Garman highlights OSU’s early-season storylines

RACHAEL MALTBY/O’COLLYDaxx Garman has completed 57.1 percent of his passes.

@NathanSRuiz

SURPRISES1. Oklahoma State nearly

upsets Florida StateIn a game expected to be a

blowout, the Cowboys held with the defending national champions, falling 37-31, in their season opener. OSU players and coaches were still disappointed with loss, but it showed that the Cow-boys could exceed outsiders’ expectations in 2014.

2. Defense overcoming youth

OSU’s new-look defense contributed greatly to the upset effort. Featuring seven new starters, the defense has never looked overwhelmed, intercepting FSU’s Heis-man Trophy winner Jameis Winston twice, while hold-ing opponents to 11-for-45 on third down, the sixth-best among FBS schools.

3. Daxx Garman’s early success

Quarterback Daxx Gar-man has thrown 56 passes this year and hasn’t thrown

3. Special teams strugglingWhile kicker Ben Grogan

has improved, he’s 8-for-11 on field goal attempts this year. The sophomore is 7-for-7 from 39 yards or less, however, where he went 9-for-13 in 2013. Punter Kip Smith has shanked punts at times, while a couple of poor snaps against FSU gave the Seminoles great field position.

INCOMPLETES1. How good is Daxx

Garman?Garman’s numbers, as a

whole, have been impressive, but his completion percent-age (57.1 percent) is some-what concerning. Saturday against UTSA, he overthrew receivers on multiple plays, but was also hurt by dropped passes. If Garman can be-come more accurate, OSU’s Air Raid offense could keep up with any in the Big 12.

2. What is the team’s identity?

Even OSU coach Mike Gundy doesn’t know the answer, saying it’ll probably be another month before he knows how good his team is. The Cowboys are now

an interception. Averaging over 17 yards per comple-tion, Garman has turned the Cowboys’ talented wide receiver core into deep threats, with eight of his completions going for more than 25 yards, including Brandon Sheperd’s 87-yard touchdown reception against Missouri State.

DISAPPOINTMENTS1. Cowboys lose leader

J.W. Walsh to injuryGarman took over as

OSU’s signal caller due to a lower right leg injury to starter J.W. Walsh. Walsh suffered the injury against MSU and is expected to be out at least six weeks. With-out Walsh, the Cowboys are missing their unanimous leader.

2. Tyreek Hill still looking for first score

Tyreek Hill has run the football, caught passes, and returned punts and kickoffs for the Cowboys, but he has yet to score a touchdown. Hill, arguably the fastest player on OSU’s roster, has the most all-purpose yards among FBS players who haven’t scored this season.

ranked No. 25 in the AP Poll, with their only loss coming to the No. 1 team. OSU is either a team that overperformed against FSU or be a Big 12 title con-tender.

3. Will Cowboy fans get their first look at Mason Rudolph?

Walsh’s injury didn’t just push Garman up the depth chart – true freshman Mason Rudolph has now assumed the role of backup quarter-back. Though it’s believed the Cowboys are looking to avoid playing Rudolph in order to redshirt him, an in-jury to Garman or a blowout could force Gundy’s hand.

Blood flow restriction considered safeSavannah

Evanoff

@OColly

KAYLA HODGIN/O’COLLYAgriculture economics professor Brian Whitacre uses the training to maintain his muscle definition after an injury.

Surprise often ensues when someone suggests cutting off his or her own blood supply as an effec-tive means for achieving physical fitness.

But this is a new ex-ercise trend called blood flow restriction, and it has been raising eyebrows at the Colvin Recreational Center.

The first question that comes to mind: Is this safe?

Based on a Japanese exercise technique called Kaatsu, blood flow restric-tion involves wrapping an elastic band tightly around the top of the tar-get appendage and lifting weights. It is sometimes referred to as occlusion training because it par-tially occludes the blood vessels stopping them from sending blood to the muscle tissues.

Athletes and fitness enthusiasts are eager to try this modernized technique because it is an effective way of increas-ing size and strength of muscle.

The restrictive nature of this exercise, however, raises many safety con-cerns over its role in blood clots, nerve compression and the inherent risk of adjusting the strap too tightly.

Zach Pope, a research assistant for the health and human performance department, said although

new, much of the research done thus far indicates blood flow restriction can be performed safely.

“Occlusion training is not that different from resistance training,” Pope said. “It really just mimics a natural process of the body.”

Pope says it is safe to pause blood flow for short periods of time, compar-ing it to the way a wound-ed soldier might use a tourniquet to temporarily pause blood flow and then replenish it shortly with surgery.

Although the training is considered safe, Pope strongly recommends being careful if trying this outside of a research setting.

“It obviously is limited to the limbs because you cannot restrict blood flow at your throat or chest. That would get it banned from the Colvin really quickly,” Pope said.

Blood flow restriction increases hypertrophy, or muscle growth, because the muscle cells are so fluid-filled, they grow. In addition, the low oxygen level in the occluded mus-cle causes your body to recruit certain fast-twitch muscle fibers, which are larger.

Pope says this can be a very useful technique for the injured or elderly because they need to build size and strength of their muscle without being able to lift much weight. Restricting the blood flow allows them to gain twice the muscle lifting half the amount of weight.

Agriculture ecnomics professor Brian Whitacre is using blood flow restric-tion for just that reason.

After suffering from cartilage damage in the hip region, Whitacre has been using blood flow restriction for over three years to maintain the muscle definition he had before injury.

“You don’t feel like you are pushing yourself hard,” Whitacre said. “It is not as hardcore as typical body building exercises are.”

Whitacre began performing blood flow restriction with blood pressure cuffs until corre-

sponding with University of Oklahoma alum Jeremy Loenneke, who strongly advised him against this.

Loenneke, a researcher who has been deemed by some as the blood flow restriction godfather, was a willing resource and helped Whitacre to perform blood flow restriction more safely and effectively.

Whitacre says it is im-portant not to use blood flow restriction as your sole source of exercise. It should only be performed in addition to your regular weight training.

Whitacre has continued

acre suggests doing thor-ough research and speaking to someone knowledgeable on the subject before trying it on your own.

Pope says if you see someone awkwardly tying a strap around their thigh, knee or arm it is probably because they are trying this new fitness technique to gain muscle mass at a faster rate.

Blood flow restriction is still being researched heavily to determine its long-term effects and how it can best be utilized in physical therapy.

to use blood flow restric-tion himself because he loves the feeling he gets after training.

“It can be painful, but it is almost euphoric when you get the blood flow back going,” Whitacre said.

He does recognize that placing a band around your leg at a certain pressure is a guessing game.

“My friend once told me he couldn’t feel his legs, so we obviously stopped pretty quickly,” Whitacre said.

Although he strongly recommends it to others for maintaining muscle during injury rehabilitation, Whit- [email protected]


Thieves take advantage of Edmon Low

KaelynnKnoernschild

@kaelynn_k

KAELYNN KNOERNSCHILD/O’COLLYMost library thefts happen during dead and finals week, Edmon Low employees said. But unattended items disappear yearround.

Gerald Tracy III doesn’t leave his items lying around the library anymore.

Tracy, a sports media junior, said he had his Beats by Dre headphones stolen at the Edmon Low Library.

“I was in the reading room freshman year during dead week, and I left to go get a Red Bull,” Tracy said. “I was gone maybe five minutes, and when I got back, they were gone from where I hid them in my backpack.”

Tracy isn’t alone. John DeGeorge, project

manager for OSU libraries, said the library averages five to 10 thefts per semester.

“We find lots of times people will leave their back-packs, leave their comput-ers, leave their textbooks on the table and they’ll just leave,” said Bonnie Cain-Wood, communications specialist for OSU libraries.

Cain-Wood said students carry a lot of valuables in their backpacks — includ-ing computers, phones and textbooks — making the backpack a target item for thieves.

“Most commonly, it’s just someone walks by the

said the victim should re-port the crime immediately.

“What we hope happens is that as soon as someone realizes that something is out of place, not where they would expect it, that they would come and tell a library employee,” she said.

She said that once a theft is reported, library staff is alerted, and security team members look through the building to try and recover the item(s).

“Lots of times, if some-one notices right away that something was taken and they report it right away, we can actually catch someone leaving the building with the item and it can be re-

table and grabs the back-pack,” she said.

“When we start seeing more than one person re-porting thefts in the library, it tends to be dead week and finals week,” Cain-Wood said.

She said the library re-minds students to look after their belongings with signs and posts on social media.

Additionally, the library has at least three security personnel in the library at any given time to potential-ly reduce theft, DeGeorge said.

But the library’s measures aren’t always enough. If a student falls victim to theft in the library, Cain-Wood

covered that way,” she said. “Otherwise, they’ll work with OSU PD.”

Tracy said he reported his incident to library person-nel, but his headphones were never recovered. He also said he felt like campus police didn’t really take his complaint seriously.

“I went and told the front desk and they said they would be on the look out,” he said. “When I called the police they said the same thing, and that’s it.”

DeGeorge said it is unusual to recover stolen items.

“There may have been an instance where we got a laptop or two back, but a lot

of times, they don’t usually get the item back,” he said.

And the threat of theft doesn’t deter some from neglecting their belong-ings.

“I always leave my stuff in the library,” said gradu-ate student Pratik Cha-phekar. “I know it’s not a good practice, but I feel comfortable.”

Cain-Wood said the best method to ensure your personal items stay safe is to keep an eye on them while in the library.

“You just want to be aware of where your things are.”

Overcoming heartbreak: Fruity Delights comes back NataliePrice

@NataliePPrice

NATALIE PRICE/O’COLLYThe company has a food truck on Knoblock Street.

See FRUITY Page 8

A death of a child, a divorce and bankruptcy haven’t stopped Ricardo Salas from obtaining his dream; they have only encouraged him to work harder for it.

Salas, who was born in Mexico, is a master’s student at Oklahoma State University studying entrepreneurship. He is also the owner of Fruity Delights, a company that makes frozen fruit slushes.

These drinks are made out of fresh fruit and 100 percent sugar cane and

produced in Mexico. Fruity Delight prod-

ucts are sold on campus, at Meridian Technology Center, a few places in Oklahoma City and a lo-cation in Tulsa. Salas, 39, also opened a food truck that sells the fresh frozen drinks and is located next to Stonewall Tavern on Knoblock.

Salas is constantly com-ing up with new flavors of drink mixes. He hopes to find the perfect flavor that his customers will love.

“I am really excited that they use all natural fruit so it’s less sugar,” said Kaki Horan, a human and family sciences junior. “It’s just really delicious.”

When Salas first had

the idea to sell fruity bev-erages, he was trying to market another product: blown-glass pitchers. In order to sell the pitchers, he was going to bundle it with the fruity drink, but he later decided to sell just the drink.

Salas went back and forth on the idea of start-ing his own company. He knew he needed to take the risk and follow his dreams, but it was never the right time. In 2006, Salas lost his son in an accident. The loss made Salas realize there is no better time than the pres-ent.

“There was a lot of stress, a lot of (depression) and a lot of sorrow,” Salas

said. “I couldn’t deny the energy that was there, and I needed to transform it. Instead of getting buried in that pain, we decided to convert that energy into starting up this business.”

After months of com-ing up with a plan, Salas opened Fruity Delights in 2007. He had connections with dining services on OSU’s campus and started selling his products there. He also sold them throughout Stillwater, the surrounding area and to US Food Services.

“We had a great response from dining services, and we had a great response from the students,” Salas said. “Everybody was backing

me up.”Everything was going

great for Salas and his company until 2008. That year, the economy col-lapsed. Salas and his then

wife — who co-owned Fruity Delights — di-vorced. Salas lost every-thing and had to file for

Pool hall coming to The Strip

Being in the bar busi-ness for 39 years, Greg Cummings has decided the Strip doesn’t need just another bar.

Instead, Cummings is transforming an old vacant building, formerly known as Dirty’s Bar, into a pool hall.

Shots Pool Hall and Tavern, 421 S. Washing-ton St., will include 13 Diamond pool tables, a few large TVs and a bar, Cummings said.

“You can make shots and take shots,” Cum-mings said jokingly.

The same contractors that worked on Outlaws will be remodeling the building, he said.

“It will be very nice like (Outlaws) with very nice facilities, and it will be up to date on all its ADA requirements, and we’ll have the best pool tables you can have,” Cummings said.

The building, which has been unoccupied for three years, is undergoing a complete renovation.

Construction began last week, and Cummings said he hopes to have the

pool hall open before the spring semester begins.

“It’s time to get a little more ambitious,” he said. “It costs a lot of rent; we’ve got to get a business going.”

Cummings said he has co-owned the property since Dirty’s closed in 2011.

“It became available, and we just said it would make a great place to put a pool hall, and we just never got around to it,” he said.

“They moved on, it be-came vacant and we were able to get the lease.”

Cummings estimates it will cost at least $150,000

to open. The cost includes construction of a bar and restrooms as well as deco-rations and furnishings.

“It’ll be modern,” he said. “It’ll be neat and clean, and it’ll have new beautiful pool tables that are the best.”

Cummings said cus-tomers must be 21 to enter, and said he wants to create a welcoming atmo-sphere where people can enjoy the game of pool.

“It’s just (going to be) a building with some pool tables in it, and I hope there will be some people in it, too.”

bankruptcy. In 2010, Salas had to let go of everything in the business and call it quits.

“I had 43 machines and I had to sell them little by little,” Salas said. “Twenty of them got repossessed at one time. That was tough to deal with. I had put in a lot of time, just to watch it all be destroyed.”

Looking back now, Salas sees all of the trials he had to go through as a learning process. After he closed his business in 2010, he

started working for other companies that helped him to better understand the food distribution industry.

“Not only did I learn how distribution works, I learned how much money the food companies were making off of products,” he said. “That was some-thing they didn’t want to tell me (with Fruity Delights), and now I know exactly how much they were making.”

With the knowledge Salas gained, he decided he couldn’t let go of his dream. After four years of not having Fruity Delights, he decided to reopen his business in June 2014. The business has grown and is now a whole-sale and retail company.

Salas wishes to expand, but is limited because of the money it would take to do so.

“So we’re back now, June 2014,” Salas said. “We could not let it go. All the research, all the work done, we could not let it go.”
