Lee Corso’s head was missing and now has been found.

And two men face felony theft charges in the case.

The personalized mascot head that the ESPN college football analyst and former Indiana University coach brings along on the tours by the GameDay program was stolen Saturday from Oregon State University during the Civil War football game between the Beavers and Oregon.


According to the OSP, August Michael Zane Cuneo, 26, of Eugene took the mascot head from the memorial Union Quad, walked away from the area and hid it in some bushes until Alexander Joseph Westerberg, 25, from Harrisburg arrived in a car.

The missing oversized Corso head was recovered late Monday morning and is now in the hands of Oregon State Police.


According to OSP Lieutenant Jeff Lanz, an Oregon State University employee called late Monday morning, saying the mascot head was near his vehicle at his Harrisburg-area residence.


The mascot head was reported stolen at 3:23 p.m. Saturday by an ESPN employee. Valued at approximately $5,000, the mascot head was last seen in a large container box at the OSU Memorial Union Quad near ESPN transportation vehicles.


Employees were clearing the Game Day set when the mascot head was noted missing from its container box.


Cuneo and Westerberg were cited to appear in Benton County Circuit Court for one count of felony theft in the first degree
