Kobach faces four separate lawsuits challenging various aspects of Kansas’ voter registration law. The law, which went into effect in January 2013, requires prospective voters to submit documentary proof of citizenship such as a birth certificate, U.S. passport or naturalization papers.

Kobach, a conservative Republican, has championed the proof-of-citizenship requirement as an anti-fraud measure that keeps non-citizens from voting, including immigrants living in the U.S. illegally. Critics say such requirements suppress voter turnout, particularly among young and minority voters, and that there have been few cases of fraud in the past.

“Oftentimes judges will give an attorney who has not filed something in a timely manner another chance,” said Paul Davis, an attorney for the voter who brought the lawsuit. “We will have to see whether Judge Robinson is willing to do that in this case.”

Kobach could ask the judge to set aside the clerk’s action, possibly on grounds that include “excusable neglect,” said Mark Johnson, another attorney for the voter.

But if the clerk’s action stands, it means the proof-of-citizenship requirement can’t be enforced, Johnson said.

The lawsuit contends the requirement violates voters’ constitutional right to due legal process and to freely travel from state to state by infringing on people’s ability to vote and to sign petitions.

It also contends the action Kobach has taken to verify citizenship status discriminates against people who were born or got married in other states.

County OKs cost-sharing plan for fire station renovations

By Elvyn Jones ejones@ljworld.com

Douglas County commissioners gave their preliminary approval Wednesday to a costsharing agreement with the city of Lawrence for an interior rebuild of a downtown fire station.

The 1950s era building at 746 Kentucky Street was built as a fire and police station. It is now home to Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical’s Fire Station No. 1 and Douglas County Senior Services.

Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical Chief Mark Bradford and Douglas County Senior Services Executive Director Marvel Williamson said the project will require completely gutting and rebuilding the interior of both sides of the building. The work would require the fire station and Senior Services to relocate for eight months to a year.

Williamson said the Senior Services side of the building would need work from top to bottom, and that hazardous waste issues such as asbestos, mercury and lead contamination would need to be dealt with.

The total cost of the work is estimated at $6.4 million. The County Commission was pre-

sented with an agreement county and city administrative staffs developed on how the two local governments would share that expense. County Administrator Craig Weinaug said the agreement would have the county pay 25.64 percent ($978,185) for the work on the fire station section of the building and 32 percent ($806,000) for the Senior Services section.

Commissioners supported the project and the agreement. They did, however, have reservations about Senior Services relocating into the county’s old public works building at 1242 Massachusetts St. during the project. They noted the county provided minimal funding for the building late in its use because it is slated to be razed.

Weinaug said the building was “functional” if less than desirable. The city would pay to make the site useable, which mostly would involve an intensive cleaning, he said. The building’s most concerning issue, he said, was the condition of its heating and air conditioning systems, which could require $20,000 to $30,000 in repairs if they failed.

Fearing a possible repair bill at a building slated for demolition, commissioners instructed Weinaug to

explore other site options with city staff.

The proposed cost-sharing agreement will be on the Lawrence City Commission’s Tuesday agenda.

Should the city agree to the cost-sharing proposal, and once questions of Senior Services’ temporary relocation are resolved, a formal agreement will be presented to both governing bodies.

Serial exhibitionist convicted Former city commissioner Henry remembered as ‘grand gentleman’ of lewd and lascivious behavior

By Rochelle Valverde rvalverde@ljworld.com

Former Lawrence City Commissioner Jim Henry, who during his time in city government was known for lending an ear to citizens, died Tuesday at age 82.

Henry served on the commission from 1999 to 2003, and his fellow commissioner Marty Kennedy recalls Henry regularly reporting on his conversations with Lawrence residents.

Henry “He would always take phone calls from the public and then he would always share that information with the rest of the city commissioners,” Kennedy said, noting that he recalled Henry being particularly concerned with providing good city services, whether it be the police, fire or street department.

Former City Manager Mike Wildgen also remembers Henry as a man always open for a conversation. Wildgen said that at that time, the meeting agendas and related documents were still handdelivered to commissioners.

“I’d take it to Jim’s and he’d welcome me in and we’d talk, not about issues necessarily, just about what was going on and stuff like that,” Wildgen said.

“That was the kind of guy he was.”

In an election profile published in the Journal-World in 1999, Henry reportedly began his campaign by attending forums, shaking hands and meeting neighbors. At the time, Henry explained that after often being overlooked growing up because of his small stature, he “couldn’t stand exclusion.”

“If I see someone standing over at the side, I want to go over and get them involved,” Henry said. “Because I’ve been there.”

Students who don’t meet those criteria may now have their applications reviewed by a committee. The committee considers factors such as strength of high school coursework, academic potential, diversity, family circumstances and the student’s ability to benefit from support available at the university.

Previously, KU and other Kansas Board of Regents universities all automatically admitted students who scored a 21 on the ACT (980 SAT) or ranked in the top one-third of their class, or had a 2.0 GPA in the Kansas Qualified Admissions Precollege Curriculum.

The goal of KU’s new automatic admission standards and committee process was to “shave off” the bottom 5 percent or so of students, Melvin

they would cause enrollment to go down, particularly for minorities.

That didn’t happen, at least not in year one.

KU chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little, in addressing the University Senate last week, called this fall’s freshman enrollment “a banner year,” especially since most other state universities saw enrollment decline.

She credited not only admissions changes, but also recruitment, marketing and financial aid efforts.

Not only did KU’s overall freshman enrollment go up, so did enrollment by minorities.

Overall, KU’s 4,233-student freshman class is 1.1 percent larger than last year, according to KU. Of new freshmen, 22.9 percent self-identified as minorities, a slight increase from 22.3 percent last year.

The committee process

may have contributed to the increase in minorities, particularly underrepresented minorities.

Of the 750 students admitted to KU through the committee process, 148 (20 percent) were black and 130 (17 percent) were Hispanic, according to data requested by the Journal-World. A racial breakdown of committee-admitted minority students who went on to enroll was not readily available, however, a KU spokesman said.

This fall’s freshman class — auto- and committee-admitted combined — has 367 Hispanic students (8.7 percent) and 182 black students (4.3 percent), both higher than last year.

KU’s incoming freshmen also have an average ACT score of 25.7 and an average GPA of 3.58, both record highs for the university, according to KU.

said. He said statistics show students at that ability level had only about an 8 percent likelihood of graduating.

Allowing students in to KU who aren’t ready to succeed ultimately hurts the profile of the university and doesn’t do the students a service, Melvin said.

That doesn’t mean the door is shut forever on those students.

“What we tell people is, KU is not right for you right now,” Melvin said.

He said the state’s community college system is a great place to start for many students, who can then transfer to KU when they’re better prepared.

Effect on minority enrollment In the years since KU announced it would implement the new automatic admission standards, many have expressed concern

Those were some of the highlights of a candidate forum at Eudora Middle School that was sponsored in part by the education advocacy group Game On for Kansas Schools.

Reed, a Tonganoxie city councilwoman, tried to set herself apart immediately during her opening remarks, saying she had heard people say, “that there didn’t seem to be much difference between my opponent and I.” “First of all, I am the moderate in this race,” she said. “My opponent has used the word ‘conservative’ or ‘true conservative’ on his website, on his Facebook page, on all of his literature and his mailers. I’m not sure what that means exactly, but what I do know is there is another gentleman in this state who identifies as a conservative, and that is Sam Brownback.”

He questioned the idea of linking a ballot question on the expansion with the construction of a mental health crisis intervention center, and said many 2nd District residents he had spoken to were also skeptical.

“The crime rate has rate has decreased significantly,” he said. “People are seeking alternatives on that jail expansion.”

Brinson said he would like to see more review of alternatives to incarceration, including studying the city of Topeka’s partnership with Valeo Behavior Health Care to reduce incarceration rates of those with mental health issues in that community.

He also suggested that the county invest more in mental health personnel and services,

nie O’Brien, a reliable ally of Brownback’s, during the Aug. 2 GOP primary.

The 42nd District includes much of eastern Douglas County, including Eudora, and part of western Leavenworth County.

But Karleskint, a retired superintendent of the Holton school district who now lives in Tonganoxie as well, did not shy away from the conservative label, and he defended his position as a fiscal and social conservative.

“I am a fiscally true conservative,” he said.

“I am pro-life. My opponent is pro-choice. She is endorsed by Planned Parenthood. I am endorsed

by Kansans for Life.”

On specific policy issues, though, Reed and Karleskint were not far apart. Both said they support returning to a school funding formula based on uniform per-pupil spending, and both opposed amending the Kansas Constitution’s language on school funding.

Both also said they support lowering or eliminating the sales tax on food, although Karleskint said the state could only do that as part of a broader tax package aimed at plugging the state’s persistent revenue shortfalls.

Meanwhile, Holland said he has opposed Brownback’s tax and education policies from the beginning of his administration, and said his GOP challenger Van Meteren, who was not present at the forum, was part of Brownback’s political base.

“My opponent, Ms. Echo Van Meteren, is married to Sam Brownback’s top political consultant,” Holland said, referring to Kris Van Meteren, a principle with the Singularis public relations firm. “With her, you’re only going to get more of the same usual happy talk coming from Gov. Brownback as regards to his disastrous tax policies while our public schools, higher education system and highway system slowly erode away.”

including mental health first responders to accompany law enforcement officers on certain types of calls.

Thellman, who is seeking her third term, defended the commission’s position on coupling the jail and crisis intervention center on the ballot. She said the position was developed after a three-year review of jail overcrowding and mental health concerns, which included a tour of Valeo in Topeka as well as other mental health facilities in Kentucky, Texas and Washington, D.C. The early design for the crisis intervention center reflects that review of best practices, Thellman said. It includes a detox center, a peer counseling area and other elements meant to help those in crisis recover, she said.

Bookings into the Douglas County Jail have remained steady, Thellman said, adding that the facility has other issues stemming from changes in its population since it opened about 20 years

ago. The number of inmates with mental health issues has significantly increased, while the jail’s female population, which hovered between six and nine inmates when the jail opened, has risen to as many as 40, she said.

Cuts to district courts have dragged out the time needed to adjudicate criminal cases, and state sentencing mandates have lengthened inmate stays, Thellman said. As a consequence, she said, the jail is beyond its 186-inmate capacity, and the county is budgeting $1 million to house more than 50 inmates in other counties.

“We send inmates to other jails far from family and the services they need,” she said, noting that the jail’s nationally recognized re-entry program that prepares inmates for life after incarceration is not available to inmates housed in other counties.

Trump a poor excuse for a man

EDITORIALS

Auto deal A new program at Peaslee Tech focusing on automotive repair is the result of a praiseworthy public-private partnership.

A

nybody who has had to have a vehicle worked on recently knows it is not necessarily a cheap endeavor to fix a modern car. With thousands of cars being repaired each year in Lawrence, the automotive repair industry is a multimillion dollar business venture in the city.

It is sometimes easy to forget about the importance of blue collar jobs like an auto mechanic, and the fine careers that such an industry can provide to area residents.

Fortunately, some community leaders have not, and they’ve created a new partnership that is worthy of praise.

Six Lawrence auto dealers have struck a deal with the leaders of Peaslee Tech to fund a new degree program for automotive technology at the Lawrence-based vocational school.

The dealers — Laird Noller, Dale Willey, Briggs, Crown, Jack Ellena and Lawrence Kia — have each agreed to contribute $10,000 a year for five years to fund the program at Peaslee Tech. Graduates of the new program can leave with a certification that can land them a career in what is becoming the increasingly hightech auto repair industry.

A good automotive technician can make more than $60,000 a year. Finding enough quality employees, though, has been difficult for area automobile dealers and other repair shops. Instead of simply wringing their hands about the issue, leaders have come up with a good public-private partnership.

Peaslee Tech, located in the former Honeywell Avionics building near 31st and Haskell, is a school that is supported by the city, the county, The Chamber, the Economic Development Corporation of Lawrence and Douglas County, and others. The money from the auto dealers will be used to fund many of the capital and equipment expenses needed to get the automotive technician program off the ground. A similar public-private model was used earlier this year when the leader of Lawrence’s P1 Group Inc. made a donation to fund a new classroom for Peaslee Tech’s heating, air conditioning and ventilation technician program.

Peaslee Tech is filling an important need in Douglas County. The school currently offers classes in carpentry, construction, HVAC, manufacturing and welding, among other subjects. The automotive technician program could begin next fall, once some final approvals from education officials are won. When Peaslee Tech opened its doors in the fall of 2015, it had about 100 students. Now it has more than 300 students.

The new automotive program almost certainly will grow that number, and Lawrence and Douglas County will be the beneficiary. The community is a better place when it has a diversity of education and career options for its residents.

A team hitched to a wagon came tearing along the street, at a fearful velocity. They ran as far as Simpson’s bank, when the pole of the wagon struck the lamp post on the corner, setting things flying in every direction, and freeing them from the wagon and almost from their harness.” l “Last evening a fellow bragged of being a rebel, and gloried in the fact. He was knocked down by a bystander, and would have been roughly used had not somebody dragged him out of the crowd.

But I have never, not ever, not once, heard a man speak the way Donald Trump and Billy Bush do in that 2005 outtake from “Access Hollywood” that was unearthed Friday by The Washington Post. You’ve seen it, I’ve seen it, alien creatures in Alpha Centauri have seen it, the astounding clip that required the august New York Times to use the f-bomb and occasioned a lively live debate on CNN over repetition of a certain feline synonym for the female genitalia.

In the clip, Trump speaks with casual crudity about his propensity for sexual assault, about how he kisses women without permission as though their bodies were his entitlement, how he grabs them by the pudenda like, one assumes, grabbing one’s dog by the leash, one’s bag by the handle or otherwise taking control of one’s property.

“And when you’re a star,” he says, “they let you do it.

Leonard Pitts Jr. lpitts@miamiherald.com

“

Forgive me if, as a guy, I take particular offense at his attempt to conscript me and mine as conspirators in his loathsomeness, to make guys human shields for his repugnant juvenility.”

You can do anything.” All while Bush is giggling dementedly along, playing Milhouse to Trump’s Bart Simpson — except that Bart has a better moral compass and Milhouse a sturdier backbone.

A day later, CNN reported on a 2004 radio interview in which Howard Stern wonders if it’s OK to call Trump’s daughter Ivanka “a piece of (expletive),” and Trump says, wistfully, “yeah.” It’s hard for me to

conceive of any father who wouldn’t want to smash the face of the man who described his daughter thus, but Trump goes with it.

His defense to all of this, echoed by his coterie of sycophants, is that boys will be boys. It’s just “locker room” talk, they say.

It ought not be news to anyone by now that the Republican nominee for president is a sentient tower of excrement in a red power tie. But forgive me if, as a guy, I take particular offense at his attempt to conscript me and mine as conspirators in his loathsomeness, to make us guys human shields for his repugnant juvenility.

Don’t get me wrong. I claim no sainthood for my gender. We are not strangers to raunch. And I’m sure your average server at Hooters could tell tales of male misbehavior that could curdle your milk.

But nonchalantly boasting about sexual assault? Casually concurring with some professional letch who demeans your very own daughter to your very own face?

Don’t put that on us.

There is nothing inherently male about that. No, that behavior reflects the stunted emotional maturity of a

then-59-year-old frat boy, a pampered rich kid who never grew up.

And how telling is it that a raft of Republicans, headlined by Sen. John McCain and House Speaker Paul Ryan, has withdrawn support for their nominee since the video was released?

They were able to stand with him through his bigotry, his Islamophobia, his bullying, his misogyny, his mockery of a disabled man, his endorsement of violence, his manifest ignorance and his general noxiousness, but boasting of sexual assault was the deal breaker? Why? Of course, those GOP leaders are all profiles in courage by comparison with the one in three American voters who still, astonishingly, consider this piece of scum worthy of the Oval Office.

Fine. That’s their right, and democracy requires no IQ test. But let them not rationalize Trump’s godawfulness by retreating into the fiction that this is just How Men Are. Donald Trump is no man.

He’s just a really poor excuse for one.

Will Clinton be able to claim a mandate?

By Doyle McManus

Less than four weeks remain before one of the most consequential elections in recent American history.

No, not the presidential election. Donald Trump has already lost that one several times over, through his serial attacks on women and minorities, the appearance of a videotape in which he describes himself as a sexual abuser and his overall failure to turn himself into a credible president-in-waiting.

Still at stake on Election Day, though, is what kind of presidency Clinton will be allowed to have — and that depends mostly on who is elected to the Senate and House of Representatives.

If Democrats win a majority in both chambers, Clinton will be able to pass significant parts of her platform, much as Obama did in 2009 and 2010.

But if Republicans keep their majorities, she’ll have to negotiate with an angry opposition in which the loudest voices are likely to revive the obstructionism they have perfected over the last six years.

President Clinton will almost certainly be negotiating with a Republican House.

And in the likeliest case — a Congress between those extremes with a closely divided Senate and a slim GOP majority in the House — the consequences are unpredictable.

Democratic and Republican strategists broadly agree on the range of possible electoral outcomes.

“

President Clinton will almost certainly be negotiating with a Republican House.”

The Senate is balanced on a knife edge. Republicans hold 54 of the Senate’s 100 seats; if Democrats net four additional seats, they’ll have 50, and can rely on Vice President Tim Kaine to break the tie.

The closest races are in Pennsylvania and New Hampshire, where Republican incumbents are struggling to hold off scrappy Democratic challengers. But Republican senators could also lose their seats in North Carolina and Missouri.

“We need to win three of those four seats to get to 51,” GOP pollster David Winston told me.

He said he was worried by a recent poll — taken immediately after the Trump videotape surfaced — that suggested only 74 percent of Republican voters were still supporting the nominee.

“If he comes in with 74 percent of the Republican vote, the party is completely blown out of this election,” Winston said. “He needs 90 percent.”

The House is more complicated — and much harder for Democrats to take. Republicans currently hold 246 of 435 seats; Democrats need a net gain of at least 30 to win a majority.

“It’s possible to imagine, but it’s unlikely,” Democratic pollster Mark Mellman said. He estimated that

Clinton would need to win the presidency by a margin of 10 percent or more for the House to change hands.

That’s not likely to happen; the last candidate to win by more than 10 percent was Ronald Reagan in 1984. (In the most recent polling released by NBC News and the Wall Street Journal, Clinton was leading by 7 percent.)

Why is it so difficult to flip the House? Redistricting, which guarantees that most incumbents can rely on loyal partisans to keep them in office. In the 2012 election, Republicans lost the popular vote for all House candidates by more than 1.4 million, but still won a majority of seats.

So President Clinton will almost certainly be negotiating with a Republican House — one, moreover, whose majority will be splintered into angry factions, proTrump and anti-Trump.

If her electoral majority is huge, she’ll be able to claim some measure of a popular mandate — even though some Republicans will argue that she won only because they nominated a bad candidate (or, for diehard Trumpists, because the election was “rigged”).

That would give her an opportunity to seek cooperation from pragmatic Republicans — yes, there still are some.

“If there’s a backlash against the awful nature of the campaign, there could be real public pressure to let her get a few things done,” Norman J. Ornstein, a scholar of Congress at the American Enterprise Institute, told

me. “She could pass an infrastructure program; that’s got support in both parties.

She could pass some technical fixes for Obamacare.”

But that’s about all — and that’s “a rosy scenario,” he added.

In a darker scenario, “Republicans will decide that they want to replay what they did in 2010 and 2014 — delegitimize the president and block whatever they can,” Ornstein said.

Clinton can help nudge the new Congress toward the first scenario if she continues to proclaim her desire to be a president for members of both parties, a theme she’s taken up over the last few weeks of the campaign.

Even more important, she could name a Republican or two to her Cabinet and quickly launch bipartisan conversations to search for common ground.

That won’t transform a GOP that will still be dominated by her fiercest critics, but it will improve her chances of accomplishing the changes she wants.

First, though, she has to win as many votes as she can. The presidential margin will matter as well as voters’ choices for members of the Senate and House.

No matter what Trump does over the next four weeks, no matter what new revelations about the candidates emerge, and no matter what the polls say, every vote will still count.

Giuliani relishes role of Trump defender ‘America’s mayor’ stands steadfast by his candidate, at times rivaling him in aggression

Rick Hampson @rickhampson USA TODAY

“Great men have big failures,’’ Rudy Giuliani said of Donald Trump’s business career.

The hero of 9/11, known once as “America’s mayor’’ and now as Trump’s most dogged surrogate, could say the same of his own career, which has as many ups and downs as the skyline.

It’s a matter of opinion where Giuliani’s latest iteration moves this erratic trajectory, but it cements his status as the Jekyll and

Hyde of U.S. politics.

Fifteen years ago, Americans watched as Giuliani, cool and courageous in the dust of the World Trade Center, consoled the bereaved and encouraged the frightened. Time named him Man of the Year.

This year, they’ve seen a different Giuliani — wide-eyed and high-pitched, hyperbolic and hyper-partisan, sometimes outTrumping the GOP presidential nominee himself.

Saturday, Giuliani said Republicans who want Trump to resign from the ticket were against him from the start, and “if you want change in Washington, you vote for Donald Trump.’’

The next day, several Trump surrogates canceled appearances on news talk shows. Giuliani went on. “Men at times talk like that,” he told CNN, referring to Trump.

“This was a huge event,” National Weather Service hydrologist Todd Hamill said of Matthew and its collateral damage. “This isn’t just going to go away this weekend. There is a lot of water out there, and it will take time for communities to recover.”

Stretches of I-95 and I-40 remain swamped and closed to traffic. More than 300,000 North Carolinians are without power, and 3,800 were in shelters Wednesday. Clean water is a problem for tens of thousands.

The U.S. Golf Association faces a terrible problem.

As it works diligently to recover from decades of discrimination against women in its game, it faces the dreadful reality of holding the world’s most important women’s golf championship, the U.S. Women’s Open, at a course owned by Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, who bragged in a videotape from 2005 that he could sexually assault women.

The next U.S. Women’s Open is scheduled to be held July 1316, 2017, at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, N.J., about an hour drive from New York City and a 10-minute drive from USGA headquarters.

It must be moved. A Trump golf course, no matter how beautiful and centrally located it might be, cannot play host to an event that is the crown jewel of a women’s sport, that draws competitors from around the world — not after all the awful things Trump has said about minorities, immigrants and women, culminating in the lewd and disgusting video made public last Friday.

It doesn’t matter that Trump’s courses have hosted men’s and women’s golf tournaments. That was then. This is now. His comments about women have been repulsive throughout his presi-

The sun has been shining in the blue skies over North Carolina for days since Hurricane Matthew roared across the Atlantic and slammed into the southeastern coast, but for some areas, the storm’s worst is yet to come.

Matthew dumped up to 18 inches of rain in central and eastern North Carolina last week.

The rain and runoff poured into the state’s rivers that are now rushing toward the coast, leaving destruction in their wake. More flooding and evacuations are on

Under cloud of scandal, Wells Fargo CEO retires, gets $134M Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY

John Stumpf, the embattled CEO of Wells Fargo, retired from the company Wednesday, effective immediately.

Stumpf’s move came weeks after he was grilled by two congressional panels over the way the bank handled an alleged scam where upward of 2 million accounts were created by employees without the knowledge of customers. The accounts were allegedly opened so thousands of employees could meet aggressive

sales goals set by management.

Stumpf, 63, resigned as both CEO and chairman. He had been CEO since June 2007 and worked for the company for 34 years. The fact Stumpf, the company’s top executive, was also the chairman of the board was brought up by lawmakers questioning why the bank didn’t act sooner to deal with the widening scandal. The roles have been split. The company’s president and chief operating officer, Tim Sloan, 55, will replace Stumpf as CEO. Sloan was head of the Wells Fargo unit that makes loans to large corporate customers and not directly tied to the alleged consumer banking

“I have decided it is best for the company that I step aside. I know no better individual to lead this company forward than Tim Sloan,” Stumpf said in a statement.

Equilar estimates Stumpf walks with $134.1 million from retirement. The package remains that large even after Stumpf agreed last month to a $41 million clawback following a grilling he

received from the Senate Banking Committee reprimanding him for not taking responsibility. He agreed to give up unvested stock but still owns shares vested in previous years.

“As one of millions of Americans who has a Wells Fargo account, I found the bank’s conduct outrageous,” says Carl Tobias, law professor at the University of Richmond.

It doesn’t matter that the U.S. Women’s Open is only nine months away.

It doesn’t matter how much planning has gone into the event.

It doesn’t matter how many tickets and sponsorships have been sold and would need to be refunded.

The USGA is not just another business running another golf tournament.

It is the national governing body for golf in this nation, with a mission to look out for the best interests of boys and girls and men and women in a game that millions love.

The USGA has focused particular and admirable attention the past few years on the game’s decades-long discrimination against women and girls, and it has made a special effort to encourage them to take up the game.

closed, and “our whole court system is paralyzed,” McCrory said.

“It’s almost like a surreal environment because since Monday we have had Carolina-blue skies,” McCrory marveled. “While we are having beautiful days, people are suffering.”

Some of the worst flooding has rocked Lumberton, a city of about 20,000 people about 80 miles from the Atlantic Ocean, after the Lumber River smashed its crest record by 4 feet. Helicopters swept up residents from rooftops while rescue boats motored down flooded streets to liberate residents stranded in swamped homes.

On Wednesday, the Neuse River flooded Goldsboro, and the Tar River spilled into Princeville.

Both cities had been under at least partial evacuation orders. In Greenville, 25 miles downriver from Princeville, thousands of residents were urged to evacuate ahead of the Tar River’s crest late Thursday.

“Water will overflow into the city, all the major roads will become impassable,” Hamill warned.

On Saturday, the Neuse River is forecast to set a record when it crests in Kinston.

“We want you to evacuate these low-lying areas absolutely and immediately,” Kinston Mayor BJ Murphy told WITN-TV. “The time to get out is now.”

Matthew made landfall in South Carolina early Saturday on its way up the coast after roaring through the Caribbean, where it killed hundreds in Haiti. At least 35 deaths have been reported in the U.S. The state’s death toll from Matthew climbed to 20 on Wednesday. Emergency personnel have conducted more than 2,000 rescues, including 80 airlifts, McCrory said.

McCrory said 3,800 people remained in shelters, many without power or water. He said a priority has been getting people out of shelters and into their own homes or temporary housing.

DAVID BERGELAND, COURIER NEWS

Golfers hit from one of the fairways at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, N.J.

How can there be any doubt about what the USGA must do?

It must dump Trump National and find another location.

The thought that Trump would host an elite women’s international sporting event is so offensive to so many that it’s not difficult to imagine another topnotch golf course stepping up quickly, and happily, with sponsors and volunteers readily falling in line.

When asked Wednesday to talk about Trump and the 2017 U.S. Women’s Open, a USGA spokeswoman declined comment.

We can only imagine the conversation occurring in the offices of USGA leaders — the worry and concern over whether, at this late date, they can afford to move the tournament.

There’s a much bigger question for them to ask themselves: How can they not?

alluded to Trump’s defense that his comments were merely “locker room talk.” Giuliani said the Clinton Foundation’s fundraising “is as phony as — I can’t say the word, because I have to be nice. I might say it back in the locker room.” The crowd roared.

“Rudy seems more into Trump’s presidential campaign than he was into his own” in 2008, says Wayne Barrett, an investigative reporter who’s followed Trump and Giuliani for years.

“Even when he’s got limited material, he knows how to argue a case.”

Better, sometimes, than the candidate himself. “Rudy is so much more articulate than Trump,’’ says Fred Siegel, a former Giuliani adviser and biographer.

“He’s a better spokesman for Trump than Trump.”

But Giuliani has supported abortion rights, immigration and an assault weapons ban. Is his crusade for Trump tarnishing his reputation?

“I don’t think he’s helping himself,” Siegel says. “His performance at the convention was so over the top. (Giuliani: “There’s no next election! This is it!’’) People I know who are pro-Rudy were stunned, scratching their heads. It was operatic.’’

Whatever its impact on his national image, Barrett says, Giuliani’s support of Trump “hurts him in New York,” where Hillary Clinton is likely to win overwhelmingly. “This is his home. These are the circles in which he moves.”

Evidence of that tension surfaced last week when the New York law firm Giuliani joined in January announced he’d take a leave of absence until after the campaign. Giuliani said he agreed with the move, but the New York Observer — published by Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner — reported that “the move was not voluntary on Rudy’s part’’ and cited a firm source that Giuliani “was strongly encouraged to take this action as the presidential campaign grows ever more heated.”’

RUDY ON LOVE AND WAR

Giuliani’s advocacy of Trump has at times been clumsy.

He claimed that there were no terrorist attacks on President George W. Bush’s watch (forgetting 9/11) and that Trump had recanted his claim that Barack Obama was not a U.S. citizen (when Trump had not). He defended Trump’s argument that the United States should have taken Iraq’s oil after the invasion in 2003 by saying, “Until the war is over, anything’s legal.’’

He said a Trump speech in August was “the best speech any Republican, at the least, has ever given,’’ apparently including those

by Lincoln and Reagan. When reminded, during a discussion of Bill and Hillary Clinton’s marriage, that he himself faced charges of marital infidelity, Giuliani responded, “Well, everybody does.’’

Referring to Trump, he said, “A man who has this kind of econom-

Women say they were groped

by Trump William Cummings USA TODAY

Three women are saying Donald Trump lied during the second presidential debate when he said that he never groped women in the manner he described in a 2005 recording, according to reports published Wednesday by The New York Times and the Palm Beach Post.

Jessica Leeds, a 74-year-old Manhattan resident, told the Times that Trump grabbed her breasts and tried to put his hand up her skirt during a flight to New York more than 30 years ago. “He was like an octopus,” said Leeds, who was 38 at the time of the alleged incident in first class.

Rachel Crooks told the Times that Trump forcibly kissed her when she met him outside a Trump Tower elevator in 2005. She was a 22year-old receptionist at a real estate investment firm at the time.

Mindy McGillivray, now 36, told the Palm Beach Post that Trump grabbed her butt at his Mar-a-Lago estate in 2003.

Trump communications adviser Jason Miller called the story “a completely false, coordinated character assassination against Mr. Trump” in a statement Wednesday.

Rudy Giuliani introduces Donald Trump during a campaign event at Trask Coliseum on Aug. 9 in Wilmington, N.C. ic genius is a lot better for the United States than a woman, and the only thing she’s ever produced is a lot of work for the FBI checking out her emails.”

None of these gaffes rules Giuliani out of the Surrogates Hall of Fame. Presumably, he prefers the Gettysburg Address to any of Trump’s and hasn’t forgotten what year 9/11 occurred. As for infidelity, he later said he was talking about lies and other sins in general.

Barrett and Siegel (who calls Giuliani the city’s greatest mayor) agree that he isn’t much of a politician. In Giuliani’s 2008 bid for the GOP nomination, Siegel recalls, “he started out in the stratosphere. The more he campaigned, the worse things got.’’ He spent $65 million and won not a single convention delegate.

THE THREE APOLOGISTS

Giuliani is one of three key Trump surrogates. Politically, all have seen better days. uChris Christie: Once the hope of moderate Northeastern Republicans, the New Jersey governor ended a disastrous presidential campaign after coming in sixth in the New Hampshire primary.

This fall, he’s been the offstage villain at the trial of two former aides accused of blocking George Washington Bridge traffic to punish a political opponent. uNewt Gingrich: The former House speaker was summarily deposed by his colleagues as speaker 17 years ago.

Lately, Gingrich has been straying off message. He told Fox News host Sean Hannity that the end of September was a “lost week’’ for Trump that “has shaken his own supporters.’’

Of the three, Giuliani may have the most to offer, most to gain and

least to lose. “His reputation is pretty much set in stone, no matter what happens,’’ says Brigid Harrison, a political analyst who teaches at Montclair State University in northern New Jersey.

She says the three surrogates are crucial because, unlike most nominees, Trump does not have lots of senators and governors working for him in their states.

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker “would be an articulate surrogate,’’ Siegel says, “if he didn’t hate Trump’s guts.’’

Giuliani plays another role in the campaign: adviser. He attended and spoke up at Trump’s first national security briefing as a presidential nominee and his meeting with Mexican officials.

Giuliani’s motives have been subject of much speculation. Supporters say he’s helping an old friend (Trump, whose last wedding he attended and whose father he eulogized); hurting an old enemy (Clinton, whom he almost opposed for U.S. Senate in 2000 until he was diagnosed with prostate cancer); and shaping a presidential campaign — and potentially a presidency.

“He adds policy heft, especially on homeland security and crime,’’ Siegel says. “And he’s a top-notch manager.’’ Even if Trump loses, if President Clinton falters, “he can say, ‘I told you so!’ ” At the end of World War II, an editor gave this advice to Winston Churchill (whose checkered career Giuliani compares to Trump’s): Run non-partisan in the next election rather than as head of the Conservative Party, and retire shortly thereafter.

Churchill refused. “I fight for my corner,’’ he said. “I leave when the pub closes.’’

This year, Rudy Giuliani fights for his corner. And the pub is still open.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY

Uncertainty among small-business owners is at its highest level in 42 years, according to a new monthly survey from the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB).

What’s to blame for the rising angst? A turbulent, unpredictable presidential campaign and an economy that can’t accelerate out of slow-growth mode.

“Our data,” NFIB President and CEO Juanita Duggan said in a press release, “has been showing for months that growing numbers of small business owners are anxious about the future and that the cause of their anxiety is the inability to predict what government will do next to make their lives harder.”

The NFIB Uncertainty Index measures the degree to which business owners can anticipate future events and how that affects their behavior, the NFIB says. The number of small-business owners in the past two months who said they “don’t know” where the economy is headed has reached the highest level in 42 years.

NFIB chief economist Bill Dunkelberg says high levels of 5-day avg.: -0.37 uncertainty could have a “chilling avg.: which 5.46 effect” on 6-month businesses, AAPL could cause Largest them toholding: delay hiring Mostplans. bought: GILD or new spending Mostconfident sold: AAPL about “Being fairly an outcome, good or bad, allows planning to occur,” he said. “Having no clear direction on which to base a decision generally puts the decision on hold.”

Stocks are trading near “extreme” levels not seen in 15 years and approaching tech-bubble proportions, Bank of America declared on Tuesday.

It’s a bold warning to investors already worried they’re paying too much for stocks but who may not realize by how much.

There are now eight stocks in the Standard & Poor’s 500 index, including energy companies such

as Range Resources, video streamer Netflix and online retail giant Amazon that are trading at a whopping 100 times or more their future expected profit, according to a USA TODAY analysis of data from S&P Global Market Intelligence.

These values are based on the companies’ expected earnings over the upcoming four quarters.

All told, investors are paying $17.40 for a claim to every dollar of what companies in the S&P 500 are expected to earn over the next 12 months on a median basis.

IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY WHO’S CELEBRATING TODAY?

Ben Affleck’s new thriller, The Accountant, plays up the positives in portraying an adult with autism: His character Christian Wolff is a math savant and genius bookkeeper with movie-star looks to boot, despite that dorky pocket protector.

But Wolff’s line of work — combing through the books for powerful crime families, and his use of multiple military-style firearms — required filmmakers to walk a careful line in the action film, opening Friday in theaters nationwide.

“Any opportunity to shine a light on this world is important,” says Ernie Merlan, executive director of Exceptional Minds, a non-profit vocational center for young adults on the autism specCHUCK ZLOTNICK, WARNER BROS. trum in Sherman Oaks, Calif. “My Ben Affleck’s Christian Wolff is a math genius, but he has another, more lethal, set of skills. only concern is this is a Hollywood shoot-’em-up like we’re Affleck’s accountant takes out used to, but this time it’s a protagsinister figures with kill shots to onist who has autism, with guns.” the head, but “what I think was Director Gavin O’Connor says well-done was that there was an the film was driven by the chalexplanation here,” Stephens says. lenge of a protagonist “that’s difTo protect him from bullying, ferent” and was cognizant of the Wolff’s father instills a fighting world he was entering. mind-set that evolves into a “Certainly, I had conversastrong sense of self-preservation tions about the potential perin adulthood. spective people could have on this “He’s not out there randomly character,” O’Connor says. “But I killing people,” Stephens says. took great sensitivity making sure Affleck, who says he felt deep the script was bulletproof so that responsibility in taking on the the audience would understand role, watched “a lot of documenwhat’s motivating the violence.

Ben Affleck brings needed nuance to old-fashioned brains and brawn as an action hero with high-functioning autism in The MOVIE REVIEW Accountant.

BRIAN Directed by Gavin TRUITT O’Connor (Warrior), the thriller (eeeE out of four; rated R; in theaters nationwide Friday) lets Affleck showcase the same physicality he has as Hollywood’s Batman, though math savant Christian Wolff is a different kind of dark knight. He’s a good-hearted guy who hires himself out to the shadiest groups on the planet, but his complex character motivations aren’t quite as simple.

Chris is a riddle wrapped in an enigma: He shows little emotion but is extremely honest in doing his work efficiently and quietly.

The guy hides in plain sight as an ordinary buttoned-up CPA but has a whole secret life, from his criminal clientele to the Airstream trailer that holds his most prized possessions (among them, an original Jackson Pollock painting and a lightsaber signed by George Lucas).

At his new gig at a high-profile

CHUCK ZLOTNICK

Ben Affleck stars as Christian Wolff, a math savant with mad fighting skills, in The Accountant. robotics company, his reserved and stoic manner stymies junior accountant Dana Cummings (Anna Kendrick). She’s the one who found the financial inconsistency that led to tech bigwig Lamar Black (John Lithgow) hiring Chris to uncook his books and figure out what happened, but Chris’ discoveries end up putting both him and Dana in danger. Luckily, Chris is a crack shot, boasts bonebreaking fighting skills and has a mean protective streak.

Other characters find themselves on a collision course with Chris’ life: Treasury agent Marybeth Madina (Cynthia AddaiRobinson) is tasked by her boss

(J.K. Simmons) to find the mysterious accountant; hitman Brax (Jon Bernthal) leaves a trail of bodies while targeting Dana.

Pretty much everybody has a host of secrets, most of which are frustratingly backloaded. Even the reasoning behind why the otherwise heroic Chris cozies up to some seriously bad people makes a certain amount of sense yet leaves the viewer a little conflicted about him as a true good guy.

O’Connor creates some intriguing action scenes and captures nice chemistry between his two math-loving main characters and the couple of feds especially.

But where The Accountant really

succeeds is exploring the emotions and coping mechanisms of a protagonist on the autism spectrum, plot points not often seen in the macho action genre.

Chris’ origin story is shown through flashbacks and they involve a scene that parents of developmentally challenged children will find relatable. Young Chris is taken to a New England neuroscience center, where he meets a doctor who doesn’t want to put a label on the child’s autism, and the father worries — though not in the most positive fashion — about how it will affect the rest of his boy’s life.

Affleck’s performance is action-packed but also utilizes his acting chops to present Chris’ engaging grown-up idiosyncrasies, including his daily regimen of heavy metal and Zoloft, the way he blows on his hands before he eats and the overall over-organization of his life.

When he has to go on the run, Chris makes sure to take his ultra-valuable Superman comic book — picking up a Batman issue would have been too on the nose — and while trivial in one sense, it’s also an important nod to the hero he yearns to be. Little details like that in The Accountant add up to Affleck and company being the right folks for this job.

Dear Annie: On one day’s notice, my husband’s college friend asked whether he could “crash” with us for two nights. I assumed that meant he was coming to town on other business and just needed a place to sleep — which would have been OK, even though I’m up against a work deadline, because I wouldn’t have had to be a proper host.

When he arrived holding a suitcase that looked large enough for a monthlong cruise, I got a little nervous.

Now he’s been here for five days. And aside from a couple of hours here and there, he hasn’t left the house.

He’s just been hanging out in our living room.

I work from home, and he keeps coming into my office to chat during the day and ask

Paranormal ‘Falling Water’ to debut It’s not entirely clear who or what is pulling the oars on “Falling Water” (9 p.m., USA), an enjoyably murky supernatural thriller debuting tonight.

“Water” follows the peculiar, overlapping dream lives of several characters. Tess (Lizzie Brochere, “American Horror Story”) is a trend-spotter with the skittish personality of a feral cat. When not picking out next year’s best-selling colors and images, she’s tortured by nightmares that she gave birth only to have the baby stolen in the delivery room.

A New York City policeman, Taka (Will Yun Lee), has haunting dreams that blend with his waking reality when he’s called on to investigate a mysterious death in a posh hotel that may be linked to a suicide cult.

Unfortunately, “Water” lurches into more obvious territory when Tess is enlisted by an Elon Musk-type to participate in an experiment to find powerful and profitable ways to harness the collective unconscious.

This story, of an unstable and sensitive soul asked (on a subway, no less) to “hack” into the very nature of perceived reality, may sound a little familiar. Is Tess “Mrs. Robot”? USA certainly hopes so. “Water” certainly offers enough tantalizing mysteries to hook viewers for additional episodes.

Writer/director/actor Christopher Guest reunites his band of ensemble actors for the loosely scripted, improvisational comedy movie “Mascots,” now streaming on Netflix.

Just as “Best in Show” centered on a dog show, much of this absurdist look at the subculture of sports mascots takes place at the ceremonies for the “Fluffy” award.

Look for familiar faces from the troupe, including Guest, Jane Lynch, Parker Posey, Fred Willard, Ed Begley Jr., Bob Balaban, Jennifer Coolidge, Harry Shearer and Chris O’Dowd.

Jayhawks to debut new look — an homage to the early days of KU — at homecoming

adidas/Kansas Athletics

KANSAS FOOTBALL AND ADIDAS UNVEILED new “limestone” alternate uniforms for the Jayhawks on Wednesday. KU will wear the new uniforms and helmets, inspired by the “Rock Chalk” chant, Oct. 22, versus Oklahoma State.

basmith@ljworld.com

T

he University of Kansas football team will have a new look when it takes the field Oct. 22 for its homecoming game against Oklahoma State.

Adidas and Kansas Athletics revealed Wednesday what they’ve branded as the Jayhawks’ “limestone” alternate uniforms and helmets.

The special edition threads with a retro feel are said to be inspired by KU’s “Rock Chalk, Jayhawk” chant, which originated in the 1880’s. At the time, the university’s geology club created the cheer, paying homage to limestone structures on campus, such as the Campanile World War II Memorial. Accordingly, the adidas “primeknit” compression uniforms were designed based around a limestone theme, paying homage to KU’s tradition, as well as local geology.

“Drawing upon the color and

Jackson makes bold but admirable statement

Kansas volleyball throws block party, sweeps Kansas State University

F

ive tiny words on the cover of USA Today’s College Basketball preview section figure to get all kinds of attention across the country and particularly in Lawrence.

With freshman guard Josh Jackson seated on the Allen Fieldhouse bleachers and dominating the cover, the words “Title Talk” appear just above his left shoulder.

Below that, in white text, is a quote from Jackson, who says, in no uncertain terms, “We’re trying to go undefeated.”

It’s an ambitious goal given KU’s challenging schedule, which features games against Top 25 foes Duke and Indiana right out of the gate. And it’s exactly the kind of thing Kansas Jackson fans should want to hear from Jackson and anyone else on this team.

Somewhere between Joe Namath’s Super Bowl guarantee and the dawn of the insanely politically correct world we now operate in, gunning to be the best became an anger-inducing exercise.

“You’re not supposed to say that,” people will moan.

“Who does he think he is?” others will ask. “Good luck with that, man. I hope you lose every game now,” still others will say.

Heck, even some Kansas fans are probably upset by the quote. You know the type. The ones who think words on a magazine cover or uttered into a micro-

he Kansas volleyball team looked at times early in the season in opening sets at Horejsi Center as if it were operating under the pressure of trying to justify its lofty ranking, its homecourt streak of dominance, its status as a program coming off of a Final Four appearance.

Not the case in Wednesday night’s match against rival Kansas State. Not even close.

Kansas came out loose, confident and downright nasty on its way to 25-15, 25-20, 25-23 sweep of the Wildcats, making it eight victories for the Jayhawks in the past nine matches between the intra-state rivals.

K-State’s Katie Reininger scored the night’s first point with a kill. A few blinks later, Kansas had built a 9-1 lead by dominating at the net.

Kelsie Payne’s rocket tied the score and the next four points came from Tayler Soucie taking turns teaming on blocks with Payne and emerging freshman Jada Burse.

“We definitely worked on coaches hitting into us, running K-State’s offense, so I think we had a really good idea of what they were going to do,” Payne said.

Sweet music to a coach’s ears.

“Sometimes you wonder if they’re ever listening to a scouting report, but that blocking display was pretty impressive,” Kansas coach Ray Bechard said.

“Obviously, that set the tone.

Spiking’s an intimidating fundamental. Serving’s an intimidating fundamental. But when you block for points like that, that can really get everything about your team and the game going.”

The flurry of points from blocks juiced the customary sellout crowd and the players themselves.

“I’d rather block somebody than get a kill any day,” Burse

said. “I like it way better.”

Madison Rigdon watched it happen from the back row.

“That pumped everybody up,” Rigdon said. “That was super exciting. To go 9 and 1 was like, incredible. I was just back there like, ‘Yeah, guys, good job!’ I was chillin’ and they did a great job.”

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

It didn’t take Rigdon long to go from chillin’ to killin’. Rigdon led the Jayhawks (16-2 overall, 5-1 in the Big 12, No. 6 in the nation) with 14 kills and had a .379 hitting percentage an eight digs.

Payne had 11 kills, a .296 hitting percentage, six digs and was in on four blocks. Soucie contributed 11 kills, .a 409 hitting percentage and six blocks.

Kansas has come to expect those sorts of performances, as well as smart decisions, sound defense and accurate passing from superior setter Ainise Havili.

Given that, the most significant development of the night might have involved the improved play from Burse, the talented freshman from DeSoto, Texas.

“Jada had maybe one error tonight,” Bechard said. “In a high-level match like this, for a freshman, we’re proud of her for sure.”

The Jayhawks wore “Root for Scoot” shirts in warmups to honor academic counselor Scott

Chicago (ap) — Best in the majors this season, the Chicago Cubs cleared their first big October hurdle. Now, they wait to see who’s next.

The Cubs advanced to the NL Championship Series for the second straight year by knocking out the San Francisco Giants in a thrilling four-game NLDS. They will face the winner of today’s Game 5 between the Washington Nationals and Los Angeles Dodgers in what they hope will be another step toward the World Series championship that has eluded the franchise since 1908.

Game 1 is at Wrigley Field on Saturday.

“I think it validates on a lot of different levels the job that we have done to this point,” manager Joe Maddon said.

“I think if you’re a player on this particular team within the organization, it’s getting to the point now you want to expect to get to the postseason and you want to expect to get deeply into the postseason. It also speaks to the way we played.”

Chicago is looking for more this time after getting swept by the New York Mets in the NLCS a year ago.

The Cubs dominated like no other team in the majors this season, running away with the NL Central championship. They got off to a 25-6 start and spent all but two days in first place on the way to a major league-best 103-58 record — the most wins by the Cubs since they finished the 1910 season with 104.

For a franchise defined by heartbreak rather than championships, one can only imagine the anxiety in Chicago had the NLDS returned to Wrigley Field for a Game 5 on Thursday. But instead of the billy goat and black cat and Bartman, all thoughts are on the next round for a team that has followed Maddon’s advice to embrace the high expectations.

“I think we’re growing every day,” pitcher Jon Lester said. “The biggest theme for us is just never quit. We always battle and grind out until the last out and see what happens.”

The NLDS sure was one wild grind.

That series had it all, whether it was Lester and Johnny Cueto dominating on the mound in Game 1, Javier Baez coming up with huge hits or spectacular plays, the Giants rallying in Game 3 and ultimately winning in 13 innings, or the Cubs scoring four in the ninth on Tuesday to wrap things up.

The Cubs joined the 1986 New York Mets (in Game 6 of the NLCS against Houston) as the only teams to rally from a three-run deficit in the ninth to win a playoff series clincher. They also stopped the San Francisco’s 10-game winning streak when facing postseason elimination and squashed the possibility of another even-year championship. The Giants won the World Series in 2010, 2012 and 2014.

“They played us tough,” MVP candidate Kris Bryant said. “I feel like if it did go back to Chicago we were ready to play. It’s nice to get it done here, kind of regroup and find out who we’re playing next.”

Whether it’s Washington or Los Angeles, either series would offer intriguing storylines.

IN THIS NOV. 15, 2015, FILE PHOTO, KANSAS CITY CHIEFS OUTSIDE LINEBACKER JUSTIN HOUSTON (50) celebrates a stop during the second half of an NFL football game against the Denver Broncos in Denver.

Houston has been cleared to resume football activity for the first time since having surgery to repair the ACL in his left knee in February.

Chiefs’ Houston cleared for workouts

By Dave Skretta AP Sports Writer

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The Kansas City Chiefs certainly needed some good news after their lopsided loss in Pittsburgh.

Turns out they got it the very next day.

Four-time Pro Bowl linebacker Justin Houston was examined by Dr. James Andrews on Oct. 3 and was given clearance to resume football-related activities. Houston has been rehabbing since February, when he had surgery to repair a nonfunctioning ligament in his left knee.

“Listen, he’s in pretty good shape. Right now he’s running around, doing a lot of things,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said Wednesday. “Other than that, we’ll just have to see.”

Houston is not eligible to come off the physically unable perform list until next week, so he’ll have to continue doing his workouts on his own. But there is a chance Houston will be able to join the rest of the team as early as next week, the next big hurdle in his return to the field.

“We’re giving him simulated football activity in his rehab, which is part of the progression,” Chiefs trainer Rick Burkholder said. “We’ll make a decision as this week comes to a close when we’ll take him off the PUP list and put him in practice.”

While there is still no timetable for his return to the field,

the news nonetheless made last week’s bye a little more palatable considering the 43-14 loss to the Steelers that preceded it.

Houston initially hurt his knee in a game against Buffalo last November, but at the time it was diagnosed as merely a hyperextension. He wound up missing the rest of the regular season, but returned in a brace for the playoffs, playing 44 snaps in a victory in Houston.

But he played only eight snaps in an ensuing loss to New England, and visited Andrews several weeks later to determine why there was still discomfort. The ligament issue was eventually discovered.

Houston underwent surgery to repair it on Feb. 16 , and he was given a timetable of six to 12 months for his recovery.

The fact that he could be on the field in the coming weeks puts Houston squarely in the window, and increases the likelihood he could be available for the stretch run.

That would come as a big relief to Kansas City.

The Chiefs were roundly criticized for the way they handled the injury, beginning with the initial — and ultimately flawed — diagnosis of a hyperextension. If the ligament situation was found at that point, there is a good chance Houston would already be on the field.

“Does he want to play right now? Yeah, it’s killing him not to play,” Reid said, “but that’s the kind of guy he is. You have to do what’s right. You take everything else out of it.”

To that end, Reid said the Chiefs will be cautious in working Houston into the mix. They have taken a similar approach to running back Jamaal Charles, who is expected to be a full participate in practice this week for the first time since tearing his right ACL in Week 5 last season.

Charles played briefly against Pittsburgh, but should be full-go on Sunday in Oakland.

The Chiefs could certainly use Houston’s ability to pressure the quarterback. They only have five sacks through their first four games, fewer than all but one team in the NFL. Houston had 7 last season, despite playing in only 11 regular-season games.

“Everybody is different.

You’ve seen how we’ve handled Jamaal,” Reid said. “You’re not going to put the player in a position where he’s not ready to play, and so that’s a challenge. It’s a violent sport that we’re playing, but you want to make sure he can get out of his own way.”

Notes: LB Tamba Hali was held out of Wednesday’s workout, though that is typical. LB Sio Moore was also absent with the flu. ... Moore was recently added to the roster, and the Chiefs plan to use him as an outside pass rusher. “He came out here Monday and we kind of rolled him in there,” Reid said. “He was in with the ones a bit, not a bunch. We’ll just have to see.”

KU football might have new part-time QB in Maciah Long

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

The Kansas offense did something a bit unexpected Saturday in its home game against TCU. KU football fans had grown accustomed to seeing the Jayhawks play two quarterbacks, a strategy implemented by head coach David Beaty d u r ing the Long first four games of the season. But no one outside of the Kansas locker room could’ve seen this coming.

On the first play of the second quarter, newly

named starting QB Ryan Willis was no where to be found. In his place on the Memorial Stadium turf for a third-and-1 play at KU’s 29-yard line stood a 6-foot-2 freshman wearing a No. 6 jersey.

Much more massive than Willis or backup Kansas quarterback Montell Cozart, 245-pound true freshman Maciah Long faked a handoff to running back Taylor Martin and powered ahead for a one-yard gain, just enough for a first down.

Recruited to KU as a linebacker and listed on the roster as a tight end, Long played QB in high school at Houston’s North Shore, where he led the Mustangs to the Class 6A Division 1 state championship, picking up offensive MVP honors in

the title game.

Long only came in for one snap at QB for the Jayhawks (1-4 overall, 0-2 Big 12), and the play did little more than extend the possession ahead of a punt.

But it could be a harbinger of more to come.

Beaty said at his Tuesday press conference the offense had been working on using Long “for weeks.” KU’s offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach added he hopes to expand Long’s role going forward.

“He’s a load, and he’s getting better at it, which gives you an extra gap for defenses to have to defend,” Beaty said of one of the benefits of putting Long, a running threat, in at QB. Leading up to this week’s game at No. 11

Baylor (5-0, 2-0), Beaty mentioned the Bears are able to do the same with their full-time QB Seth Russell (5.2 rushing yards per carry, three touchdowns this season).

Whether Kansas will start turning to Long for more short-yardage or goal-line downs moving forward, Beaty didn’t care to specify.

“When the situation calls for Maciah, we’ll use him as much as we can,” the coach said. “We’re not going to necessarily tip our hand to how we’re going to use him or how much we’re going to use him, but I do know this: He’s getting well, finally.

He was hurt for a long time. He’s been hobbled for four weeks. That ankle has not been healthy.

Having him healthy

now is really helping us with wanting to use him more.”

Ranked last in the Big 12 in rushing offense (97.2 yards a game) and ninth in total offense (376.4 yards), KU needs every offensive wrinkle it can create.

So more Maciah Long at quarterback doesn’t seem out of the question in the weeks to come.

In fact, perhaps everyone who follows Kansas football should’ve seen this coming. This past winter, at KU’s Class of 2016 signing day press conference, Beaty raved about Long’s versatility and size.

“We’re going to use him at linebacker,” the coach said in February.

“Don’t be surprised if we don’t put him back there and see him do some of the stuff you’re going

to see him do on tape here (running the ball as North Shore’s quarterback). Built-in short yardage scheme there with a guy that weighs 230 to 250 pounds. I won’t give him up. I think he’s somewhere between 230, 250, good-looking kid and can run for a kid that size.”

So far, Long, who chose KU over Ohio State, UCLA and other more reputable programs, has one carry for one yard.

But Kansas sure could use another dynamic option on offense as Beaty and company keep building for the future. In his senior year at North Shore, Long carried the ball 200 times, racking up 984 yards and 20 touchdowns. He also passed for 1,785 yards and 16 touchdowns.

Jackson CONTINUED FROM 1C

phone actually impact the outcome of games.

As if teams aren’t already fired up enough to face and try to take down Kansas.

I like that Jackson said it. And I like even more that he meant it. That should — emphasis on should — be the goal of every player on every team, especially the top dogs who actually have a decent shot of making it happen.

I remember talking to Jamari Traylor about this very topic in the recent past and his take was that that should be the goal every year.

Don’t be cocky about it, Traylor clarified, but you should show up to each season expecting to win every game you play, especially at a place like Kansas.

That certainly should be true for this year’s team which not only features the addition of Jackson but also includes a core that lacks nothing in the confidence department and is as experienced as it gets in college basketball these days.

And the fact that Jackson not only fits in with that mentality but also was bold enough to say it, shows you exactly how much KU’s one-and-done phenom could add to this team.

KU coach Bill Self has talked about Jackson having that alpha dog mentality. He’s said it about other players in the past, too, but, in most of those cases, I always got the feeling that Self was trying to will the words to become true rather than providing commentary on something that already was fact.

With Jackson, it does not sound like any willing is being done. Self has said from Day 1 that Jackson is one of the most competitive dudes he’s ever been around, even going as far as to say that adding him to the KU roster for the 2016-17 season will significantly upgrade the competitive nature of his team.

That’s high praise.

“Right now it just gives us more motivation since he’s doing so well and he’s such a fighter,” Payne said.

“I think we key in on that and use him as a reminder that we need to fight just as hard as he is.”

Said Bechard of his close friend: “We get updates every day and we’re very in tune with how he’s doing and how he wants us to be as people and competitors.”

Ward certainly would have given the Jayhawks another passing grade Wednesday night.

KANSAS BASKETBALL

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM

National Football League

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

With Kansas basketball program getting yearround coverage for the past 20-plus years, the buzz of media day has worn off a little.

By the time media day rolls around each year, KU fans already know a ton about the current Kansas team and roster and have heard endless amounts of information and analysis about what to expect, starting in the summer and continuing throughout the fall leading up to the start of the season.

KU freshman Josh Jackson (unintentionally) stole the show on Wednesday, when he said in a feature in USA Today that the Jayhawks were, “trying to go undefeated.”

No surprise there.

That’s the goal every year — to win every game — of programs across the country. But it’s been rare for Kansas to have a player who was willing to say it.

Jackson and his teammates, no doubt, will be asked to elaborate on the comment at media day, but given the experience, focus and expectations of this team, it seems likely that they’ll have no issue discussing it.

With that in mind, here’s a quick look at seven other things to expect from today’s KU basketball media day 2016.

tive conference titles.

Although Kansas won’t truly get its Big 12 title defense underway until late December, just being in the position to tie the Bruins’ record is big news and will be a common theme of everything the Jayhawks do and everywhere they go this season.

Maturity on full display By college basketball standards, this is a team of old men. Sure, Jackson and Carlton Bragg and Udoka Azubuike and even Lagerald Vick and Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk are still young, but the core of this team is made up of experienced veterans who have one thing in mind — winning.

That experience, particularly in the backcourt, should help Kansas play at a high level from the opener on. But it will be interesting to see what role maturity and their focus plays in the way they handle themselves at media day.

tus seems to be in much better shape for the Jayhawks this season, with only Azubuike (groin) and Ole Miss transfer Dwight Coleby (ACL) dealing with recent injuries. Two weeks into practice, how have those two looked and are the Jayhawks in good shape everywhere else?

Freshmen speak We’ve heard snippets from Josh Jackson, Udoka Azubuike and Mitch Lightfoot during the past several months, but media day is when we get to really dive into who these Goals and expectations guys are and what they’re The players will be expecting from their first asked about this ad seasons as Jayhawks. nauseam and they’ll all give their own input How has practice been? in their answers.

Recruit Deng Gak trims list to 3, including KU mtait@ljworld.com

Deng Gak, a 6-foot-10 center from Blair Academy in New Jersey eliminated Indiana and Duke from his final five and is down to Kansas, Florida and Miami, according to zagsblog.com.

Miami coach Jim Larranaga was scheduled to visit Gak on Wednesday and the foreign-born player who grew up in Australia is expected to visit Kansas the weekend of Oct. 21.

Gak “Deng is a late comer to the recruiting scene arriving in New Jersey as a junior,” Blair coach Joe Mantegna told zagsblog of the No. 91-ranked player in the Class of 2017 according

to Rivals.com. “He hasn’t even scratched the surface of what he will be as he transitions to a totally different culture and a very different style of basketball than he was used to previous. He has very little feel for the differences between these schools growing up in Australia, so the official visits will be a huge part of the process.”

Langford sets Kansas visit Romeo Langford, the No. 3 player in the Class of 2018, according to Rivals.com, told Shay Wildeboor of JayhawkSlant. com this week that he will make a visit to KU the weekend of Oct. 28.

At 6-foot-4, 185 pounds, Langford is the type of big guard that KU coach Bill Self has had a great deal of success with and has emerged as one of the most coveted players in the 2018 class. The fivestar prospect from New

Albany High in Indiana has scholarship offers from Kansas, Duke, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisville, North Carolina, North Carolina State and UCLA, among others.

Langford recently spoke with Eric Bossi of Rivals.com about KU’s pursuit.

“This is their first time really talking to me,” L a n g ford told Bossi. “It was them Langford telling me what their program is about and what they can offer me and me getting a chance to learn a bit about them.

They were just saying how people say that they are big on big men but if you look at it they are big on tall guards like myself, like Andrew Wiggins, Kelly Oubre and guys like that.”

Root for Scoot The popular phrase “Root for Scoot” has caught on around Lawrence, as those close to the KU basketball and volleyball programs rally support for academic advisor Scott “Scooter” Ward, who last week underwent emergency surgery to repair a torn aorta after a cardiac episode.

Throughout the week, Ward has made strides toward recovery and impressed friends, family members and even doctors with his progress.

Wednesday evening, former Jayhawk player and coach Brett Ballard posted a photo of the Wake Forest team holding up signs that read “Root for Scoot.” Ballard, Wake head coach Danny Manning and several other members of the Wake Forest program have ties to Kansas and a close relationship with Ward.
