Rhoden case
inches forward
with brief pre-trial

At this point, very
early on in the prosecution of the four people
directly charged with
the murders of eight
members of the Rhoden
family in Pike County in
2016, gaining discovery,
or information, from
prosecutors appears,
somewhat predictably,
to be the main thing on
the minds of defense
attorneys.
On Monday, family
matriarch Angela Wagner, 48, charged with a
total of 22 counts, most
notably including eight
counts of aggravated
murder each of which
carries death penalty
speciﬁcations, was the
second member of the
Wagner family to face
Pike County Court of
Common Pleas Judge
Randy Deering for a
brief pretrial hearing.
The court session largely followed the script
set during the late
December pretrial hearing of suspect Edward
“Jake” Wagner, 26, the
son of Angela Wagner
and George “Billy”
Washington Wagner
III, who is yet another
murder suspect in the
Rhoden case.
As he did with her
son, Deering begin
the brief proceedings
Monday by asking
Angela Wagner if she
had an opportunity to

speak with her courtappointed attorneys and
was satisﬁed with their
handling of her case to
date.
In both instances,
Angela Wagner quietly
answered, “Yes, Your
Honor.” Those were the
only words she spoke
during the hearing, with
the possible exception
of whispered comments
to her attorneys, who
were seated on either
side of her.
Deering’s next questions were directed to
those defense attorneys.
He asked if they were
satisﬁed with the prosecution’s responses
to their request for
discovery, that is, additional information on
the evidence the state
claims to have against
their client. Columbusbased attorney Robert
Krapenc showed off a
three- or four-inch thick
sheaf of papers and told
Deering he was expecting more information
from prosecutors by
the end of the week.
With all that in mind,
Krapenc said he was
indeed satisﬁed with
prosecutors to this
point.
Because of what
was described as the
voluminous amount of
materials coming from
prosecutors, the defense
asked for and was granted without objection

Fla. felons regain right to vote
By Joshua Replogle
and Adriana Gomez Licon
Associated Press

ORLANDO, Fla. —
The normally humdrum
bureaucracy of registering to vote brought tears
to the eyes of some Floridians on Tuesday when
most felons regained
their right to vote under
a state constitutional
amendment.
“I’ll be a human being
again. I’ll be an American citizen again,” Robert Eckford said, choking
up and weeping after ﬁlling out an application at
the elections supervisor’s
ofﬁce in Orlando.
The ballot measure
went into effect Tuesday, overturning a ban
that netted Florida the
highest number of disenfranchised felons in
the nation. It potentially
increases the pool of eligible voters by as many
as 1.4 million people
in a battleground state
infamous for its narrow
margins in key elections.
“I’m an ex-Marine,”
said Eckford, who served
seven years for a drug
conviction. “I served this
country. I’ve done my
time. I’ve made some
mistakes. But thank God
the system works.”
Nearly 65 percent
of Florida voters last
November approved
Amendment 4, which

pleted their sentence;
they can simply ﬁll out
the existing application,
signing under oath that
their voting rights have
been restored.
Members of the
Florida Rights Restoration Coalition said they
expected the registration to go smoothly.
Despite any confusion,
the organization’s president, Desmond Meade,
encouraged members to
celebrate.

WASHINGTON
(AP) — Former Trump
campaign chairman Paul
Manafort shared polling
data during the 2016
presidential campaign
with a business associate
accused of having ties to
Russian intelligence, and
prosecutors say he lied to
them about it, according
to a court ﬁling Tuesday.
The allegation marks
the ﬁrst time that prosecutors have accused
Trump’s chief campaign
aide of sharing information related to the election with his Russian contacts. Although the ﬁling
does not say whether the
polling information was
public or what was done
with it, it raises the possibility that Russia might
have used inside information from Trump’s Republican campaign as part of
its effort to interfere with
the election on Trump’s
behalf.
The information was
accidentally revealed in
a defense ﬁling that was
meant to be redacted.
The Associated Press
was able to review the
material because it wasn’t
properly blacked out.
In its ﬁling, the defense
was trying to rebut allegations that Manafort
intentionally lied to special counsel Robert Mueller’s team after agreeing to plead guilty last
September. Prosecutors
say Manafort breached
their plea agreement by
lying, but defense lawyers
argued that any misstatements were simple
mistakes made by a
man coping with illness,
exhaustion and extensive
questioning from investigators.
Lawyers say Manafort
suffers from depression
and anxiety, has had little

contact with his family
and, on days when he met
with investigators, was
awakened before dawn to
have hourslong interviews
with little time to prepare
for the questioning.
“These circumstances
weighed heavily on Mr.
Manafort’s state of mind
and on his memory as
he was questioned at
length,” the lawyers
wrote.
Tuesday’s ﬁling
revealed the ﬁrst extensive details of what he
is accused of having lied
about. A spokesman for
Manafort’s defense team
declined to comment on
the incomplete redactions
or on Mueller’s allegations, but lawyers later
ﬁled a corrected version
of the document.
The ﬁling contains new
details about Manafort’s
connection to Konstantin Kilimnik, a RussianUkrainian business associate who was indicted
last year on charges he
tampered with potential
witnesses. The U.S.
believes he is connected
to Russian intelligence,
but Kilimnik, who is
not in U.S. custody, has
denied those ties.
The latest allegations further detail how
Manafort’s work on the
campaign intersected
with his past international work with Kilimnik.
Emails previously
reported by the AP
and other news outlets
show that in July 2016,
Manafort told Kilimnik
he was willing to provide
“private brieﬁngs” about
the Trump campaign
to Oleg Deripaska, a
Russian billionaire with
ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Manafort dangled the
brieﬁngs as he was
mired in a dispute
with Deripaska over a
multimillion-dollar deal
involving a Ukrainian
cable company.

The original completion was contractually
scheduled for Jan. 27,
but the date will be
adjusted due to the high
water which has taken
place recently in the

area, stated Minsker.
Minsker added that a
portion of the project is
expected to be awarded
in February.
As outlined in a public
meeting last fall, there
are four focus areas
for the project, with
the parking lot wall
area being one of those
areas.
The plan for the area
in front of the parking
lot, as outlined at the
meeting, is for there to
be a three foot sandstone parapet wall at

announced his intent to withdraw
American troops from northeastern Syria. Trump “thought he got

record.
An ofﬁcial at Tuesday’s meeting between Bolton and senior
Turkish ofﬁcials said presidential
spokesman Ibrahim Kalin stated
that Erdogan committed that
Turkey would not take offensive
action while U.S. forces were
there.
Bolton departed Turkey without meeting with Erdogan in an
apparent snub by the Turks — the
meeting had been expected for
days. A spokesman for Bolton

and a speech to parliament for not
meeting with him.

the current sandstone,
with limestone then
used the remainder of
the way down the wall.
The limestone would be
placed against the current wall and grouted to
it in order to stabilize
the upstream area of the
parking lot.
The parapet wall will
allow for those standing in the parking lot
and downtown area to
notice no change in the
view. The look would be
different from the river

or from Mason, West
Virginia, with the limestone a different color
and texture than the
current sandstone.
While work will be
taking place to stabilize
the parking lot, the
focus of the project is
the stabilization of the
streambank as it relates
to State Route 833.
The four focus areas

THEIR VIEW

A pragmatic
approach to
resolutions
As I pause to look back over my accomplishments versus my resolutions in 2018, I notice a
couple of things. First, the overwhelming urge to
drift off to sleep, and second, my
“Un-Herb-like” success in completing
each resolution.
Looking over my list of resolutions
for 2018 as compared to years prior,
I took a more pragmatic approach
to the creation of resolutions for
the just completed year. Therefore,
Herb
I scored high with my resolutions
Day

new causes and becoming a kinder,
gentler human being.
Historically, I failed, not within the ﬁrst months,
weeks or days of the new year, but frequently within the ﬁrst hours of the new year — and not with
one or two items on my list, but the entire list.
As a result, I began looking deeper into my
psyche to try and identify the reasons for my
abject failures. After extensive scientiﬁc research
and minute after minute of contemplation, dozing
off, and then more contemplation, I made amazing
earth-shattering discoveries that truly opened my
world and gave me crystal clear insights as to the
problem.
When I would approach the losing weight
issue, I would ponder it with such fervor that
I would think the excess thought power would
send my appetite soaring. By the time I got to
the ﬁnal morsels of my double quarter pounder
with cheese, the darkness of failure blanketed my
weight-loss resolution.
As for my resolution to exercise more, everyone knows you should begin such regimented
programs at the beginning of the week. Further,
everyone knows you should not commence rigorous exercise without the recent approval of a
doctor, and to me, recent would be the day prior
to Monday, which is Sunday, and my doctor is
not in on Sundays. I just can’t take that chance.
Safety ﬁrst! And quite frankly, someone told me
that swimming in the sea of denial was exercise
enough, and that was good enough for me.
My resolution to break bad habits met disaster when I realized that I gave up smoking ﬁve
years ago, so I had no other bad habits – other
than, overeating and not exercising enough, but I
already dealt with those with a resounding lack of
success.
Many would testify to the belief that if I reduced
my workload any further, I wouldn’t bother getting out of bed each day. I disagree though. I
would need to get up to overeat and continue my
lack of exercise.
I usually ﬁnd success in taking up new causes.
For example, occasionally, I might miss the hamper when tossing clothing ready to be washed,
and it winds up falling to the ﬂoor. When my wife
asks why I didn’t pick it up, “cause” is always my
answer. Eureka!
I stopped placing becoming a kinder, gentler
human being on my list after years of not moving
the meter any closer to becoming a kinder, gentler human being. I concluded that I just couldn’t
improve upon perfection.
At the conclusion of 2017, one of my buddies,
Cledus, of Cledus and Eustis fame, told me that
his resolutions for 2018 was not to make two trips
through the buffet line at Ponderosa, but three,
even if it meant taking a nap in between trips. As
for watching his weight, he said that he stopped
doing that as it seemed that everyone around him
was watching his weight for him.
Eustis spoke of his former resolutions to stop
his hair loss. He said that baldness used to bother
him until it became fashionable. He says that he
is in style and doesn’t have to shave it like other
guys do.
I found the exploration of my psyche to be surprising. My research consumed an astonishingly
short period of time and was quite shallow. It did
reveal that the reason for my failure to succeed in
past new year resolutions was not because of poor
planning or forethought, but a complete absence
of self-discipline, which after further analysis lead
to a nap and an overwhelming sense of disinterest.
Looking back, I think I am a better man for it.
Happy New Year.

He handed me a bright

there is no deadline on

Last month, Edward

In one slight devia­
tion from the script of
Edward Wagner’s pre­

for and were granted an
order barring Angela
Wagner from communi­
cation of any kind with
the other suspects in the
case. Krapenc told the
judge he had no objec­

had in fact advised his
client not to contact the
other suspects “from

All four of the Wagner
family members directly
charged with the mur­

without possibility of
bail. Following Monday’s
brief hearing, Angela
Wagner was returned to
jail but will be back in
court 1:30 p.m. March

South Gallia
slips past
Lady Tomcats
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com

GLOUSTER, Ohio — A perfect end to a terriﬁc
comeback.
The South Gallia girls basketball team trailed
Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division host
Trimble by nine points headed into the ﬁnale of
Monday’s contest at Bill White Gymnasium in
Athens County.
The Lady Rebels, however, fought all the way
back and won the game by a 42-40 tally, with
Amaya Howell hitting a game-winning trifecta on
an assist from Jessie Rutt with less than ﬁve seconds to go.
South Gallia (5-9, 3-5 TVC Hocking) trailed by
a 10-7 tally eight minutes into play, and the Lady
Tomcats (3-10, 2-6) extended their advantage to
22-14 by halftime.
Trimble added one to its edge in the third
quarter, outscoring its guest by a 12-to-11 clip to
make the margin 34-25 with eight minutes to play.
SGHS ended the game with a 17-to-6 run, sealing
the 42-40 victory.
In the win, South Gallia shot 16-of-44 (36.4
percent) from the ﬁeld, including 3-of-9 (33.3
percent) from three-point range. Meanwhile, the
hosts were 18-of-50 (36 percent) from the ﬁeld,
while missing all-12 three-point tries. SGHS was
7-of-12 (58.3 percent) from the free throw line,
where THS was 4-of-11 (36.4 percent).
The Lady Tomcats won the rebounding battle
by a 35-to-32 clip, while committing 19 turnovers,
one fewer than South Gallia. The Lady Rebels
combined for 12 steals, seven assists and one
rejection, while Trimble had team totals of 14
assists, nine steals and six rejections.
Rutt led the Lady Rebels with 20 points, followed by Howell with 10. Christine Grifﬁth
recorded six points to go with team-highs of 10
rebounds and four steals, while Kiley Stapleton,
Makayla Waugh and Faith Poling earned two
points apiece, with Stapleton claiming the team’s
lone rejection. Howell, Stapleton and Rutt came
up with two assists apiece in the setback.
Trimble was led by Briana Orsborne with 12

Lady Eagles soar past Southern
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com

TUPPERS PLAINS,
Ohio — A 28-8 surge
over the middle two quarters ultimately allowed
the Eastern girls basketball team to cruise to a
54-28 victory over visiting Southern on Monday
night in a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division
contest between Meigs
County teams at the
Eagle’s Nest.
The host Lady Eagles
(7-4, 6-1 TVC Hocking)
found themselves in a
quite a dog ﬁght for
roughly 13 minutes as the
Lady Tornadoes (0-12,
0-8) found themselves
staring at an 18-16 deﬁcit
with 2:42 remaining in
the ﬁrst half.
The Green and White,
however, mustered a pair
of a 4-0 runs around a
Southern basket over the
ﬁnal 2:12 of the second
frame, allowing the hosts
to secure their largest
lead of the half at 26-18 as
both squads entered the
break.
The Purple and Gold
were ultimately never
closer as the Eastern
defense forced the guests
into six turnovers and
three missed shots while
making a 10-0 run out of
the intermission, allowing
the Lady Eagles to extend
their cushion out to 36-18
with 4:30 remaining in
the third.
Southern ended its
scoring drought with a
Kayla Evans basket at the

3:48 mark, but the hosts
closed the third canto
with a quick 6-1 spurt to
secure a 42-21 advantage
headed into the ﬁnale.
Phoenix Cleland
trimmed the deﬁcit down
to 15 points (42-27) with
a pair of free throws at
the 4:57 mark, but the
guests were never closer
the rest of the way.
Brielle Newland capped
a 12-1 run over the ﬁnal
4:44 of regulation with
a basket just before the
buzzer sounded, wrapping up the 26-point outcome — the largest lead
of the night.
Southern held a 7-3
lead midway through
the ﬁrst quarter and was
never down by more than
two possessions for all
but six seconds of the
ﬁrst half.
Neither team shot the
ball particularly well in
the ﬁrst half, as Eastern
went 11-of-29 from the
ﬁeld while the guests
were 7-of-23 overall. The
difference, however, came
on the glass, where the
Lady Eagles claimed a
21-11 edge that included
a 9-1 discrepancy on the
offensive boards.
Those extra chances
from point-blank range
proved to be huge later
on in the game. As SHS
coach Alan Crisp noted,
it really ended up being
the difference in the ﬁnal
outcome.
“We had a pretty good
start because we stuck
to the plan of making
them beat us outside, but

Southern freshman Ella Cooper (30) keeps the ball away from
Eastern defender Olivia Barber during the first half of Monday
night’s TVC Hocking girls basketball game in Tuppers Plains, Ohio.

we just didn’t rebound
with them. We gave up
way too many offensive
rebounds under the
bucket,” Crisp said. “We
just couldn’t score in the
second half and it all kind
of went bad from there.
The girls are still battling
and playing hard though,
and I do give them credit
for that.”
Southern committed
11 of the 20 turnovers
between the teams in
the ﬁrst half, but the
third quarter ended up
being the back-breaker
as the hosts forced nine
turnovers without committing a single miscue
themselves.

The end result was a
16-3 charge that inﬂated
the lead out to double
digits while limiting
Southern to just just a
single basket in the third.
The Lady Tornadoes
also made just three ﬁeld
goals and had 16 turnovers after halftime.
After a less than perfect
start, EHS coach Jacob
Parker noted that his
troops did everything
they needed to do to get
out with this victory —
particularly on the defensive side of the ball.
“We came out a little
bit slow, and sometimes

Presidents, commissioners put brakes on CFP expansion talk
SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) —
The College Football Playoff
is not close to expanding.
After a month of chatter
about possible changes to the
four-team playoff, the conference commissioners and university presidents who constitute the playoff brain trust
met Monday at the Fairmont
Hotel in downtown San Jose
and quelled the speculation.
“As far as expanding the
number of teams in the playoff, it’s way too soon — much
too soon — to know if that is

even a possibility,” Mississippi State University President
Mark Keenum, the chairman
of the CFP board of managers, said in a statement.
The playoff is in its ﬁfth
season. No. 1 Alabama and
No. 2 Clemson will play the
national championship game
Monday night at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara.
Expansion talk perked up
last month when Big Ten
Commissioner Jim Delany
told The Athletic he was
ready to begin talking about

an eight-team format after his
conference was left out of the
playoff for a second consecutive season.
Delany was a longtime and
staunch playoff opponent
during the days of the Bowl
Championship Series, so having him and some of the athletic directors in the Big Ten
come out in favor of looking
at expansion caused a stir.
American Athletic Conference Commissioner Mike
Aresco, buoyed by UCF’s
performance the last two sea-

sons, also has begun making a
case for a bigger ﬁeld.
But those statements conﬂicted what other conference
commissioners have said
about expansion. On Monday,
they spoke with one voice.
“I’m not going to say everyone, (but) a consensus is very
pleased with the four-team
format and the success, most
importantly, that we’ve had
over the past ﬁve years with
the system that we have,”
Keenum told reporters.

SANTA CLARA, Calif.
(AP) — With stunning
ease — and a freshman
quarterback — Clemson
toppled college football’s
greatest dynasty again to
become the ﬁrst perfect
playoff champion.
Trevor Lawrence
passed for 347 yards and
three touchdowns and
the second-ranked Tigers
beat No. 1 Alabama
44-16 on Monday night
in the College Football
Playoff national championship game.
In the fourth consecutive playoff meeting
between the Tigers and
Tide, Clemson evened
the series and beat
‘Bama for the national
championship for the
second time in three seasons. Clemson is the ﬁrst
team in the AP poll era,
dating back to 1936, to
ﬁnish 15-0.
“We’re gonna enjoy
this one. We’ve got a
nice spot to put it in our
facility, right next to that
other one,” Clemson
coach Dabo Swinney
said. “We’ve got twins!”
Alabama coach Nick
Saban and the Tide (141) were looking for a

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) —
Dwayne Haskins is NFL bound
after one spectacular season as
Ohio State’s starting quarterback.
The third-year sophomore
who rewrote the school record
book had been expected to enter
the draft and is a projected ﬁrstround pick.
Haskins said on Twitter on
Monday he would forgo his ﬁnal
year of eligibility “after many
thoughts and prayers with family and close friends.” He wrote
that just as it was a boyhood
dream to play for Ohio State, he
also dreamed of being an NFL
quarterback.
His sturdy, 6-foot-3, 220pound frame, quick release and
exceptional accuracy make him a

sixth national championship in 10 years, trying
to add to an already
unprecedented run in
the sport. Instead, Clemson crushed Alabama,
becoming the ﬁrst opponent to beat the Tide
by more than 14 points
since Saban became
coach in 2007.
Swinney’s Tigers
sealed their status as a
superpower, no longer
just 1A to Alabama’s 1.
“We’re 15-0, we beat
the best team ever,
nobody’s taking that
away from us,” Clemson
All-America defensive
tackle Christian Wilkins
said.
Two seasons ago it
was Deshaun Watson
dethroning the Tide with
a last-second touchdown
pass. Clemson’s new star
quarterback didn’t need
the late-game heroics.
The long-haired Lawrence cut though Alabama’s defense with the
help of another fabulous
freshman. Justyn Ross
made a juggling grab, a
one-handed snare and
broke a 74-yard touchdown about midway
through the third quarter

that made it 37-16 and
had Swinney high-stepping down the sidelines.
Ross, who scored two
touchdowns in the semiﬁnal rout of Notre Dame,
had six catches for 153
yards against his homestate team.
Swinney takes a different approach than
Saban, running a more
fun-loving program than
Alabama’s all-business
organization. But the
results have been every
bit as good. And on
Monday night at Levi’s
Stadium, in a championship game played more
than 2,000 miles away
from Clemson’s South
Carolina campus, the
Tigers were way too
much for an Alabama
team that had spent the
season mauling its opposition by an average of
31 points per game.
Alabama’s Tua
Tagovailoa threw two
crucial interceptions in
the ﬁrst half, the ﬁrst
returned 44 yards for a
touchdown by A.J. Terrell to put Clemson up
7-0. The Tide came in
scoring 48 points per
game, but were shut

out over the ﬁnal 44
minutes by an opportunistic Clemson defense
that stiffened in key
spots.
Tagovailoa, the
sophomore who came
off the bench to win the
championship game last
year for the Tide, went
22 for 34 for 295 yards
and two touchdowns.
“Good is not good
enough,” Tagovailoa
said.
The Heisman runnerup was also the secondbest quarterback on the
ﬁeld in the championship game. Lawrence
ﬁnished 20 for 32, but
went 18 for 25 for 277
yards over the ﬁnal
three quarters.
The teenager who
took over as the starter
four games into the season raised the Tigers’
play, giving them an
explosive offense to
match a suffocating
defense that was led by
a star-studded line with
All-Americans Clelin
Ferrell and Wilkins.
“It’s been an awesome
journey,” Lawrence
said. “It’s really unbelievable.”

The announcement came on
a busy day for the Buckeyes.
New coach Ryan Day hired a
pair of new defensive coordinators — one of them from hated
rival Michigan. Greg Mattison,
who spent the past four years
as defensive line coach under
Jim Harbaugh, joined Day’s staff
along with veteran NFL assistant Jeff Haﬂey. Greg Schiano,
the defensive coordinator for the
past three seasons under Urban
Meyer, is out of a job.

The Rose Bowl win over
Washington on Jan. 1 turned
out to be the last game for both
Haskins and Meyer. Haskins was
named MVP after completing 25
of 37 passes for 251 yards and
three touchdowns in the ﬁnale
for Meyer before retirement.
Day, who worked with
Haskins as quarterbacks coach,
likened him to Atlanta Falcons
quarterback Matt Ryan and
former Heisman Trophy winner
Sam Bradford. Day coached both
in the NFL.
“Those are the two guys I’ve
been around that are in that
same category right now —
their anticipation, their accuracy, the way the ball comes off
their hand,” Day said. “I’d compare him to those two guys.”

Rio Grande’s Howell
receives weekly honor

Washington was defensive line coach
on Luke Fickell’s Cincinnati staff in 2017
before jumping to Michigan.

MIDDLETOWN, Ohio - Sophomore
forward Jimi Howell stepped up with 20.0
points and 13.5 rebounds per game in
two victories for No. 20 University of Rio
Grande last week and thus was named
River States Conference Women’s Basket­
ball Player of the Week for Dec. 31-Jan. 6.
The 5-foot-10 native of Barberton, Ohio,
powered the RedStorm to victories over
Brescia (Ky.) and IU Southeast in RSC
action. She posted a double-double in each
game, each one with 20 points. She shot 50
percent for the week (13-for-26).
Howell began the week with 20 points
and 15 rebounds in an 84-67 victory over
Brescia. She made 7 of 10 field goals in
that game. She followed that up with 20
points and 12 boards in a 68-61 win over
IU Southeast.
Rio Grande is 13-4 overall, 4-1 RSC and
will be hosting WVU Tech on Jan. 10.

Hall of Fame to do
sign language tours
CANTON, Ohio (AP) — The Pro Foot­
ball Hall of Fame will begin offering Ameri­
can sign language tours for deaf or hard of
hearing people.
As a part of the hall’s effort to be more
inclusive, an ASL interpreter will be on
hand for tours on the first and third Satur­
day of each month beginning Jan. 19.
“This new programming will allow peo­
ple of differing abilities to fully experience
the Pro Football Hall of Fame and learn
more about the game of football,” said Hall
of Fame Vice President of Museum and
Exhibit Services Saleem Choudhry.
The hour-long “Insider Tours” provide
guests with interesting information behind
the artifacts and exhibits that cannot be
learned otherwise. An ASL interpreter
from TRIAD Deaf Services, Inc., a local
nonprofit offering services to the deaf com­
munity, will accompany the hall’s docents
on the designated tours to interpret for
deaf or hard-of-hearing individuals.

Clemson blowout
draws low TV ratings

Day adds 2nd Michigan
coach to Ohio State staff
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — New Ohio
State coach Ryan Day has hired a second
assistant away from rival Michigan.
The university said Tuesday that Day
hired Michigan linebackers coach A1 Wash­
ington for the same position on the Ohio
State staff. The move comes a day after
Michigan defensive line coach Greg Mattison was added to the staff as co-defensive
coordinator.
Day will part ways with Bill Davis, who
was the linebackers coach under Urban
Meyer last season.
The 34-year-old Washington is a Colum­
bus native whose father played linebacker
for the Buckeyes. Washington and Day
were assistants on the Boston College staff
from 2012 to 2014.

SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) — Clemson’s
blowout victory over Alabama in the
College Football Playoff drew a 14.6
overnight rating for ESPN across its multiple-channel broadcast, the lowest-rated
title game in the 5-year-old postseason
system.
The third championship meeting of
the Tigers and Crimson Tide, and fourth
straight playoff meeting overall, was also
the most lopsided CFP final. The ratings
topped out at 16.2 in the first half when
the Tigers extended their lead to 15
points.
Clemson won 44-16, the largest margin
of victory in a college football champi­
onship game since Alabama beat Notre
Dame by 28 in the 2012 BCS title game.
Last season’s Alabama overtime victory
against Georgia drew a 16.7 overnight
rating.
Overall, the New Year’s Six games,
including the Cotton and Orange bowl
semifinals, averaged a 9.0 overnight rat­
ing.

Bryan Walters | OVP Sports
Junior Zach Loveday is no longer in consideration as Ohio's top prospect in the
basketball Class of 2020 after the 7-foot center enrolled for classes at Huntington
(W.Va.) Prep on Monday. Loveday, a three-year starter with the Blue Devils, was on pace
to reach the 1,000-point plateau this winter before the bombshell announcement came
midday Monday. Officials within the Gallia Academy athletic department confirmed that
Loveday - a four-star recruit with offers from schools such as Ohio State, Louisville and
Florida - had indeed withdrawn from GAHS and was enrolled at Huntington Prep on
Monday. Loveday will be immediately eligible to play with the Irish.

Browns interview Kitchens
CLEVELAND (AP) — Freddie
Kitchens got his formal, sit-down
interview with the Browns. He
aced the on-field one.
Kitchens, who in eight weeks
rose from unknown assistant to
hot coaching commodity, became
the seventh candidate to inter­

view for Cleveland’s juicy job
on Monday. Kitchens met with
members of the club’s search com­
mittee led by general manager
John Dorsey and including owner
Jimmy Haslam, who were already
impressed by what the 44-year-old
did on an interim basis.
