State sees spike IN FINE FEATHERS in early voting

Ex-officer pleads not guilty to battery charge

By Conrad Swanson

cswanson@ljworld.com

A former Lawrence police officer accused of punching an uncooperative man in the face pleaded not guilty Thursday.

The former officer, Frank

McClelland, faces a misdemeanor charge of battery.

He appeared Thursday afternoon in Douglas County District Court and received a trial-setting date of Nov. 29.

McClelland declined to comment for this article.

On Aug. 16, McClelland was dispatched to the 1900 block of 19th Street to help another officer break up a fight between two men, Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson said at a September news conference.

After one of the men refused to follow McClelland’s orders to sit down, Branson alleged, McClelland swept the man’s legs out from under him and punched him in the face as many as four times.

With a new state law that lifts restrictions on the placement of political yard signs under legal question, a city ordinance directly in conflict with the law remains on the books.

But with changes in the pipeline, city attorneys say that Lawrence residents needn’t worry too much whether they should be following state statute or city ordinance when placing political yard signs this election season.

The main question is whether political yard signs can be placed in public right-of-ways, such as the area of land between the sidewalk and the street.

Hearing date set in abandoned baby case

By Conrad Swanson cswanson@ljworld.com

A Douglas County District Court judge has set a December hearing to decide whether there is enough evidence to order a criminal trial for a Lawrence man accused of putting his infant stepdaughter in an apartment complex’s trash.

On Oct. 20 Marquis Young, 27, was transferred from the Johnson County Jail to the Douglas County Jail. He faces felony charges of attempted first-degree murder and abuse of a child. He also faces a single charge of violating his probation.

Young was serving a sentence in Johnson County after he was convicted of battering his wife, Sheena Young, in July. He was transferred to Young Douglas County after he finished serving that sentence.

Thursday afternoon, Young appeared in Douglas County District Court, where Judge Paula Martin scheduled his next court appearance, a preliminary hearing to weigh the evidence

against him, for Dec. 7.

On July 7, police found an infant girl inside an apartment complex’s trash receptacle in the 2500 block of West Sixth Street. She suffered serious injures, received treatment at a Kansas City-area hospital and was later released.

The apartments in the complex are owned and managed by Country Club on 6th.

Police did not say specifically where the infant was found, though multiple residents at the complex said all the apartments share a centralized dumpster, which also compacts trash.

Several days after the infant

was found in the trash, Marquis PUBLISHER and Sheena Young were arrested on suspicion of disorderly Scott Stanford, 832-7277, sstanford@ljworld.com conduct at Perry Lake. Both were soon released from jail afEDITORS ter each posted a $3,000 bond.

Trump mentioned as example in KU lawsuit Charge

T

his year’s contentious presidential race is truly popping up everywhere.

Republican nominee Donald Trump’s name has even just showed up in a court case involving the University of Kansas.

Reading through court documents for my story on the KU football player who transferred to another team after being kicked out of KU for sexual assault, which ran in Sunday’s paper, I came across a particularly au courant passage.

For context, the document was KU’s latest reply filed in the case of Daisy Tackett v. KU, an ongoing federal Title IX suit in which Tackett, a former KU student and rower, alleged KU failed to properly investigate and adjudicate her report

Voters CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Mail-in ballots are going out at roughly the same pace, with 173,893 mail-in ballots sent out since Oct. 19 across Kansas. Some 49,568 mail-in ballots have been returned.

Both the Republicans and Democrats are finding something to cheer about as the parties analyze the daily lists they each receive showing who has voted so far.

In the deep red state of Kansas, it is not surprising that 51 percent of the people who have voted in person as of Thursday have been registered Republicans. Registered Democrats account for 34 percent of those early inperson voters, said Kelly Arnold, chairman of the Kansas Republican Party.

Half of the mail-in ballots sent out went to registered Republicans, compared to 32 percent for Democrats, he said.

“Typically Democrats have always held an advantage in the early voting part ... we are not seeing them crushing the numbers like they normally do,” Arnold

The state law allows such placement, but the city ordinance states the right-of-way is off limits.

The city didn’t finalize an update to its ordinance to bring it in line with state law because of a U.S. Supreme Court case out of Arizona, in which elements also present in the Kansas law were ruled unconstitutional, according to Randy Larkin, city attorney of planning, development and land use.

For now, Lawrence residents don’t need to try to pick between the two. Larkin said while the city prefers signs not be placed in the public rightof-way, it isn’t enforc-

said, adding that Republicans in the state tend to be Election Day voters.

Clay Barker, executive director of the Kansas Republican Party, said early voting so far shows “no bad surprises for us.”

But the GOP’s own analysis of early voter lists also shows that Kansas Democrats are doing a slightly better job of getting their party’s unlikely voters out early to cast a ballot: 12 percent of the Democrats who have voted so far were unlikely voters, compared to 8 percent of Republicans who fell in that category.

Cheyenne Davis, field director for the Kansas Democratic Party, contended party affiliation is an “antiquated way” to look at voting in Kansas because so many people in the state register as Republicans in order to be able to vote in contested GOP primaries, but then don’t necessarily vote Republican in the general election.

“We are optimistic, we look at it on a day-to-day basis,” Davis said. “We know a lot of Democrats are out there voting and we are excited about that.”

In Johnson County, the state’s most populous county, early voting has broken all-time records for the first

This is a singular sentence rebutting one of countless points brought up in hundreds of pages of back-and-forth filings in the lawsuit so far. This case is definitely not going to hinge on “The Donald” — but as I said, with two weeks until Election Day, there’s almost nowhere you can escape reference to this year’s exceptionally heated race for president, not even the bog of federal and higher education policy and case law that is this local Title IX lawsuit.

three days of in-person voting, said Election Commissioner Ronnie Metzger.

More than 34,000 residents had voted as of Thursday in Johnson County, which has six early polling sites now open.

There has been a constant stream of cars looking for a place to park, and wait times in some early voting lines have reached as long as 21 minutes.

Many voters, particularly older citizens, are telling election officials they are “a little nervous” about what is going to happen on Election Day, so they decided to vote in advance, Douglas County Clerk Jamie Shew said. Others say they have made up their mind.

“This election has been very long,” Shew said.

“And the bigger trend is people saying, ‘I am done with this election.’”

In Johnson County, the “onslaught” from early voting comes at the same time election workers are trying to process a backlog of 9,700 voter registrations, many that came in just two days before the Oct. 18 voter registration deadline, Metzger said.

“We will get caught up, but we had an enormous swell,” he said. “It is like a tsunami that hit us.”

The man was arrested, but no charges were ultimately filed against him.

Lawrence Police Chief Tarik Khatib said in September that another police officer heard about McClelland’s actions and reported the incident to a supervisor.

Khatib said he then contacted Branson and the Douglas County sheriff to initiate an independent investigation, after which the charge was filed against McClelland.

McClelland later resigned from the department. His last day was Aug. 30.

McClelland has not been arrested, though Douglas County District Court Judge James George said he would have to go to the jail to be processed and then be released on a $500 bond.

County on track to set early voting record Early voting in Douglas County is on track to top figures from the 2008 presidential election, which was the county’s record year, according to County Clerk Jamie Shew.

As of Wednesday, Shew said about 3,350 people had come in person to vote early. That’s significantly more than that same date in 2008, when about 1,900 had done so.

“I think our advanced turnout is going to be much larger than we’ve ever experienced before,” Shew said.

However, Shew said he doesn’t necessarily expect overall turnout to be much higher, as most of those choosing to vote early have not been first-time voters.

While the county

plied different restrictions to “ideological” signs, campaign signs and “temporary directional” signs. But the Supreme Court ruled that having different policies based on the content of signs was unconstitutional.

That ruling also makes elements of the Kansas law unconstitutional.

“You have to look at it and read it to determine whether it’s a political sign, so that’s a problem,” Larkin said.

The ruling also affects elements of Lawrence’s ordinance. The city’s standing ordinance has exemptions from its permit process based on content, which would not be allowed according to the Reed ruling, Larkin explained. The city is rewriting the or-

does not do exit polling, Shew said that anecdotally, a lot of voters have said they are choosing to vote early because they are ready to get the election over with.

“This election has been going on for a very long time, probably one of the longest presidential we’ve had,” Shew said. “A lot of people have said, ‘Nothing is going to change my mind in the next couple weeks.’”

Kansas voters don’t need to provide a reason to vote early, and voters can find locations to vote early on the Douglas County election’s website: www. douglascountyks. org/depts/votingand-elections.

dinance to bring it into compliance with the Supreme Court case, but also including modern updates, such as policies on electronic signs, Larkin said.

“You can’t make your regulations based upon what’s written on the sign, so we have certain things in there, and everybody does, but we have to go back and change it,” Larkin said.

The draft of the new ordinance will instead make rules for all signs, including restricting them from being placed in the right-of-way.

Larkin said the new ordinance should go to the City Commission for review early next year.

Appeal CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

According to information in the federal decision denying one appeal, McIntyre represented himself throughout much of his first round of appeals in state court.

Lisa Taylor, spokeswoman for the Kansas appellate courts, said a district court judge summarily rejected his latest appeal, saying there is no right to effective assistance of retained counsel in what the courts refer to as a “collateral” or second appeal of an underlying conviction.

When McIntyre appealed that decision, the state filed an objection and the Kansas Court of Appeals dismissed it saying he was procedurally barred from filing a second appeal more than a year after denial of his first petition.

The issue now before the Supreme Court is whether he should be barred from filing the second appeal after the deadline for filing such an appeal has passed, and whether there is a statutory right to effective assistance of counsel in a post-conviction collateral appeal.

A ROLLOVER ACCIDENT THURSDAY in the 3000 block of West Sixth Street slowed traffic to a crawl.

Rollover crash delays traffic

By Conrad Swanson cswanson@ljworld.com

A rollover accident Thursday afternoon slowed traffic on West Sixth Street to a crawl.

It was not immediately clear whether anybody involved in the accident was injured.

Around 3:30 p.m. a crash in the 3000 block

of West Sixth Street flipped one white SUV onto its roof. The vehicle came to a rest in the middle of the road.

Both westbound and eastbound traffic slowed along the street nearing the crash site.

A blue car with significant damage to its front was parked near the crash site in the parking

lot of Dillons, 3000 W. Sixth St. Additional information regarding the crash was not available, and representatives from the Lawrence Police Department did not immediately respond to an inquiry Thursday afternoon seeking additional details for this story.

KU student arrested on suspicion of rape

By Conrad Swanson cswanson@ljworld.com

A University of Kansas student accused of sexual assault was arrested Thursday at a KU residence hall.

KU Public Safety officers arrested an 18-yearold man at Oliver Hall, 1815 Naismith Drive, early Thursday morning on suspicion of rape and sexual battery, according to Douglas County Jail booking logs.

The man’s address

is listed in the logs as Oliver Hall, and KU spokesman Joe Monaco confirmed that there’s a student with the same name at the university.

According to KU Public Safety Deputy Chief James Anguiano, two women at the residence hall said the suspect assaulted them around 9 p.m. Wednesday. They reported the incidents to police around 11 p.m.

One woman reported that the suspect touched her inappropriately, ac-

cording to Anguiano, and the other said he did the same to her and tried to rape her.

Cheryl Wright Kunard, assistant to the district attorney, said she could not release any information on the arrest until the man appears in court.

The man was booked into the Douglas County Jail, where he is being held without bond.

Additional details were not immediately available.

The University of Kansas Student Senate is forming an ad hoc committee to explore and deal with issues faced by religious minorities on campus.

The committee will be charged with, first, creating a survey to gauge students’ accommodations for religious holidays and access to reflection spaces on campus, Student Body President Stephonn Alcorn said Thursday in a letter to student senators.

“Based on survey results, the committee will present legislation to the Student Senate to enhance the quality of life and freedom of religion for religious minorities at the University of Kansas,” Alcorn said. “The committee is charged with putting forward legislation that calls for more extensive accommodations besides what is indicated in the fine print of a syllabus and to increase education of faculty members regarding accommodations and the importance of their careful consideration.”

Co-chairs of the committee will be Zoya Khan, the multicultural affairs committee chair, and Chancellor Adams, on-campus senator, Alcorn said. He said other members would be announced at the Senate’s Nov. 2 meeting.

“The work ... is integral to the mission we are striving towards as a governing body: to enhance the quality of KU’s educational experience for marginalized individuals and identities,” Alcorn said.

The Student Senate approved a resolution to form the committee at the body’s Oct. 19 meet-

‘‘

The work ... is integral to the mission we are striving towards as a governing body: to enhance the quality of KU’s educational experience for marginalized individuals and identities.”

— Stephonn Alcorn, student body president

ing. However, the resolution that was ultimately approved was a watereddown version of the one that was initially presented that night, though they both called for creating the committee.

Alcorn actually vetoed the resolution because of those amendments, though he said he and bill authors agreed that the committee would still be created.

“I believe that the amended version does not represent the same intent or purpose that the authors of the resolution had originally set forward,” Alcorn said in his letter. “...the amendments to the background of the resolution diminished the original bill language which encapsulated the classroom experiences of religious minorities at KU.” The original version of the resolution said that KU “does not recognize major holidays celebrated by religious minorities outside of Christianity and/or other denominations that the university privileges or deems worthy over others,” that “international and local students of the university are unable to celebrate a major religious holiday without forfeiting their coursework obligations,” and that KU “does not provide the appropriate accommodation to students (including graduate students), faculty or staff observing religious holidays that are not recog-

nized or privileged by the university.”

Regarding observance of religious holidays, according to KU spokesman Andy Hyland, the University Senate Rules and Regulations currently states: “In cases where part of a class grade is based on attendance, a student shall not be penalized for absence from regularly scheduled class activities which conflict with mandated religious observances. In cases of conflicts between regularly scheduled class activities and mandated religious observances, the student is responsible for initiating discussion with the instructor to reach a mutually acceptable solution.”

There are currently four spaces on campus designated as reflection rooms for all faiths or practices, said Lisa Kring, director of building services for the KU Memorial Unions.

In addition to Danforth Chapel, a reflection room was designated in fall 2015 in Alcove A on level 3 of the Kansas Memorial Union.

The Office of Diversity and Equity has since worked with other university departments to designate reflection rooms at 320L Anschutz and on level 5 of Watson Library, Kring said. The new Central District student union, currently under construction, also is slated to have a reflection room.

A fair and impartial judiciary matters to us.

Topeka man arrested in connection with hotel robbery

By Conrad Swanson cswanson@ljworld.com

A Topeka man has been arrested in connection with a Wednesday morning robbery at a Lawrence hotel.

Exzabra Terrell Boldrid Smith, 28, was arrested about 5 a.m. Thursday on suspicion of aggravated robbery, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and criminal possession of a weapon by a felon, according to Douglas County Jail booking logs.

Smith’s arrest is related

to an armed robbery report at Days Inn, 730 Iowa St., at 2:22 a.m. Wednesday, said Lawrence Police Department spokeswoman Kim Murphree.

During the incident, one man was robbed of his Air Jordan shoes, Star Wars jacket and driver’s license, according to police.

The shoes are estimated to be worth $125 while the jacket is estimated to be worth $20, the police report says.

Smith was arrested at 2455 Creek Drive, book-

ing logs state.

An incident number in the booking logs corresponds with a follow-up investigation call at the address.

The call that led to the arrest was initiated at 2:33 a.m. Thursday and six officers responded to the scene.

Smith was booked into the Douglas County Jail, where he is being held without bond.

Murphree said police reports have been forwarded to the Douglas County District Attorney’s

Office, where a charging decision will be made.

This is the second hotel robbery for the month.

On Oct. 15 a man told police he was robbed at a hotel in the 1100 block of North Third Street, Lawrence Police Sgt. Amy Rhoads said last week.

Rhoads didn’t provide an exact address for the hotel; however, Motel 6, 1130 N. Third St., is the only hotel in that block.

The man told police he opened his hotel door to knocking and found

a person with a covered face and wearing a stocking cap, Rhoads said. The suspect then took a bag belonging to the man.

Department activity logs list the incident as an armed robbery; however, Rhoads did not clarify whether a weapon was used or whether the alleged victim was injured during the incident.

As of Thursday morning, no arrests in the booking logs had an incident number corresponding to the reported robbery, and Murphree said she had no

new information to release regarding the incident.

Two other armed robberies were reported in Lawrence this week.

Three people are accused of invading a North Lawrence home and robbing the residents at gunpoint. Two of the three suspects have since been arrested.

Another man is accused of robbing a person’s phone at gunpoint Friday and breaking into a Colorado Street home and threatening the occupants with a gun. He was arrested Monday.

Boxing results for lawman fighting for a KC charity

W

ell folks, the numbers are in and it’s a bit of a mixed bag when it comes to this year’s Kansas City Guns N’ Hoses event.

The annual event features area first responders boxing for charity; the money raised goes to the families of police officers, firefighters, corrections officers, medics and others killed in the line of duty.

I’ll give you the good news first: The event raised around $105,000 for the families, said Mandy McNeil, office manager for the Kansas City Crime Commission. That’s up from $68,000 the year before.

In addition, one local philanthropist offered the charity a check for $57,000, raising the grand total to $162,000 for the year, McNeil said.

“This was a big year,” she said. “It’s nice to see the community come through since we got hit so hard this year.”

In all, about 1,600 people attended the event, which was held Friday

night at the Kansas City Convention Center Grand Ballroom.

Okay, now for the less-than-pleasant news: Douglas County Sheriff’s Office Lt. Randy Cheek, who boxed in the event, lost his bout.

Douglas County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Kristen Dymacek said Cheek’s fight, which was against an Olathe firefighter, was evenly matched.

Ultimately, however, the judges agreed that the firefighter won.

Collaboration More joint efforts between the city and the county could benefit local taxpayers and should be explored.

I

t was encouraging to hear Lawrence City Manager Tom Markus support increased collaboration between the city and Douglas County. In the long run, such collaboration could create significant savings for taxpayers.

As part of his City Hall Update on Tuesday, Markus said a new state law that places limits on property taxes would make collaboration between the city and county more necessary than ever. The new law requires cities and counties to get voter approval before increasing property tax revenues beyond the rate of inflation. But the tax policy, which goes into effect in 2018, includes exemptions allowing cities and counties to increase revenues without voter approval under certain conditions.

For instance, increased revenues from new construction, annexation of new territory and the expiration of property tax abatements given for economic development incentives would not require a vote.

The city and county have combined services for fire and medical, health department, senior and planning services.

Markus cited as another example the renovation of the city’s Fire Station No. 1, which is in the same building as Douglas County Senior Services. Instead of renovating just the fire station, the city worked out a cost-sharing plan with the county to renovate the entire building for $6.4 million.

“I actually think we could do even more,” Markus said. “You’ve got the culture to do those things and I think it would actually make things more efficient if we could get ourselves there. A lot of times these things are challenged because parochial interests kind of get in the way of these things, but, quite frankly, I do think that those are opportunities for us.”

Law enforcement immediately comes to mind as an opportunity to explore.

Could the Lawrence Police Department and Douglas County Sheriff’s Office serve the city and county as a singular force at a lower cost? It certainly seems like a concept worth exploring.

Markus is on to something. But the key to any collaboration will depend on city and county leaders being willing to set egos and power struggles aside and instead focus on ways to make government more efficient. Markus is to be commended for expressing an openness to collaboration. Let’s hope county leaders embrace his invitation.

GOP needs to nominate Republicans Washington — When told that the New England transcendentalist Margaret Fuller had grandly declared “I accept the universe,” the Scottish philosopher Thomas Carlyle dryly remarked: “She’d better.” Much ink and indignation has been spilled concerning whether Donald (“I am much more humble than you would understand”) Trump will “accept” the election’s outcome. The nation, like the universe of which it is the nicest part, will persevere even without the election result being accepted by the fellow who probably will be the first presidential candidate in 16 years to receive less — probably a lot less — than 45 percent of the vote.

When the Jimmy Carter/ Walter Mondale ticket lost 44 states in 1980, Mondale used his elegant concession remarks to herald “a chance to rejoice”: “Today, all across this nation — in high school cafeterias, in town halls, and churches, and synagogues — the American people quietly wielded their staggering power. ... Tonight we celebrate above all the process we call American freedom.” Today, such political grace notes are rare as the nation slouches toward its first dyspeptic landslide — an electoral vote avalanche for a candidate regretted by a majority of the electorate.

waves have become less turbulent. For example, in 2004, 13 states enacted — 11 of them by referendums — prohibitions on same-sex marriage. Three elections later, this issue has virtually disappeared from political discourse.

Americans might feel as though they are living through an unceasing and unprecedented political maelstrom, but by one measure there is unusual stability: The nation is nearing the end of a third consecutive two-term presidency, something that has occurred only once before in U.S. history — the Virginia dynasty of the third, fourth and fifth presidents (Jefferson, Madison, Monroe). Of the five presidents in office from the inauguration of John Kennedy in 1961 through the departure of Jimmy Carter in 1981, not one served two full terms.

The last Democrat directly elected (that is, not counting Harry Truman or Johnson, who were elected after inheriting the office) to succeed a Democrat was James Buchanan, arguably the worst president ever.

One hundred and sixty years later, Republicans fearing four Clinton years can reasonably hope there will be no more than four: The likelihood of Democrats winning a fourth consecutive presidential term will be reduced if the Republican Party reverts to its practice, adhered to since it chose John C. Fremont in 1856, of nominating a Republican.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for years Oct. 28, 1916: ago l “More than a thousand IN 1916 Manhattan Aggies swarmed into Lawrence today to support their team on McCook field this afternoon.

Early trains began disgorging their quota of visitors. The very earliest to arrive was a freight train, which a Manhattan rooter said brought 240 men. The Aggie travelers struck a friendly train crew in Manhattan last night, and when empty boxcars proved too few in number, the yard man hooked on two empty coal cars, which quickly filled with rejoicing students.”

Election will have giant impact on Supreme Court’s future At the outset of the third presidential debate, moderator Chris Wallace raised an issue that will see as much longterm impact by voters’ actions as any in this election: the Supreme Court.

The power to nominate justices is a sub-text of all presidential elections. But what’s different this year is that Justice Antonin Scalia’s unexpected death opened the way for liberals to regain a majority on the court for the first time in 45 years, since President Richard Nixon filled four court vacancies in his first term.

The election of Hillary Clinton — and a Senate Democratic majority — would almost certainly end an era of conservative majority on the court. Because Republicans have held the White House for 28 of 40 years, their selection of justices like Scalia created a conservative court, with significant implications for issues from abortion to voting rights.

It was the reason for backing Donald Trump — despite concerns about his shortcomings — that four undecided or conflicted Republicans cited Tuesday in a North Carolina focus group Democratic pollster Peter Hart conducted for

Carl Leubsdorf carl.p.leubsdorf@gmail.com

the Annenberg Public Policy Center of the University of Pennsylvania.

Some conservatives consider the court’s prospective ideological change far more serious than loss of the presidency because it could end their hopes of barring abortions, reverse a recent trend toward restricting voting and allow gun control advocates to weaken some Second Amendment strictures.

At a time when partisan differences define much of our politics, the court has four liberal justices named by Democratic presidents and four conservatives picked by Republicans, including one (Anthony Kennedy) who sometimes strays from his allies on the right.

The Senate’s current Republican majority refused to consider President Barack Obama’s selection of U.S. Ap-

peals Judge Merrick Garland to replace Scalia, hoping the election would produce a Republican president and maintain that GOP Senate majority.

Achieving an ideological majority on the Supreme Court is no easy task, given the justices’ lifetime tenure and their tendency to serve long beyond the presidencies of the people who choose them.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s nominees controlled the court for a quarter century after FDR’s death in 1945. The last one, William O. Douglas, served until 1975. Similarly, the conservative majority Nixon achieved and subsequent Republicans maintained has outlasted his presidency by more than 40 years; Kennedy, Ronald Reagan’s final nominee, joined the court 29 years ago.

But Democratic victories in four of the last six presidential elections produced today’s more politically balanced court, and a Clinton victory would almost certainly tip the balance, even if Republicans keep the Senate.

And even if the GOP blockade continues until the end of the current Congress, a decision by Clinton to re-submit Judge Garland, a highly re-

spected moderate Democrat, would likely attract enough Republican support to ultimately win confirmation.

One underlying factor is that the two nominees have such diametrically different views, as they made evident in last week’s debate.

Clinton called for a court that maintains marriage equality and abortion rights and opposes the Citizens United decision allowing unregulated political spending by business and labor groups. While reiterating she supports the Second Amendment protecting the right to keep and bear arms, she also favors “reasonable regulation,” such as comprehensive background checks and closing current loopholes.

Trump, who has issued a list of prospective nominees, said he will name “pro-life” judges, adding, “They will have a conservative bent. They will be protecting the Second Amendment.” He acknowledged that, if he names two or three justices, the court would probably reverse its 1973 decision protecting abortion rights.

The replacement of just one or two could have a profound impact, because the court divided 5-4 on many issues. Besides,

the open Scalia seat, additional vacancies seem likely in the next presidential term, given that Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the court’s senior Democrat, is 83; Kennedy is 80; and Democrat Stephen Breyer is 78.

Clinton’s election would enable her to create and enhance a Democratic majority by filling future vacancies with younger Democrats. While replacing Ginsburg and Breyer would not affect the balance, filling Kennedy’s seat with a liberal would reinforce the margin.

On the other hand, Trump’s choices would presumably maintain — and bolster — the conservative majority.

As for the 63-year-old Garland, there has been speculation some Republican senators would see a Clinton victory as a signal to confirm him when Congress returns next month, lest she later nominate someone younger and more outspokenly liberal.

Whatever happens on Nov. 8, neither party will have a big Senate majority. Future Supreme Court fights seem inevitable, especially over nominees who would change its ideological makeup.

New pot laws may affect 84M Americans 9 states consider legalizing medical or recreational use Trevor Hughes @trevorhughes USA TODAY

Nearly 60 million Americans may wake up Nov. 9 to find voters in their states have abolished longstanding marijuana prohibitions, a three-fold expansion for legal cannabis across the country.

An additional 24 million Americans could find themselves in states with newly legal medical marijuana use, a smaller but still significant expansion of legalized pot around the United States. Already, half of the states permit some form of medical marijuana use, and more than half of all Americans live in a state that has approved medical marijuana.

Is Black Friday dead?

Charisse Jones @charissejones USA TODAY

There’s little question that Black Friday has lost some of its mojo.

The frenzied post-Thanksgiving shopping experience that traditionally draws turkey-satiated shoppers out of the house before dawn for years sparked long lines, bustling crowds and fever-tossed shelves.

But in the past two holiday seasons, Black Friday lost its title as the busiest shopping day of the year. With competition from ecommerce, along with doorbuster specials offered earlier in the month, and selling on Thanksgiving Day itself, shoppers discovered they don’t have to wait for Black Friday to grab a deal.

Experts have noticed the fall off in foot traffic on Black Friday.

Consulting firm Deloitte says its researchers, sent out to gauge

shopper interest on Black Friday, have been saying “is it supposed to be this dead?” over the past couple of years, says Rod Sides, vice chairman of the U.S. Retail & Distribution practice leader. “It’s interesting how much traffic has fallen off in the last three or four years around that particular event, and on that particular day.’’

The Black Friday shopping marathon surged in the 1980s, and over the years retailers opened their doors earlier and earlier, leading to the now common starting time of 6 a.m., says Scott Bauer, the lead of PwC’s digital retail practice.

It became the biggest shopping day of the year. But, in 2014, the Saturday before Christmas surpassed Black Friday in actual sales. In 2015, “Super Saturday’’ once again was the top shopping day of the year.

Jars of dried marijuana flowers at the Denver-based Medicine Man marijuana store.

California, experts say, will likely play the most significant role in cannabis legalization on Nov. 8. Voters in our most populous state are widely expected to approve the “Adult Use of Marijuana Act,” adding nearly 40 million names to the list of people who live in a state with legal pot.

Lawmakers see marijuana taxes as a source of new revenue to close budget gaps, while entrepreneurs are considering the business case, with potentially billions of dollars in profits possible from this fast-growing MadeIn-America industry.

Arizona, California, Maine, Massachusetts and Nevada are considering legalizing recreational marijuana. Voters in Arkansas, Florida, Montana and North Dakota are asking voters whether to permit medical use for certain conditions, such as cancer or chronic pain. None of those votes will change the federal ban on marijuana use, although legalization advocates say it may further pressure Congress, the DEA and the FDA to act.

Obama sets a single-year record for commutations Extraodinary effort targets ‘War on Drugs’ Gregory Korte @gregorykorte USA TODAY

WASHINGTON President Obama granted 98 more commutations to federal inmates Thursday, bringing the total for this year to 688 — the most commutations ever granted by a president in a single year.

In all, he’s now shortened the sentences of 872 inmates during his presidency, more than any

president since Woodrow Wilson.

The actions were part of Obama’s extraordinary effort to use his constitutional power to rectify what he sees as unduly harsh sentences imposed during the “War on Drugs.”

Through a clemency initiative announced in 2014, he’s effectively resentenced hundreds of nonviolent drug dealers to the sentences they would have received under today’s more lenient sentencing guidelines.

Unlike a full pardon, which represents a full legal forgiveness for a crime, a commutation only shortens the sentence while leaving other consequences — like

President Obama granted 98 commutations to federal inmates Thursday. That brings the total to 688 for the year.

court-ordered supervision and restrictions on firearms ownership — intact.

But while Obama’s commutation grants get most of the attention, he’s also been quietly denying a record number of commutations at the same time — a function of the unprecedented number of applications submitted through the clemency initiative. On Oct. 6, for example, the White House announced that Obama granted 102 commutations.

It wasn’t until a week later that the Justice Department updated its clemency statistics to reveal that he had denied 2,917 commu-

tation petitions on Sept. 30.

And as of Oct. 7, Obama had granted just 5.5% of commutation applications — still more than many of his predecessors.

President George W. Bush granted just 0.1% of commutation applications that reached his desk.

Some advocates for inmates say there’s not enough transparency about why some get clemency while others wait. “We want answers for the families who are still waiting for their clemency,” said Jessica Jackson Sloan, national director of the pro-clemency group Cut 50. “There needs to be more communication about why people are being denied.”

Cubs Nation amped up for return of Series v CONTINUED FROM 1B

tle drought. But much to the chagrin of White Sox fans, fervor over the Cubs’ chase for the team’s first World Series crown since 1908 is at another level.

On sports radio, the triumphant return of Kyle Schwarber, the Cubs slugger who suffered what was supposed to be a season-ending knee injury in April, is being treated as a legendary moment in baseball history.

At the Art Institute of Chicago, the museum partnered with the Cubs to make and install giant batting helmets on American sculptor Edward Kemeys’ iconic lions that sit in the grand entryway on Michigan Avenue.

Around town, there’s no shortage of opportunities to “eat the curse” of the billy goat — a tavern

owner famously put a hex on the Cubs at the 1945 World Series when his goat was refused entry into Wrigley — as restaurants have put goat dishes on the menu to mark the World Series berth.

More than 300,000 people jammed into Wrigleyville, the dense North Side neighborhood where the historic park is located, for last week’s NL Championship Series clincher. Police expect even more fans, the majority without tickets, will flock there for each of this weekend’s three scheduled games.

Hanging out in the neighborhood and soaking up the ambience won’t come cheap. The famed Cubby Bear lounge across the street from Wrigley Field is charging a $100 cover for the opportunity to watch the game on its big screens and buy its beer.

Another neighborhood bar, HVAC, is charging $250 a person for a Game 4 watch party package that includes drinks and all-youcan-eat pizza and wings.

The inflated cover charges pale in comparison to the price of getting into Wrigley. Standing-room tickets for Friday’s Game 3 are going for a whopping $2,100 on the secondary market, while box seats will set fans back at least $13,000 for a pair.

But for many of the Cubs faithful, some who were skeptical this day would ever come, the moment is priceless.

Judy Caldow, 67, a longtime season ticketholder, said her husband suggested she sell one of her World Series tickets to help pay off the new roof on their North Side home. The suggestion did not sit well with her.

AAMER MADHANI, USA TODAY

Cubs fan Jerry Pritikin, known around Wrigley Field as the Bleacher Preacher, shows off a sign he made for the NL Championship Series.

‘Enormous shift’ on the issue Medical dispensaries would be granted an 18-month monopoly on recreational sales, and alcohol distributors would also have an 18-month monopoly on distribution. Home growing would be banned anywhere within 25 miles of a licensed dispensary, which could make home cultivation illegal for up to 90% of the state. The latest polling showed more than 55% of people approved of the measure.

the District of Columbia — have already legalized recreational marijuana. An additional 25 permit medical use. But this election has the potential to dramatically shift the conversation because so many Americans live in the nine states where relaxation measures are being considered. If it were its own country, California alone would have the world’s sixth-largest economy, and what happens there almost inevitably spreads east.

Polls nationally show growing support for marijuana legalization. A poll released earlier this month by the Pew Research Center found 57% of adults think marijuana use should be legal, up from 53% last year and 32% in 2006. That despite the fact that marijuana remains a Schedule 1 controlled substance and is illegal at the federal level. A Gallup poll released Oct. 19 showed even stronger support: 60%, up from 58% last year and 50% in 2011.

“There’s been an enormous shift in public opinion on this issue, and I think that has directly led to why it is appearing on so many state’s (ballots) this year,” said John Kagia, executive vice president of industry analytics for New Frontier Data. “This is going to be an enormous industry, no matter how you slice it.”

Colorado was the first state to legalize recreational marijuana, with voters approving the measure in 2012 and sales launching in January 2014. That vote came after the country already had more than a decade of experience with medical marijuana, a deliberate strategy on the part of backers who say they started with medical marijuana first before seeking to broaden it. No state has yet legalized recreational marijuana via its legislature.

na supporters. They worry widespread legalization opens the door to Big Tobacco-style companies interested in selling drugs to the public, especially kids, without regard for the public health consequences.

New Frontier, which doesn’t take a position on legalization, estimates the legal cannabis market could be worth nearly $8 billion by 2020.

Still, entrepreneurs — particularly in California — are rushing to fund greenhouses, invest in growing and harvesting technology and create social media platforms to connect buyers with cannabis recommendations.

Those investments are targeted at medical marijuana, which is already legal, but the rush shows how investors are positioning themselves for what’s widely considered a slam-dunk recreational legalization vote in California.

“People are beginning to understand that this isn’t just about not putting people in prison, but about making a lot of money,” said Jeffrey Zinsmeister, the executive vice president of the antilegalization group Smart Approaches to Marijuana, which has funded opposition campaigns in several states.

The ballot measure expands the state’s well-regarded medical marijuana program to recreational use, but it also permits the creation of “marijuana social clubs,” where people would be able to consume marijuana.

Critics worry that might increase the amount of impaired driving, in the way that bars can lead to more drunken drivers on the road.

MASSACHUSETTS

Prop. 205 would legalize adult recreational marijuana use, cultivation and sales, with a 15% sales tax to fund new state regulation, enforcement and education efforts. A recent Arizona Republic/ Morrison/Cronkite News poll found 50% of registered voters favor legalization, 40% oppose it and 10% were undecided. The poll surveyed 784 registered voters between Aug. 17 and Aug. 31, with a margin of error of 3.4 percentage points.

Since that poll, however, voters have been bombarded with ads.

Polling expert Mike O’Neil said he expects the “No on Prop 205” ads will draw undecided voters to their side.

MAINE

Most of the state’s political establishment opposes the measure to legalize recreational marijuana, with former governor Bill Weld one notable exception. Weld, a Republican, is running on the Libertarian presidential ticket with Gary Johnson.

Current Gov. Charlie Baker argues legalizing marijuana in the Bay State could increase youth use and distract regulators and public health officials wrestling with an epidemic of opioid abuse and overdoses. Despite that toplevel opposition, voters appear poised to approve the measure.

Fifty-five percent of likely voters now say they favor legalization for recreation, WBUR radio reported. That poll found that half the people surveyed had tried marijuana at some point in their lives.

fertilizer use — and gives existing medical-marijuana providers a head start in getting business licenses.

The measure also maintains existing prohibitions on youth use and driving while high.

Critics worry it will open up television advertising to marijuana companies and goes too far in permitting people previously convicted of violent drug offenses to join the industry. Medical marijuana is widely available in California, and a large portion of the economies of Humboldt County and the far northern portions of California are heavily dependent on illegal growing.

Polls show it’s likely to pass.

The California plan, known as the Adult Use of Marijuana Act, allows residents to grow up to six plants at home and gives municipalities the power to allow or ban outdoor grows and marijuana stores. It requires commercial growers to comply with environmental regulations — many illegal growers today ignore laws governing water, pesticide and

A year after its medical-marijuana program launched, Nevada’s voters are now considering whether to legalize recreational growing and use. Nevada’s program would be open to anyone visiting the state, and supporters say the tourist-heavy market could be worth $390 million, with up to $1.1 billion in economic impact.

ARKANSAS

Arkansas voters in 2012 nearly legalized medical marijuana, rejecting the measure 51% to 49%, and this year they’re considering two competing measures, both of which are opposed by the state’s Republican-dominated political establishment. As in many states, Arkansas voters who are personally familiar with medical marijuana use are more likely to support legalization, especially if they have experience with people who have struggled with opioid use or abuse.

Medical marijuana advocates say cannabis is a safer alternative to potentially deadly and physically addictive prescription drugs like OxyContin.

FLORIDA

Florida’s proposed Amendment 2 would allow patients to obtain marijuana if they have “debilitating” illnesses, such as cancer, HIV, post-traumatic stress disorder, Parkinson’s disease and epilepsy. Under existing state law, only patients with certain medical conditions that benefit from non-euphoric strains of cannabis and patients with irreversible “terminal” illness may access the drug through state-approved doctors and growers.

A proposal in 2014 to broadly legalize medical marijuana won nearly 58% of the vote but fell short of the required 60% needed for adoption. Polls indicate the measure may have enough support this time around.

MONTANA

This may be the second time voters here approve a medical marijuana plan. They approved one in 2004, but lawmakers in 2011 repealed it and replaced it with a far more restrictive system — a move that was upheld by the Montana Supreme Court earlier this year.

Now, Initiative 183 aims to restore much of the original system, including allowing providers to hire employees to cultivate, dispense and transport medical marijuana. The initiative also repeals the requirement that physicians who provide certifications for 25 or more patients annually be referred to the board of medical examiners and bars law enforcement from making unannounced inspections of medical marijuana facilities.

NORTH DAKOTA

North Dakotans are considering permitting medical marijuana for certain conditions, such as cancer. Acknowledging the state’s rural nature, patients who live more than 40 miles from a “compassionate care center” would be allowed to grow up to eight plants as long as they notified local law enforcement in advance.

For season ticketholder Tom Peak, 52, scars from years of disappointment have prevented him from getting too confident about the Cubs’ chances. Before the series started, Peak joked that while the Cubs had the best record in baseball, “They’re still the Cubs.”

But after Wednesday’s Game 2 victory in Cleveland, Peak said he couldn’t help but to let his optimism grow.

“The past is less in the back of my mind,” said Peak, who plans to wear his late father’s Cubs baseball cap to Friday’s game.

Black Friday net sales in store have been in decline, according to analytics firm RetailNext.

Sales dropped 1.6% last year as compared to 2014, and declined 14.1% in 2014 from the previous year. Traffic also took a dip, dropping 1.8% in 2015 vs. the previous year, and 16% in 2014 as compared to 2013.

The recent trend of retailers opening their doors on Thanksgiving Day has had an impact on Black Friday’s selling power.

Macy’s, for instance, will open at 5 p.m. on Thanksgiving, an hour earlier than last year.

But some stores and malls are closing on Thanksgiving, in part, because the extra shopping day was dimming some of Black Friday’s gleam.

“There is no question that heavy discounting early in the holiday sales season, both online and in stores, along with retailers opening their doors on Thanksgiving Day have cut into Black Friday sales,’’ says Ana Serafin Smith, spokeswoman for the National Retail Federation.

“However, Black Friday remains the official kickoff to the holidays and an important tradition for millions of shoppers across the country. There is no indication that will change in the foreseeable future.”

The move away from starting Black Friday on Thanksgiving is growing.

Deals are popping up as early as October. Amazon starts offering Black Friday deals next week on Nov 1. And this year, Lord & Taylor will kick off its Black Friday promotions the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, while Gilt will have online promotions that begin on Wednesday.

But for many, a traditional Black Friday still delivers.

“It will be the number one day for hhgregg,’’ says Chris Sutton, the Electronics and appliance chain’s senior vice president, marketing.

USA’s portfolio allocation by foreign investment

Q: Why are ‘hot stocks’ cooling off?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: It’s hard to blame investors who thought picking stocks was easy.

Just buy shares in popular growth stocks such as restaurant Chipotle, electric-car maker Tesla, apparel maker Under Armour and maybe a hot alternative energy play such as First Solar and watch the money roll in during 2015.

The game has changed.

Shares of Chipotle are down more than 25% this year amid plunging revenue and profit. Tes-

Here’s how America’s individual investors are performing based on data from SigFig online investment tracking service:

la shares are down this year, too, although a surprise profit reported late Wednesday trimmed the losses. Under Armour and First Solar skyrocketed 19% and 48%, respectively, in 2015. This year, though, they are down 21% and 38%.

The underperformance of these “growth” stocks isn’t a surprise. Growth stocks, those that trade at high prices compared to their net worth, are poor performers relative to their risk.

The Index Funds Advisor Large Growth index, which contains expensive stocks, has generated a long-term average annual gain of 9.1%. That’s below the 9.7% average annual gain by the Standard & Poor’s 500. Large growth stocks are also 17% riskier than the S&P 500.

That’s a bad trade-off.

Coke (KO) was the most-bought stock among all SigFig investors in early October.

Qualcomm to buy NXP Semi for $38B in big play on self-driving cars Nathan Bomey and Jon Swartz

@NathanBomey, @jswartz USA TODAY

With plans to insert itself in the driver’s seat for a slice of the self-driving car market, Qualcomm said Thursday it has agreed to acquire NXP Semiconductors for about $38 billion.

Qualcomm said it would pay $110 per share for the Dutch company, which commands 14% of global automotive semiconductor sales.

SEMICONDUCTORS BY GETTY IMAGES

It expects the deal to close by the end of 2017.

Shares of Qualcomm rose 2.8% to $70.09. NXP shares ended up 0.4% to $99.08.

The deal, which gives the telecommunications giant a greater foothold in the burgeoning market for technology that will power self-driving cars, represents a growth space compared to the saturated market for smartphones and other mobile devices.

NXP also has a desirable position in the market for technology powering the so-called Internet of Things and security products.

“Qualcomm has played a critical role in driving the evolution of the mobile industry,” Qualcomm CEO Steve Mollenkopf said in a statement. “The NXP acquisition

accelerates our strategy to extend our leading mobile technology into robust new opportunities.”

But the deal also places Qualcomm in a crowded dogfight with Infineon Technologies AG, Renesas Electronics, STMicroelectronics NV and Texas Instruments.

The megaacquisition is the latest in a series of blockbuster deals for the semiconductor business, accelerating the trend of consolidation.

In July, Softbank said it would buy chip designer ARM Holdings for $32 billion. Last year, Avago

agreed to acquire Broadcom for $37 billion, Intel acquired chipmaker Altera for $16.7 billion and NXP agreed to take over Freescale Semiconductor for $11.8 billion.

Qualcomm said it expects to shed $500 million in costs annually within two years of the deal’s closure, though it did not specify where the cuts would occur. The combined company would boast more than $30 billion in annual revenue.

When including the assumption of debt, the deal has enterprise value of about $47 billion.

Robert Langdon’s smarts and charm lend enduring appeal Brian Truitt @briantruitt USA TODAY

Tom Hanks, with Felicity Jones, has his third go as Brown’s symbologist Robert Langdon in Inferno, in theaters Friday.

He doesn’t have any helpful superpowers and his penchant for fisticuffs is probably a little lacking. But literary-turned-cinematic character Robert Langdon still manages to be an A-list action star.

So what’s behind Langdon’s enduring appeal? Over the course of four best-selling Dan Brown novels and three of director Ron Howard’s film JONATHAN PRIME, SONY PICTURES adaptations — including Inferno, in theaters Friday — the world-traveling symbolstop the release of a modern-day Indiana Jones, ogist has sparked a loyal genetically mutated though he reminds Howard more GETTY IMAGES virus fanbase and hit the right designed to of the classic Sherlock Holmes. spot for readers and movie- Author Dan take out much of “Holmes is chillier and he’s almost Spock-like as a man of comgoers seeking an unconven- Brown. mankind. tional superhero.

Dear Annie: My brother, “Peter,” recently got married for the second time, to a woman named “Valerie.” As his elder brother, I was quite happy for him that he had found someone to spend his life with.

The problem is with Valerie. She has never been particularly nice to me or our extended family.

Recently, we were at a family event. Everyone had a great time, or so I thought. As we were all leaving, Peter pulled me aside and told me how I had insulted Valerie because I did not speak with her during the evening.

Well, I feel Valerie could have talked to me, just as I could have talked more to her.

But when Peter got home, he wrote me an email listing how I had

Dear Annie

Annie Lane

dearannie@creators.com

insulted Valerie on every occasion we’d been together since he started dating Valerie.

Here is an example of how I have insulted Valerie: When we went out for Peter’s bachelor party with about 20 friends, Peter forgot to kiss Valerie goodbye.

We were already on our way, and I did not turn around so he could say goodbye to her.

Also, Valerie’s mother passed away two months before the wed-

‘Live PD’ shares ‘Cops’ style Is the new documentary “Live PD” (8 p.m., A&E, TV14) a provocative series for our times, or a reboot of “Cops,” the granddaddy of reality television? “Live” uses dash cams and handheld cameras to capture six different urban and rural police forces around the country on a typical Friday night. “Live” will also invite viewer feedback via social media.

“Live” arrives at a time when many are calling for more transparency from police forces.

For all of the predictability that it gathered over the decades, “Cops” most often portrayed police officers in a sympathetic light, offering viewers a realistic look at the difficulty of their job and the unpredictable situations and out-of-control people they had to contend with on an everyday basis.

O Is Tracey Ullman the most influential person in TV history? No, absolutely not. But her Fox series “The Tracey Ullman Show,” which aired from 1987 to 1990, was the launching pad for “The Simpsons,” the longestrunning and arguably best comedy in television history.

“Ullman” showcases her great talent for mimicry. In the very first sketch, she’s seen as Dame Judi Dench, taking advantage of her acclaim as a “national treasure” to go on a shoplifting spree in a down-market liquor store.

Ullman’s Fox series was also famously low-rated. Back when there were only 88 network shows to rank, hers was consistently 88th.

Watching the new HBO series “Tracey Ullman’s Show” (10 p.m., HBO, TV-MA) offers a gentle reminder of why she never caught fire on this side of the Atlantic.

O Not to be confused with the new Dan Brown thriller, the documentary “Into the Inferno” (streaming today on Netflix) takes viewers to some of the planet’s most active volcanoes. Werner Herzog (“Grizzly Man”) directs.

O Bill Murray receives the Mark Twain Prize (8 p.m., PBS, TV-PG, check local listings) for humor. Lisa Loopner would be so proud.

Tonight’s other highlights O “Caught on Camera With Nick Cannon” (7 p.m., NBC, TV-PG) showcases young filmmakers.

O Linus defends his unorthodox beliefs in the 1966 special “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” (7 p.m., ABC, TV-G).

O A young entrepreneur offers a new twist on the potato on “Shark Tank” (8 p.m., ABC, TV-PG).

O Athletic support on “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” (8 p.m., CW, TV-14).

ding. I did not attend the funeral or pay respects after the funeral.

Valerie was deeply insulted by that. I did not say anything because I did not want her to start crying in front of me and the family (in a public place). Interesting to note, when my father-in-law died six months prior, I never received any condolences from her, nor did she attend the funeral. Both my wife and I did not care and never thought anything of her behavior.

Needless to say, Valerie has caused a lot of trouble. My wife and I no longer want to be around this woman.

This has destroyed my relationship with my brother. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

It is obvious that no matter what I do, this woman will be insulted.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Friday, Oct. 28: This year you enjoy breaking past established barriers. If you are single you keep stumbling into situations where someone is not there for you or has other commitments. If you are attached, you could destroy the bond if you don’t make a point to cherish it.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ++++ Others might appear to be unusually agreeable, until you discover that you are on a collision course with an authority figure. Tonight: Make the most of the moment.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) +++ Reach out to a friend.

This person wants you to join him or her as soon as you can! Tonight: Go for something mellow.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) +++++ You can’t prevent moments of daydreaming from entering your life today. Tonight: The only answer is “yes.”

Cancer (June 21-July 22) +++ If you can work from home, do. You could see a problem with an associate or a loved one as a power play. Tonight: How about moving TGIF to your place?

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ++++ You could be busy sharing news with many different people from all walks of life.

Do not fight city hall. Tonight: Embrace the weekend!

— Family Dynamics Dear Family: I’ll grant you this: Valerie sounds demanding, dramatic and more than a little selfinvolved. That said, I think you could have been more empathetic to her after her mother died. There’s nothing wrong with a person’s persistently crying after losing a loved one. Your fear of tears shouldn’t have stopped you from being there for a woman who was practically — and now is — family. Perhaps if you reach out to Valerie, apologize and tell her you’re sorry for her loss, things will smooth over enough for you and your wife to continue having a cordial relationship with them.

— Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@ creators.com.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) +++ You might not be aware of how possessive you can be when it comes to a project that you consider to be “your baby.” Tonight: Make it your treat.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ++++ You could be in the midst of an emotionally volatile situation and not know it. Tonight: Get into the weekend ritual.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ++++ You seem to be in a mood where you think that living in a closed-off world would make you happy. Tonight: Far away from the raving crowd.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ++++ You will lighten up and have a better time than you might have thought possible. Tonight: Accept a friend’s invitation.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) +++++ Refuse to get stuck in antiquated thinking. You might be overwhelmed. Tonight: On a roll if you are out and about.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) +++++ Reach out to someone at a distance in order to get a new perspective. Tonight: Cheer on the weekend by trying a new activity.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ++++ Touch base with a dear friend who often adds to the moment; you’ll feel more upbeat as a result. Tonight: Throw yourself into the moment.

DOZENS OF EAGER PATRONS line up Thursday for the opening of Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Store at 27th and Iowa streets.

New fabric, craft retailer opens

N

othing says fall like pumpkin spice and a head-to-toe wardrobe of fleece. There is obviously no shortage of pumpkin spice, as intravenous drip bags of it are now available on every corner. But I do have news on the fleece front. A national chain fabric and craft retailer has opened along south Iowa Street.

Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Store has opened its Lawrence location in the shopping center at 27th and Iowa streets. The store

Town Talk

Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

officially opened at 9 a.m.

Thursday with a ribboncutting and several give-

aways. Apparently there are people who love fleece even more than I do (or perhaps they thought there was a pumpkin spice giveaway) because there was a line outside the store of several dozen people about a half-hour before opening.

Whatever the case was, the competition level in the fabric and craft world has increased in Lawrence.

Jo-Ann occupies the space that formerly housed Hancock Fabric, a national chain that went bankrupt.

Hancock primarily was a

fabric and sewing store.

Jo-Ann has a full line of fabrics and sewing supplies, but also has a larger inventory of crafting items.

I got to take a special preopening walk through the store (it may or may not have ended prematurely when I rolled in a pile of fleece). Among the categories of crafting items were scrapbooking items, food crafts like cookie cutters, holiday decoration kits, craft paints and several other categories.

The store is broader than

Hancock but not as large as Hobby Lobby and Michaels, the two large craft and fabric superstores in town.

In addition to the numerous customer giveaways, local schools are set to get something from the store.

The company plans to provide a $2,000 grant to one school in the community, according to a press release from the company.

Long-term mortgage rates decline Associated Press

Washington — Longterm U.S. mortgage rates declined this week, moving closer to historically low levels.

Mortgage giant Freddie Mac said Thursday the average for a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage eased to 3.47 percent from 3.52 percent last week. The benchmark rate is down from 3.76 percent a year ago and close to its alltime low of 3.31 percent in November 2012.

The 15-year fixed-rate mortgage, popular with homeowners who are refinancing, ticked down to 2.78 percent from 2.79 percent.

The low rates have continued to lure buyers into the market. Data issued Thursday by the National Association of Realtors showed that more people signed contracts to buy homes in September, an increase that likely points to rising sales in the closing months of the year.

The Realtors’ seasonally-adjusted pending home sales index rose 1.5 percent last month to 110.

Pending sales contracts are a barometer of future purchases. A sale is typically completed a month or two after a contract is signed.

To calculate average mortgage rates, Freddie Mac surveys lenders across the country at the

beginning of each week.

The average doesn’t include extra fees, known as points, which most borrowers must pay to get the lowest rates. One point equals 1 percent of the loan amount.

The average fee for a 30-year mortgage rose to 0.6 point from 0.5 point last week. The fee for a 15year loan was unchanged at 0.5 point.

Rates on adjustable five-year mortgages averaged 2.84 percent, down from 2.85 percent last week. The fee held steady at 0.4 point.

100% of money raised goes to several ministries I support and an adopt a family. Plan to attend.

Folks who have been coming for years bring their totes to haul their treasures. I suggest you do the same.

My prices are cheaper than most thrift stores.

I have been decorating elderly homes & nursing home residents who have no family for years. This year is no different. The $ raised also goes to buy more Christmas throughout the year to keep up that project of bringing a smile to a shut in, elderly, nursing home, hospital patient or V.A. veteran over the holidays.

Thank you for coming & supporting the various ministries.

I will have for sale: Snowmen, santas, angels, reindeers, penquins, trees from mini to 7.5’, (new), cookie jars, cake tier plates, tins, relish trays, 3-4 sets dishes, garland, lights, 2 dozen or more

LHS soccer falls in regional final

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Jackson feeling at home in Kansas You won’t catch Josh Jackson glancing at his watch — an old expression that means turning your palm upward to check the time on your iPhone — because he’s not counting down the months, weeks, hours, minutes and seconds until his required year of college basketball is behind him.

On the contrary, Jackson is putting as much effort into the experience as possible so that he can draw knowledge from it that will benefit him Jackson for the rest of his life.

“I think that’s the cool part about it, being able to go from stage to stage, going from high school to college, hopefully college to the NBA,” Jackson said.

“You get to start over again, learn so many new things.”

Getting pursued by all the college basketball blue bloods and those striving to recruit against the giants wasn’t all that bad either.

After all, who wouldn’t want to answer his phone and hear the voice of the funniest, frankest NBA commentator ever.

“I was a little bit surprised, really surprised, didn’t know what to say to him, really,” Jackson said of the first of two phone calls from Sir Charles Barkley. “He was just telling me about the recruiting process. He was telling me Auburn was a great place, how much fun he had there, things that they could do for me there.”

And, of course, he made Jackson laugh, because if you’re as good at that as Barkley is, why not?

“Oh yeah,” Jackson said.

“He definitely showed a little humor. I think that’s just his personality.”

Barkley wasn’t even the biggest NBA name developing a relationship with the Detroit native. Magic Johnson shared his love of Michigan State and Magic’s name echoes even more loudly in Michigan than in Los Angeles.

“Magic was telling me to keep up the good work I had been doing in high school,” Jackson said.

Even with such charismatic Hall of Fame basketball players, both outstanding representatives of their universities, Jackson chose Kansas and seems so happy he did. It’s obvious he very much enjoys his teammates and can’t wait to battle with and for them.

“My intensity comes from the legacy, the history (of Kansas basketball) and from these guys’ intensity,” Jackson said, pointing to teammates. “I see how hard they go in practice, how bad they want to win. I don’t want to be the guy on the team who didn’t try hard enough, so as long as they’re trying, I’m trying. If they’re fighting, I’m fighting.”

It’s oh-so easy to envision Jackson, years after his long NBA career has ended, surprising the nation’s No. 1 high school basketball recruit with a sales call.

Olathe — Lawrence High’s boys soccer players sat on their bench fighting tears when Olathe East players raised their regional title plaque and jumped around with their student section

Thursday. It was too painful to watch for most LHS players after a 3-0 loss at College Boulevard Activity Center.

“It’s horrible. I mean, going into the game, we thought we were going to win,” LHS senior defender Charlie Carr said. “There was no doubt in my mind

that we were going to win this game, even though we were the ninth seed. We had so much confidence and it was just a couple of slipups.”

Facing the top-seeded team in the Class 6A Northeast regional bracket, the ninth-seeded Lions wanted

to keep the score close and keep their energy up for a late score or potential overtime periods.

But the Hawks (17-1), undefeated against teams from Kansas, scored two of their goals in the second half to

FREE STATE’S MURPHY O’MALLEY, left, congratulates teammate Mya Gleason after a point against St. Teresa’s on Oct. 11 at FSHS.

When Free State High’s volleyball team started the season, juniors Erin Cushing and Murphy O’Malley were hoping to find ways to crack the varsity rotation.

Two months later and the Firebirds can’t imagine playing without them.

Cushing and O’Malley have only improved throughout the season, helping the Firebirds earn their first trip to the Class 6A state tournament in 12

Lions turning page after recent losses

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

After back-to-back losses by more than 20 points, Lawrence High football players are more than happy to turn the page to the postseason.

There was no time to dwell on the losses ahead of a first-round playoff matchup against 14th-seeded Blue Valley West (2-6) at 7 tonight at LHS. “We just need to get our minds right,” senior running back Trey Moore said. “We actually have a shot of go-

ing to state and stuff, so we have to figure that out and just need to move on from there. We all had a big talk after the last game and we all just said, ‘Hey, it’s time to kick it in because if we lose, we go home.’”

Senior linebacker Erik Shackelford said the thirdseeded Lions (5-3) were “embarrassed” by their 56-7 loss against Free State last week, but the biggest thing on film was small mistakes compounded into points on the scoreboard.

years. The Firebirds open at 9:30 a.m. today at the Topeka Expocentre, facing Shawnee Mission East (28-8), Shawnee Mission Northwest (16-20) and Blue Valley West (39-0) in pool play.

The top two teams in pool play will advance to Saturday’s state semifinals. Free State beat SM East and SM Northwest in a home quad on Sept.

first month of the season.

That includes Free State’s defense with Cushing and O’Malley, which has helped the Firebirds to an 11-match winning streak.

“Just every practice we just focus on that a lot,” O’Malley said. “I feel like we’ve gotten a lot better with that. Just before every serve, I’m like, ‘Serve me, I’ve got this.’ I just have to tell myself that and then I’m good for the rest of the game.”

Firebirds counting on strong defense

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

On a five-game winning streak, Free State High football players are thrilled with the progress of their defense.

Facing several unique offensive styles, the Firebirds have only allowed 38 points in their past five games. One of their biggest strengths is stopping rushing attacks and they know it’ll be needed when they play 11th-seeded Wichita South (4-4) in the first round of the Class 6A playoffs at 7 p.m. today at Free State.

Sporting loses to Sounders in playoff

By Tim Booth AP Sports Writer

Sounders 1, Sporting Kansas City 0 Seattle — Nelson Valdez scored his first MLS goal in nearly a calendar year on a header in the 88th minute to give the Seattle Sounders a 1-0 victory over Sporting Kansas City on Thursday night in the knockout round of the MLS Western Conference playoffs.

With Seattle pressing for a winner in the closing minutes of regulation, Joevin Jones’ cross found Valdez at the near post and his quick header easily beat goalkeeper Tim Melia.

It was Valdez’s first MLS goal since Oct. 28, 2015, against the Los Angeles Galaxy in the knockout round of last year’s playoffs. Valdez has had numerous chances during the season but finally got one in the net, even though it appeared on replay he may have been offside on the winning goal.

Seattle will face FC Dallas in the Western Conference semifinals. Game 1 of the two-leg series is Sunday in Seattle.

Lions CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1D

The Jaguars are led offensively by their running backs: junior Adam Davis (402 yards), junior Jake Kidd (310 yards) and freshman Riley Cummings (288 yards).

But they’ve only averaged 11.4 points per game.

“We’re not healthy and we’re not deep,” LHS coach Dirk Wedd said. “We’re getting exposed in some positions that we knew we’re going to be tough to cover. I still think we’re a really, really good football team if we can get healthy. Hopefully, Friday night, we show people that we’re more like the first six football games and not the last two.”

On offense, the Lions were without junior quarterback Dante Jackson for the second half of both losses in the past two weeks because of an ankle injury. Without his usual presence on offense, the Lions had trouble finding a rhythm, but players are confident they will regain their groove against Blue Valley West.

The Lions averaged 38 points per game during the first six games, but have only scored 33 points in the past two weeks.

“He’s had a good week of practice,” Wedd said of Jackson. “I mean, he’s not 100 percent, but I feel a lot better than I did last week.”

But with the do-or-die mentality of the postseason, the Lions were happy with their practices following their City Showdown loss and know what is at stake in the postseason.

“I told the young guys,” Moore said, “‘Please don’t make this my last game. Help me and I’ll help you and we can make this a good season.’ All of us seniors, we’re not ready to hang up our pads any time soon.”

COLLEGE FOOTBALL ROUNDUP

Virginia Tech holds off Pitt, 39-36

By Will Graves AP Sports Writer

No. 25 Va. Tech 39, Pitt 36 Pittsburgh — Jerod Evans shook off a right ankle injury to throw for a career-high 406 yards and two touchdowns and lead No. 25 Virginia Tech to a 3936 victory over Pittsburgh on Thursday night.

Joey Slye tied a school and Atlantic Coach Conference record by kicking six field goals and Isaiah Ford’s 10 receptions included his school-record 23rd receiving touchdown as the Hokies (6-2, 4-1 beat the Panthers (5-3, 2-2) on the road for the first time in 17 years.

Evans left briefly in the third quarter after getting his right leg rolled up on but returned to overwhelm

one of the nation’s worst pass defenses.

Bucky Hodges caught six passes for 145 yards and a touchdown and Cam Phillips added 109 yards receiving as Virginia Tech all but ended Pitt’s hopes of an ACC Coastal Division title.

James Conner ran for 141 yards and three touchdowns for the Panthers. Nate Peterman completed 13 of 22 passes for 267 yards with a touchdown and an interception while also catching the first pass of his career as Pitt offensive coordinator Matt Canada went deep into his playbook once again. Pitt offensive tackle Brian O’Neill scored his second touchdown of the season, this time on a pitch from Peterman that resulted in the 6-foot-6, 300-pound O’Neill barreling over the goal line

NBA Roundup The Associated Press

Hawks 114, Wizards 99 Atlanta — Dwight Howard dominated the boards in his Atlanta debut, Paul Millsap scored 28 points and Tim Hardaway Jr. ignited the new-look Hawks to a 114-99 victory over the Washington Wizards in their season opener Thursday night.

Howard grabbed 19 rebounds to go along with 11 points, just what the Hawks expected from their new center, and it certainly wasn’t unusual for three-time All-Star Millsap to lead the way in scoring.

But Hardaway’s performance was totally unexpected given the way he struggled in his first season with the Hawks, when he was largely confined to the bench and even forced to spend time in the D-League.

and practiced for it, so we’re ready.”

Fresh off a 56-7 victory in the City Showdown against Lawrence High, the sixth-seeded Firebirds (6-2) wanted to make sure they carry that momentum into the postseason.

Plus, they think it’s an easy transition from a rivalry game to a playoff game.

“Our attention has always been the same: the next game on our schedule is the most important game,” senior Drew Wise said. “So it’s really not that hard, it’s another game.”

Eddis added: “All the games are doing is getting more important. Rivalry games are important but when it comes to the playoffs, it’s do-or-die.”

Bulls 105, Celtics 99 Chicago — Dwyane Wade scored 22 points in a triumphant Chicago debut, Jimmy Butler had 24 and the Bulls won their season opener, beating the Boston Celtics.

Wade nailed a 3 from the corner in the final minute to make it a five-point game. Taj Gibson added 18 points and 10 rebounds, and the new-look Bulls got off to a winning start after missing the playoffs last season for the first time since 2008.

Isaiah Thomas led Boston with 25 points.

Avery Bradley had 16, and Jae Crowder 14 points, but the Celtics came up short after opening with a win over Brooklyn the previous night.

The Bulls remade their roster in the offseason, games, but are averaging 32 points per game this season. They only ran for 27 rushing yards against Wichita Heights last week, but created 305 passing yards from quarterback Evan Kruse.

“If they don’t have a lot of success immediately, they are going to start throwing the ball and they can throw it all over the place — they’ve proven that,” FSHS coach Bob Lisher said. “They can score a lot of points and it’s going to be a challenge for us defensively to adjust to what they’re doing.”

KANSAS BASKETBALL

Self, Underwood renew friendship

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

While it’s clear that Kansas coach Bill Self is excited to have all three newcomers in the conference — he said Texas Tech’s Chris Beard would win a congeniality award among Big 12 coaches and added that it was only a matter of time before Jamie Dixon got things rolling at TCU — it’s Oklahoma State’s Brad Underwood who Self has the most signficant personal connection to among the trio of firstyear Big 12 bosses.

Asked about their relationship — past and present — during Tuesday’s Media Day, Self was equal parts complimentary and class clown.

“I showed Brad around on his recruiting visit to Oklahoma State,” Self recalled. “I was a freshman and he was a senior in high school. Thank God, for Oklahoma State, Brad is a much better coach than he was a player. He was actually a guy I hoped that we could sign because I didn’t think that that would take away many minutes.”

With the laughter from the media members in attendance still audible, Self transitioned into talk about the path that led Underwood to his alma mater.

“He has done so well,” said Self of Underwood, who was 89-14 in three seasons at Stephen F. Austin from 2013-2016.

“What he did at Stephen F., I mean, that’s remarkable what he did and how players got better.”

It’s Underwood’s coaching chops, along with the passion and character he figures to bring to OSU, that makes Self feel so certain that the Cowboys are in great hands.

“From what I understand, and I don’t need anybody telling me this because you knew it would happen, he’s done an unbelievable job connecting with and reconnecting the OSU community and family,” Self said of Underwood, who played at Kansas State and also coached there under Bob Huggins and Frank Martin from 200612. “And as you guys follow basketball in our

league, Oklahoma State, the tradition and history that exists there, is relevant to the college basketball game on the national scene, as well. I think he’ll do a very nice job in making all Cowboy fans and alums proud.”

That’s the goal, according to Underwood, who said OSU’s history played a big part in luring him to the Big 12.

“I’m an old-school

guy from the standpoint of the tradition means a great deal,” Underwood said. “I still get goose bumps and hair on the back of my neck stands up when I walk into Gallagher-Iba every single day. And I did not get to know Mr. Iba. I got to visit with him briefly when I was at Kansas State with Jack Hartman. I know what a great teacher, innovator

how to say it.”

Offensively, the Lions were limited against OEast’s vaunted defense, which has only allowed 11 goals. Senior forward Cain Scott, who scored 17 goals this year, and

Diagne were constantly marked by two defenders.

“You’ve got to be able to create more offense than we were creating,” LHS coach Mike Murphy said. “But we thought we could keep it close and our game plan was to keep it close. Keep it 0-0, 1-0 game where maybe late you can get a free kick, which we had.”

Olathe East scored in the 19th minute of the first half on a set piece, following a handball from LHS senior goalkeeper Apramay Mishra, who touched the ball outside of the 18-yard box. OEast senior Griffin Stone knocked in a header for a 1-0 advantage.

The Hawks controlled possession for the majority of the first half, creating strong opportunities against Mishra and Lawrence’s back line of defenders — seniors Carr, Cameron Guy, Parker King and DJ Davis. But

each time the Hawks had an opportunity to shoot in the box, usually an LHS defender — or midfielders Spencer Monninger, Husam Aldamen and Ben Matthews — could deflect shots away.

Despite being outshot, 13-1, in the first half, the Lions remained confident at halftime that they could find a way to score in the first 10 minutes of the second half. They created a pair of opportunities, but neither found the back of the net.

Ultimately, the Lions were proud of their accomplishments this season, including a 9-8-1 record and their first regional win since 2012 earlier in the week, but just devastated by the ending.

“Our C-team freshmen year was 0-16,” Carr said.

“We didn’t think we were going to be this good. To get one win away from double-digit wins, I mean, we couldn’t have asked for much more.”

practice, the only question was how long before moving on to other drills.

“We knew from the start,” Free State coach Amy Hoffsommer said, “that we were not going to be good unless we had a passer out of serve receive and we had a decent defense behind it.”

Cushing and O’Malley have answered any and all question marks. Cushing, who played juniorvarsity last year, has emerged as an athletic libero with the speed to get to most balls that fly over their big block. She’s recorded a team-best 312 digs in 90 sets.

O’Malley, who was on Free State’s C-team last season, was called up to

varsity on Sept. 10 when several seniors were forced to miss a tournament because of ACT testing. She recorded 20 digs in those four matches and remained in the varsity lineup, Hoffsommer said, because of all the leadership qualities she brought to the court.

The two have played together since the third grade at Corpus Christi and were coached at the youth level by O’Malley’s mother, Colleen.

“We’re kind of a pair,” Cushing said. “We work together. We bring a lot of energy, for sure. I think that helps us out this year.”

Along with all of their defensive duties, the

5-foot-6 Cushing and 5-foot-5 O’Malley are usually the loudest and most expressive players on the floor. That includes calling out spots on the floor during play and celebrating afterward.

With strong defense, the fourth-seeded Firebirds (33-6) have realized their potential. The offense is as advertised, but the defense has only continued to improve.

“Erin and I are pretty loud and kind of annoying,” said O’Malley, noting she loses her voice after most matches. “But I mean, if you don’t have loud people, then you can’t have a loud team — and loud teams win.

We’ve proven that.”

put a stop into any upset bid.

With 21 minutes remaining, Olathe East senior Shane Kopplin scored on a rebound when a breakaway opened a couple of chances inside of the box, delivering a gut punch to the Lions who were hoping to build an offensive attack in the final minutes with frequent substitutions.

Olathe East senior Isaac Scott added a goal with 8:40 left, driving a shot into the back of the net on a pass from senior Julien Denis that went through the teeth of the LHS defense.

“I never, never had that (feeling) before,” senior midfielder Ebrahim Diagne said. “It’s our senior year and we’re never going to play again. It’s just really hard. I don’t know

hitters — seniors Naomi Hickman and Payton Gannaway, junior Cameryn Thomas, sophomore Rachel Hickman and freshman Kaitlyn Hamilton — the Firebirds knew the key to their season was on the defensive end.

Passing out of serves was one of their big issues at the beginning of the season, needing consistent passes to setters Jenalee Dickson and Mya Gleason to start the offense. So it wasn’t a matter if the Firebirds would work on it during

Dodge City — On the road against top-seeded Dodge City in a regional final Thursday, Free State High’s boys soccer team lost in overtime, 1-0.

Sexton sets decision date With November fast approaching and a decision from five-star Class of 2017 point guard Col-

lin Sexton expected soon, the No. 7 ranked player in the country, according to Rivals. com, has pinpointed a date for his decision.

According to a report from Pat Lawless of GiveNGo on MadeHoops.com, Sexton will announce his college of choice on Nov. 10, one day before Kansas plays Indiana in the season opener in Honolulu.

Although Georgia Tech and NC State technically remain alive in the Sexton sweepstakes, many national recruiting analysts have pegged this as a battle between Kansas and Alabama.

Sexton visited KU for Late Night in the Phog earlier this month and said he was blown away by what he experienced.

Sexton’s timeline, along with the Nov. 10 decision date laid out by John Petty, a four-star guard from Alabama who many believe is leaning toward Alabama over Kentucky, has some wondering if Sexton will wind up with the Crimson Tide.

We’ll know in two weeks.

Beaty wanted OU aide Riley to join KU staff

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Every week when David Beaty previews his team’s upcoming foe, the Kansas football coach with seemingly endless ties to his home state of Texas references various assistants he knows on opposing staffs and praises them for what they’re accomplishing.

Beaty delivered more of the same leading up to the Jayhawks’ trip to face No. 16 Oklahoma on Saturday, and shared his admiration for Sooners offensive coordinator Lincoln Riley dated back a few years. In fact, Beaty hoped to add Riley to his staff when he took over KU’s program in December 2014.

“I couldn’t hire him, so I hired his brother,” Beaty said, referring to offensive analyst Garrett Riley, who began working at KU early this year, “and he’s over here with us and he’s really good.”

Both Lincoln and Garrett walked on as quarterbacks at Texas Tech, and Garrett eventually transferred to Stephen F. Austin. The Riley brothers worked together on the East Carolina staff before Lincoln moved on to join Oklahoma in January of 2015.

Earlier this week, Lincoln told The Oklahoman he thinks his younger brother, who coached receivers at ECU in his final year there, has done a nice job making his own way in the coaching profession.

“I like the fact that we’ve been together a bunch, and I like the fact that he can get off and do his own thing,” Lincoln said of Garrett. “Would I like to coach with him?

Sure. To have your brother there and a guy who I also think is a really, really good coach, certainly I would. But he’s in a really good spot and learning a lot and growing a lot as a coach and doing a really good job.”

Beaty, who referred to OU’s coordinator as a “really, really close, dear friend of mine,” knows Kansas (1-6 overall, 0-4

“

I couldn’t hire him, so I hired his brother.”

— KU coach David Beaty, on OU offensive coordinator Lincoln Riley and KU offensive analyst Garrett Riley Big 12) will have its hands full while trying to slow down his buddy’s numerous skill players. The KU coach called Sooners running back Joe Mixon one of the Big 12’s best players, after the sophomore became the first player in Oklahoma’s acclaimed history to gain 200 rushing yards and 100 receiving yards in the same game (Mixon also scored five touchdowns).

No Okoronkwo for Oklahoma When OU’s offense rests Saturday at Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium (6 p.m. kickoff, FOX Sports 1) and Beaty’s takes the field, junior KU quarterback Montell Cozart might have a slightly easier time extending his no-sack season than anticipated.

Sooners coach Bob Stoops said outside linebacker Ogbonnia Okoronkwo (7.0 sacks, 8.5 tackles for loss) will not play against the Jayhawks.

The Norman Transcript reported Okoronkwo suffered from dehydration following OU’s 66-59 shootout victory at Texas Tech.

Stoops said redshirt freshman Ricky DeBerry and true freshman Mark Jackson would play more with starting linebacker Okoronkwo out.

Cozart enters the road test 81-for-131 on his passes this season, with seven touchdowns and six interceptions. Cozart threw for a season-best 250 yards this past week against OSU after taking over the starting position.

KU hasn’t won a game outside of Lawrence in 41 tries. The Jayhawks have lost 38 consecutive true road games and haven’t won a Big 12 game on the road since 2008 — a streak of 33 games.
