ome see a horse, and bring a toy. It is a new twist to one of Lawrence’s long-standing holiday

traditions. For the 23rd year, downtown will be the site of the Lawrence Old-Fashioned Christmas Parade, a unique event that features horse-drawn wagons and carriages from across the region. But for the first time, the event also is partnering with the Blue Santa and the Toys for Tots program to collect toys and donations for families in need this holiday season. “The theme of this year’s parade is memories,” said Patty Kennedy, the secretary and treasurer for the volunteer organization that runs the parade. “We’re trying to give kids some good memories.” This year’s parade is set for 11 a.m. Dec. 5. As usual, the route will run from Seventh and Massachusetts streets, head south, and go through South Park. The horses and rigs then will find their way back to the horse trailers and pens at the Douglas County Fairgrounds in eastern Lawrence. As for the toy giving, volunteers will be stationed from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Dec. 5 in the parking lot of Central Bank of the Midwest at Ninth and Kentucky streets. People can drive-thru and drop off a new toy or a donation to be used for the programs. “It could be absolutely marvelous the number of toys we collect,” said Elaine VanDeventer, director for the parade. On good weather days, the parade has been estimated to draw more than 20,000 people to the downtown area, VanDeventer said. She said families seem to love the chance to see a unique site that brings back memories of a different time. “Many kids haven’t seen a horse, or at least haven’t been able to be that close to a horse,” VanDeventer said. “You see a lot of excitement on the faces of the kids.” Adults get fairly excited about some of the sights too. The bigger wagons and the larger

team of horses particularly get the crowd worked up, she said. “It seems like people get really excited about the big rigs,” VanDeventer said. “They should. It is a major undertaking to drive that many horses.” This year the parade is expected to have at least two six-horse rigs, VanDeventer said. One team of horses will be pulling a restored stagecoach that has not made an appearance at the parade for several years, and the other team will be pulling a large, custom-built wagon that is making its debut at the parade. “There are some awful big wagons,” VanDeventer said. “They’ll be crowdpleasers.” In total, VanDeventer expects about 50 participants in this year’s parade, which is about an average number for the event. Participants come from all over the region. Parade organizers provide participants a hotel room, a meal and boarding facilities for the horses at the Douglas County Fairgrounds. “It is a lot of work and expense for people to be in the parade,” VanDeventer said. “But they love their horses and rigs, and they love sharing them with the public.” Kennedy said funding to keep the parade operating has improved recently. In past years, the parade had lost a major corporate sponsor, and organizers were concerned about its future viability. City commissioners, however, have increased the city’s contribution to the parade to $8,000 a year — from the city’s special tax charged on hotel rooms — and that has helped the organization approach private donors more confidently. For the second year in a row, the Lawrence Arts Center is providing a $5,000 donation to the parade. The arts center received a gift from an anonymous donor, who instructed that $5,000 go to the parade. “People have been very generous to the parade,” Kennedy said. “It is an event people love.”

KANSAS UNIVERSITY’S MCCOLLUM HALL WAS DEMOLISHED WEDNESDAY. This sequence of six photographs shows the 10-story, 220,000-square-foot building falling in a 20-second span.

McCollum Hall falls in ‘a beautiful shot’ By Sara Shepherd

Twitter: @saramarieshep

rowds gathered around the Kansas University campus to watch the end of McCollum Hall Wednesday morning. And the implosion of KU’s largest building did not disappoint. As planned, following a series of police siren blasts, the booms started at 9 a.m. In less than 20 seconds, the 10-story, three-wing, 220,000-square foot building buckled in the middle and crumbled in on itself under a massive plume of dust. When the dust cleared about a minute later, all that was left of McCollum was a pile of twisted concrete and rubble. “In demolition parlance, it was a beautiful shot,” said project manager

What comes next? Once crushing, hauloff and backfilling is complete — anticipated to take until February — KU will turn the space into a parking lot for Daisy Hill residents. This fall, two new residence halls opened to replace McCollum, the conjoined Oswald and Self halls housing 350 students apiece. KU’s Central District redevelopment plan calls for constructing another new residence hall near Oliver Hall and an apartment style residence hall near 19th Street, downhill from McCollum, within the next couple of years. KU Student Housing director Diana Robertson said McCollum’s demolition, a monthslong process including pre-demolition and site cleanup, cost about $880,000. That cost was included in the $48.6 million pricetag for Oswald and Self halls. Opened in 1965 at 1800 Engel Road, McCollum initially housed more than 900 students. Robertson said roughly

Tripp said the building came down just as the blasting contractor had planned. He said no one was injured, and there was no apparent damage to anything but McCollum. The crowd of onlookers included a mix of McCollum alumni, families with small children out of school, amateur photographers and people who just wanted to see a really big building implode. Shaymarie Genosky, of Lawrence, was one of the McCollum alumni watching from West Campus. She said she recalled walking into McCollum — where she lived during her freshman year at KU, 2005-06 — for the first time and thinking the dated dorm “was pretty gross.” But she said she made a lot of good memories and a lot of good friends there. Genosky said she was a little surprised at her reaction to seeing the building’s demise. “When it went down, it was kind of sad,” she said. “It was kind of sentimental.” Her boyfriend, Andy White, of Lawrence, who was a frequent visitor at the hall, said he was impressed by the demolition. “I was not disappointed,” he said. “That was a pretty amazing spectacle.” Other alumni watching the implosion included Rick Werp, of Madison, Ala., and his daughter Kristin Werp, of Kansas City, Mo., who both lived in McCollum 45 years apart. Rick Werp said he was in a three-man room for his freshman and sophomore years, starting in 1966. When Kristin Werp moved in for her freshman year in 2011 — “I chose McCollum because it was the cheapest,” she said — she said her dad marveled at how much the same it looked. Same linoleum, same furniture, same doors. As soon as she heard about the implosion, she called her dad to make sure he’d be coming to Kansas for Thanksgiving

Affidavit details alleged home invasions, sex assault By Caitlin Doornbos Twitter: @CaitlinDoornbos

The night of terror ended with police discovering two naked women screaming in the streets of central Lawrence. By 10:52 p.m. Nov. 7, Lawrence police had already been to three residences in the 800 blocks of Alabama, Maine and Missouri streets within the past half hour reporting a white man armed with a gun had forced his way into their homes. But what they would hear from the two women would take the investigation to a new level. The women — we’ll call them Mary and Jane — alleged that the following occurred just minutes before they made contact with police, according to the recently released arrest affidavit in the case: Mary, who is in her 30s, was asleep next to her baby in a bassinet in her room when she awakened to a stranger — later identified as Ryan Allen Miller, 36, of Lawrence — standing between her bedroom door and bed. Mary said Miller made a “threatening remark,” “climbed into her bed” and held what Mary believed to be a black handgun “against her face,” according to the affidavit. Mary yelled out, which awakened Jane, who was asleep in another room. Jane then came to the bedroom and flipped on the light. “Turn the (expletive) light off,” Miller allegedly ordered Jane, and she complied. Miller then allegedly directed Jane, who is in her 50s, to come to the bed and asked if there was anyone else in the residence. “(Miller) then stated if (Jane) lied to him, he would ‘blow the baby’s head off,’” according to the affidavit. Next, Miller allegedly ordered the women into the baby’s nursery to perform oral sex on him as he held the handgun near their heads. They then moved to another bedroom, where Miller allegedly demanded they disrobe. He told the women to lie on the bed, where he raped Jane, according to the affidavit. As he was allegedly doing so, Miller put his handgun down, so Mary tried to run from the bedroom. Miller allegedly chased after Mary and fought with her in the front room of the home. That’s when Jane got up, grabbed the handgun, pointed it at Miller and pulled the trigger. But it didn’t go off. Jane then struck Miller several times on the head with the gun — which police would later determine to be a BB gun shaped like a 9mm handgun — then Mary and Jane fled the home. Jane ran to a neighbor’s home to call police, and Mary screamed for help in front of her home until officers arrived. Mary cried to police that she believed her child had been abducted after Miller made a “veiled threat,” but officers found the child unharmed in the bassinet inside. They also found Miller naked and hiding in the home’s unfinished basement. They arrested him and took him for a rape test kit at Lawrence Memorial Hospital, then interviewed him at police headquarters where he confessed to his alleged crimes, according to statements made in the affidavit. Police would later search the home and find evidence to support the victims’ and Miller’s accounts of the night. Miller’s Puma athletic shoes and a pair of Hurley jeans were found with a cell-

phone and digital camera on the floor in a bedroom. Inside the back pocket were Miller’s driver’s license and ATM card. Mary’s, Jane’s and Miller’s undergarments were discovered in the other bedroom.

Ryan Allen Miller, 36, of Lawrence, is charged with rape, criminal threat, two counts of aggravated criminal sodomy, four counts of aggravated burglary and four counts of aggravated assault. If he is lll convicted of the crimes, he The events with Mary could spend the rest of his life in prison.

and Jane marked the end to a string of burglaries the night of Nov. 7, according to the affidavit. At 10:23 p.m., Miller allegedly got his start at a home in the 800 block of Alabama Street where a woman lived in a loft apartment. The woman told police that she was alone in the apartment when she heard someone creeping up the stairs to her loft. Startled and knowing she’d left her door unlocked, she hurried to lock it — but not be-

fore the intruder, allegedly Miller disguised in a hunting mask, was able to enter the apartment and point a handgun at her. The woman “yelled at (Miller) to exit her apartment,” grabbed the handgun and “pushed it up and away from her person,” according to the affidavit. The two then struggled for control of the gun, which left the woman with a hand injury. The suspect’s mask

was knocked off in the struggle, and he then fled with the gun from the scene. Seven minutes later, police received another report of an alleged aggravated burglary and aggravated assault just one block west of the first residence, according to the affidavit. At 10:30 p.m., two men and two women at a home in the 800 block of Maine Street said Miller, whom

they did not know, had entered their home and pointed a handgun at each of them. As he walked through the residence, Miller allegedly told the victims that he “did not want to kill anyone.” Three of the four victims told officers they feared for their lives during the ordeal and were “traumatized.” Miller then left the home. Miller would later tell police he only went to the home “because he knew the police would be looking for him and going through the residence would be a short cut,” according to the affidavit. Five minutes after that, officers were dispatched to a home in the 800 block of Maine Street. A man there reported at 10:35 that he was using his computer in his bedroom when he

heard his bedroom doorknob turn and the door open slightly. This time, the suspect was met with a greeting instead of screaming. “Hey, what’s up?” the man reportedly said to Miller. Miller said he responded with a “My bad,” before shutting the bedroom door and leaving the residence, according to the affidavit. The man said he thought Miller may have gotten into his home through an unlocked back door. Miller would later say he “failed miserably” at attempting to steal an item or items from the home, according to the affidavit. It was only 17 minutes later when officers working the scene in the 800 block of Maine Street would hear the desperate cries of Mary and Jane. Please see AFFIDAVIT, page 8A

Black leaders group calls for voter signups on Election Day “

Topeka (ap) — The Kansas Black Leadership Council is asking the state to allow people to register to vote on Election Day. The Wichita Eagle reports the proposal was included in the council’s 2016 legislative agenda and is a response to the state’s requirement that people provide proof of citizenship, like a birth certificate or a passport, in order to register to vote. State law requires voters to register at least 21 days before the election so local election officials can process applications and check for proof of citizenship. Bonita Gooch, the council’s president, said in a statement that allowing people to register to vote on Election Day would eliminate an extra step for those who don’t have the proper documentation when trying to register before the elec-

It’s that second step, going back and turning in your proof of citizenship, that hangs people up.”

— Bonita Gooch, president of the Kansas Black Leadership Council

Affidavit CONTINUED FROM PAGE 6A

Miller is currently in the Douglas County Jail on a $1 million bond as he awaits his two-day preliminary hearing in the case beginning Dec. 16. He is charged with rape, criminal threat, two counts of aggravated criminal sodomy, four counts of aggravated burglary and four counts of aggravated assault. If he is convicted of the crimes, he could spend the rest of his life in prison. After his arrest, Miller reportedly told police in an

tion, and address concerns about voter fraud. Voter fraud concerns prompted the citizenship requirement. “It’s that second step, going back and turning in your proof of citizenship, that hangs people up,” Gooch said. She said that the proposal would also give the state an opportunity to address concerns that the citizenship requirement has made it more difficult for people to vote. Secretary of State Kris Kobach said he opposes same-day registration and that it leaves the door open for voter fraud. “Because our polling

places are not connected electronically, it makes it possible for a person to show up at polling place No. 1, register and cast a vote, then show up at polling place No. 2, register and cast a vote, and then show up at polling place No. 3, register and cast a vote. And there is no way to retrieve those duplicate votes once they are cast.” Bills to create Election Day registration are expected to be introduced in both the Kansas House and Senate during the next session. A hearing regarding a challenge to the proof-ofcitizenship requirement is scheduled for Dec. 4 in Kansas City, Kan.

interview that he committed the acts on Nov. 7 “to steal items that he could readily convert to cash” to pay bills and his vehicle’s tow fees, and to purchase methamphetamine. According to the affidavit and the Kansas Department of Corrections, Miller was on probation for a 2012 aggravated battery conviction out of Wyandotte County at the time of the incidents on Nov. 7. According to Wyandotte County court documents, Miller had a criminal history score of H — meaning he had been convicted of just two misdemeanors — before his sentencing for his

2012 case. The only other record in Douglas County District Court on Miller is from 2014 when he was evicted from a trailer home. Since then, according to the Douglas County Jail booking log, Miller had moved into a home in the 1300 block of Tennessee Street — about 1 mile from the string of crimes Nov. 7. If you have any information on Miller or the alleged crimes on Nov. 7, call the Lawrence Police Department at 830-7400.

Take time to remember what you’re thankful for Dear Readers: Happy Thanksgiving! We hope you are fortunate enough to be spending the holiday with family and friends, and that you will remember those who are alone and would love to be included with your family. Dear Annie: A while back you printed a letter from “Desperate Times,” a disabled single mother of two. She said her parents offered to buy her a house, but her sister tried to block it. I have two sisters and a brother. My brother had a heart transplant 25 years ago. He had four children and was inundated with medical bills. Our parents bought a house for our brother and his family to live in. As our parents grew older, I suggested they give the house to my brother now, not as part of his inheritance later.

Mom said it wouldn’t be fair to the rest of us. She explained that a few years before, she and Dad wanted to give our brother $1,000, but didn’t feel it fair unless they gave the same amount to all of us. I remember how grateful I was, since it took two years off of our mortgage. I reminded Mom that they had always been there for each one of us kids when we needed them, and each one of us needed them in different

Macy’s, dog shows and football For some time now, Turkey Day has gone to the dogs. NBC continues its daytime tradition of airing the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade (8 a.m.), followed by the National Dog Show (11 a.m.), a “Best in Show”-like competition held at the Kennel Club of Philadelphia. John O’Hurley and David Frei host. Fox devotes its prime-time block to “The All-Star Rescue Dog Celebration” (7 p.m., TVPG). After a long day — or even days — spent in the company of family and friends, w h o doesn’t want to change the subject and focus on pets? “All-Star” is in its second year of celebrating America’s rescue dogs, raising awareness of canine issues and encouraging people to adopt rescue animals. Throughout the special, celebrity guests will introduce the audience to adoptable rescue dogs. Kaley Cuoco of “The Big Bang Theory” hosts; those scheduled to appear include dog champions Miley Cyrus, Chelsea Handler, Paula Abdul, Valerie Bertinelli, Carrie Ann Inaba, Cesar Millan, Florida Georgia Line, Kathy Griffin, Scarlett Johansson, Whitney Cummings, Olivia Munn, Emmy Rossum, Sia and Zendaya.

One network has chosen Thanksgiving, the most American of holidays, to introduce a TV trend from Europe. “Slow TV” presents documentaries that unfold over hours in real time. Norwegian television has invited viewers to take a sevenhour train ride in 2009 and, later, a ship cruise experience that lasted 134 hours! “Railroad Alaska: Real Time Ride” (8 a.m., Destination America, TV-14) is relatively “short,” at a mere five hours. But don’t worry if you missed some of the “action.” It will repeat (1 p.m.) immediately after the first showing. For those who prefer their viewing a little more shaken, not stirred, there’s a two-day James Bond marathon on Epix, beginning with “Goldfinger” (6 a.m.) and wrapping up with “You Only Live Twice” (3:45 a.m., early Saturday morning).

The Shout! Factory TV streaming service offers a sixhour “Mystery Science Theater 3000” marathon, hosted by creator Joel Hodgson, beginning at 11 a.m.

CNN invites viewers to embark on 11 episodes of “Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown,” from Quebec (4 p.m.) to Detroit (2 a.m.).

Common bonds Thanksgiving is a good time to focus on what binds humanity together rather than what threatens to tear it apart.

f the conversation at your Thanksgiving table turns to politics today, some points made by former President Bill Clinton at Kansas University this week, might be worth pondering. First, even though you like or love those people at the table enough to share the holiday with them, you may not share all of their political views. That’s good, according to Clinton. One of America’s greatest remaining bigotries, he said, is, “We don’t want to be around anyone who disagrees with us.” Diverse groups with varied opinions are much more likely, he contended, to come up with creative ideas and solutions. Those solutions often require compromise, but that’s also a good thing, said Clinton, who was in Lawrence to accept the 2015 Dole Leadership Prize presented by the Dole Institute of Politics. Although the institute’s namesake, former Sen. Bob Dole, wasn’t able to attend Clinton’s lecture, the former president was free with his praise for Dole and his willingness to work in a bipartisan manner. When Clinton was president and Dole was the president of the U.S. Senate, they often were on opposite sides of an issue, Clinton said, but they kept their doors open to potential compromise. “One of the things I always liked about Bob Dole is that he could fight you like there’s no tomorrow, but he never closed the door on something that could help a real person.” Clinton also extolled the U.S. Constitution, which is designed to require compromise. The essence of the Constitution, he said, really boils down to “Let’s make a deal.” On Thanksgiving, it also seems appropriate to consider Clinton’s message about the common bonds of humanity. The sequencing of the human genome determined that all of humans’ physical differences — race, gender, body type, etc. — account for only one half of one percent of the human genome. “It means that we’re 99.5 percent the same,” Clinton said. It’s wrong, he said, to believe that our differences outweigh our commonalities. That may seem a little simplistic, but it’s a nice thought on a day like today. We all should be thankful that we live in a country that allows us to freely discuss and debate our different points of view. Along with that right, however, comes a responsibility to listen to one another, consider other points of view and, finally, be willing to compromise for the benefit of “real people.” Bob Dole and Bill Clinton didn’t often agree, but instead of letting their differences lead to gridlock, they found ways to work together and benefit the common good. It’s a model that others would do well to emulate today. Whether you talk about politics or the weather today, we hope you have a wonderful holiday surrounded by friends and loved ones — those who agree with you, as well as those who don’t! Happy Thanksgiving! LAWRENCE

University correctness runs amok Washington — Give thanks this day for some indirect blessings of liberty, including the behavior-beyond-satire of what are generously called institutions of higher education. People who are imprecisely called educators have taught, by their negative examples, what intelligence is not. Melissa Click is the University of Missouri academic who shouted “I need some muscle over here” to prevent a photojournalist from informing the public about a public demonstration intended to influence the public. Click’s academic credentials include a University of Massachusetts doctoral dissertation titled “It’s a ‘Good Thing’: The Commodification of Femininity, Affluence and Whiteness in the Martha Stewart Phenomenon.” Her curriculum vitae says she studied “advanced feminist studies.” Advanced. The best kind. University of Missouri law students, who evidently cut class the day the First Amendment was taught, wrote a social media policy that included this: “Do not comment despairingly (disparagingly?) on others.” A grammatically challenged Ithaca College professor produced this cri de coeur regarding the school’s president: “There have been a litany of episodes and incidents during (his) tenure here which have led to frustration because, when brought to his attention, the view of the protesters is that he has been unresponsive.” Symptomatic of Ithaca’s intellectual flavor is another professor, who says agriculture is “capitalist, racialized patriarchy.” The University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, an iro-

The master of Yale’s Pierson College said his regrettable title reminds distressed students of slavery. Wesleyan University’s student government threatened to cut the school newspaper’s funding because it published a column critical of campus leftists. Wesleyan created a “safe space,” aka a house, for LGBTTQQFAGPBDSM students (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Transsexual, Queer, Questioning, Flexual, Asexual, Genderf---, Polyamorous, Bondage/Discipline, Dominance/Submission, Sadism/Masochism). A Washington State University professor said she would lower the grade of any student who used the term “illegal immigrants” when referring to immigrants here illegally. Another Washington State professor warned in his syl-

labus that white students who want “to do well” in his “Introduction to Multicultural Literature” should show their “grasp of history and social relations” by “deferring to the experiences of people of color.” Another Washington State teacher, in her syllabus for “Women & Popular Culture,” warned that students risk “failure for the semester” if they use “derogatory/oppressive language” such as “referring to women/men as females or males.” The University of Tennessee’s Office of Diversity and Inclusion, worried that students might be uncomfortable with gender specific pronouns (he, she, him, her), suggests genderneutral noises (ze, hir, xe, xem, xyr). The University of California system’s sensitivity auditors stipulated that “hostile” and “derogatory” thoughts include “I believe the most qualified person should get the job” and “America is the land of opportunity.” The University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point’s list of racial microaggressions includes “America is a melting pot” and “There is only one race, the human race.” Some Johns Hopkins University students proclaimed themselves microaggressed by the possibility of a Chickfil-A restaurant on campus. (Chick-fil-A’s CEO defines marriage as Barack Obama did until 2012.) Mount Holyoke College canceled its annual production of “The Vagina Monologues” because it is insufficiently inclusive regarding women without vaginas and men who, as the saying goes, “self-identify” as women. “Gender,” said a student, “is a wide and varied experience, one that

cannot simply be reduced to biological or anatomical distinctions,” and the show “is inherently reductionist and exclusive.” Writing in the University of California, Berkeley paper, two geographically challenged students objected to a class featuring Plato and Aristotle and other “economically privileged white males from five imperial countries (England, France, Germany, Italy and the United States).” A branch of the University of California, Irvine’s student government passed a resolution against the display of flags. Written by a student in the School of Social Ecology (“transformative research to alleviate social inequality and human suffering”), the resolution said flags are “weapons for nationalism” and “construct” dangerous “cultural mythologies and narratives” and “paradigms of conformity” and “homogenized standards” and interfere with “designing a culturally inclusive space.” Students on Columbia University’s Multicultural Affairs Advisory Board suggested trigger warnings for persons who might be traumatized by reading, say, Ovid’s “Metamorphoses,” wherein some myths portray bad sexual behavior. But a feminist blog warned that the phrase “trigger warning” itself needs a warning attached to it because it might remind people of guns. But, then, the word “warning” might (substitute word for “trigger”) fright. So, today give thanks that 2015 has raised an important question about American higher education: What, exactly, is it higher than? — George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

From that seed grew a mighty nation of refugees, people who now have the luxury of fearing refugees and complaining about the color of a coffee cup.”

sion, and suddenly the socalled “War on Christmas” is all over the news again and Donald Trump is calling for a boycott. Over a red cup. This is what you’d call a First World problem. That is, the kind of thing that seems a problem when your stomach is full and the lights are on. In Syria, they have not the luxury of First World problems. In Syria, people find themselves trapped in an internecine war, rebel factions fighting the government of strongman Bashar al-Assad. After four years, the death toll stands at about a quarter of a million. One of the victims: a baby killed in a mustard gas attack in August. Estimates vary, but about 10

million people — roughly half the population — have been displaced, including over 3 million who have fled the country. The United States has taken in 1,500 of them, with an additional 10,000 scheduled for entry in 2016. But that won’t happen if some of us have their way. In the wake of the recent terrorist attacks in Paris and reports that one of the terrorists managed to sneak into France on a false Syrian passport, 31 governors — all but one a Republican — have declared that they will seek to bar the refugees from their states. Presidential wannabe Ben Carson compared them to rabid dogs and complained that there is no vetting process. The House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly to impose harsh new restrictions. It is not hard to understand where all this is coming from. Fear is a master motivator. But where fear is allowed the last word, terrorism is superfluous. So it’s worth noting a few things.

One: Governors have no say in whether this country accepts refugees. Two: These are human beings, not dogs, rabid or otherwise. Three: The process for becoming a refugee is already pretty restrictive. Contrary to what Carson says, refugees face a vetting process that can stretch up to two years. They are scrutinized by the United Nations, the State Department, the FBI, the National Counterterrorism Center and the Department of Homeland Security, their stories are checked, they are interviewed in depth, subjected to fingerprinting, and even eye scanning. Does any of this mean there isn’t at least a minuscule chance of a terrorist getting through? Of course not. But a terrorist could also get through by posing as a student or tourist. It sure worked for the Sept. 11 hijackers. The only way to be completely safe from foreign terror is to close the borders: No one in or out, ever. Even then, you’d still

have domestic terror to contend with. So we might as well choose to give a d—n about bedraggled people fleeing a war zone. Not only because it’s the moral thing to do, but because it’s the thing most consonant with who and what we are supposed to be. It’s fitting that we’re having this discussion while preparing to celebrate America’s first refugee crisis. A bunch of boat people — diseased, unable to speak the language, a drain on the economy — washed up on these shores and the first Americans took them in. From that seed grew a mighty nation of refugees, people who now have the luxury of fearing refugees and complaining about the color of a coffee cup. Not to put too fine a point on it, but that cup is in celebration of Christmas, which is the birth of Jesus. He was, you will recall, born in a barn to Mary and Joseph and laid in a manger. Because there was no room for them in the inn. — Leonard Pitts Jr. is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

OBAMA: HOLIDAY WILL BE SECURE

No evidence of terrorist plot, president says David Jackson USA TODAY

young people in this oil- and gasrich region hunger for a Westernstyle education, U.S. universities have not only brought it to their door, as in other cities such as Dubai and Abu Dhabi. They’ve brought just the specialized slice that sets them apart from competitors: Northwestern has exported its flagship journalism and communication programs; it joins Georgetown’s School of Foreign Service, Carnegie Mellon’s sciences and business administration programs, Texas A&M’s engineering programs, Virginia

There is no specific and credible evidence that a Paris-style terrorist attack is being planned for the USA this holiday weekend, President Obama said Wednesday after meeting with national security aides. “We are taking every possible step to keep our homeland safe,” Obama said after his meeting, adding that U.S. military, intelligence and law enforcement officials are “working overtime” this Thanksgiving. EPA As officials President bolster security Obama at the nation’s borders and airports, Obama urged Americans to go about their Thanksgiving activities as usual but to be vigilant about unusual activity. “If you see something suspicious, say something,” Obama said. “That’s always helpful.” The national security team briefed Obama “on our homeland security posture in the wake of the tragic attacks in Paris and as we enter the holiday season,” the White House said in a statement. Shortly after the president’s remarks at the White House, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson echoed his message while boarding an Amtrak train at Union Station in Washington. Speaking on one of the busiest travels days of the year, Johnson said government officials remain vigilant, and so should transportation passengers. “Basically, they are reinforcing existing security measures,” he said. “It should be obvious to the public that there is a heightened presence in places like in Union Station here, at airports and other public gathering places. In general, we want to encourage people as the holiday season begins to travel, be with your families, celebrate the holidays, go to public events — and be vigilant and be aware.” Homeland security officials stepped up their efforts in the wake of terrorist attacks Nov. 13 in Paris that killed at least 130 people. The Islamic State, which claimed responsibility for the attacks, made more threats against the United States and its allies.

DOHA , QATAR When Amy Kristin Sanders’ students at Northwestern University’s 7-year-old journalism program wanted to learn more about the death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., Sanders did what any good instructor would do: She put together a twoweek mini-course on the shooting, complete with readings on the larger economic and social issues surrounding it. Then she piled her students onto an airplane and visited Ferguson. Last summer, Sanders and her students flew nearly 7,500 miles to Missouri and spent two weeks in residency at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. They interviewed locals shopping at the farmer’s market, toured areas where protests broke out and swarmed around Ferguson’s tiny City Hall. They sat down with Ferguson’s part-time mayor, James Knowles III, an old college classmate of Sanders’. “I think they had some pretty

Viral ‘miracles’ a terror tool in Mali Soumaila Diarra

Special for USA TODAY

BAMAKO, MALI When I woke up last Friday morning, the first thing I heard was news of the terrorist attack on the Radisson Blu Hotel in my city. I couldn’t help it — my first thought was how lucky I was. I could have been among those who were trapped in that hotel. I was there the day before, about 10 hours before the assault began. Scarier still, the terrorists, who had registered as guests days earlier, were already there. My second thought was that although the attack may have shocked me initially, it did not really surprise me. Neither will the next one or the one after that. That’s because terrorists here have been operating openly for years — and growing around the country. You can blame “miracles” for that. These are the stories of babies who are born with marks on their skin in the shape of Arabic letters or other such nonsense

EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY

Security forces surround the Radisson Blu Hotel during a hostage situation in Bamako, Mali, on Nov. 20. Twenty people died in the raid on the luxury hotel. that goes viral and lures the young to jihadi movements. It’s easy to find these on social media. This “miracle” recruiting has been going on for years, especially in Mali, Nigeria, Senegal and Guinea — but also in Europe and elsewhere. In my region, the growth in popularity of these miracle stories often predicts a growth in jihadist movements. But somehow, the main fight against militants focuses on military tactics, security measures

and, crazily enough, peace talks instead of dispelling these miracle stories and educating people so they become immune to superstition, indoctrination and recruitment. In 2013, French military intervention pushed militants out of their main strongholds in northern Mali. Instead of intensifying the fight against them, as is going on in Belgium and France these days, the international community concentrated

its efforts on finding a peace deal between the Malian government and the armed militants. This was a mistake, and one I fear we will pay for for years to come. I have watched with dismay how these groups, entrenched in the north, began expanding to the center of the country and later to the south after 2013. Their recruitment efforts are intensifying. The attack on the Radisson Blu is a symbol of their success and underscores their boldness. As these terrorists kill our people and destroy our cultural heritage, in which religious diversity plays a key role, there is a great silence in Mali. Take Al Mourabitoune, the alQaeda-linked group that used Twitter to claim responsibility for the attack on the hotel. The Islamist propaganda it spews thrives on social media. At first, I was surprised, then dismayed to notice the absence of negative reactions to hate talk. The situation is dire: A recent study by GREAT, an independent research organization, reported that more than half of Mali’s Muslims are in favor of sharia law, even though we have always been a culture that accepted the diversity of faith. The

study detailed how many youngsters in Mali may accept “miracle” propaganda or even join such groups as a way to secure their future. As this recruitment goes viral, I worry about more than just our homegrown terrorists. I worry about the threat actually growing and being centered here. The terrorists who attacked the Radisson Blu Hotel in Bamako spoke English, according to Guinean singer Sekouba Bambino, a witness at the hotel. This speaks to the probability that they were not from Mali. In 2013, when northern Mali was occupied by jihadists, many militants from Nigeria’s Boko Haram found a perfect training ground for their recruits. So did militants from other places such as Egypt, Somalia and Sudan. Our challenge is to avoid hosting such people again or offering our young to them as “soldiers.” The only way to do that is to cherish our diversity, our culture that goes back thousands of years, our freedom, and teach our young to respect those, too, rather than buying into miracles.

IN TEXAS, GOING THE DISTANCE FOR AN ABORTION State cuts a number of clinics, making choice a matter of miles

Richard Wolf @richardjwolf USA TODAY

None of the obstacles Texas placed in her way was going to keep Veronica from driving 125 miles to her appointment at Whole Woman’s Health clinic last Friday. With her 3-year-old and 1-year-old in tow, she was determined to get an abortion. The state didn’t make it easy. There used to be a clinic 50 miles away in Corpus Christi. But Texas — which she likens to a “big bully” — is more than halfway to its goal of reducing from 44 to 10 the number of licensed clinics in the nation’s second-largest state. In the end, Veronica — who did not want her last name used because of the personal nature of the procedure — came up short of money and postponed her trip. She doesn’t blame the state for that, but she’s concerned about the law’s restrictions nonetheless. “It is a hassle and a struggle,” she says. “If we get rid of all the clinics, what choice do you have?” Texas’ abortion law — which the Supreme Court this month agreed to review early next year — unquestionably has made abortions harder to come by. The first closings put at least 300 miles between Lisa Marii Montes’ home in Midland and the nearest clinics in El Paso, Fort Worth and San Antonio. En route to Whole Woman’s Health last month, she had a change of heart. “It’s a costly procedure as it is, so adding on travel costs and accommodations is inconvenient,” Montes says. “If it were more accessible, it may have made a difference in my decision.” The stories of both women illusSAN ANTONIO

ERIC GAY, AP

Opponents and supporters of an abortion bill gather in a courtyard outside a hearing at the Texas Capitol on July 2, 2013. trate the human stakes involved in the most important abortion case to come before the high court in a quarter-century. Restrictions imposed by Texas legislators in 2013 and upheld by a federal appeals court in June will test how far states can go under a 1992 Supreme Court decision, which upheld the right to abortion but allowed limits that do not impose an “undue burden.” Texas’ limits require clinics to meet tougher building standards and doctors to have admitting privileges at local hospitals. The law has reduced from 44 to 19 the number of abortion clinics in Texas, where about 60,000 women seek abortions every year.

Nearly 300,000 women live more than 200 miles from the nearest clinic. The Whole Woman’s Health clinic would be forced to close. The surgical center around the corner — where state Health Department officials arrived unannounced last Wednesday for an inspection — would survive. That’s a problem for low-income Latina women in the Rio Grande Valley, whose only remaining clinic in McAllen would have just one semi-retired doctor licensed to perform abortions. A trip to San Antonio would take four hours and include a Border Patrol checkpoint that undocumented workers fear crossing. It’s also a problem for women

who live in Texas’ vast western frontier and Panhandle, whose choice would be driving hundreds of miles east to San Antonio or Fort Worth or getting their abortions in neighboring New Mexico because the lone El Paso clinic would be shuttered. “It’s difficult for patients to navigate this network of sham laws that Texas has created,” says Bhavik Kumar, 30, a doctor who shuttles between the Whole Woman’s Health clinics in San Antonio and Fort Worth, sometimes performing as many as three dozen abortions in a day. Abortion opponents dispute claims that their goal is to shut down as many clinics as possible and make it more difficult for women to access legal abortions. “We realize that there’s not a realistic way to ban abortions,” says Joe Pojman, executive director of Texas Alliance for Life. Given that, he says, “we believe that the states should protect the health and safety of women who are undergoing abortions.” Andrea Ferrigno, vice president of Whole Woman’s Health, says requiring hospital-like settings isn’t necessary for most early-term abortions. “An abortion experience doesn’t have to be an ugly, awful experience,” Ferrigno says. “It can be one of the most empowering experiences a woman has.”

Andrea Ferrigno is corporate vice president of Whole Woman’s Health clinic, and Bhavik Kumar is a doctor in San Antonio.

‘Multiversity’ attracts students from 70 countries v CONTINUED FROM ????

Commonwealth University’s art history and design programs and Weill Cornell Medical College. The schools, as well as others from around the region, occupy a “multiversity,” laid out on a 2,500-acre campus northwest of central Doha. It attracts students from more than 70 countries. Created and underwritten by the Qatar Foundation, which has close ties to the Qatar royal family, Education City has reset educators’ expectations about what’s possible. Northwestern, which arrived here in 2008 and is renting space from Carnegie Mellon, awaits completion of its own palatial

building across the quad. Designed by New Mexico architect Antoine Predock, the sprawling modernist building is set to open in late 2016 or early 2017, and will be unlike anything most inkstained reporters ever experienced in college. Predock himself has said the sustainable, limestone-clad, state-of-the-art building will feature “inner spaces that are sheltered, verdant and oasislike, while the exterior is still quite rugged.” It’ll also be sturdy enough to withstand daytime temperatures that can reach 130 degrees F. In an era when the outlook of American journalism, and journalism education, are generally bleak, the outlook here seems

downright cheerful. “Academics never expect to be operating out of these palaces,” said Everette Dennis, the Northwestern program’s dean and CEO. A media veteran whose résumé includes stints at the Freedom Forum and Columbia University, Dennis has spent much of the past 40 years on U.S. college campuses, where “a kind of lethargy” has often set in, he said. In that sense, the Doha experiment is unprecedented. “There’s an enormous air of optimism,” he said. “There’s a chance to really experiment and build new institutions, which is almost unheard of elsewhere.” Patti McGill Peterson, presidential adviser for global initia-

tives at the American Council on Education (ACE), a Washington association that represents U.S. college presidents, has visited Education City twice in the past few years and recalled, “There was no other country in the region that wanted to do something that ambitious.” Mohamed Abdel-Kader, of the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Postsecondary Education, said he recently visited students at Georgetown’s foreign service program and was “blown away” by the students’ poise, their ability to articulate complicated positions and by “their depth of knowledge of international issues.” Across the region, Abdel-Kader

said, education “has been elevated on the agenda. ... For some of these nations that were founded in the ’70s and in some cases the last 50 years, they’re spending to build infrastructure, and in some cases to play catch-up.” Just as in the USA, he said, educators in the Middle East are beginning to realize that students there are not only competing with students from around the region — they’re competing with students from the USA, United Kingdom, Singapore, China and Japan, among others. Sanders, 36, left a tenured position at the University of Minnesota in August 2014 to teach here. She has not looked back. “This is my dream job,” she said.

Affordable Care Act, early treatment linked Study: More cervical cancers detected Liz Szabo

USA TODAY

The Affordable Care Act may have helped more women get early treatment for cervical cancer, according to a preliminary new study. The fraction of young women whose cervical cancers were found and treated early — when women have a better chance of survival — increased after 2010, when the ACA expanded insurance coverage to young people by allowing them to remain on their parents’ health plans. Before the 2010 insurance expansion, 71% of cervical cancers in women 21 to 25 were found early, at stage 1 or 2, according to the study, published Tuesday in JAMA. That percentage rose to 79% after the expansion.

“Finding this cancer earlier will give women more choices of treatment.” Kevin Ault, University of Kansas Medical Center

More women also were eligible for less aggressive treatments after the insurance change took effect, the study said. The percentage of women in this age group who were eligible for less aggressive treatments also increased, rising from 26% of cervical cancer patients before the coverage change to 39% after, according to the study. When cervical cancer is caught early, doctors can treat it with relatively small surgeries that leave the uterus intact, so that women can still have children, said Xueson Han, director of surveillance at the American Cancer Society, which led the study. “Cervical cancer is a young woman’s disease,” said Kevin Ault, a professor at the University of Kansas Medical Center. “Finding this cancer earlier will give women more choices of treatment.” A study like this can’t prove cause and effect. There’s no way to definitively prove that it was the ACA that led to women getting earlier care for cancer. But researchers found evidence that supports the notion that the ACA should get credit: There was no significant rise in the percentage of cervical cancers found early among women 26 to 34, who weren’t eligible for the 2010 insurance expansion.

JAPAN STRUGGLES TO SAVE SHRINKING AGRICULTURE INDUSTRY EVERETT KENNEDY BROWN, EPA

Kirk Spitzer

USA TODAY

NIIGATA , JAPAN

t doesn’t look like much. A few mismatched plots of farmland wedged between busy highways and commercial developments on the outskirts of this midsize city. But if Ryusuke Goto, 27, can find success as a rice farmer under relaxed rules and regulations introduced last year, he could help spark a turnaround in Japan’s long-declining agricultural industry. “The situation has become very serious. The population is shrinking; the number of farmers is declining. But I think we are beginning to see a change. I’m actually quite optimistic,” said Goto, whose fields are located in a special farming district created last year. Japan’s agricultural sector has long been a model of inefficiency: tiny farms burdened by heavy regulation, propped up by government subsidies and protected by a vast array of tariffs and import controls. While food is plentiful and quality is high, prices paid by Japanese consumers can be twice as much as in other countries. In the United States, the number of small family farms also is shrinking and the average age of farmers is rising despite government subsidy programs that encourage small operations. But the average farm size is much larger than in Japan, given the USA’s greater land mass, and agribusiness increasingly accounts for most farm production. The result is that the U.S. has one of the most efficient food production systems in the world and among the lowest prices for consumers. The Japanese model, however, has become increasingly untenable. Japan’s farm and general population are both getting smaller and older, and a pending 12-nation trade agreement — the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) — will end government support and protection for scores of products. According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing,

AIRSTRIKE THAT KILLED 30 BLAMED ON HUMAN ERROR

Human error was the primary cause of an airstrike that killed 30 people last month at a hospital in northern Afghanistan, Army Gen. John Campbell announced Wednesday. The crew of an AC-130 gunship believed they were striking a building several hundred yards away, not the Doctors Without Borders trauma center in Kunduz, Afghanistan, Campbell, the top commander in Afghanistan, said in a briefing. Thirty-seven people were wounded in the strike. Technical problems also contributed to the “tragic mistake,” Campbell said. The crew failed to “undertake appropriate measures” to determine whether the hospital was a viable target, Campbell said. He summarized the findings of the military’s investigation but did not release the full report. —Tom Vanden Brook

A manhunt is underway for terror suspect Salah Abdeslam, whose brother Brahim was among attackers who blew themselves up. Authorities say Abdeslam, who is Belgian, fled to Brussels from Paris after the brutal attacks. Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel said Monday that Brussels faced a “serious and imminent” threat that requires keeping the city at the highest alert level for at least another week, the Associated Press reported. Rome and Milan also were on alert after the foreign ministry warned that St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City and some sites in Milan might be potential terror targets. In the United States, New York City held an hours-long active-shooter drill earlier in the week. At Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, the Transportation Security Administration urged travelers to arrive at the airport earlier than normal during the Thanksgiving travel season, KARE-TV reported. “They are being even more vigilant than ever with the bags and screening,” MSP International Airport spokesperson Melissa Scovron said. MSP normally recommends an arrival of about an hour and a half before a flight. However, TSA is asking travelers to make it two hours.

Getting shoppers in the doors increases impulse buys that don’t happen online Hadley Malcolm USA TODAY

Over the long holiday weekend, tens of millions of consumers will drive into crowded parking lots, push through hordes of other shoppers and wait on snaking checkout lines to score deals on TVs, sweaters, Star Wars toys and more. This is despite that retailers have made it easier than ever to shop for discounted merchandise from the comforts of home. Even in this increasingly digital world — where a growing number of shoppers purchase products on computers and smartphones — the bulk of spending still happens at brickand-mortar stores. Only about 17% of the total spending expected in November and December will come from online purchases, according to the National Retail Federation. Overall sales, excluding autos, gas and restaurants, are expected to increase 3.7% from last year to hit $630.5 billion, says the NRF. Online sales are expected to rise 6% to 8% and hit up to $105 billion. Roughly 90% of all retail sales still occur in stores, according to

Plus, many people simply like to shop in a physical store, says Jesse Tron, a spokesman for the International Council of Shopping Centers. “There is an inherently social aspect to shopping, and that cannot be duplicated anywhere else,” he says. “It’s equivalent to why I actually enjoy still going to a baseball game. There’s something about actually being there.” Retailers welcome the crowds, particularly because getting shoppers in the door provides an opportunity to encourage impulse buys that typically don’t happen online.

store maps of Black Friday deals to lure those shoppers. At the same time, retailers are catering to the growing number of shoppers using digital devices for both in-store and online purchases. On average, consumers say 46% of their holiday shopping — which includes browsing and buying — will be done online, according to the NRF. About 70% of shoppers use their mobile device in stores for tasks such as comparing prices, getting coupons and reading reviews, according to data from the

International Council of Shopping Centers’ 2015 holiday survey. Far fewer use those devices to make a purchase, as many consumers remain uncomfortable with the idea of buying products through their phone. As retailers work furiously to improve online shipping capabilities, mobile apps, website user experience and online inventory, many are doing it with an eye toward driving in-store purchases. After Target saw online sales increase less than expected in the third quarter, Chief Financial Officer Cathy Smith acknowledged on a call with reporters this month the need to improve the company’s site experience. “Digital is driving traffic to our stores,” Smith said. Roughly 80% of Target’s customers start shopping on a digital channel, while just 3% of its sales occur online, spokesman Eddie Baeb says. Picking up online orders in stores, a feature many major retailers have started experimenting with, boosts sales by spurring additional unplanned purchases. About three-fourths of shoppers who plan to pick up an online order in a store this holiday season say they’ll likely buy more items once there, according to the International Council of Shopping Centers.

THINK BEFORE YOU BUY Here are a few holiday savings tips: uKeep your eye on prices. When you find the identical product on sale for less at a competitor, ask for a price match. Some credit cards offer a program in which card holders can get refunded if the advertised price goes down after they buy. uUse your credit card benefits. If you buy something big — like a major appliance or an expensive TV — check if the credit card company offers extendedwarranty protection. Additionally, try to match your credit card to your purchases. For instance, if you have a card with extra rewards on grocery store purchases, you could use it when picking up gift cards at the supermarket’s kiosk.

in recent years, says Jay Henderson, director of IBM Marketing Cloud. “As retailers make the deals available earlier, (consumers are) shopping earlier, so they can get that out of the way and focus on Thanksgiving Day with their families,” he says.

RODNEY WHITE, THE DES MOINES REGISTER

uLook for free shipping offers. Target and Best Buy will give online customers free shipping on most Black Friday orders with no minimum purchase amount. Watch for similar opportunities at other retailers.

Mark Blakley, 31, from Tulsa says he and his wife, Megan, have purchased several items from their shopping list this week at “Black Friday” prices, including a 16GB iPad Air from Staples that he was able to order at the advertised $319 Black Friday price on Sunday.

They’ll probably still go out to some stores Thursday, he says, because it’s become a family tradition, but they won’t hit as many or spend as much time shopping. “Why go fight the crowds and wait in line for an hour when you can do it for five minutes at home,” he says. Amazon started offering Black Friday deals last Friday and plans to roll out new offers as often as every five minutes through Black Friday on Nov. 27. The prolonged sale is paying off for Amazon, leading to a 12% rise in desktop traffic Nov. 22 compared with average visits over the previous three Sundays, according to SimilarWeb, a market intelligence firm. Target’s “10 Days of Deals” — the retailer rolls out discounts on different categories, such as electronics or kitchenware, every day from Nov. 22 through Dec. 1 — spurred early spending. The retailer’s online sales were up 43.2% over Nov. 1-18 compared with the same period a year ago, according to Slice Intelligence, which monitors email receipts from a panel of more than 3 million U.S. online shoppers. Walmart, which opted for fewer flash deals this holiday season in favor of making promotions available over a longer period of time, saw an online sales uptick of 11.6% in the Nov. 1-18 period, according to Slice.

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

Wall Street will be listening closely to the sound of cash registers ringing up retail sales on Thanksgiving and Black Friday. The reason: the pace of sales could provide much-needed insight into the health of the U.S. consumer, which make up nearly 70% of U.S. economic activity. Investors will want to know how many gadgets and big-screen TVs Best Buy sells. They’ll be analyzing sales at department store giant Macy’s, wondering if the retailer’s recent profit warning was an overreaction or the sign of weak sales and sizable discounts that will add up to lousy profits. Wall Street also will scrutinize sales at Walmart, the nation’s biggest retailer, as well as Target and

Street name stocks do have some street cred Q: Are ‘street name’ stocks dangerous? Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Street tacos are delicious. Street drugs are dangerous. Owning stocks in street name is neither. Investors have three main ways to hold stocks: paper certificates, direct registration and street name. Street name ownership is the default form of holding stocks at most brokerage firms and is typically the best. Stocks held in street name are registered in the name of your brokerage firm, not yours. It’s up to the brokerage to keep track of who owns what shares. Owning stocks in street name has several key advantages, including making the brokerage responsible for safeguarding the shares, unlike with paper certificates. Street name ownership also gives you the freedom to quickly sell the shares or put limits on the way they’re sold. With direct registration, shares are registered in your name. There are advantages to this, too, in that you get dividends and correspondence directly from the companies. But selling can get a bit complicated. You can sell directly through the company’s direct investment plan if available, but there might be fees or delays in when the orders go through. If you want to sell through a broker, you need to instruct the broker to move the securities to their books before they can sell.

MAKING WAVES

The era of Hunger Games is coming to an end. The franchise that made “YA dystopian fiction” its own genre also transformed Jennifer Lawrence from an indie film darling into one of the world’s biggest stars. Plus, it gave us four pretty good films. To mark the final installment, Mockingjay — Part 2, USA TODAY’s Kelly Lawler ranks the four movies.

CATCHING FIRE

Though the original Hunger Games succeeded in adapting its source material, Catching Fire transcended it, turning the second-best book into easily the best film. Fire has a huge advantage: It’s just a more cinematic story. Everything about it is better suited for the screen than the other two in the trilogy, from the Quarter Quell arena being far more visually interesting than the Hunger Games arena to the simple fact that Katniss gets to talk to more people during the Games. The film shapes the many elements of the series — the arena, the love triangle, the revolution — into the most cohesive and fluid story. PHOTOS BY MURRAY CLOSE, LIONSGATE

THE HUNGER GAMES

If this movie hadn’t worked as well as it did, the pop culture landscape would look a lot different. We wouldn’t have Jennifer Lawrence the Phenomenon or the deluge of young adult dystopian fantasy. We wouldn’t be arguing about splitting Mockingjay, because there would be no sequels. But adapting the original story to film was no easy task. We forget, since the recent focus has been more on revolution rather than the Hunger Games themselves, that so much of the first book is children killing children — violence that is difficult to depict onscreen. The first movie stayed true to the book without seeming exploitative or cheap.

MOCKINGJAY PART 1

The decision to split the third book into two movies definitely hurt the sequel more, but Mockingjay — Part 1 didn’t escape unscathed. The movie has a lot of rising action and a lot of really excellent set pieces, then it just sort of ... ends. Still, the movie added some

excellent characters, from Natalie Dormer’s Cressida (and her amazing hair) to Mahershala Ali’s Boggs to Julianne Moore’s President Coin. But inevitably, as with other films that were arbitrarily chopped (cough, The Hobbit, cough cough), we just wish we could have seen the single movie that Mockingjay could have been.

MOCKINGJAY PART 2

Although the series does go out with quite a bang, that bang isn’t as strong as it has been. Part of the issue with Mockingjay — Part 2 is that the most problematic elements of the book (see: Hijacked Peeta and everything about the ending) are in its second half, which isn’t the movie’s fault. To its credit, the movie does take the opportunity to improve on some aspects of the book, but it just doesn’t take that opportunity nearly enough. There is still plenty to love here, from the action sequences to perhaps Lawrence’s most heartbreaking performance.

Hello, historic sales week for ‘25’ Adele’s 3rd album is unstoppable in just three days Patrick Ryan

@PatRyanWrites USA TODAY

Music fans and experts knew Adele’s third album would be huge, but no one could’ve predicted just how high it would go. As of Tuesday, the British singer’s 25 has sold 2.433 million copies in the USA since its release Friday, according to Nielsen Music. That gives it the biggest sales week since Nielsen SoundScan started tracking albums in 1991. It bests the record set by NSYNC’s No Strings Attached, which debuted with 2.416 million copies in 2000, Billboard reports. In just over three days, 25 is already the top-selling album of the

moved 5.4 million to date.) Adele’s 25 has also sold nearly five times Justin Bieber’s Purpose, which had racked up the

biggest first-week sales of any 2015 album with 522,000 albums sold since Nov. 13. The numbers are even more impressive, considering that 25 does not have the boost of streaming figures factored into its overall sales. (The album is not yet available on music streaming services such as Spotify and Apple Music.) Adele’s sophomore effort 21 also is seeing a sales resurgence. It has moved an additional 13,000 copies this past week for a grand total of 11.2 million in the USA since 2011. It was the top-selling album two years in a row at 5.8 million in 2011 and 4.4 million in 2012. Adele’s Hello is also the most downloaded song of the past week, having sold an astounding 2.6 million copies since its release in late October. She performed the single and new song When We Were Young on Saturday Night Live over the weekend.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY PLAYERS HUDDLE AROUND THE MAUI INVITATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHY following their 70-63 win over Vanderbilt on Wednesday at Lahaina Civic Center in Lahaina, Hawaii.

Selden sparks KU to Maui title By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Lahaina, Hawaii — Wayne Selden Jr., who has had plenty of success on the mainland, seems to take it to another level far from home. One of the stars of the United States gold-medalwinning World University Games team last summer in South Korea, Selden exploded for a career-high tying 25 points off 8-of-11 shooting (4-for-6 from three) and grabbed seven rebounds in KU’s 70-63 Maui Invitational championship victory

Lahaina, Hawaii — It makes little sense that, with its best shooter sitting at home back on the mainland, the Kansas University men’s basketball team would roll through the field at the Maui Invitational with the three-pointer serving as the team’s most dangerous weapon. But, so far at least, hasn’t this been the season of little sense for the Jayhawks?

And though he was thankful the 6-foot-9 freshman forward from Mali had been cleared by the NCAA to play in games starting Dec. 1 versus Loyola, he remained a bit concerned Diallo had to miss two exhibition contests and five regular-season games. “I am very happy he’s eligible,” Self said, “but I will

say me, personally, I do not agree with the contents of the (NCAA’s press) release. I’ll just leave it at that. This was an academic issue, and regardless of what’s been said, it was an academic issue.” The NCAA indicated in a news release: “Based on the amateurism review, the NCAA concluded that Diallo received a limited

amount of extra benefits (that Diallo must pay back to charity). Therefore, Diallo is not eligible to play for five contests, including the four games Kansas has already played.” Don Jackson, the attorney for Diallo’s legal guardian, Tidiane Drame, told the Journal-World the extra benefits totaled $165.

“Those were the alleged benefits that Mr. Drame gave Cheick during the 20day period prior to his legal guardianship going into effect. Totally ridiculous,” Jackson told the J-W. “In that short window, he (Drame) assisted him and was not ‘quote’ legal guardian Please see NCAA, page 8C

(25-22, 25-27, 25-15, 25-16)

Wednesday in Ahearn Field House, doing so in similar fashion to the Sept. 23 matchup in Horejsi Center — by winning the first, third and fourth sets. The Jayhawks (25-2 overall, 13-2 in the Big 12) knew they would have to be dominant on the defensive end, and junior libero Cassie Wait made sure of that by recording 36 of KU’s 110 digs.

“We talk about when a team is really good at something, K-State leads the league in digs, how we want to out-do them in whatever that is,” Wait said. “So that was really, really, really important to us going in.” Wait was one dig off of tying the Kansas record for digs in a four-set match, and she had plenty of help, with Tiana Dockery (21), Ainise

Havili (20), Anna Church (15) and Rigdon (10) each in double figures. “I don’t know when the last time we had 110 digs was, but that number is pretty phenomenal for four sets,” Kansas coach Ray Bechard said. “If you can get 15 or 16 digs per set, you’re in really good shape.” Please see VOLLEYBALL, page 3C

BAYLOR QUARTERBACK CHRIS JOHNSON unleashes a pass against Northwestern State in this 2014 photo. Johnson will be the Bears’ third starting quarterback on Friday against TCU.

Baylor turns to Johnson to start at QB Waco, Texas — Chris Johnson was catching passes instead of throwing them for No. 7 Baylor until about a month ago. Now the third-year sophomore will be the third starting quarterback this season for the Bears, who go into Friday night’s game at No. 15 TCU still with hopes for a third consecutive Big 12 title — and maybe even a spot in the College Football Playoff. “I don’t want to look at it from that perspective as me being the guy to do it,” Johnson said. “I know having my teammates around me, they’re all great players. So I don’t have to go out there and do anything spectacular or special. I just have to go out there and do my job as the quarterback.” Johnson was moved to receiver just before the season after freshman Jarrett Stidham earned the backup role behind starting quarterback Seth Russell during preseason camp. The 6-foot-5, 235-pound Johnson was switched back to quarterback after Russell sustained a season-ending neck injury Oct. 24. And now Stidham is out after breaking a bone in his right ankle during Saturday’s 45-35 win over previously undefeated Oklahoma State. Johnson accounted for three touchdowns in the second half after Stidham got hurt. “With Chris, he always stays ready,” said Corey Coleman, the national leader with 20 touchdown catches. “He’s real humble. He never really says too much. He never complains about anything. He’s really mature.” Even with Stidham taking over the past three games after Russell was the top-rated FBS passer in his seven starts, Baylor still has the nation’s top offense (54 points and 644 yards a game). With Stidham and Johnson both playing against Oklahoma State, the Bears reached 700 total yards for the fourth time this season — and first against a Big 12 team. Stidham already had a sore back before he took a shot on his throwing (right) hand early against Oklahoma State, and then someone rolled up on his lower right leg before halftime. Coach Art Briles said Wednesday that Stidham wouldn’t play in the last two regularseason games but could be back for the Bears’ bowl game. Johnson hit five of 10 passes for 138 yards with two touchdowns and an interception. He ran six times for 42 yards and another score as Baylor beat a top 10 team on the road for the first time in Briles’ eight seasons. Stidham enrolled early at Baylor last January and went through spring drills, just as Johnson did two years before that. Johnson completed his only four passes last season.

PRO FOOTBALL

Broncos add QB Ponder Englewood, Colo. — With Peyton Manning out until at least mid-December, the Denver Broncos bolstered their depth at quarterback by signing Christian Ponder on Wednesday. The former Minnesota Vikings first-rounder will serve as the Broncos’ third QB behind starter Brock Osweiler and Trevor Siemian, a rookie from Northwestern. Ponder can’t have the number he wore at Florida State or in Minnesota — No. 7 — which belongs to Hall of Fame QB John Elway, now the team’s general manager. So, Ponder donned No. 2 instead. Osweiler won his first NFL start last week at Chicago and Manning was fitted for a walking cast on his left foot after consulting with foot specialist Dr. Robert Anderson this week. The Vikings drafted Ponder with the 12th overall pick in 2011. He started 36 games for Minnesota but struggled to live up to expectations, throwing 38 TD passes and 36 interceptions while completing only 59.8 percent of his passes. Ponder signed with Oakland in March but didn’t survive final cuts.

Washington in London for two? London — Washington could become the first team to play two NFL games in London in the same season, and in consecutive weeks. The Redskins will face the Cincinnati Bengals on Oct. 30 at Wembley Stadium, the NFL announced Wednesday. The team could also face the St. Louis Rams a week earlier at Twickenham Stadium depending on how the team finishes in the NFC East. In the first of the three games scheduled for next season, the Indianapolis Colts will take on the Jacksonville Jaguars at Wembley on Oct. 2. The NFL has been playing regular-season games in London since 2007, with every one played at Wembley, the home of England’s national soccer team. But next year will start a new deal to hold games at Twickenham, the home of England’s national rugby team. The Redskins will travel to London for the first time since 1992, when they played the San Francisco 49ers in the American Bowl, a preseason game held at the old Wembley Stadium. But they may be here for a bit longer than every other team that has been coming since the New York Giants beat the Miami Dolphins in a regular-season game in 2007.

CHICAGO WHITE SOX

Orchard Park, N.Y. (ap) — Coach Rex Ryan took the diplomatic approach. The Buffalo coach was told the NFL acknowledged the Bills should have had the chance to run at least one more play in their loss to New England on Monday night. “Sometimes mistakes do happen,” Ryan said Wednesday. “Your reaction at the time may be different, but it’s a human element still in this game.” Ryan’s comments came in response to NFL vice president of officiating Dean Blandino ruling officials made the wrong call in allowing the final two seconds to run off the clock. Appearing on NFL Network on Tuesday night, Blandino said head linesman Ed Walker should have stopped the clock when Bills receiver Sammy Watkins rolled backward out of bounds without being touched at midfield. Instead, Walker ruled Watkins had given himself up inbounds to end the Patriots’ 2013 victory. “You certainly want to give that player the opportunity to get out of bounds, especially inside two minutes,” Blandino said. “And really, that’s what should have happened.” The Bills were unable to stop the clock because they were out of timeouts. Ryan said he was initially upset by the call but, in retrospect, noted the Bills made mistakes, too. He credited the officials for making the right call when the Bills scrambled to make substitutions before New England’s James White scored on a six-yard run midway through the third quarter. Ryan said he was attempting to switch his lineup after seeing New England tight end Scott Chandler running on to the field. Chandler, however, never crossed the numbers and veered back to the sideline before the ball was snapped. The Bills were called offside because they were still in the midst of substituting players. Ryan initially thought the Patriots should have been flagged before learning they followed the rule. “The officials were absolutely right on that,” Ryan said. “I thought they were wrong initially.” It was a mistake-filled game for the officials. Early in the third quarter, an errant whistle nearly negated New England quarterback Tom Brady’s 14-yard pass to Danny Amendola up the right sideline. The completion was allowed to stand even though the whistle blew while the ball was in the air. Officials then ruled the play was dead at the spot Amendola made the catch.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY SOPHOMORE AINISE HAVILI (11) KEEPS THE BALL AWAY from Kansas State junior Katie Reininger.

Volleyball CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

Kansas locked down defensively to battle back from a 15-12 deficit and win the first set — and fought back nearly to win the second as well. The Jayhawks trailed for the majority of the second, but stayed within striking distance thanks to their defensive effort. KU grabbed its first lead of the set since 3-2 when a KSU attacking error from Katie Brand put Kansas up, 22-21. Kansas won two of the next three points — highlighted by an acrobatic Madison Rigdon dig that fueled the Jayhawks to double set point at 2422. The Wildcats fired right back, though, by winning five of the next six points to even the match at 1. “After the second set, we all felt like we should have that one,” sophomore Kelsie Payne, who led Kansas with 23 kills, said. “We didn’t play as well as we could have, so in the third set, we made an effort to play better and do our job together.

And that’s what happened.” Any hopes the Wildcats had of building momentum into the third was quickly put to rest by the Jayhawks. Kansas closed the third set on a 13-4 run and used a 16-7 surge in the fourth to round out the match. “We served very tough,” Bechard said. “Their setter was not in system or didn’t have the option that she needed to have, and Ainise got the ball to the people we needed to.” The victory notched the third 25-win season in the last four years for the Jayhawks. Bechard rewarded his team with a day off today following a morning weights session, but said the Jayhawks will be fully focused for Senior Day at noon Saturday against Texas Tech at Horejsi. “Tech played last Saturday, and they had two three-point games against Iowa State, so obviously they haven’t cashed in,” Bechard said. “This will be their last match because they won’t make postseason. They’ll have some seniors excited about, ‘Hey, what a feather in the cap it would

UNLV tops Indiana in Maui tournament The Associated Press

Top 25 Men UNLV 72, No. 13 Indiana 69 Lahaina, Hawaii — Patrick McCaw scored 20 points and UNLV hung on through the frantic final seconds for a victory over Indiana on Wednesday in the fifth-place game of the Maui Jim Maui Invitational. The Runnin’ Rebels (5-1) bounced back from their opening loss to UCLA with wins over Chaminade and the Hoosiers (4-2), who leave Hawaii with just one win. Indiana trailed by 15 points in the first half and turned on some solid defense to get back in the game. The Hoosiers closed to 55-53 with 8:20 to play. The Runnin’ Rebels then went on a 12-1 spurt, with McCaw scoring seven of the points.

Diallo: ‘I can’t wait’ to make debut By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Lahaina, Hawaii — Wearing a black, button-up KU shirt, khaki shorts and enormous blue-and-white adidas shoes, Kansas University freshman Cheick Diallo sat at the podium in the media room at the Maui Invitational with a look of relief splashed across his face. Seated to the left of Kansas coach Bill Self, who moments earlier hoisted the Maui championship trophy for the first time in four tries, Diallo leaned forward ever

“I saw the Wayne that was in South Korea, very aggressive, made good shots. He didn’t let us down. He got in the paint and found teammates,” said Mason. KU also had Perry Ellis (five points, eight boards) make the all-tournament team. “That’s what we need from him, to get in the paint and make open shots for us. He was great tonight,” Mason added. But what about the MVP trophy that sat in front of the two in the media room Wednesday? “I definitely think Wayne deserves it,” Mason said. “The way he played tonight and the tournament ... we were happy to get the win.” Mason had 14 points, seven assists and six rebounds vs. Chaminade and 16 points, seven assists and five rebounds vs. UCLA. “This is my brother,” Selden said of Mason. “We’ll share (trophy). It’ll be in my room a month and go across the hall in his room a month. We’ll rotate it.” KU coach Bill Self had high praise for Selden, whose only mistakes seemed to be missing four free throws in the final 41 seconds that could have truly iced the game. “Wayne was the best player in the tournament,” Self said. “He was great. But we also had no chance to win unless Frank plays as he did. He is our pitbull with the ball in his hands. If they (share) it, if I’m Frank, I give it to him (Selden) six weeks, and he keeps it two, something like that. Wayne was fabulous the first half. He kept us within striking distance.” Self continued: “The way Wayne played tonight is the way we saw him play eight games in Korea, aggressive, powerful, shot a great percentage but didn’t rely on jump shots. Three games in three days, playing 40 minutes (vs. Vandy) he’s obviously a very wellconditioned athlete.” Vanderbilt coach Kevin Stallings, whose team hit 41.2 percent of its shots to KU’s 45.5 (Vandy hit six of 27 threes; KU eight of 16), said Selden’s play came as no shock. “Honestly, he (Selden) has the easy job,” Stallings said “He has Mason and Graham (Devonté, 12 points, six rebounds, one

so slightly and, with his arms folded, answered a dozen or so questions about the NCAA’s decision to clear him for next week’s game, news that came early Wednesday morning and marked the end of a long battle for eligibility. “I was in my room, and (my coach) called me to come to a meeting room,” Diallo began. “I knew something was going to happen. I was so excited.” That “something” was Self explaining to Diallo that the wait that had lasted months and cost the university nearly

$100,000 to fight for his clearance had come. “I was so nervous, and I was happy at the same time,” Diallo said. “Everybody was texting me, calling me, saying, ‘We heard the great news.’ Even right now, I’m not 100 percent nervous, but I’m so happy.” The ruling by the NCAA to clear Diallo — but slap him with a five-game suspension for receiving impermissible benefits — meant that Wednesday’s 70-63 victory over No. 19 Vanderbilt in the Maui title game was the last time Diallo would have to dress in

street clothes while his teammates prepared to play. That fact was not lost on the 6-foot-9 forward from Mali, who will no longer just be the most decorated pre-game rebounder in the country. “Even on the bench today, I was cheering for my team. I was supporting Kansas so hard,” he said. “I wanted them to win. It was a close game today, but I wanted to push my team, ‘Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go,’ and give energy to my team.” Diallo, who Wednesday night thanked everyone from KU fans to his

high school coach to Kansas administrators and Self, said the past several weeks were stressful. “It was very tough,” he said. “Sometimes I could not even sleep. I was always thinking about what I’m gonna do. I cannot say (enough about the people who helped me). Every time I called my high school coach or even Bill Self, people always said, ‘Don’t let it go, don’t quit,’ and sometimes I just wanted to let it go because it was getting hard. I didn’t have anything to do if I didn’t play this year. I really wanted to play this year.”

Although the Diallo saga is now headed toward a happy ending, the frustration of the past several months was not erased overnight. “I’m kind of mad right now,” Diallo said. “Because they suspended me for five games, and I don’t even know what I did. I should’ve played tonight’s game.” As for if he thinks he’s ready for Tuesday’s home game against Loyola (Maryland), the suddenly smiley Diallo could not hide his excitement. “I can’t wait, man,” he said. “I’m ready. I can’t wait.”

assist) in there penetrating and breaking down the defense. He is standing out there catching and shooting. Don’t get me wrong. He (Selden) made nice plays and drives, too. Nothing about him surprised me. What surprised me is so many times we helped off penetration when we were not supposed to. I didn’t think he was making terribly difficult shots. It’s a testament to their offense and we didn’t guard as well as we need to guard to beat a team of that caliber.” KU trailed by as many as 10 points the first half. However, Selden had five points in a 9-2 run that opened up a 45-38 lead with 13 minutes left. KU led by 13 with 5:09 left, but Vandy stuck close until the final moments. “It was a great win for us,” Self said. “They were far better than us early in the game. Wayne kept us in the game offensively by scoring the ball. I’m so impressed with their (Vandy’s) team. They missed some shots. We defended them well. It was a game with no rhythm, which is good because that’s the way it is late in the season in conference play in a majority of the games.” KU, which next meet Loyola at 7 p.m. on Dec. 1 in Allen Fieldhouse, will enjoy today in Maui before flying home later in the day.

That’s good for games. 46.2 percent and an averBut his Jayhawks sure age of nearly 11 threes challenged that theory per game. The number these past three days in went up to 46.8 percent Maui, and even though by game’s end. Self probably has not In Wednesday’s first changed his philosophy half alone, KU (4-1) on the shot, the best drilled five of 10 from indicator that he’s at downtown, led by the hot least OK with his team stroke of junior guard letting ’em fly was that Wayne Selden, who hit the Jayhawks did not

stop shooting them in Hawaii. KU averaged 23 three-point attempts per game in Hawaii. And 37 percent of the shots KU took this week came from behind the arc. Get this: The Kansas teams with the four highest three-point-shooting seasons in school history (271 in 2010-11 and 2007-08, 262 in 2009-10 and 231 in 2006-07) were coached by Self. Here’s the thing about the three-point shot, basketball’s great equalizer: It can be a lot like the cool kid in class. When it’s forced, it looks awful and rarely works out well. When it comes within the flow of the offense and is the result of touches in the post and an extra pass or two, it looks as smooth as silk. These Jayhawks, at least so far, have the discipline to understand the difference. There are a bunch of guys on this team who love shooting the three, but few who have fallen in love with taking it. That was on full

display during Wednesday’s title game. Selden flashed his step-back game and drove to the rim like he was in Korea. Devonté Graham and Frank Mason III continued to attack the rim and set up teammates. Heck, even Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk, who factored into this tournament almost exclusively as a threepoint marksman, drove to the rim and finished off the glass a couple of times. So maybe those folks pumping out the popular Twitter hashtag #FreeTheThree should consider adding a word to the slogan — #FreeTheQualityThree. This team may never shoot it like Self’s squads that had Tyrel Reed and Brady Morningstar in 2010-11, or the ’08 championship team — each group made a KU-record 271 three-pointers during those seasons — but with all of the weapons the current KU team possesses, both inside and out, it might not be able to avoid it.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY GUARD WAYNE SELDEN JR. (1) PULLS UP FOR A THREE-POINTER against Vanderbilt forward Luke Kornet during the first half of KU’s 70-63 victory in the Maui Invitational championship game on Wednesday in Lahaina, Hawaii. Selden afterward was named tournament co-MVP with teammate Frank Mason III.

NCAA CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

yet. That would be like filing for adoption and providing something two days before adoption became final. Let’s be candid,” Jackson added. “This five-game suspension was nothing more than a pretextual justification for a flawed investigation. There were no legitimate academic issues relative to Cheick’s secondary-school education and no legitimate amateurism issues relative to Cheick’s involvement with Mr. Drame. Conveniently, the fifth game of Cheick’s five-game suspension is today’s game (vs. Vanderbilt). This case cast a spotlight on the flawed methodology of Eligibility Center investigations. This young man served a ‘de facto’ suspension with no credible justification for his suspension,” Jackson added. Regarding the academic side of the case — the alleged lack of enough core courses — that Self mentioned, the NCAA did point out “the university provided new information to the NCAA on Nov. 20, including an independent review of Diallo’s coursework. Based on both the independent review and the Eligibility Center’s existing information, the NCAA approved his initial-eligibility waiver.” So KU’s work in hiring two independent groups that studied Diallo’s core courses at Our Savior New American was a factor in Diallo becoming eligible. As was Drame hiring Jackson to represent him. “That’s been the thing most frustrating to me is the total lack of partnership between the NCAA and its member institutions. Fortunately with us we had the means to stand up and fight for our kid,” Self said. “Fortunately for us we had administration that felt all along we were 100 percent right on this and wanted to fight for our kid (to the tune of about $100,000 in expenses incurred by KU). There’s probably a lot of schools out there that don’t have the means to do this kind of stuff. I do think that’s something moving forward everybody should work better together.” Jackson said flatly: “Had there not been

KANSAS FORWARD CHEICK DIALLO, RIGHT, SITS ON THE END OF THE BENCH during the second half of the Maui Invitational title game. pushback from the university, this would have gone entirely differently. Had there not been joint pushback from the university and Tidiane it would have gone differently. It could have been 25 to 50 percent more games. The worst case scenario is they could have taken away eligibility period.” Jackson is so bothered by the NCAA’s handling of the initial-eligibility case, he recommended schools taking legal action in the future. “It is my hope that this case serves as an impetus for other member institutions and student-athletes to aggressively challenge the intrusive and mainfestly illegal actions of the Eligibility Center in these types of investigations. It is my belief that these investigations will only be modified by action of a federal court. Further, I have said repeatedly over the past decade that it was my belief that these types of investigations were grounded in a discriminatory application of NCAA legislation (to African American and international student-athletes). Today’s decision provided further support for that belief,” Jackson said. Meanwhile, Self, who spoke with Diallo shortly after learning of the decision, finally obtains the services of the McDonald’s All-American. “Cheick is excited. Ob-

viously it is going to be a big relief for him,” Self said. “Hopefully he can get back to just being Cheick and not have so many things hanging over his head. I think he’s done a nice job dealing with the stress. He’s probably done much better than I’ve done. “He never let anger become a factor in this. It was more frustration. With me it would have been total anger the whole time. I think he handled it very well from a frustration standpoint. He hasn’t been himself on the basketball court. He’s been himself off the court for the most part. He’s a happy go lucky kid that hopefully can get back to who he is and not have the stress of not being part of something all along he knew he deserved to be part of.” It could take Diallo awhile to emerge as a force. “He’s been on the second team or scout team for three weeks now,” Self said. “He’s not been able to practice a week. I think he’ll make us better. I think it’ll be one of those things that immediate impact will be limited to what the long-term impact will have, once we get into conference play and February, because he’s raw.”

Zenger: “I really want to thank the NCAA staff for guiding this process to a KANSAS GUARD FRANK MASON III (0) DRIVES against fair conclusion in what Vanderbilt guard Wade Baldwin IV. was a very complicated situation.” Tidiane Drame, legal guardian of Diallo: “I am glad that Cheick was Semifinals Championship Round granted eligibility.
