you inter-ested?’ If they say no, you move on. If they say, ‘Yes, very interested,’ then you throw that hook out there. If they’re interested, absolutely, especially if they are from your home state.”

Pittman is a Canton, Ohio, native and played high school football at McKinley High School.

But Meyer said despite his competitive nature, he gets no extra joy out of fl ipping a recruit away from another school.

“Is it gratifying to go a take a guy from another school? Not at all,” Meyer said. “Is it gratifying to know that we got the two offensive tackles that we went out from day one … ? That amazes me.”

Ultimately, Meyer said it’s up to “each individual school,” whether programs will recruit players committed elsewhere. He said in some cases, the players who are already committed recruit the coaches, but if, after an initial phone call, a recruited athlete doesn’t show interest, that’s the end of it.

“We went after a young guy in Cleveland, Ohio,” Meyer said. “I asked him if he was interested in Ohio State. He said no. I wished him the best of luck, do well in school, move on … If a kid isn’t interested, we’re done. We move on.”

OSU fullbacks and tight ends coach Tim Hinton defended Meyer.

“We really didn’t go into those to try to fl ip somebody,” Hinton said. “If there’s no interest in Ohio State, there was no fl ipping.

“At that time in their life, where they were in recruiting, for the reasons they were being recruited, they had an interest. From there, it begins.”

Marotti ‘antsy’ to get Buckeyes buffTyler robinsonSenior Lantern [email protected]

The Ohio State football team did not get much time to rest after its 24-17 loss to Florida in the Gator Bowl on Jan. 2.

Just days after the conclusion of the 2011 season, the Buckeyes were back in the weight room for training and conditioning under the instruction of new strength coach Mickey Marotti, who pushed up the start of offseason workouts by a week.

“We were getting antsy,” Marotti said at his introductory press conference on Jan 12. “It’s time to go.”

Marotti, whose official title is assistant athletic director for football sports performance, will serve as strength and conditioning coordinator and manage the entire sports performance staff of the football program under new coach Urban Meyer.

“Anybody that touches our athletes in the football program, I kind of oversee it from a communications standpoint to see what we can do better to be the best out there,” Marotti said.

This will be the fourth time that Marotti and Meyer will work together. The two met as graduate assistants at OSU in 1987 and were reunited nearly a decade later at Notre Dame where Meyer coached wide receivers and Marotti served as strength coach. When Meyer was hired as coach at Florida in 2005, one of his first hires was Marotti, who went on to serve as director of strength and conditioning for the Gators until coming to Columbus.

Meyer said he has complete confidence in Marotti, as well as the four full-time assistants that will work under him.

“There are times in the year when the strength staff has more contact with the team than the coaching staff,” Meyer said. “I have complete trust in Mickey Marotti’s abilities to prepare our student-athletes to be the strongest, fastest and mentally toughest football players they can be.”

Marotti said having assistant athletic director as part of his title was something that was very impor-tant to him as far as future career aspirations.

“I had a similar role at Florida, but there wasn’t a title involved,” Marotti said. “I think it has a little bit

more meaning and maybe, down the road 10 or 15 years from now, maybe that’s an avenue that I’d like to take, to get into administration.”

Marotti received a master’s in strength in conditioning from OSU in 1987 and is only one of 100 strength trainers to receive such an honor . His salary for 2012 is $380,000. He is known for incor-porating unusual exercises into his workouts, such as flipping tires and hauling rocks.

“I’m going to go very hard on these guys,” Marotti said. “We’re going to be doing a lot of things here in the upcoming weeks that I know (the players) are looking forward to.

“Well, I am at least.”

Givler said the speed of 6-foot-4, 245-pound Spence, and the power of 6-foot-4, 230-pound Washington and 6-foot-5, 245-pound Pittman will create problems against opposing offenses.

“Spence is, what I call, an open-end. Accelera-tion up the field is what you’re looking for, and he has that,” Meyer said. “Where you have (Washing-ton) and Pittman who are more the wider-body guys and more power rushers.”

Then there’s Meyer’s prized offensive tackles, Decker and Dodson.

Meyer said he identified Decker and Dodson as the tackles he wanted the night he was hired at OSU.

“That night we were on the phone, and if you would have told me we would have got the top two guys we went after, that would have been a

good day for us,” Meyer said. “There’s a lot of positives.”

Dodson’s paperwork arrived at OSU just minutes before Meyer’s press conference began — the player announced his commitment at Cleveland Heights High School at about 12:30 p.m. Wednes-day, according to multiple reports.

Givler said Dodson, standing at 6-foot-6 and weighing in a 310-pounds is a tremendous talent.

“(Dodson) is able to get out on the edge and really get to that second level,” Givler said. “Definitely huge upside with Dodson.”

The 6-foot-8, 315-pound Decker from Butler High School was the No. 77-ranked player in the nation and the No. 7-ranked senior in the state of Ohio.

Decker’s prospects are mostly similar to those of Dodson, Givler said.

“Decker is a little more technically sound than Dodson at this point, and has come a long way physically,” Givler said. “He continues to get better

and both (Dodson and Decker), four or five years from now could be playing on Sundays.”

All told, OSU’s 25-man class is currently ranked No. 3 by Scout.com, No. 4 by Rivals.com and No. 6 by ESPN.

Meyer said he did not want to call this the best class in OSU history, nor a “home run,” but rankings of national media outlets suggest Meyer has succeeded.

Kevin Noon, the managing editor of Buckeye-Grove.com, said Meyer’s first recruiting venture since leaving the University of Florida in early 2011 was a success.

“While (Meyer) may want to sit there and hold off and reserve judgement until he sees these guys, as an analyst … this is a dream class that he was able to put together,” Noon said. “What makes it even more amazing is just the brevity of time he had to work on putting this class together. It just shows what the Meyer brand means, and what the Ohio State brand means. When you put them together, it’s very dangerous for other programs when you’re going against him.”

The Helionauts set their sights on the sunJustin ConleyAsst. arts [email protected]

Though Columbus has become an oasis in which amateur musicians can grow, the density and diver-sity of underground acts can make it difficult for any one band to get the exposure it needs to thrive.

But in a veritable jungle rife with hundreds of other bands competing for attention, The Helionauts — so named for the ill-fated flight of Icarus in Greek mythology — have set their sights for the sun.

The Helionauts are scheduled to play at Bernie’s Bagels & Deli at 9 p.m. Friday.

With bright guitar riffs and unhinged vocals from frontman Adam Brandt overlaying energetic, complex bass liness from Chris Moebius and upbeat, resonating drums from Jeff Earl, The Helio-nauts have crafted a sound that is as buoyant as it is bluesy.

“We try to keep our goofy character about ourselves, not try to be too serious about the music and be more lighthearted with the shows,” said Brandt, a 2010 Ohio State alumnus.

Earl said the band’s ease on stage is a reflection of the members’ close friendship, which had not always been the case for him in previous bands.

“When we started to do music it was like hanging out … not like a job,” Earl said. “There’s no human aspect to (some other bands’) lives.”

Their stage presence is infectiously amicable, and the band members’ jovial attitude persists through evocatively intimate lyrics carried by Brandt’s eccentric voice, which is reminiscent of Adam Duritz of the Counting Crows.

“We’re becoming really good storytellers,” Brandt said. “I write a lot of songs about … people I know and people I met telling me their stories and their conflicts in an upbeat way.”

Though The Helionauts have seemingly rooted themselves in a sound heavily informed by alter-native rock bands such as The Kooks and Red Hot Chili Peppers, the members said their style is constantly growing.

“Anyone can learn a riff and play a song how it’s written, but it’s so sterile sounding usually,” Earl said.

“Every time we play our songs, they always progress,” Moebius said.

“We’re very fertile here,” Brandt joked.Moebius cited bassist Jaco Pastorius for his

notion of the ethereal and dynamic nature of music.“He had a quote that said, ‘There’s nothing

human about music, it’s pulled from the air,’” Moebius said. “There’s really nothing human about music.”

But even as the band strives to perfect its budding sound, that is only half the battle. For The Helionauts, there is work to be done beyond the stage if they want their dreams to take flight.

Though sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll is the cliché mantra for the classic musician lifestyle, life outside the spotlight for The Helionauts requires a delicate balance of school, work and sleep — all while chasing stardom.

“We just cut out sleep,” said Earl, who works as a billing representative at American Electric Power and attends classes full time as a business management major at Ohio Dominican University.

“It does take a lot of time management. Juggling class work and work-work and band work — it takes some thinking about it,” Earl said.

Moebius, who works as a custodian at Our Lady of Peace Catholic School in Clintonville and attends Columbus State Community College part time as an automotive technology major, said the busy sched-ule easily becomes overwhelming.

“I have to put a lot more effort into making myself do things,” he said.

Receiving pay for the shows the band plays is not a sure thing, forcing members to hold down side jobs while they work toward bigger shows and bigger crowds that come with bigger paychecks.

At venues such as Skully’s Music-Diner and Scarlet and Grey Cafe, the fee for the sound techni-cian working the show is taken out of the money made off cover charges before the band members get a cut.

While the fee is often about $50, slow nights and sparse crowds can leave the band without a dime.

Earl said it can be disheartening “when you get up on stage and there’s one guy in the back clapping, but he’s really just watching TV.”

“Every band is going to have sparse shows, it’s

just a given,” Moebius said. “We’re just in that stage right now.”

Building a consistent audience often requires even more investment. While the band uses merchandise such as T-shirts to build a name, getting its music onto a CD and into fans’ hands requires studio time.

Though crowds can range from less than a dozen to 40 or 50 people, thin crowds do little to dampen The Helionauts’ determination.

Brandt, who works as a brewing manager at Anheuser-Busch, said the band members draw much of their support from the people around them.

“We definitely have strong support all around us,” Brandt said. “Our family and our friends are pretty freakin’ sweet … I’m pretty grateful,” he said.

Moebius said his greatest boost comes from the crowd.

“It’s almost like the applause and cheering and dancing is satisfaction enough for all the hard work we put in. Everything else is a bonus,” he said.

Even while they send their hopes soaring toward the sun, the band members know that their dreams are dangerously suspended on wings made of wax.

“To be successful, you’re going to have to give up everything,” Brandt said. “You get f---ed over for chasing this hopeless dream.”

But all the risk becomes worth it, when the reward — however unlikely — is so great.

“At the end of the song when the crowd is going crazy and you realize that they’re clapping at something you created … there’s nothing better than that,” Earl said.

Contrary to popular belief, thrash metal isn’t dead. One of the 1980s’ most popular thrash bands is crashing Columbus this week.

Testament, with Anthrax and Death Angel, is scheduled to perform at the LC Pavilion Friday. Doors open at 7 p.m.

This tour is part two of the co-headlining tour that ended in November. The headliners, Testament and Anthrax, have not toured together since 1987. For vocalist Chuck Billy, the tour has been like a reunion.

“It’s been a long time since we’ve played together,” Billy said. “I think it was the right time to work together again.”

All three bands had their beginnings in the early ‘80s following acts such as Metallica and paving the way for the metal scene that soon cooled off in the 1990s.

“Metal kind of fell off the map when it was just gaining momentum,” Billy said.

Metallica, Anthrax, Slayer and Megadeth made it big and became a part of the “Big 4,” but Testament did not.

Metal has since influenced many of the acts coming up in the early 2000s that perform at festi-vals like the Taste of Chaos and Mayhem Festival.

Bands like Death Angel, Testament and Anthrax fall into the genre of thrash metal, an offshoot of heavy metal, known for its aggression.

“It (thrash metal) had (the) heavy sound, powerful chord usage and speed and antisocial lyrics of the hardcore punk movement,” said Jordan Brown, a fourth-year in strategic communication.

Billy was not the original vocalist of Testament. He came into the band in 1986.

“I wasn’t from thrash metal. I was more rock,” Billy said. “To me I was a bigger guy and didn’t see how I could fit in that vein (of glam rock). (I liked) the attitude and aggression.”

Berez Harris, a third-year in philosophy, said he became a Testament fan listening to thrash metal in high school after playing “Guitar Hero 2.”

Harris said the metal songs were faster, harder and more complex.

“I wanted to play all the harder songs and they were all metal songs and that’s when I really got into it,” Harris said.

The tour has been an enjoyable experience, partly because it’s been great to see the music bridge a generational gap, Billy said.

“I love to see that fans for 20-plus years are coming to the show and also bringing their 15-year-old children to see the show,” Billy said, “kind of turning them on, the next generation, to our style of music.”

Harris said this is no surprise.“Teenagers are still teenagers — angry kids are

still going to like angry music,” Harris said. “The audience is always going to be there.”

Testament’s 10th studio album, “The Dark Roots of Earth,” will be released April 27.

“I think it’s probably going to be some of the best songs we’ve wrote in a long time,” Billy said. “Every record we’ve done different and this record is definitely different again, but I think it’s more focused with this lineup.”

Tickets are $29 at the door.
