Reducing energy usage

New addition to buildings will save three campuses money

BIANCA SMALLWOODSTAFF WRITER

A pilot project plans to save the University of Hawai‘ i thousands of dollars in energy savings.

UH has partnered with an energy effi cient company, Ibis Net-works, to implement a pilot proj-ect that would reduce the school’s plug-level energy usage.

Between February and May, Ibis Networks installed 1,232 InteliSo-ckets throughout Windward Com-munity College, UH Mānoa and UH Hilo. The energy effi cient sock-ets monitor the energy usage from electronics such as computers, printers and televisions.

According to Kevin Hause, the chief operating offi cer of Ibis Net-works, the pilot project was created to reduce each campus’ energy usage in an effort to save money.

“One of the largest challenges that UH faces is keeping its educa-tion and services affordable for stu-dents, and energy is a huge cost for the schools,” Hause said in an email interview. “However, there is also an opportunity to use new technologies to cut costs and make existing sys-tems and buildings more effi cient, saving signifi cant costs.”

Hause said that the system saves energy by powering down electron-ics when they are not in use, pro-vides data that can be used to create energy and usage policies, and uses the data received to keep track of device upkeep.

UH MĀNOA AND THE INTELISOCKETSAccording to Hause, the instal-

lation of 471 InteliSockets at UH Mānoa was simple.

“It’s just a matter of plugging the device power cord into our InteliSo-cket, which is then plugged into the wall socket,” Hause said. “Then the installer quickly assigns that Inteli-Socket to its location and device, and then the system takes over, immediately beginning to commu-nicate real-time data on usage.”

UH Sustainability Coordinator Mat-thew Lynch said that UH Mānoa’s participation in projects such as this, allows new ideas to be tested.

“Pilot projects allow the univer-sity to incubate innovation by test-ing promising new technologies in collaboration with key public and private sector stakeholders,” Lynch said in an email interview. “Collab-oration is really key.”

Hause added that it was due to UH’s efforts in achieving sustain-

ability that resulted in the partner-ship with Ibis Networks.

“The leadership of UH has tre-mendous vision for the future, and commitment to sustainability and being a responsible steward of both state and environmental resources,” he said. “As such, the UH system was a natural partner for this project.”

A MORE SUSTAINABLE STATELynch also said that implement-

ing projects such as the InteliSock-ets would also help more than just UH’s campuses.

“The valuable lessons we learn from pilot projects such as the InteliSockets can be adapted and applied to be replicated at scale so that we can maximize our for-ward progress on helping the state to achieve its ambitious energy goals,” Lynch said. “The state of Hawai‘ i has set a 30 per-cent energy effi ciency portfolio standard to be achieved by 2030.”

Lynch said the pilot project has the portential to save Windward Community College, UH Mānoa and UH Hilo a total of $40,402 per year in energy savings.

Under the University of Hawai‘ i at Mānoa’s updated budget plan, funding will be distributed back to instructional units based in part on student enrollment for the fi rst time.

UH Mānoa Vice Chancellor for Administration, Finance and Oper-ations Kathy Cutshaw said that starting July 1, 2015, UH’s Fiscal Year (FY) 2016, 38 percent of all new tuition monies will be placed back in the hands of programs based on student semester hours, majors and enrollment.

“This is actually groundbreak-ing for Mānoa because we have, in the past, not had a methodol-ogy that directly related any activ-ity and instruction with the money in their base budget,” Cutshaw said in a phone interview.

She said that the project is cur-rently in its fi rst phase and that she hopes to “roll out a more refi ned ver-sion” in FY 2017. However, Cutshaw acknowledged the very real possibil-ity that UH Mānoa’s fi nancial situation could change, altering the premise on which the budget is based.

“There’s a lot of moving pieces here,” UH spokesperson Dan Meis-enzahl said. “The state could increase its funding, it could decrease it. Electricity could dou-ble next year … It defi nitely is kind of a living, breathing thing.”

TRACKING TUITION AND STATE FUNDS

Cutshaw said that UH Mānoa is fi nanced by both a general fund, which comes from the state legisla-ture, and a regular tuition fund.

UH receives a “budget bill,” which determines the allocation of funds and their limits. In FY 2015, the system received $407.8 million – nearly 51 percent, or $206.9 mil-lion, went to the fl agship campus.

In the same fi scal year, UH Mānoa collected $208 million from tuition. Of that money, $24.1

million went to waivers, which are not required by policy, but are given to staff, graduate student workers, or athletes, for example. Another $35.6 million was spent on scholarships, or 20 percent of FY 2014’s net tuition. System assessments, or money spent on services like the student registra-tion system, risk management and UH Foundation overhead costs received $6.9 million.

The leftover $141.1 million from tuition combined with the $206.9

million and another $39.9 mil-lion went into the “core operating pool,” which was a total of $387.9 million. The pool is then divided among eight categories: instruc-tional units, instructional support, professional schools, research, research support, athletics, out-reach and core administrative.

DWINDLING RESOURCESCutshaw explained that since

2009, UH general fund revenues have declined by $61 million, while tuition revenues have only increased by $30 million, result-ing in a $31 million defi cit in UH Mānoa’s operating budget. Meis-enzahl said all this is despite the fact that the Mānoa campus’ enroll-ment and graduation rates have increased.

“The state is cutting us faster than we can generate new revenue,” Cutshaw said.

She pointed to several more rea-sons for UH Mānoa’s notorious fi nancial hardships: a major decline in enrollment, an unexpected $7 million cut two years ago from the state to which other campuses were not subjected, a $10 million in faculty pay raises that UH fronted the bill for without help from the legislature and a 44 percent util-

ity increase over 10 years, despite lower energy usage.

Cutshaw felt that the projected decline in enrollment over the next two years would be UH Mānoa’s biggest budgetary challenge; how-ever, she said enrollment rates were expected to increase the third year.

The continued cuts come in the wake of the Board of Regents (BOR)’s recent decision to cut for-merly approved tuition hikes from seven to fi ve percent.

Still, Meisenzahl said the system would make up for some of the two percent decrease in tuition fund-ing and there was still a chance the matter could change when it is revisited by the BOR next year.

Should the athletic department pay stipends to athletes?

Use the money to get out of the holeAGAINST

Student athletes aren’t ballingFOR

Student athletes at the Univer-sity of Hawai‘ i may start receiv-ing stipends in the fall semester, a move that new Athletics Direc-tor David Matlin said will show the department is serious. But, this move will only suck more money out of a department that is expecting an almost $4 million defi cit this year.

Defi cit in athletics has been a trend seen in 11 of the past 13 years. Matlin had told the Hono-lulu Star-Advertiser that he is talking to potential donors to con-tribute sums to help underwrite the stipends, which would help cover the costs of attendance, in addition to looking at marketing and licensing possibilities. If he is talking to potential donors, their money should go into helping the department get out of its defi cit.

FALLING SHORTIn February, the athletics depart-

ment released a report that looked at options to help save money. Some options included cutting men’s volleyball, swimming, diving and the coed sailing program. If ath-letics is in such a bad fi nancial situ-ation, any money going there should be helping it get to a better place.

The department’s accumulated defi cit over the past 13 years has totaled approximately $17.5 mil-lion. According to the report, the department has long faced a period of revenue shortfall, result-ing in revenue that is not suffi cient to support its operating costs. The department oversees 20 sports and about 475 student athletes, and yet, according to the report, it’s understaffed to support these sports and athletes.

The report also looked at how costs are expected to rise with new opportunities to spend on student athletes, and offering cost of atten-dance (COA) stipends is one of them.

“Not all schools need to adopt, but the reality is this: It’s going to be used against you in recruiting. Coaches are already leery of that,” Ben Jay, previous athletics director, said in a March Ka Leo article. “It’s already tough enough to recruit in Hawai‘ i.”

According to the Honolulu Star-Ad-vertiser article, nine of the 11 schools in the Mountain West plan to offer COA stipends, and one school has said it won’t offer stipends.

THE STIPENDSA stipend could be almost

$4,085 on average, and with 248 scholarship athletes, covering such stipends could cost $1.1 mil-lion to $1.2 million if all scholar-ship athletes received them.

The stipends would go towards helping student athletes with cell phone bills, laundry and transpor-tation costs.

With the university’s increased tuition rates, stipends for its stu-dent athletes could be benefi -cial. With taking classes and being devoted to their sports, athletes may not have time to take on a job to pay for extra expenses.

However, UH’s student athletes aren’t professionals; they’re stu-dents who have decided to commit their time to get an education at UH and play intercollegiate sports.

And although any student could use money to cover expenses associated with attending school, especially in Hawai‘ i, many of our athletes — about half of them — are already on some athletic scholarships. And although they may not be all full-rides, they are still getting paid.

Matlin previously told Ka Leo that this move would be in UH’s best interest, but with its athletics department already in a fi nancial hole, offering stipends may make things worse.

Imagine waking early each morn-ing for intense physical training, then going through a day of classes, then often playing sports late into the night. This is already a lot of dedication, but also add time for studying and sleeping. This is the life of many student athletes. Hav-ing a job while being a full-time ath-lete on top of this all is often not possible.

Therefore, it would be good for the NCAA and the University of Hawai‘ i at Mānoa Committee on Intercollegiate Athletics to team up and give stipends to student-ath-letes. That way, athletes can have fi nancial support to cover neces-sary costs while in school playing a sport full-time.

BARE NECESSITIESWhen you’re in school you are far

from having the riches of the world; bare necessities like food, hygiene products, books and transportation are often all you have.

Many UH athletes have full scholarships covering tuition, room, board, books and mandatory fees. That is the minimum for what is needed for school. Starting from Aug. 1, if the cost of attendance stipend kicks in, it would cover important costs such as transpor-tation, school supplies, laundry and miscellaneous expenses.

LET’S GET REALThis extra fi nancial help is neces-

sary because even if you have a full scholarship, you might still have to commute, wash clothes, use a cell phone and buy school supplies. There is nothing out of the ordinary that these student athletes would be entitled to.

Being a student athlete is as rig-orous as military trainig. Like mil-itary training, the sports program shares comparable values: struc-ture, unity and morals. The time

and energy these students put every day into UH, in both academ-ics and sports, to gain the same opportunity for education the rest of us have is physically demanding and inspiring.

NO HANDOUTS, NO EXTRASAfter budget breakdowns, and

considering their full-time involve-ment on the fi eld or on the court, it makes sense that athletes should be compensated for the rest of their expenses.

Because of the heavy require-ments of their sports, it is diffi cult for athletes to have time to work. In order to keep their focus on school and sports, they need extra help. They are playing for our school and we should be more supportive of them as UH students.

PROPER MANAGEMENT One concern that many might

have involves UH’s poor record of fi nancial supervision. How could we guarantee people would get only what they deserve?

Finances have to be regulated to avoid abuse. There should be strict accountability and responsible anal-ysis of the spending per student per semester to ensure the system is fair and systematic.

There could even be a need-based reimbursement for students who meet certain criteria.

FROM HUMBLE BEGINNINGS I’ve known a lot of people who

have played sports as students and it’s not as glamorous as it might seem. A lot of them come from backgrounds of fi nancial hardship and it’s often diffi cult for their par-ents to help.

It’s important to appreciate that some day these student athletes will give back to their communities and families, remembering their humble beginnings with gratitude.

OPINIONS

SPENCER LOWESTAFF WRITER

The University of Hawai‘ i Board of Regents has taken a worth-while risk in keeping Hawai‘ i’s only public university affordable for resident students. A little over a week ago, the board voted to reduce the tuition hikes for the next two academic years by two to three percent across all UH sys-tem schools. This is an especially bold move given that most stu-dents had already enrolled under the previously approved seven percent tuition increase. It’s also bold considering that such deci-sions were so far out of the board and administration’s hands.

To be clear: this is not a reduc-tion in the cost of attendance, but a limit on how much the price of tuition will rise for the 2015-16 and 2016-2017 school years.

Certainly, there will be a price to pay if the reductions do not play out as planned. Civil Beat, for instance, suggests that the reduc-

tions will cause unnecessary issues for the system’s schools. Regents and administration officials are making student welfare a priority. UH students are worth the risk.

STUDENTS ALREADY ENROLLEDPerhaps the noblest aspect of

the reduction is that many Fall

2015 students had already been enrolled expecting the seven percent increased rate. This is how we know it was not a cheap recruitment trick.

For resident students at Mānoa and the community colleges, the reduced rate schedule amounts to a fi ve percent increase, while for UH Hilo and UH West O‘ahu, the increase will be four percent over the next two years. This will be a welcome breath of fresh air for many fi nancially burdened students.

The decrease in tuition infl a-tion also puts UH systems back on par with the national average of year-to-year tuition increase, while leaving the price of in-state tuition below the national average.

EXPENSES ON THE RISEA decade ago, the nationwide

average cost for a kilowatt-hour of energy was at 9.34 cents; now it’s 12.50 cents and it’s expected to approach 13 cents by 2016. This pales in comparison with the prices on the islands, which are by far the highest in the nation with

an average of 27.23 cents per kilo-watt-hour.

Two-thirds of UH expenses are energy bills. Accordingly, most of UH’s expenses have gone up by over 44 percent and continue ris-ing. With such a huge chunk of uni-versity expenses infl ating, school offi cials fought hard for money

elsewhere. At the same time, state support continues to go down, in line with national trends.

LEGISLATION AND CUTSUH President David Lassner, who

championed the increase reduc-tion, credited allotments from state legislature for making the reduc-tion possible. In a press release,he stated, “I thank the legisla-ture and our campuses for work-ing extremely hard to ensure thathigh-quality public higher educa-tion in Hawai‘ i remains availableand affordable for all.”

In addition to receiving funds, budget cuts have been approved for the 2016 fi scal year. Students should hope that these cuts do not come in the form of a decrease in the quality of their education.

THE DOWNSIDENot everything is rosy for every-

one. The increase reduction seems to come at the expense of out-of-state students, to whom the newpolicy doesn’t apply, but still, like all students, would be burned if the reduction comes at the cost of their educational experience.

Out-of-state students makeup roughly one-fourth of theUH Mānoa student body and itwouldn’t be fair if they are disad-vantaged. In previous years, out-of-state tuition price has been risingsteeply, and mainland and foreign students have been signifi cantlymore impacted by the increases.

UH does have some reserves in case of a fi nancial emergency;these funds, however, are compar-atively limited.

A B O U T O U R V O I C E

During a press conference last Monday, Gov. David Ige laid out his plans regarding the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT), which is being built on the Mauna Kea summit.

Among the governor’s requests to the University of Hawai‘ i, which is responsible for the stewardship of the telescope, are decommissioning at least 25 percent of the telescopes by the time the TMT is ready for opera-tion and reducing the length of the lease extension request. Ige also addressed the significance of cultural voices regarding the mountain, which Native Hawai-ians regard as sacred.

The construction of the TMT has become a highly controversial issue and several sides have emerged to either support or oppose the project. While most scientists and astronomers favor the construc-tion of the telescope for scientifi c advancement, many Native Hawai-ians feel that constructing the telescope on the sacred summit desecrates the culture and values they hold on to. According to Hawai-ian cosmology, Mauna Kea is where the creation of people began.

Being sensitive to the different sides of the issue — both from a scientifi c and cultural standpoint — Ige found a fair compromise in requesting the University of Hawai‘ i to “do a better job” of its steward-ship of the mountain by decommis-sioning telescopes and reducing the lease extension.

He also requested for UH to return all lands not needed for astronomy to the Department of Land and Natural Resources, which

could come up to 10,000 acres. Aside from requesting the univer-sity to let go of some of its control, more cultural assessments and trainings will be conducted.

Ige’s plan of action shows that the cultural voice of Native Hawaiians does hold political power and significance. In fact, his willingness to postpone the construction of the TMT in April in order to listen to the different stakeholders and standpoints regarding the issue is a victory for citizens. While many of those protesting the TMT were Native Hawaiian and local, cultural voices on the pro-TMT side have also played a significant role in supporting the construction.

For instance, in a Ka Leo op-ed, Native Hawaiian UH student Alexis Acohido supported construction of the telescope not only from a scientifi c standpoint but also from her heritage, stating that “the people involved with the tele-scope’s construction are cultur-ally sensitive and are committed to the kama‘āina ‘o Hawai‘ i.”

Citizens’ voice is an import-ant component of a democratic society and over the years, social movements have played a role in impacting government deci-sions. The different stances on the TMT and Mauna Kea were both respectful and successful in proving that people willing to take a stand on issues they are passionate about can make a dif-ference. Regardless of what their individual positions on the TMT are, their voices and aloha con-tributed to our society’s progress.

Here is a guide for fi nding the perfect ride to start your summer off with a bang.

Finals are over and, as a stu-dent, you probably are itching to start the summer you deserve for all your hard work. Luckily, the 50th State Fair starts this Friday, May 22, and is open until July 5 at the Aloha Stadium.

The 50th fair has been tra-dition on O‘ahu for years and doesn’t fail to attract people from all over the island to come to its spectacular events. But, as a student, you’re probably won-dering what kinds of rides you should spend your money on to chase the stress away.

THRILL SEEKERSThese three rides are the per-

fect way to wake yourself up from your school slumber and start off an exhilarating break.

What is the 50th State Fair with-out the fan favorite ride Fireball? The Fireball is a classic staple for danger seekers looking to catch a thrill by going upside down at the top of a circular roller coaster. If you haven’t at last tried this ride once, then this summer is the per-fect time to cash in and try it.

Another adrenaline pumping ride that is bound to set your heart rac-ing is the Zipper. Imagine yourself being thrown in the air and fl ipped every which way possible. That is essentially the feeling one gets while riding the Zipper.

The fi nal thrill seeking ride at the fair is unquestionable when it comes to being able to elicit

screams from passengers is called Pharaoh’s Fury. This ride hurls pas-sengers in the air backward and forward, in a seesaw motion. It’s fun to see which side of passengers on the ride can scream the loudest.

FUN WITHOUT FEARFor those who want to have fun

without the worry of spinning or hanging a couple of feet off the ground, be sure to take a look at these rides that are enjoy-able and, more importantly, less frightening. Each one of these rides will give you a good time without the danger aspect.

For fans of the once great Music Express attraction, check out the Ice Jet. The Ice Jet mirrors the design of the Music Express with seats moving up and down in a cir-cle at fast speeds and is sure to be just as entertaining for those who loved the original Music Express.

For people who want a little twist and twirl in their life, the Super Siz-zler ride is another viable option. With music blasting while you’re being twirled around at great speeds, it’s pretty much impossi-ble to leave this ride without an adrenaline rush.

The Scooter ride, also known as the classical bumper cars, is another great option that is fast moving and allows the riders an opportunity to actually control their ride. This ride is fun because not only do you get the opportu-nity to hit all of your friends with a car legally, you also get to speed away from them without bumper car cops calling you out on it.

RELAX THE DAY AWAYFeeling lazy at the fair? That’s

fi ne too. There are numerous rides that you can relax the day away with that don’t require much effort on your part at all. When passing the 50th State Fair, there is always one big ride that is the most recognizable for its dazzling light display and classicality.

Almost every fair has to have a ferris wheel, and the 50th State Fair’s Century Wheel is no excep-tion. If you don’t need the razzle dazzle of the fancier rides, then this ride is a good one for you to kick back and simply enjoy the view of Pearl City at the top of the wheel.

The Wave Slinger has also been known for its bright lights and epic music. The Wave Slinger allows car-nival goers to soar in the sky, so to speak, in swing-like chairs as pop-ular music plays. Beware, for this

ride may be relaxing to some who love heights and the feeling of fl y-ing, but it’s not for those who are afraid of heights.

If you’re afraid of heights, there will always be one ride that will never change and will bring back the nostalgia of your childhood, and that ride is the Carousel. Rid-ing on horses going around and around, what is there not to love?

With all of these rides in mind, there is no limit to the ways one could have fun. This summer’s much anticipated fair also includes special events and a special performance by recording stars Fifth Harmony. So, why not try everything that the fair has to offer this summer?

“An expensive lesson.” Former Athletics Director Ben Jay

dubbed the newly dedicated Clar-ence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex in May 2014 as a costly and time con-suming project for the University of Hawai‘ i at Mānoa.

On May 15, a dedication cere-mony was held for the complex at UH’s lower campus. The dedi-cation ceremony was the offi cial opening of the complex that aims to provide UH with a state of the art athletics facility.

The complex may have opened its doors, but it is nowhere near completion.

UH claims that the facility cost a little over $16 million to complete and, while over budget, is worth the money spent. Unfortunately for UH, $16 million is not the fi nal price tag. Jay said himself that the track and fi eld need to be renovated, as the track is “beyond its useful life and needs to be replaced.”

Greg Logsdon, the vice president of sales for Beynon Sports Surfaces who Jay brought in to provide an estimate for the renovations, told Ka Leo in January that the renova-tions to the track and fi eld could cost upwards of $4 million.

During the ceremony, multi-ple guest speakers, including new Athletics Director David Matlin and UH Mānoa Chancellor Rob-ert Bley-Vroman, spoke about how much the complex will bring to the table for UH athletics. What was lost between the applause and the

shaking of hands between UH’s governing body was what really mattered: the facility itself.

In May 2014, Hawaii News Now reported that the press box in the complex had no electricity or HVAC. Not only was the press box not completed, but the scoreboard at the facility was still broken and needed to be replaced.

Seven months later, Jay told Ka Leo that the scoreboard was still not replaced and the press box would be completed in “about four-six months.” Construction takes time, as everyone in the state of Hawai‘ i can relate to. But when Ka Leo spoke with Jay a month later, no progress had been made.

Fast forward to May 15, 2015. Jay

told reporters that the press box and scoreboard still needed to be replaced and renovated. An entire year went by, and the press box and scoreboard are still unusable. For something that Jay and Bley-Vro-man called a “top priority project” for the university and its athletics

program, very little has been done to reassure the public that UH has its priorities in order.

Towards the conclusion of the dedication ceremony, women’s sand volleyball player Katie Spieler praised the facility for its effi cacy for the Wahine sand volleyball team for practice and how great it was to play home games at the complex instead of travelling to Queen’s Beach in Waikīkī to play. All of this is true, and the facility has done great things for the sand volleyball program, but what was glaring was that there was no rep-resentative from the Wahine soccer program or track team that spoke during the ceremony.

Wahine soccer head coach

Michele Nagamine was present at the ceremony, and had only good things to say about the potential of the complex for her team in an interview after the ceremony con-cluded. The problem with depend-ing on potential alone is that, as many athletes and coaches know, potential can lead to great disap-pointment and failure.

So far, the complex has failed to provide a proper home for Rain-bow Wahine soccer where fans and students can support their stu-dent-athletes without the hassle of traveling all over the island.

The women’s soccer team moved into the facility in August 2014, but still played their games against other collegiate programs at the Waipi‘o Peninsula Soccer Stadium. In addition, the team still prac-tices on the grass fi eld adjacent to the football team’s practice fi eld, which the public may recognize as the fi eld where UH graduates fl ock to receive their leis from family and friends after the conclusion of the graduation ceremony.

As for the T.C. Ching fi eld itself? The current fi eld is approximately 10 yards too small to play NCAA soccer on, which means that the fi eld is useless to the team right now. The playing surface has to be changed too, according to Jay, as

natural grass has to be put in place of artifi cial turf to avoid injury.

As Matlin takes charge of UH athletics, he will be tasked with fi xing these problems that Jay and those before him failed to take care of. Questions will be raised why the dedication ceremony took place and why UH offi cially opened its doors to the facil-ity when in reality, the real ren-ovations have yet to begun. This “expensive lesson” may have been taught, but it appears that UH has not learned from its mistakes.

Bley-Vroman called the Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex the “crown jewel” of UH athletics during his speech for the dedication cer-emony this past month. While itdoes appear appealing to those who pass by the front doors of thecomplex, there is nothing royal or extravagant about this facility other than its cost of construction.

Bley-Vroman did get one thing right, however, and that was using the complex as a perfect repre-sentation of UH athletics – over budget and in need of major ren-ovations.

Looks can be deceivingThe Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex is not as complete as it appears to be

This “expensive lesson” may have been taught, but it appears that UH has not learned from its mistakes.

KEN REYES / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I

The complex is millions of dollars over budget and that margin will only grow larger.

DREW AFUALOSTAFF WRITER

The AFC North conference consists of four teams: the Pittsburgh Steel-ers, the Cleveland Browns, the Baltimore Ravens and the Cincinnati Bengals. Although this conference contains a team that has won the most Super Bowl rings in NFL history, each team individually has their own behavioral patterns, making it harder each year to truly predict what may come out of their season.

NFL Preview:

The next team in the AFC North is the Bal-timore Ravens. The Ravens have been a very consistent team in the league with head coach John Harbaugh at the helm of the franchise as the Maryland based team has made the playoffs 10 times since the year 2000, and is only three years removed from a Super B owl victory.

The Ravens made the playoffs last year, winning the wildcard game against the Steelers. Unfortunately for Baltimore, they lost their momentum when they lost their divisional playoff against the 2015 Super Bowl champions, the New England Patriots.

In the fi rst round of the 2015 NFL Draft, the Ravens picked up wide receiver Bre-shad Perriman from Central Florida. Crit-ics have revered Perriman for his natural speed and athleticism and looks like a young Andre Johnson. Adding to the offense, the Ravens also selected sec-ond-round tight end Maxx Williams from Minnesota.

On the defensive end, Baltimore snagged defensive tackle Carl Davis, in the third round from Iowa. Davis was predicted to be a fi rst-round pick originally, based on his outstanding Senior Bowl week and top-of-the-line physical traits. Critics say he will fi t right in with the Ravens’ defen-sive line rotation, and was selected just in time since Haloti Ngata’s departed from the Baltimore organization.

The Ravens’ are set to have a diffi cult schedule as well and will also be the most-watched team nationally, since they have scored fi ve prime-time games. Based on their history with consistency and compet-itiveness, I predict the Raven will defi nitely end up in a playoff game, based off a wild-card berth.

AFC North

The Cleveland Browns have not been a threat to the AFC conference for a long time, and my prediction is that the Ohio-based team will stay that way for the 2015 season as well. The last playoff appearance made by the Browns was in 2002 against the Falcons and they lost.

The Browns future was uncertain in 2014 when they got the chance to select quar-terback Johnny Manziel or “Johnny Foot-ball.” The selection of Manziel seemed to give Browns’ fans the ray of hope they had been missing since Derek Anderson had that one good season under center back in 2007.

However, no one could really predict Manziel’s struggle as he tried to settle in at Cleveland. With no real connection with the Browns’ offense, the organization’s record was just as disappointing last season as it was the year before.

In the fi rst round, Cleveland managed to snag defensive lineman Danny Shelton from Washington in the fi rst round. After some inconsistent play from their defen-sive line last season, the Browns were in desperate need of a quality lineman.

Their selection of running back Duke Johnson from Miami in the third round was also deemed a big success for the organiza-tion as well. Johnson is seen as one of the most natural runners and with great hands and ball skills, Johnson is predicted to chal-lenge the team’s current running backs.

Even though the picks were more than impressive this time around for the Browns, they do not have the scheduling advantage this year as they did in 2014. They are slated to have a tough schedule playing against the AFC and NFC West, and are unlikely to be successful without some regrouping.

CLEVELAND BROWNS

Last year was strong for the Bengals’, going 10-5-1 and making it to the Wild Card round. Although the Bengals sur-prised many by fi nishing second in their conference and qualifying for the playoffs, they fell short in the playoffs once again. Now that the Bengals are heading into the 2015 season, they have picked up impact they feel will help them get to the same place they were last year, and fi nish what they started.

Some of their best picks include fi rst-rounder Cedric Ogbuehi, an offensive tackle from Texas A&M. Even though his ACL tear in the Liberty Bowl put him down a few picks, his prototypical length and quick feet give him the traits to be an impact player in the NFL.

Another top pick for the Bengals was second-rounder Jake Fisher, also an offen-sive tackle from Oregon. With a polished technique and solid pass protection to go along with his natural athleticism, Fisher is predicted to fi t right in with the Bengals’ offensive line.

Even though the Bengals recent history has been somewhat pleasant, as well as some smart picks in the 2015 draft class, I feel that they have a treacherous road ahead of them.

Questions will continue to circulate over the future of quarterback Andy Dalton – is he really a “franchise quarterback”? This upcoming season will be another make-or-break year for Dalton – it is said that second year quarterback A.J. McCarron has made signifi cant strides this offseason and could challenge Dalton in training camp.

There may be some hope that the Bengals can make postseason if they get off to a good start, but I predict the Bengals will start their slow descent to the bottom of the totem pole by the end of the 2015 season.

CINCINNATI BENGALS

The Pittsburgh Steelers currently hold the record for most Super Bowls ever won with six. Although the Steelers struggled for a few years — their last playoff per-formance was in 2011 against the Atlanta Falcons — the Steelers came back in the 2014-15 season, securing a spot in the playoffs, but lost to the Dallas Cowboys.

That being said, based on the picks from the 2015 draft class, I think it is safe to say that the Steelers are at good standing, with a chance to make the playoffs again.

Their fi rst round selection was outside linebacker Alvin Dupree from Kentucky. The team was in need of a pass rusher and with his size, speed and strength should be able to step in and make an immediate impact on special teams and defense. The Steelers also had second round pick Senquez Golson from Ole Miss. Known as a “ballhawk,” Golson had 10 interceptions in 2014 while playing in the SEC and is predicted to be the replacement for Ike Taylor, who retired after last season for Pittsburgh’s secondary defense.

As far as offensive picks go, the Steelers selected Jesse James in the fi fth round, a tight end from Penn State. Although some critics feel this wasn’t the strongest pick, the organization feels that their current starter at tight end, Heath Miller, can-not play forever. Therefore, they selected someone they feel can challenge the tight ends already on the roster, like Rob Blanchfl ower and Matt Spaeth.

Overall, the picks were solid for the Pennsylvania based team and although they have a tough schedule ahead of them in the 2015 season, I predict the Steelers have a good chance of making it to the playoffs in their conference.
