Decision to not rehire Salaita final
Turning the page
BY ABIGALE SVOBODA STAFF WRITER
»
After the release of a report made by the Committee on Academic Freedom and Tenure, stating that Steven Salaita’s appointment should be reconsidered, the Board of Trustees echoed its firm stance that he will not teach at the University. In August, Salaita’s employment was rescinded, causing major uproar within the University as well as across the country, and sparking conversations on academic freedom. The committee began an investigation, and the results, supporting a reconsideration, were released Dec. 23. The committee was comprised of seven University faculty members from different colleges. David O’Brien, chair of the Art History program, currently chairs the committee. The report stated that Chancellor Phyllis Wise raised legitimate questions about Salaita’s “professional fitness.” The report concluded Salaita’s candidacy should be reconsidered by a committee of academic experts in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Less than two weeks later, five past chairs and vice chairs of the Senate Executive Committee wrote a letter in response to the report. While members agreed with some points, they ultimately argued that the decision not to employ Salaita should stand. The next Thursday, the Board of Trustees issued a press release informing the

public that the University will not hire Salaita. “On Sept. 11, 2014, consistent with the recommendations of the Urbana chancellor and the president, and after careful consideration and discussion, the board voted 8-1 not to approve that appointment,” the press release said. “That decision is final.” The press release went on to say that despite media reports about the committee’s recommendation, Salaita’s employment will not be reconsidered and reiterated that the decision was made independently by the board after much deliberation. In the meantime, the Association of American University Professors is preparing its own report on Salaita’s case. Jordan Kurland, Associate General Secretary for the Department of Academic Freedom, Tenure, and Governance of the AAUP, said a draft of the report will be sent to concerned parties on Friday. Concerned parties include University officials, such as Wise and board members, along with Salaita and his legal counsel. The concerned parties are asked to respond with corrections and comments by Feb. 2. The AAUP will then final-

Grant funds research program Mellon awards grant to Program for Research in the Humanities BY ELYSSA KAUFMAN STAFF WRITER
The Illinois Program for Research in the Humanities was awarded a $2,050,000 grant by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to fund new fellowship programs in the areas of bio-humanities, environmental humanities and legal humanities. “The grant will help us create really exciting research groups to develop all kinds of scholarly activities in the three areas listed in the grant,” said Illinois Program for Research in
Humanities Director Dianne Harris. “It will also involve undergraduates who will be able to do research working together with graduate students and post-doctorates. This, all together, will create undergraduate certificate programs in those areas of humanities.” Harris said the first research group will launch in 2016 and will work for two years until the next group launches in 2018. The program was invited by the Mellon Foundation to apply for the grant and worked close-
ly with the program officer. The program has previously received several grants from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, including a post-doctorate fellowship grant. Janelle Weatherford, director of Foundation Relations, assists faculty and administrators with their approach to the Mellon Foundation in support of humanities and art-related initiatives. Weatherford said the Mellon Foundation is one of the country’s largest private supporters of arts and humanities at higher education institutions. They also support performing arts organizations and art

Illinois student delegates attend ABTS conference
Research Park awarded NSF funding
Student senators exchange ideas during annual event
BY JANE LEE
BY CHARLOTTE COLLINS STAFF WRITER
The University sent eight representatives from the Illinois Student Senate to collaborate with other Big Ten schools at this year’s winter conference for the Association of Big Ten Students, ABTS. Student delegates discussed campus and student government related issues at the event, held at Northwestern University from Friday until Sunday. The association’s mission is to create a network for student government leaders to share ideas with-
in the conference and to “serve as the active collective voice of students” of the Big Ten Conference. They seek to achieve this goal through bi-annual conferences, an annual conference geared toward federal lobbying in Washington D.C. and year-round communication among the 14 schools regarding the improvement of student government operations and general campus concerns. Matt Hill, vice president-external, was one of eight representatives delegated to attend the conference from ISS. He said he believes ABTS is gaining influence, and that its conferences put the universities in a position to commu-

Two alumni-founded companies recently received funding to develop the digital, entertainment and medical fields. The National Science Foundation awarded two Research Park-based companies, BioAnalytics and Lumenous, from its Small Business Innovation Research funding. There are two phases to the program’s funding. According to the National Science Foundation, Phase I consists of a “short proofof–concept/feasibility grant,” which is around $150,000 to $225,000. Companies must reapply for Phase II, which is a “longer developing grant” of $750,000. “That funding is a really great source of funding for
small businesses because the federal government makes those awards and does not take any equity ownership in the company,” said Laura Frerichs, director of Research Park. “It is in essence, a grant or a contract to the company, which is a really nice source of money in the early stages to help de-risk the technology development.” The Small Business Innovation Research funding comes from 14 agencies, the largest funders being the Department of Defense, the National Institute of Health and the National Science Foundation, Frerichs said. In total, she added, the agencies set aside 3 percent of the program’s extramural research budget to award to

Obama outlines plans to help middle class BY LESLEY CLARK TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama worked to frame his final years in office Tuesday as a time of national recovery from unpopular wars and deep recession, striving now to help a middle class left behind by an otherwise growing economy. “It has been, and still is, a hard time for many,” he said in his second-to-last State of the Union address. “But tonight, we turn the page.” He drew a broad portrait of a liberal economic program that would take billions from the wealthiest Americans and use it to finance a long list of programs for the working and middle classes. “Will we accept an economy where only a few of us do spectacularly well?” Obama asked a joint session of Congress gathered in the Capitol where he took office exactly six years earlier. “Or will we commit ourselves to an economy that generates rising incomes and chances for everyone who makes the effort?” Speaking for the first time to a Congress that is now entirely Republican-led, Obama suggested ways he could work with the House of Representatives and the Senate, including on tax reform and trade. But he also seized for him-
self — and presumably for 2016 Democrats — the banner of income inequality, arguing that while the U.S. economy is recovering and Wall Street is booming, the middle class still needs a boost. His speech suggested a framework for the coming campaign for a new president, one where top Republicans already signal they plan to stress the fact that the middle class lost ground in the Obama years while offering conservative alternatives to boost jobs and wages. Republicans, who took control of both chambers in November on a platform that included vows to cut spending, had rejected many of Obama’s proposals before he began speaking. “The American people aren’t demanding talkingpoint proposals designed to excite the base but not designed to pass,” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said Tuesday on the Senate floor. “Challenge us with truly serious, realistic reforms that focus on growth and raising middle-class incomes.” Sen. Joni Ernst of Iowa delivered the Republican response, offering an alternative vision of governing. “We heard the message you sent in November — loud and clear,” said Ernst, whose November victory helped
Republicans take control of the Senate. “Now we’re getting to work to change the direction Washington has been taking our country.” Obama called for $320 billion in tax increases over the next 10 years, including fees on certain Wall Street companies, eliminating a “trust fund loophole” the White House says allows the super rich to pass on estates tax free, and raising the top tax on investment gains for the wealthy. Obama proposed using the new tax revenues to make two years of community college free for students, tripling the child care tax credit to $3,000 per child, increasing the minimum wage, providing workers with paid leave and creating a second-earner tax credit of up to $500 for families. Obama appeared unchastened by the loss of Democratic control of the Senate. Instead, he seemed bolstered by the rising poll numbers that have come along with a recovering U.S. economy. The economy is now strong enough, he argued, that it needs to invest in the middle class. “At every moment of economic change throughout our history, this country has taken bold action to adapt to new circumstances, and to make sure everyone gets a fair shot,” Obama said.
US, Cuban diplomats begin talks after 50 years of frigid relations BY HANNAH ALLAM TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
The leader of the U.S. delegation to this week’s talks on normalizing relations with Cuba has a reputation for determination and expertise at the State Department. Diplomats and Latin America specialists describe Roberta Jacobson as a hardcharging stateswoman.

All the ideas we shared and learned will be huge going forward.” Kevin Harris, vice president of community relations for Northwestern’s student senate and coordinator for the 2015 Winter Conference, believes the conference met the goals it sought, particularly in terms of attendance. “It was the second time ever we had all 14 Big Ten student governments represented, the largest number of delegates ABTS has ever had, at 92,” Harris said. “It went a long way in terms of collaboration, and we got a lot of great feedback from everyone that came.” The conference is organized into breakout sessions and keynote speakers. Among the keynote speak-
“practically unheard-of.” Jacobson will be taking the United States’ first, ginger steps toward normalization after a freeze of more than 50 years. Jacobson will arrive in Havana on Wednesday for several days of talks, the first since President Barack Obama announced Dec. 17 that the two countries would restore diplomatic relations, which were cut in 1961. The meetings were scheduled before the policy shift was announced; for years lower-level U.S. and Cuban officials met to discuss a migration accord. But dispatching Jacobson is a sign of the administration’s seriousness about changing course. ers this year was Sen. Dick Durbin. Mitch Dickey, ISS president, said he believes the conference produced valuable information to take back to campus, including student government’s relations with the community. “A takeaway (of mine) was buffi ng up community relations outside of just the campus area; our student government hasn’t done a good enough job of that in comparison to some of the other universities,” Dickey said. “Coming back, a lot of us were excited to start talking about getting involved with the city councils and the mayors, as well as with the rest of the community.” Looking forward, Dickey said Illinois will most likely be sending students to Washington, D.C. in the spring to lobby at a conference. Harris said the ABTS Winter Conference focused in part on preparing students for the spring lobbying event. He said the annual lobbying conference, called the Big Ten on the Hill event, is “a collective way to lobby for higher education issues” and meet with White House and

Democrats push back with Keystone export and steel amendments Senate Democrats said Tuesday they will push amendments to legislation approving the Keystone XL pipeline requiring that it is built with domestically produced steel and that the oil it carries is used in the U.S. “The project now would simply pump American oil across the American heartland — not to be used here — but to be shipped overseas,”
Sen. Charles Schumer of New York, the Senate’s third-ranking Democrat, said. With polls showing a majority of voters supporting Keystone, Democrats have sought to undermine its purported benefits to the U.S. They argue that the oil from Alberta is destined for overseas markets — an assertion disputed by pipeline builder TransCanada Corp.

The AAUP is also in contact with Salaita, who could take action independently; however, the organization was not at liberty to speak about Salaita’s future plans. Salaita could not be immediately reached for comment. As for the University’s future plans, it seems academics will be working to move past the controversy and reunite the campus. “I certainly hope we don’t see any similar cases in the near future, but the sooner we can agree on such policies, the better,” Joyce Tolliver, University professor and co-author of the CAFT response letter, said in an email. “What is urgent is that the campus community move forward to heal the wounds that have been opened by the responses to this case, and formulating such policies may help us to do that.” Nick Burbules, SEC member and co-author, echoed Tolliver, adding that he and others hope to have some new policy ideas to present at the next Academic Senate meeting. Regardless, Burbules said there needs to be an official conversation about the controversy. “My own view is that we need a University-wide discussion about our policies on academic freedom and free speech, to make sure that we have the right rules in place,” Burbules said in an email. “I assume the topic of social media and ‘public utterances’ would come up in that context.” Robin Kaler, campus spokeswoman, said the Chancellor does not have any further comment on the Board’s decision.

Lumenous, the other recipient of the funding, works on improving projection mapping technology. According to its website, the company has created technology for Microsoft, Disney and Adobe. Frerichs said the company’s founders “became some of the leading experts on that type of augmented reality, internationally, and saw an opportunity to create a business around it.” Lumenous could not be reached by press time.

museums. Nancy Castro, associate director for The Illinois Program for Research in the Humanities, said various people will participate in the new fellowship programs. The research group will consist of a faculty fellow, who will serve as a group leader, as well as two external post-doctoral fellows and four graduate students. People with a Ph.D. that also fit the necessary criteria in the subject area can apply. In addition, three undergraduate interns per year will participate in this group. “The hope is that the faculty fellow will cast a broad net for other scholars for working in these areas on campus,” Castro said. “This is a great hub for promoting intergenerational cross-pollination in these subjects and for bringing people who are thinking about these issues along all different stages in life or scholarly path.” One main benefit of the new fellowship program is the curriculum development at the University. Castro said a faculty member and the two post-doctorate fellows will teach courses in the second year, creating larger opportunites for undergraduates to take courses. In addition, Castro said the program benefits many graduate students who do a lot of work and are not always financially supported. “Its an enormous pleasure that due to the support of the Mellon Foundation we can provide these robust opportunities for our graduate students,” Castro said.

E DI TO R IAL Time to move on from Salaita controversy after board’s reaffirmation
On
Thursday, the Board of Trustees reaffirmed that Steven Salaita will not be a professor at the University of Illinois. The decision is final despite reports and recommendations to reconsider the situation, and we are glad to put this situation behind us. Over the past several months, the University has been nationally criticized by the American Association of University Professors, notable academics and students regarding Salaita’s withdrawn job offer after he posted a series of controversial tweets regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. We agree with these critics that the University’s hiring procedures need some work, but it’s time to move forward, and the board’s reaffirmation of its September vote allows the University to do so. A decision had to be reached, and the board decided to remain firm. Students, faculty and outside affiliates have debated Salaita nearly every day since the start of the year. We’ve debated Salaita nearly every day in the newsroom since the start of the year, and the one thing we can agree on now is that it’s time for the University to learn from this and take a step forward. In order to do this, the University will need to address the points raised by critics such as the Committee on Academic Freedom and Tenure. On Dec. 23, the committee released a recommendation for Salaita to be reconsidered by a group of “qualified academic experts.� They also urged that Salaita should be able to respond before another decision is made. In an interview with The Daily Illini, Salaita said ideally he would “join the American Indian studies program and get to work. Then, I and the University of Illinois can put this behind us.� Twenty-four days later, a decision was upheld despite these recommendations. What the report shows is that people are still concerned. While Salaita won’t have a job on this campus, what about other future professors? We think it is highly beneficial that professors are taking a look at the procedure that was followed during the Salaita situation, and that they continue to seriously analyze the circumstances that surround this case. There is much to be observed, questioned and analyzed as details of the controversy slowly unraveled these last several months. Our campus is full of incredibly intelligent and talented people, and for a while, that image was overshadowed and in question by many. We hope that the University can learn from this and make necessary policy changes.

BIEBER GETS BLASTED
A CRIME OF PASSION
After several years of supposed begging, Justin Bieber is finally getting what he wants — a Comedy Central roast where he can essentially just get trashed on by a bunch of professional trash-talking comedians in front of millions of viewers. However, we can’t imagine the roast will be much different than what everyone’s already been saying about Bieber for years because if you look at most media coverage of JBiebs, his life is already one, big, giant roast. We are also a little skeptical over whether the Comedy Central roasters will be able to do a better job at making fun of little Biebs than Zach Galifianakis did in an episode of “Between Two Ferns,� where one of Zach’s comments was, “You’ve had three hairstyles. What’s next for your career?�
There are few things more enjoyable than chowing down on a beautiful, juicy, calorie-ridden double quarter-pounder burger. But evidently in Georgia that pastime comes with its implications when paired with driving. One man was recently ticketed for eating a burger while driving down a highway, in apparent violation of Georgia’s distracted driver law — a law which does not specify food. As the man stated, “Maybe I was enjoying the burger too much; I needed to tone it down.� We say there’s no such thing — you can’t just turn off the passion that comes with consuming America’s favorite fast food item. And believe it or not, at least in our experience, chewing does not interfere with the ability to operate a car.

LESS IS MORE-EO
BACK TO SCHOOL BLUES
This February, the Oreo cookie is getting another flavorlift with the addition of red velvet cookies. This is the straw that broke the camel’s back (or the cookie that busted the consumer’s already-tight pants). Mega Stuf, Triple Double Stuf, berry, watermelon, pumpkin spice, coconut, birthday cake and cookie dough are just some of their too many flavors. Why can’t we just return to the good old days when “The Parent Trap’s� Oreo-peanut butter invention was as crafty as you needed to get with such a simply delicious cookie? Make the flavor mayhem stop!
Everything is wrong in the world seeing as it’s grossly slushy and chilly outside, we’ve been separated from our parents’ home cooking, classes have resumed, and we aren’t able to sleep in anymore. Someone please call us the wambulance ASAP. Maybe it’s just the bad weather, but all of this just makes us want to drop out and cuddle with Netflix. However, for those looking for a silver lining to this dark, looming cloud, at least it’s only a four-day week and it’s syllabus week to boot. All in all, though, winter break, we miss you dearly.
Instructors should be open about books STEPHANIE YOUSSEF Opinions columnist
T
he start of a new semester brings with it new professors, new school supplies and new textbooks for our new classes. Beginning my sixth semester here, I look forward to the nostalgic, and always relaxing, experience of going to the Illini Union Bookstore, browsing the endless shelves, picking up all of my required materials and waiting for what seems like hours in the long line to the cashier. The best part about this is receiving the parting gift from the register of having my wallet violated by my efforts to get an honest education. To avoid this whole process, I wish some University professors would be more straightforward about just how “required� their class materials are. The unfortunate truth is that the money I cough up at
the bookstore every semester goes to heavy compilations of motionless black and white text that I will never lay my eyes on. Out of all of the classes I have taken so far at the University, only two have legitimately required me to open the assigned textbook to do well in the class. Many professors are thorough enough with their course information that the textbooks are unnecessary. In addition to our tuition costs, our education requires other extensive expenses. But as a student who appreciates the opportunities and knowledge some of these expenses have bought me, I understand that a learning experience this valuable is not necessarily going to be thrown at me for free. But this appreciation only applies to the resources that I have actually used. A class textbook is something I am willing to pay for if it is an investment I will get some return from — whether in knowledge or in reselling. However, much to the disappointment of me and many of my fellow students, the
only return investment we get from a majority of our textbooks is in using them as paperweights. Professors should be familiar with these expenses because the prices of our textbooks are nothing new. The cries of our wallets as we invest in expensive “required� materials have been heard all the way in Springfield. Illinois politicians have been working on funding efforts to use more open source materials in higher education. If materials are actually required, it would be helpful if professors used more open source materials as they have free licenses to universal access. I am not directing the blame for book expenses at publishers that make the books or even at the satanic bookstores that inflate their prices well above market value. Rather, I am directing the blame for this superfluous and unnecessary investment at some of the professors at this university. Dear professors: If you know that all of the informa-
tion we will need for the class will be provided in your PowerPoints and lectures, don’t assign us the responsibility of buying an expensive book we won’t open in the first place. If you know we don’t really need to use the book for your class — and I know that you know that we don’t — please respect us enough to tell us, or at least throw us a hint when you introduce the syllabus. As broke college students, your honesty will be much appreciated. In the past, I have had one honest molecular and cellular biology professor inform the class that the required textbook wasn’t really necessary — an act that saved the class valuable money, time and effort. Until the day when all professors are straightforward and truly understand the definition of the word “required,� there are plenty of resources for purchasing cheaper paperweights.

Internships provide experience classes can’t ALEX SWANSON Opinions columnist
O
ver break, I’ll admit that I became almost obsessive in researching different spring and summer internships. It’s almost dazzling to look at all the opportunities out there for college students. Over the fall semester, I took on my first internship experience. I worked as an LAS 101 Intern, meaning that I taught a course for college freshman on college-success strategies. Because I intend to become a teacher, the internship was extremely professionally productive. I was able to teach a class of students and discover what I did well and which of my teaching skills needed the most development. I received college credit for the internship, and it was the most independent and indepth teaching experience I’ve ever had. Although many college-level internships are unpaid, they can be professionally productive. Internships often allow students to gain meaningful experiences and make professional contacts in their field. Internships are not for anyone at any time. If you do have a heavy course load or have to work during the school year or summer, an internship may not be feasible. Under those
circumstances, it can be difficult to contribute your best work to an internship. But if you have the time, the potential level of professional development from an internship is something that is hard to find elsewhere. Because of the many benefits, internships can, and should, be crucial aspects of any undergraduate career. In my experience, even most summer jobs or coursework don’t lead to the same degree of experience in your prospective field. Internships frequently count towards school credit; some internships may even require simultaneous enrollment in a University course. And of course, internships also communicate to future employers or graduate admissions counselors that you’re a student who is interested in doing more than expected and can balance numerous responsibilities at once. So, consider the time and energy commitment carefully. But, if you do find that you’re interested in an internship, now is the time to begin looking. Most summer internships have an application deadline in February, March or April. Truthfully, it may not be too late for some spring internships, either. Although the deadline for many programs will have passed, there are a few that have application deadlines around late January. When searching for an internship over break, I utilized many University
resources to help me with the internship application process. For example, I-Link is an extensive University resource and one of the most comprehensive search tools available for finding internships for University students. In addition to finding postings for jobs and internships, you can also create a personal profile, view listings for career fairs and can keep track of potential employers, contacts and job opportunities. Further, if you are planning on staying in the Urbana-Champaign community for the summer, U Intern can also be helpful as it aims to connect students with nonprofit companies for summer internships in the Urbana-Champaign area. Further, you can check with your academic adviser about internships. Often, departments post opportunities that are geared toward a specific major. There are also other search tools that are helpful for finding internships that are not affiliated with the University like Internships.com, Idealist and Experience.com. After I located a few potential internships, I used other helpful University resources to make me an attractive candidate for the job. The Career Center at the University can help immensely. The Career Center website has entire pages devoted to the creation of professional resumes and cover letters.
The website also has sample resumes and cover letters that you can use to help format your own. Most internship applications require at least a cover letter and a resume. Depending on the type of internship, some may require work samples, references or letters of recommendation, which should be requested as far in advance as possible. You should create a general resume and cover letter that detail your skills and experiences that can serve as a base, but each time you apply for an internship, be sure to send a resume and cover letter that is tailored specifically to that application. Once you create your resume and cover letter, you can stop by the Career Center and sign up for an appointment to have it peer reviewed. For another editing service, especially dealing with spelling and grammar mistakes on your cover letters and resume, also consider using The Writer’s Workshop. I understand that college students are busy people, but if you do come up with extra time during the upcoming semester or over the summer, consider an internship. And when doing so, be sure to take advantage of all the University resources in both finding a program and submitting your application.

Happy hearts prove healthy
BY ABRAR AL-HEETI STAFF WRITER
It turns out being happy could lead to more than just feeling good — it could also be associated with good health. A new study suggests a link between having a positive attitude and being in better cardiovascular health in comparison to people who are more pessimistic. Researchers from the University of Illinois, Northwestern University, Chapman University, Harvard University and Drexel University conducted the research based on data gathered by the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis, which followed and surveyed about 5,100 U.S. adults aged 52 to 84. Over a span of 11 years, participants’ cardiovascular health was assessed based on factors such as blood pressure, physical activity, body mass index, blood sugar, cholesterol, diet and whether they smoked or not. Their optimism levels were also captured in a questionnaire. Results of the study found that people with the highest levels of optimism were two times more likely to be in ideal cardiovascular health when compared to pessimistic individuals of the same age and sex. Rosalba Hernandez, professor of social work at the University, is lead author of the study. “I think the important thing (about this study) is that here we’re at least establishing a link, that there is some association,” Hernandez said. While past research has looked into the effects that depression and anxiety can have on cardiovascular health and has shown more optimistic people are less likely to experience a heart attack, this
goes beyond those studies to demonstrate the positive outcomes of optimism. “This ... examine(s) how a psychological asset — namely, optimism — can protect cardiovascular health,” said Julia Boehm, coauthor of the study and assistant professor of psychology at Chapman University, in an email. “Rather than just focusing on disease events, this study examines a more positive way to conceptualize health — not merely as the absence of disease, but as the presence of protective factors.” The study does not determine whether optimism leads to better cardiovascular health or vice versa, but future studies will examine causality. “Because this study assessed optimism and cardiovascular health at the same time, we can’t say which causes the other,” Boehm said. “That will have to be addressed in future research.” Hernandez said this study gives researchers the ability to continue to do experimental studies to establish a longitudinal association between the two factors and further validate a link.
She also said she’s interested in further investigating the effect race and ethnicity can have on optimism. Because an equal number of participants were selected from four ethnic groups — Caucasian, Latino, AsianAmerican and African-American — Hernandez separated the data gathered from each group and looked at the link between optimism and heart health within each. “Although not significant, we did see ... optimistic people in the Latino group were four times more likely to have ideal cardiovascular health,” she said. “So it kind of suggests that optimism in terms of heart health might even play a different role across different ethnic groups.” Hernandez said this means future studies will need to disentangle not only why optimism and heart health are linked, but also whether the association differs by ethnic group. If anything, results of this research might be enough reason to start each day with a positive attitude.

Pennsylvanis man wins best facial hair in the United States BY SARA BAUKNECHT TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
PITTSBURGH — This is home to the American Mustache Institute, and former Mustached American of the Year titleholder Adam Causgrove of Mount Washington. Now, he’s in good company. Conor Barrett, 25, of Point Breeze, Pa., is the Wahl Man of the Year for best facial hair in the nation. He was one of 12 finalists who went “faceto-face” for the title. “I found out about a month ago, and I had to keep it a secret,” he says. “Now it’s a bit of a relief that I can tell people. So far, it’s been pretty wild.” The public had the chance to vote for its favorite face of hair on Facebook, and that pick made up 40 percent of the score. The rest was based on a review by a judging panel, which ranked finalists on general enthusiasm for facial hair, media readiness and potential brand ambassadorship for Wahl, which makes facial grooming products. Barrett credits the support of family members and friends — especially mem-

RECORD recordings in 1920 in New York, which are the basis of the album. Martin said Jones gets ignored for his role in the transition between the social dancing music that was popular in the 1910s and the jazz of the ‘20s, and this album shows the tension in the arrangements. “It’s got a lot of the old but it’s looking forward so it’s very exciting if you have a historical mind and an appreciation for the beauty of the arrangements,” he said. Hennessey and Martin said their favorite album they produced was “Lost Sounds: Blacks and the Birth of the Recording Industry, 1891-1922,” which won a Grammy in 2006. They also cherish their experiences at the Grammy Awards. Hennessey said that on Saturday, the day before the televised event on Sunday, there is a Grammy awards ceremony for lifetime achievement awards

Wahl visited places its research deemed to be the “Most Facial Hair Friendly Cities in America” (Pittsburgh ranks No. 20 on the list) and brought along a mobile barbershop to scout men with the best beards and mustaches. Barrett’s full, burly beard earned
him the name of Wahl Man of Pittsburgh and got him in the running for the grand prize. And the grand prize is (drum roll) ... $1,000, a national advertisement spot for Wahl grooming products and all the bragging rights and glory that go along with being Wahl Man of the Year. “I’m coming after (Pittsburgh Steeler lineman Brett) Keisel now,” he says.

She also said that there is no “velvet rope” on Saturday, so if you are famous and present, you are willing to talk to anyone you run into. “Our first year, the Grateful Dead got a lifetime achievement award, so there was the Grateful Dead sitting right next to us, and I congratulated one of them in line!” Martin said. Hennessey and Martin also recall meeting Kathy Griffin. Hennessey said they showed Griffin where to get her medal that all nominees receive. “I was like you’re a G, I’m an H; I’ll get you to the front of the line!” she said. This year Martin plans on taking his mother as his plus-one. “I’ve had my fun, now I can take someone who might appreciate it and might enjoy something that we’ve done,” he said. Martin said the biggest challenge of having a
record label is promotion. He explained that shortly after they launched, they were featured in the New York Times. “We didn’t know anything about it and the phone was ringing off the hook. I can’t tell you what that does for business!” Martin said. However, he said that the coverage declined after about eight or nine years. Now the couple is developing social media to get their name out there. “Trying to raise awareness for something people have never heard of is a challenge,” Hennessey said. Despite the obstacles they have faced, Hennessey said it is worth it when they are able to create something cool. “This stuff is really the ultimate alternative music,” Hennessey said. “It was recorded live and they couldn’t mess with it or change it ... it’s the opposite of autotune.”

University employee, record company owner nominated for 2 grammies BY ANNABETH CARLSON STAFF WRITER
Meagan Hennessey is a manager of web services for the College of Business, updating websites and helping faculty with their sites. But what people may not know is that she won a Grammy — and may have another on the way. With husband Richard Martin, Hennessey owns Archeophone Records, which means the archaeology of sound. Since launching the label in 1998, the couple has produced and restored albums from the years 1890 to 1925, known as the acoustic era of sound. Their albums have earned 11 nominations at the Grammy’s, five for their music and six for their writers’ album notes. In August, Hennessey and Martin released the album “Happy: The 1920 Rainbo Orchestra Sides,�

which has been nominated for Best Historical Album and Best Album Notes at the 2015 Grammy’s. “We kind of backed into it – (we) began to wonder what happened before rock n’ roll and began collecting records,� Hennessey said. “At some point we realized that they were at risk of not being preserved and no one was going to hear them or know about the music unless we started putting them out.� Martin said he feels a special connection to the era of music because no one else in the world is focusing on it. “We are the only place to get this material so we are very happy to have that advantage. We feel that is has been underrepresented, underserved, misunderstood, underappreciated, and we are aiming to open it up,� he said.
Martin explained that the acoustic era of sound is different from the music of the late 1920s and 1930s because it was made without electricity. He said it is just the power of the singer’s voice and instruments. “We think it is beautiful. It has its own charm to it,� he said. As the cofounders and only employees of the record label, Hennessey and Martin juggle many responsibilities. Martin focuses on the restoration of the records, transferring them to digital and doing distribution. Hennessey, in addition to her job at the University, works on the website and the e-commerce side of the business. Together, the couple works on research, layout and design. They also search for records together. Martin said that when they started nearly 20 years ago, they visited
a lot of flea markets, haunted houses and antique malls. However, he said records are now long gone from most of those places. They now look to online and private auctions. “We have forged really close relationships with some world class collectors, and they are very interested in preserving American history,� Martin said. Their latest Grammy-nominated album, “Happy,� reflects this history. Martin explained that the musician, Isham Jones, was a Chicago staple who had a band called the Rainbo Orchestra. He was well known for songs like “It Had to Be You� and “I’ll See You in My Dreams.� Jones made his first

New group fitness class makes hearts POUND Rhythm based fitness program incorporates drumsticks BY LILLIAN BARKLEY STAFF WRITER
A new group fitness class marches to the beat of its own drum. The POUND class, which combines rhythmic drumming with high-impact workouts, will be taught by David Robertson at the ARC at 6 p.m. every Thursday. Robertson, senior in Media, said the workout is “totally something new and inventive that we’ve never had at Campus Rec before.� The program is pioneering at the University because no other major university in the nation has a certified program, according to Robertson. POUND, created by drummers and fitness experts Kirsten Potenza and Cristina Peerenboom, uses Ripstix, which weigh twice as much as a standard drumstick, according to Robertson. “While that seems like a very small difference, when you’re waving those around in the air and hitting them together for an entire hour, the amount of work that you’re doing, the difference is huge,� he said. Ripstix are provided with the class and are the only
special equipment required. They also provide a unique satisfaction. “You’re actually hearing the work you’re doing,� Robertson said. “What a great way to relieve stress and anxiety from the week than hitting the floor and hitting the sticks together.� Chris Hedlin, graduate student in English, participated in the demos, which took place in the middle of December, and attested to the benefits of the sticks. “I felt like using the drumsticks also helped me push myself,� she wrote in an email. “I sat deeper into my squats, for example, because it was fun to be able to hit the floor with the drumsticks.� Working in time with the rhythm also distracted from the intensity of the workout and made it more enjoyable, according to Hedlin. The upbeat, modern music was also a draw. “I know some people think because we’re using drumsticks; the whole class might be rock music, but that’s not the case,� Robertson said. Some of the artists he uses include Skrillex, Britney Spears, DJ Snake, Dillon Francis, Fitz and the Tantrums and Iggy Azalea. Some other exercise classes license their own music or use low-quality covers of songs, according to Robertson. Purchasing all of their music from iTunes means this will never be the case for POUND, because “the creators really believe in supporting the
music industry,� he said. The instructors are also encouraged to choreograph their own workouts in order to keep up with the newest releases, meaning workouts are frequently refreshed. Robertson said his class will be a mix of his own choreography and established workouts. Playing the piano for 15 years and being involved with choir and musical theatre allowed a “perfect fusion of my love for exercise and all that musical background,� he said. While the emphasis on rhythm is a natural appeal for musicians, Robertson said he plans to spend the first 15 minutes of the hour time slot to explain musical terms like “4/4 time,� as well as the unique moves in each routine. The workout tracks are categorized by muscle focus, according to Robertson. Set tracks require doing all moves from a squat position and lunge tracks use a lunge position. TNA (thigh and ab) tracks entail lying on the ground for hip bridges and core work. Kick tracks target hip flexors and use base kicks. All of these are combined with cardio to create an intensive workout. Elyse Dillon, senior in AHS, also took some of the demo classes. “It’s high intensity with tons of squats, lunges and core engagement,� she wrote in an email. “It’s a fresh and exciting new class that will break up any boring workout routine.�

David Robertson, senior in Media, will be teaching the POUND class at the ARC this semester. The class will be a new addition to the group fitness options at Campus Rec. Out of Robertson’s other group classes Dillon has taken, she wrote this was the most challenging. The class sizes have a capacity of 35 to 50 people, due to Ripstix availability. Though only one day a week is scheduled, more days could be added if there is high demand. Robertson said he was drenched after his 25-minute demo, but the fun of the music and group setting makes the exertion less noticeable. “It’s really rewarding when the whole class is doing it together,� he said. “It’s so cool to hear everyone hitting on the same beat and you totally forget that
you’re exercising and doing a workout.� Anyone can participate Thursday during Campus Rec’s free week, which began Tuesday and runs until Jan. 27. Students who want to continue will need to purchase a group fitness pass for the semester. Robertson recommends standard workout clothes such as leggings, yoga pants and basketball shorts. Though some tracks are shoes-optional, he suggests footwear due to the intensity of most of the routines.

Illinois forward Leron Black goes up for a shot against Indiana at State Farm Center. The Illini lost Sunday’s game 80-74 and have lost four of their last six games, struggling defensively.
unday’s basketball game between Illinois and Indiana featured long stretches of exciting basketball, with free-flowing offenses and not much quality defense. Expect Wednesday’s matchup between Purdue and Illinois to play out in opposite fashion. The Hoosiers had quick, athletic players who were all capable of filling it up from long range. But they had virtually no size in their frontcourt. John Groce’s Illini will get a different look Wednesday, as Purdue brings size and strength to State Farm Center. If history is any indication, the Boilermakers will attempt to play stifling perimeter defense and get away with as much hand-checking as possible. They’ll turn the game into 40 minutes of gritty, grindit-out play, which won’t be easy on the eyes of your average fan. This strategy has worked well against Illinois in Matt Painter’s time at Purdue. The Boilers have won nine of their last 10 games against the Illini, including four of their last five in Champaign. They’ve owned Illinois the past decade, and Painter is 12-5 against the Illini in his career. Every year, I’m guilty of foolishly penciling in Purdue as a “W� on the
schedule before the season even starts, and every year Purdue punks Illinois. I’ve finally learned my lesson, and am certainly not comfortable predicting an Illini win Wednesday. I might not be writing with confidence, but that doesn’t mean I don’t expect the Illini to play with confidence. Their play was poised and composed against Indiana until the final two minutes of the game. They withstood multiple Hoosier runs and hit back with scoring bursts of their own, even when a second-half deficit reached double digits. Even though Illinois didn’t hold on for the win, it was an overall encouraging performance out of a team missing its best player. In Rayvonte Rice’s absence, sophomore guard Kendrick Nunn has stood tallest, averaging 17 points over his last four games. That includes a 25-point performance against Nebraska and a 24-point showing against Indiana; he shot 17-of-26 overall and 10-of-17 from three during those two contest. It’s hard to even tweet about Nunn these days without using the fire emoji. Malcolm Hill has also been consistently good, averaging 15.5 points and 5.3 boards since Rice’s Jan. 5 hand injury. The Illini will have to continue to rely on Hill and Nunn to provide the brunt of the scoring until Rice’s return, and the sophomore duo will have to overcome Purdue’s

Strengthening the defense BY SEAN NEUMANN STAFF WRITER
The defense needs to be better. That was Illinois head basketball coach John Groce’s thought following an 80-74 loss to Indiana on Sunday — a game his Illini team let go in the final minutes. Illinois couldn’t put a stop to a 13-2 Hoosiers run that ended the game and handed the team to its fourth conference loss. It was the fourth loss in six games for a struggling Illini squad. But the trouble isn’t over for Illinois. A 7-foot A.J. Hammons will likely give the Illini a headache under the basket Wednesday night when Illinois (12-7, 2-4 Big Ten) hosts Purdue (11-7, 3-2). The junior center has averaged 6.2 rebounds per game and just over 10 points, while leading the Big Ten with 45 blocks this year. Illinois’ Nnanna Egwu is averaging just over five rebounds and has struggled as of late. Egwu fouled out of Sun-
day’s loss to Indiana with just two rebounds and no points in 27 minutes — a performance Groce said wasn’t up to par. The senior center’s 102 rebounds in 19 games is third on the team behind guards Rayvonte Rice (105) and Malcolm Hill (103). Indiana head coach Tom Crean said Egwu’s performance is about more than statistics. “Egwu, to me, is as versatile, valuable and as mobile as any big I can think of,� Crean said after Sunday’s game. “It’s not about points and rebounds. It’s about his action.� Crean said Egwu’s multiple efforts are key to his impact on games. His efforts are subtly translating onto the stat sheet, though. Egwu’s teamleading 32 blocks this season give him a career total of 174 — just three shy of tying the Illini record for blocks in a career. And Illinois might finally get help for Egwu in forward
Leron Black, who has steadily improved throughout the season. “He’s making fewer and fewer mistakes everyday,� Groce said of the freshman. Black had nine rebounds and eight points Sunday against Indiana. “He’s definitely getting better,� junior guard Ahmad Starks said. “He always brings that aggressive intensity to the game. We always like that.� Offensively, the Illini have been impressive on the court. Behind the hot shooting duo of Starks and sophomore Kendrick Nunn, the Illini made 20 3-pointers in the past two games combined, scoring more than 70 points in each. Purdue ranks last in the Big Ten in opposing team’s 3-point percentage and has allowed an average of 65.3 points per game this season, 11th in the conference. “Those shots will come all year,� Starks said. But if the Illini defense

The big-serving Anderson opened the tournament with a first-round win against Diego Schwartzman, 7-6, 7-5, 5-7, 6-4. Up next is a second-round date with Ricardas Berankis on Wednesday.

Tiley led the Illini to an undefeated 2003 campaign, capturing the national championship along the way. As tournament director, Tiley is in charge of many aspects of the event. Australia is known for its scorching summer heat, and one of Tiley’s influences on the tournament is the introduction of a third retractable roof on Margaret Court Arena at Melbourne Park, the event’s site. This addition makes the Australian Open the first Grand Slam site to have three roofs. In a tournament that features greats like Rog-

Anderson and Tiley experienced major success at the U of I, and people on campus should familiarize themselves with the two by watching the Australian Open these next two weeks.

Women’s basketball works to adjust without Crawford BY BRETT LERNER STAFF WRITER
Sitting at 2-4 in Big Ten play, the Illinois women’s basketball team and head coach Matt Bollant are already forced to adjust to a major bump in the road. Senior guard Ivory Crawford has now been sidelined for a week with a knee injury. “Obviously, the injury to
Ivory (Crawford) is a big deal to us, she’s kind of our senior leader and has that toughness and made a lot of plays down the stretch, and I think that really hurt us in the Nebraska and Michigan State games,� Bollant said. Crawford is the team’s leading scorer, averaging 15.9 points per game and is in the Illinois program’s top
20 all-time for points. Crawford’s absence has been apparent in the Illini’s three straight losses without her, only scoring a high of 56 points in any of those games. “Honestly, we need to make more plays,� Bollant said. “I look at Kyley (Simmons) and Brittany (Carter) and Jacqui (Grant) in the past three games, they haven’t
been great.� Freshman guard Amarah Coleman has stepped into the starting lineup in Crawford’s place and helped carry the load on the offensive end. In the Illini’s most recent game, Crawford posted 24 points in a loss to Maryland. Coleman and post player Chatrice White have responded well to their high levels of responsi-
bility as freshman. “I’m excited about our freshman, if you look at our leading scorers in the Big Ten after six games, our top three scorers are two freshman and then Ivory (Crawford),� Bollant said. Not only does more responsibility fall on the shoulders of the freshmen with Crawford stuck on the bench, but
it also shortens an already tight rotation. Freshman guard Brooke Kissinger and senior Taylor Tuck have seen minutes off the bench sporadically, but will most likely become more involved in rotation until Crawford returns. “We’re searching for

ROUX pesky defense for Illinois to come out on top. Senior Ahmad Starks and freshman Leron Black both recorded their most impactful games in Illini uniforms Sunday, with Starks scoring 19 points and Black recording eight points and nine rebounds. While those performances were great off the bench, the starters they subbed for (Aaron Cosby and Nnanna Egwu) both went scoreless. The Illini need production from their starters as well, or solid showings from the bench will go to waste. The challenge for Illinois will be containing Purdue’s massive front line. Centers A.J. Hammons and Isaac Haas are both seven feet tall, and players like Raphael Davis and Kendall Stephens (6-foot-5 and 6-foot-6, respectively) will stretch an Illini team that essentially starts four guards. Groce will have to get creative on defense, and don’t be surprised to see more zone than usual to compensate for size mismatches.

comes down to a matter of trust. Crawford has been one of the most dependable players in the program for years and is one of the few impact seniors on the current roster. This means Bollant and his staff are putting their trust in younger players and transfers who are still feeling their way through the program and the Big Ten, only six games into conference play.
“We’re having to trust a lot of kids that are putting on an Illinois uniform for the first time and that’s a challenge, to be really consistent,” Bollant said. As for Crawford’s return to the court, it may come sooner than expected. The initial time table was about four weeks for recovery. Bollant said it looks like Crawford is on pace to be back in uniform
closer to three weeks total. “It’s hard to know right now, but she’s ahead of schedule, so we’ll see,” Bollant said. “I know she’s anxious to get back on the court and obviously we’re anxious to have her back as soon as possible.”

Drug abuse mires ’85 Bears BY FRED MITCHELL TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
Not all members of the ’85 Bears corroborate the tales of widespread abuse of painkillers and other drugs as chronicled in this week’s “Real Sports” on HBO. Former Bears coach Mike Ditka and quarterback Jim McMahon, among others, said that the abuse contributed to many of the former Bears players being severely debilitated now. McMahon, Richard Dent and Keith Van Horne are part a group of former players who accused the league in a lawsuit of supplying them with strong painkillers and other drugs that allowed them to play but ultimately negatively impacted their lives. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages on behalf of more than 500 former players. “As far as McMahon, when did he play?” quipped Bears Hall of Famer Dan Hampton during an interview with the Tribune on Tuesday. Hampton often feuded with McMahon because he felt the Super Bowl XX quarterback was unwilling to play hurt. “When was he getting them? When he was in the hot tub? I don’t remember him playing that much. “I’ve got to be completely honest. I am just at a loss. And I think I have made the analogy that a soldier, 30 years later, says: ‘Hey, they made us carry guns.’ I mean, that was part of the business. ... I always said that the day I walked into the Chicago Bears locker room for the first time, it was the last time I felt good. After that it was a war of attrition due to the contact, due to the extent
of games and the practices.” Hampton and former Pro Bowl safety Gary Fencik acknowledge that painkillers were available, but it was up to the individual discretion of the players not to abuse them. “I think that if you wanted it, you could get it,” said Fencik, who played with the Bears from 1976-87 and is the franchise’s all-time leader in interceptions. “But I don’t have any experience to really make that anything but a qualified statement. I feel pretty fortunate that I thought the care that I got was good.” “I saw someone was talking about painkillers (being on planes) coming back from away trips with a lot of liquor. Yeah, people did have beers and I took a lot of anti-inflammatories. But as far as the wider use of painkillers ... I am not being naive. I knew it happened. I just don’t know whether or not it was abusive or not.” Hampton agrees. “Fred Caito, our trainer, did a masterful job of knowing where that line was,” Hampton said. “Certain players, obviously, were very ... some of them had blisters from running routes. They are not going to have all of the skeletal aches and ailments like I do when I am getting hit from different directions and double teams and all that.” Caito, now retired and living in Ohio, declined to comment when contacted by the Tribune Tuesday. “(Caito’s) job was to administer and adjudicate who needed some pain medication and who didn’t,” Hampton said. “How many players

Though Painter has a scrappy team this year, the Boilers are probably not making the NCAA tournament. If Illinois is going to get back to the level that Groce and fans aspire to reach (regularly making the NCAA tournament), Purdue is a team the Illini need to consistently beat. Illinois’ NCAA tournament hopes for this season have taken a hit, but they’re still alive. A home loss to Purdue would put them on life support.

Trestman hired by the Ravens BY JEFF ZREBIEC TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
The Ravens moved quickly to replace Gary Kubiak, announcing Tuesday afternoon that they have hired former Chicago Bears head coach Marc Trestman as their new offensive coordinator. The announcement comes a day after Kubiak was officially announced as the Denver Broncos’ head coach. Ravens coach John Harbaugh, who is in Arizona preparing to coach one of the Pro Bowl teams, interviewed Trestman and former Broncos offensive coordinator Adam Gase for the position on Monday. Trestman, 59, coached the Bears the previous two seasons, compiling a 13-19 record. He was fired earlier this month after the Bears completed a 5-11 season. “Marc is a very cerebral guy,” said former Ravens head coach Brian Billick, now an NFL Network analyst. “I would imagine he and Joe (Flacco) would get along very well. Both have that calm, cool demeanor. Again, Marc would have to show some flexibility, even to the degree of using the same verbiage.”
Known for his ability to get the best out of quarterbacks, Trestman has extensive experience at several levels. He was the offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach for the Cleveland Browns in 1988 and 1989, and that Browns team included current Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome. He’s also had stints as the offensive coordinator for the San Francisco 49ers, Arizona Cardinals and Oakland Raiders. After two years as the offensive coordinator at North Carolina State, Trestman coached for five seasons in the Canadian Football League, where he won two Grey Cups as the head coach of the Montreal Alouettes. He’s helped numerous quarterbacks, including Bernie Kosar, Rich Gannon and Jake Plummer, earning the nickname of the “quarterback whisperer.” His task will be to continue the momentum that the Ravens built offensively this past season. Quarterback Joe Flacco had one of the best seasons of his career, and the Ravens set franchise highs in total points and yards.

He had to basically be the arbiter of knowing if somebody was abusing these pain medications, or do they have to have them in order to show up for practice and be able to get ready for a game properly.” Hampton also acknowledged the access to painkillers and alcohol on the planes. “You know, we would get on the plane after a game and every seatback would have two cans of beer. Some guys wanted to drink beer, some guys didn’t. Every year in training camp I would have to find all of the Christian guys that didn’t drink. Those
extra beers on a flight would come in handy.” But Hampton disavowed the notion that players were coerced to abuse any substances. He said he used painkillers only to perform better on the field. “I hate to say it, but they are (taking) the dumb jock (stereotype) to a new low. I shake my head. I could not have functioned as well as I did without the help of some of the medications,” Hampton said. “They are my teammates from long ago and I wish them well. But the truth is the truth.”

Ravens offensive coordinator Kubiak named Broncos coach BY JEFF ZREBIEC TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
Gary Kubiak said he sat down with his wife, Rhonda, shortly after the Ravens’ AFC divisional playoff loss to the New England Patriots, and they decided that he was going to turn down other head-coaching interview requests because he wanted to remain the offensive coordinator of the Ravens. But he acknowledged Tuesday that everything changed when his close friend and former teammate, Denver Broncos general manager John Elway, called Ravens coach John Harbaugh and expressed an interest in talking to Kubiak for his head-coaching vacancy. “I was very comfortable saying, ‘No, I’m going to continue this path that I’m on
and keep going,’ but this is a game changer. It’s as simple as that,” said Kubiak, who had declined to interview for the New York Jets and Chicago Bears’ head-coaching jobs, and said the Broncos’ opening was the only one that would have gotten him to leave Baltimore. “That’s the same word that I think I used to coach Harbaugh when we talked after John had called and asked permission to visit with me. This is where I got my start. This, like I’ve said over and over again, is home for me. This means so much for me. ... This was a chance of a lifetime.” Kubiak, 53, was introduced as Denver’s new coach during a news conference at the Broncos’ headquarters during which team president Joe Ellis called him a “per-
fect fit to be our head coach.” Kubiak, who had spent 20 seasons with the Broncos as either a player or assistant coach, replaces John Fox, now the head coach of the Chicago Bears. Elway acknowledged that Kubiak was the Broncos’ top choice from the day that the organization parted ways with Fox after a disappointing playoff loss to the Indianapolis Colts. “Our concern was did (Kubiak) want to do this again,” Elway said. “Once we got to sit down and talk to him, there was no question in my mind that he wanted to be the head coach of the Denver Broncos.” Kubiak started his comments by thanking the Ravens, specifically mentioning Harbaugh, team owner Steve Bisciotti and general manager Ozzie Newsome.
The Ravens hired Kubiak as offensive coordinator last January after Jim Caldwell left to become the head coach of the Detroit Lions. At the time, Kubiak was about a month and a half removed from being dismissed as the Houston Texans’ head coach, and he was still recovering from a major health scare. “That was extremely important to me,” Kubiak said. “It’s been a heck of a year for this guy, and without that organization giving me an opportunity at about this same time last year, I probably wouldn’t be here today. I really want to thank Steve, Ozzie, John, the players, the organization. I was proud to be a part of them and I appreciate the opportunity that they gave me. It was a wonderful experience. I learned a great deal.”
With Kubiak calling the plays, the Ravens set franchise highs in points and yards, quarterback Joe Flacco had arguably the best season of his career, and the team’s running game became formidable again. But in his news conference, Kubiak stressed how much he learned from the Ravens. “I really can’t explain the value of last year for me as a coach,” he said. “Being around John Harbaugh, being around that organization, being around Ozzie Newsome, and watching them go about their business, how they go about being successful week in and week out. I take all that as I move forward. I know that I’m a lot better coach now than I was when I left.” Kubiak now will assemble his coaching staff, which will
include former Ravens assistants Rick Dennison as offensive coordinator and Brian Pariani as tight ends coach. Also on Kubiak’s agenda is a sit-down meeting with record-setting quarterback Peyton Manning, who hasn’t decided whether he will return to the Broncos for another season. “I want to be the best support system that I can be for Peyton. We’ve had some great conversations and I want to have many more,” Kubiak said. “It’s easy to build a playbook for him. He’s been a master at it for many, many years. You’re talking about a Hall of Fame player, a Hall of Fame person....This is his time, his decision, and I need to be here for him in any way I can. That’s what I have planned.”

Men’s tennis ready for Baylor
Illini hope to avenge Sweet 16 loss to Bears BY CHRISTOPHER KENNEDY STAFF WRITER
The Illinois men’s tennis team‘s season came to an end last year in the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA tournament. It fell 4-0 in only its second shutout loss of the season. Both of those losses came against the same team: the Baylor Bears. Baylor was a thorn in the Illini’s side last year. Led by two top-15 players in Julian Lenz and Patrick Pradella, the Bears effectively shut down a highly-ranked Illinois team. Now it’s a new season, and after last year’s defeats, the No. 11 Illini are headed to Waco, Texas, to take on No. 6 Baylor in an early-season dual meet. “We have a lot of respect for their team and feel like we want to give our guys a great challenge here early in the season,” head coach Brad Dancer said. “We came here to win this match.” No. 40 Tim Kopinski played in both of the team’s matches against Baylor last year, falling to Pradella, who has since graduated, and Diego Galeano. Kopinski already faced the Bears’ best player this fall in the Round of 16 at the ITA All-American Championships. Then-No.1 Julian Lenz defeated Kopinski in a hard-fought match 6-7 (2),
6-2, 7-5. Kopinski said in the fall that he had his chances in the match but couldn’t finish Lenz off. Now he may have the chance for an early season rematch. Both Kopinski and Lenz kicked off their spring seasons last weekend. Lenz had a seven-match win streak snapped that dated back to the first round of the AllAmerican Championships in November. Kopinski went 1-1 against Memphis’s toptwo players at the Illini Invite in Fort Myers, Fla. The Illini finished 17-6 overall in the tournament. Baylor will see some familiar faces as Illinois returns every player from last season’s roster. But Illinois has also added some impact freshmen in No. 44 Aleks Vukic and No. 62 Aron Hiltzik. Both earned individual rankings after strong fall seasons and Vukic went 5-0 at the Illini Invite. The Illini have four players ranked in the ITA Top 125, compared with Baylor’s three. Baylor started its spring season with an 18-11 mark at the Sherwood Collegiate Cup in Thousand Oaks, Calif., last week. It faced some of the top teams in the NCAA, including reigning national champion and current No. 1-ranked USC and No. 4 UCLA. Four of the six singles players who defeated the Illini in the NCAA tournament are back this year for the Bears. While the Illini feature mostly American-born players, for Baylor it’s the opposite. The Bears only have two Americans on their roster and neither played a sin-

“They’re two different philosophies on how to build a program and we have a lot of respect for what they’ve been able to accomplish,” Dancer said. “They’ve got great players and they’re well-coached.” For now, Dancer is ready
to see how the Illini respond in a match against the team that eliminated them last year. While it’s still just the first dual meet of the season, Dancer says the Illini are in Waco to win. “We know it’ll be a long season; we know we have lots

Breaking down the favorites for 2015 Heisman
TCU’s Boykin can be next QB to raise trophy BY MATT MURSCHEL TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
Trevone Boykin is one of several players that burst onto the college football scene with their stellar play in 2014. The versatile quarterback springboarded TCU into the national spotlight as a possible College Football Playoff contender and while the Horned Frogs fell just short of the prize, Boykin showcased a potential that makes him one of my Heisman Trophy candidates in 2015.
1. Trevone Boykin, QB, TCU Buzz: Since 2000, a quarterback has won the award 13 out of 14 seasons and Boykin’s style of play fits well into the recent trend of winners. A strong-armed thrower whose mobility provides him with an added dimension, Boykin could build off a season where he combined for 4,616 total yards.
the College Football Playoff semifinals and the National Championship.
3. J.T. Barrett/Cardale Jones/Braxton Miller, QB, Ohio State Buzz: Regardless of which player ends up starting the season at quarterback, it’s a good bet that that player will have a tremendous season for the Buckeyes. An Ohio State quarterback has won Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year three straight seasons and look for it to be a fourth in 2015.
4. Leonard Fournette, RB, LSU Buzz: Fournette embodies the hard-nosed rusher that the Southeastern Conference is known for producing. As a freshman, he rushed for 1,034 yards with 10 touchdowns as his emergence late in the season put relentless pressure on defenses to adjust to his presence in the game.
5. Dalvin Cook, RB, FSU Buzz: Cook was another freshman who demonstrated big-game potential late in the season helping propel Florida State into the College Football Playoff. The Miami native rushed for 1,008 yards with eight touchdowns and figures to play a bigger role for the ‘Noles in 2015.
2. Ezekiel Elliott, RB, Ohio State
6. Dak Prescott, QB, Mississippi State
Buzz: Elliott galvanized his spot on this list after his tremendous late-season run when he amassed three straight 200-plus yard rushing performances in the Big Ten Championship,
Buzz: Prescott’s no stranger to Heisman hype after the junior helped guide the Bulldogs to the top-spot in the weekly rankings. However, a couple of sub-par performances late in the season
against Alabama and Ole Miss thwarted any chance in 2014. Perhaps a reboot in 2015?
7. Nick Chubb, RB, Georgia Buzz: Todd Gurley’s midseason suspension along with an array of injuries at the position thrust the freshman running back into the starting role where he thrived. Chubb rushed for 1,547 yards including a career-best 266 yards against Louisville in the Belk Bowl.
8. Cody Kessler, QB, USC Buzz: Kessler thrived in Steve Sarkisian’s offense in 2014, passing for 3,826 yards and 39 touchdowns. His decision to return in 2015 helps put USC in the hunt for a Pac12 title and makes him one of the elder statesmen in the conference this season.
9. Samaje Perine, RB, Oklahoma Buzz: Another freshman sensation who had a breakout season after rushing for 1,713 yards and 21 touchdowns for the Sooners. Perine led the Big 12 in rushing highlighted by his recordsetting 427 yards and five touchdown game against Kansas.
10. Derrick Henry, RB, Alabama Buzz: Could this be the year a running back wins the award? The last one to do so was Alabama’s Mark Ingram in 2009. Henry could add to that legacy after rushing for 990 yards and 11 touchdowns in 2014. With T.J. Yeldon off to the NFL, Henry’s role in the offense is sure to grow in 2015.

For many youngsters it was a fun night out, watching the 76ers NBA Developmental League team, the Delaware 87ers (known as the Sevens) compete, while also participating in other activities that were offered while the game was being staged. The players view it as much more, a way to lift themselves out of obscurity and into basketball’s big time. When the Sevens take the court at the Bob Carpenter Center at the University of Delaware, it’s at least theoretically a chance to get one step closer to fulfilling a lifelong dream, so nothing but the game itself matters. The players are willing to toil in relative obscurity, for little pay, less fanfare. For many, it’s a step down from their college days, where in many instances the gymnasiums were packed, the television lights blaring. “It’s a humbling experience,” said 87ers point guard Nolan Smith, a former firstround draft choice of the Portland Trail Blazers and ex-Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Year at Duke. Smith suffered a season-ending knee injury last weekend. It’s an experience many are willing to go through in order to either return to
the NBA, or get there for the first time. The Sixers are one of eight NBA teams that actually own their own NBA Development League franchise, although all 30 NBA teams have the ability to send players to its official 18-team league.
“When you get an opportunity like this (in the D-League) you don’t let it go. We love this game.” HASHEEM THABEET D-LEAGUE CENTER
While the D-League doesn’t make financial figures public, the highest salaried players such as Smith earn just $25,000 for the 50-game schedule. More often, the pay is even less. The players also have their living expenses covered. There are different levels of motivation for the players. Sevens rookie Ronald Roberts Jr., the former star at St. Joseph’s, has already reached the NBA, albeit briefly. Earlier this year he was called up by the 76ers and spent two games on the roster. “I did something many people never get the chance to do,” Roberts said. “I stepped on an NBA court.” Of course that isn’t good enough for Roberts, which is why he is playing in Delaware. At 6-foot-8, Roberts
can jump out of the building and he provided several highlight-film dunks during his NBA weekend. But he must work on his perimeter game, creating his own shot and defending smaller but quicker players. Despite the lower pay and profile, he is having the time of his life. “This has been great because I get to work on my game so much and we have great coaches and I am working hard, trying to get to the NBA,” Roberts said. And he doesn’t mind the meager pay. “Since I am out of college, I never made money so now I am getting paid to play basketball, and the best part is that I can work on my game all day and not have to worry about taking exams, or going to class.” D-League talent level comes in all forms. Some players were once projected to be NBA difference-makers but didn’t pan out, such as 7-foot-3 center Hasheem Thabeet. The second overall pick in the 2009 NBA draft from the University of Connecticut, Thabeet played 224 games in five NBA seasons, few of those games with distinction. Now he is competing for the Grand Rapids Drive, the minor league affiliate of the Detroit Pistons. “How many people get to play in the NBA,” Thabeet asked when talking about his motivation to compete in the minors. “When you get an opportunity like this (in the D-League) you don’t let it go. We love this game.”

Editor’s note: The Daily Illini sports desk sits down on Sunday nights and decides which Illinois athlete or coach is our Illini of the Week. Athletes and coaches are evaluated by individual performance and contribution to team success.
Kendrick Nunn (men’s basketball) — The sophomore guard scored 25 points against Northwestern, a career high, and 24 points against Indiana. The Illini went 1-1 during the week.

ILLINI OF THE
WEEK
s one of the leaders and top performers on the Illinois men’s gymnastics team, redshirt junior C.J. Maestas knows how to carry his team in more ways than one. During this weekend’s Windy City Invitational, Maestas had a standout performance against a field that included the two-time defending national champions, Michigan, and last season’s fifth-place Ohio State. He clinched the floor exercise (with a score of 15.150), still rings (15.400) and all-around (87.500) titles. Maestas is now tied for fifth on the Illini’s all-time list for most still rings titles with 16 and is sixth in allaround titles with 10. “C.J. is that guy who’s going to go out and hit,� head coach Justin Spring said. “You have some competitors that just live for competition, they get excited and then they rise to the occasion ... C.J. is on that level.� During the invite, there were times when the team felt skeptical about its chances of coming in first. Senior Jordan Valdez said the team was surprised when it heard the results. Although skeptical, Valdez said part of what kept the Illini motivated throughout the invite was Maestas’ performance. “They talk about momentum in football games and basketball games, but it really is a shift that you can feel when you have a guy like C.J. that just goes out and does amazing gymnastics,� Valdez said. “He pumps up the crowd, he pumps up the team and it rolls over into the next guy’s routine.� Gaining energy from Maestas’ routines at the Invite came during moments when the Illini were in need of a momentum shift. “The way the timing worked out in our lineup, C.J’s routines came up after a couple hard routines for the team, and that shift really helped out the next few guys,� Valdez said. While Maestas helped swing momentum with his title clinching

routines, he also is known to provide spark while being a spectator. When not competing, Maestas is known as one of the more vocal leaders who teammates can look toward for encouragement or advice about a certain routine. “He is able to rally the troops and really get them to buy in and feel excited,� Spring said. “You can’t lead a group of 15 men into battle without great leadership, they’ll lose themselves. C.J. is that (leader).� Maestas said one of the most important things he tries to accomplish as a vocal leader is teaching the newer members of the team how to never be satisfied and keep moving toward bigger goals. “I know what it takes,� Maestas said. “We won the national championship my freshman year in 2012. My junior year we went to Michigan and we took fourth. That was a tough pill to swallow. The sophomores and freshmen who are younger don’t really understand yet, but we’re trying to teach them that just because we won, doesn’t mean anything. We can always do more.� With key injuries to sophomore Chandler Eggleston and junior Fred Hartville, the Illini will be even more reliant on the performances and leadership of Maestas in the coming weeks.
