POMEROY — Meigs County
Commissioners took final steps
Thursday toward securing funding
for the state’s community housing
impact and preservation program
in the amount of $400,000

Denise Alkire, grants administrator who handles the application process, met with the
commissioners, who passed a
resolution to proceed with the
project application that calls
for funding for two private
owner rehabilitation projects at
$69,000; three down payment/

rehab projects for $141,000; one
Habitat for Humanity Project for
$22,000; 10 owner home repair
projects for $120,000 and $5,000
for completing the fair housing
requirements. The grant will also
include $28,000 for administration services. The two required
public hearings on the project

have already be held.
For the application process to
move forward, Meigs County,
which received a CHIP grant
in 2012, will be rated on the requirements of need, capacity,
performance and impact.

POMEROY — Meigs County is one of eight southeastern
Ohio counties that Buckeye Hills-Hocking Valley Regional
Development District has selected to assist in securing
project financing through the new Community Investment
Grants Program funded by the Ohio Governor’s Office.
The other counties are Athens, Hocking, Monroe, Morgan, Noble, Perry and Washington.
Applications are now being accepted for funding on projects such as repair and improvement to public buildings
and equipment, or emergency preparedness and response.
Many municipalities in the region are operating with inadequate and outmoded buildings, facilities and equipment
necessary to provide essential governmental services. There
is a need to improve the conditions of these facilities and to
upgrade equipment to provide adequate services to the citizens of the region in an efficient and cost effective manner.
In addition, items related to emergency preparedness
and response will be eligible for this funding.
According to BHHVRDD,qualifying state and local
public units of government (counties, cities, villages and
townships) may apply for the competitive grants programs. Projects must serve residents in one or more of
the region’s eight counties.
Grants are available for reimbursement only and there
is a minimum 10 percent cash match required. The program includes minimum grants of $5,000 and maximum
grants of $10,000.

$93,912 — the same as last
year. He said that the only
difference is that for fiscal
year 2005 there is no fund
balance carry over as has
been the case in the past.
The state reimbursement rate will be 40 percent in fiscal year 2015,
so the county contract
amount is 60 percent of
the budget or $56,348, a
0.8 percent increase over
the 2014 contract. Meigs
County Prosecutor Colleen

Williams was present at the
meeting for input and clarification on the contract
specifications. A proposed
budget and agreement to
participate in the multicounty branch of the office
of the Ohio Public Defender was left for review
by the commissioners. It
details services, compensation and restrictions, and
gives the requirements for
determining indigency client eligibility. The term of
the contract is from July 1,

2014 to June 30, 2015.
During the meeting, the
commissioners executed
a contract with the State
Highway Department for a
cooperative highway project. They also approved
two social service workers
recommended by Chris
Shank, director of the Department of Jobs and Family Services.
Attending were all three
commissioners — president Mike Bartrum, Tim
Ihle and Randy Smith.

Murray Energy sues Labor Dept over coal dust rule

Ohio Libertarians appeal
to US Supreme Court
COLUMBUS,
Ohio
(AP) — The Libertarian
Party of Ohio immediately
appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday
after a lower court denied
its attempt to get a gubernatorial candidate on
Tuesday’s primary ballot.
Their candidate, Charlie Earl, was disqualified
by Secretary of State Jon
Husted after his nominating petitions were challenged. Husted agreed
with a hearing officer who
found two Earl petitioners
failed to properly disclose
their employers.
Libertarians sought to
reinstate Earl’s ballot status, arguing that Husted’s
ruling violated petition
circulators’ First Amendment rights and conflicted
with previous state rulings
allowing them to submit
signatures without declaring an employer.
With five days until
the election, the 6th U.S.
Circuit Court of Appeals
in Cincinnati said Thursday the party was too unlikely to succeed in a First
Amendment challenge to
Husted’s ruling to proceed.
The three-judge panel
acknowledged the decision could present “severe
and irreparable harm” on
the party and likely undermine its status as a ballotqualified party in the state.
“We note that the LPO
has struggled to become
and remain a ballot-qualified party in Ohio, and we
acknowledge that this decision entails that their efforts must continue still,”
the opinion said. “But we
also note that we decide
one case at a time, on the
record before us. In so doing, we preserve the First
Amendment’s
primary
place in our democracy
over the long run.”
Husted’s office praised
the ruling.
“Today’s ruling is more
validation that we are following the law and properly administering elections
in Ohio,” spokesman Matt
McClellan said.

A hunger for more
As far as pastimes go, “drawing lines” probably doesn’t rank
on many people’s “to do” list.
In fact, “drawing lines,” as
in establishing boundaries for
ourselves and for our children,
seems to have a connotation of
severity that many folks feel too
narrow-minded and/or judgmental.
On the other hand, I suggest
that a failure to learn how to
appropriately establish boundaries by which we stand in our
habits, activities and attitudes is
essentially the equivalent of relational suicide in our homes and
families. Without such wisely
appointed boundaries, relationships, no matter how intimate,
will suffer the devastation of disappointment and broken trust,
as individuals either “use” others
or are “used” by others in patterns of presumption.
Without setting boundaries for
ourselves as a people, we are also
committing a kind of societal
homicide in which our lack of respect for God and other people
escalates “reactive measures” as
we are forced to legislate rules
and laws which aren’t necessary
when people are simply committed to doing things God’s way
anyway.

coveting the things of other people were very specific boundaries
that were relevant then and are
relevant now; even today they
should serve as boundaries for
Christians.
Frankly, I don’t think we merely fudge on these Ten Commandments; we blatantly defy them.
It’s bad enough for folks to live
life morally without an anchor
if they’ve not had opportunity
to learn that there is an anchor
on which they may depend. But
what should be especially troubling — and indeed heartbreaking — to us as Christians today
is that we don’t seem to see the
relevance of God’s Law for our
own lives.
Some say, “But we don’t live
according to the Law, but by
grace.” And they’re quite right.
But what escapes them is that
the essence of God in the New
Testament is consistent with His
essence in the Old. And while we
do truly live by the grace of God
(by which we mean “unmerited
favor”), those Ten Commandments are essential moral codes
for navigating life today.
One of the greatest things that
God has done for humanity is
the giving of boundaries for our
lives. One of the greatest things
that you and I can do as His
children is to observe them and
yield to His loving authority, remembering that the reason Jesus

And one of the greatest things

Let us stop and catch our

a moment before we get sucked
into all the hyperactivity of
spring and summer. Let us think
about how we need boundaries
for life (yes … even grownups
need boundaries).
We need boundaries in our
relationships. We need boundaries in our spending. We need
boundaries for our time and our
pursuits. We need boundaries for
our families. And we need boundaries spiritually speaking so that
we may remember why we were
put here in the first place … to
love God with all that we are.

Report: Four in
five US high school
students graduate
By Kimberly Hefling
Associated Press

WASHINGTON — U.S. public high schools have reached
a milestone, an 80 percent graduation rate. Yet that still
means 1 of every 5 students walks away without a diploma.
Citing the progress, researchers are projecting a 90 percent national graduation rate by 2020.
Their report, based on Education Department statistics
from 2012, was presented Monday at the Building a GradNation Summit.
The growth has been spurred by such factors as a
greater awareness of the dropout problem and efforts by
districts, states and the federal government to include
graduation rates in accountability measures. Among the
initiatives are closing “dropout factory” schools.
In addition, schools are taking aggressive action, such
as hiring intervention specialists who work with students
one on one, to keep teenagers in class, researchers said.
Growth in rates among African-American and Hispanic
students helped fuel the gains. Most of the growth has occurred since 2006 after decades of stagnation.
“At a moment when everything seems so broken and
seems so unfixable … this story tells you something completely different,” said John Gomperts, president of America’s Promise Alliance, which was founded by former Secretary of State Colin Powell and helped produce the report.
Education Secretary Arne Duncan said at the summit that
the country owes a debt of gratitude to teachers, students
and families whose hard work helped the country reach the
80 percent mark, but he said those students who drop out
have a “bleak” future and shouldn’t be forgotten. His department’s statistics arm also on Monday released a report that
highlighted the growth trend in graduation rates.
“Even as we celebrate we all know we have to push beyond that 80 percent,” Duncan said.
The rate of 80 percent is based on federal statistics primarily using a calculation by which the number of graduates in a given is year divided by the number of students
who enrolled four years earlier. Adjustments are made for
transfer students.

Search the Scripture
When God creates a thing, He
designs it so that it works to fulfill the purpose He has ordained
for it. Once understood, the designs of God contain little superfluous: everything has a function.
This is true in matters physical
and it is true in matters spiritual.
There is a pattern to those things
God makes.
In the spiritual realm, the designs of God should be cleaved
to by the faithful, understanding
that the form of God’s design
speaks to the function of that
design. Thus Paul told Timothy,
“Hold fast the pattern of sound
words which you have heard
from me, in faith and love which
are in Christ Jesus.” (2 Timothy
1:13) When we change God’s design, we mess with the function
of God’s creation, changing the
purpose and pattern.
We cannot do this in matters
spiritual and remain pleasing
to God. The Holy Spirit has
taught us, “Everyone who goes
on ahead and does not abide in
the teaching of Christ, does not
have God. Whoever abides in the
teaching has both the Father and
the Son.” (2 John 9)
We have made the case in our

previous article that the church
was planned by God, designed
by God, and built by God in
Christ (cf. Matthew 16:18). It is
important that we behave ourselves properly in God’s house
(cf. 1 Timothy 3:15) and that we
do not harm the Lord’s church in
any way (cf. 1 Corinthians 3:17).
God has a plan for His church
and He expects that plan to be
carried out by His people.
One aspect of the scriptural
design of the church are the roles
of those men who serve in the
church as officers. The church,
as designed, has only one head:
Christ, for we read, “And he is
the head of the body, the church.
He is the beginning, the firstborn
from the dead, that in everything
he might be preeminent.” (Colossians 1:18)
Nevertheless, while Christ
is in heaven, He has delegated
certain responsibilities to men
as regards directing and guiding His church. The apostle Paul
writes and says of this, “He who
descended is the one who also
ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.
And he gave the apostles, the
prophets, the evangelists, the

shepherds and teachers, to equip
the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of
Christ.” (Ephesians 4:10-12)
There are four “offices” identified by Paul in this passage to the
Ephesians. The first, the apostles, were men hand chosen by
Christ to witness to His resurrection. The apostles, having died,
were not replaced by Christ.
The second, the prophets, included any man gifted with the
miraculous gift (given through the
laying on of the apostles hands; cf.
Acts 8:17) of inspiration. They too
have ceased, being replaced by the
completed word of God (cf. 1 Corinthians 13:8-10).
That leaves the third and the
fourth offices remaining today:
the evangelists and the shepherd-teachers of the church. The
evangelists are any who proclaim
the word of God in truth, and
the shepherds, also called “elders” and “overseers” (cf. Acts
20:17, 28; 1 Timothy 3:1, Titus
1:5) also have a duty to teach the
church, feeding the flock of God.
While there is much that could
be said about these church leaders,
let us make two observations.
Firstly, we note that without

exception, these four offices, the
two remaining and the two left
empty, all fulfill a similar function: teaching people and preaching the word and will of God to
men, so as to convict the lost and
edify the saved. This singularity
of purpose within the leaders of
the church should speak to us
concerning the mission of the
church, as given by Christ.
“And Jesus came and said to
them, ‘All authority in heaven
and on earth has been given to
me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing
them in the name of the Father
and of the Son and of the Holy
Spirit, teaching them to observe
all that I have commanded you.
And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.’”
(Matthew 28:18-20)
A congregation which is not
focused on preaching the word,
making disciples and saving
souls is not fulfilling its purpose
as the Lord’s church.
The second thing we might
note is what is not given to the
church by the Lord. We don’t see
family-life ministers, youth ministers, or any other segregatedgroup minister. We do not read

of worship-coordinators, dramadirecters or any of a multitude of
other man-made offices, many no
doubt created by men with good
intentions, but not authorized by
Christ. Perhaps this is because
Christ wants a certain focus and
these offices serve to change the
focus of the church.
We also do not see, in the offices created by Christ, any avenue for the alteration of church
doctrine. Christ retains sole
authority over such matters to
himself. Which means that when
men gather together to vote on
the direction and doctrine of
their church, they are showing
themselves to be men who have
eschewed Christ as their head
and authority.
If we are to be the church
Christ built, then we must adhere to the leadership Christ
provides. Man-made leaderships
and offices belong only in manmade churches; not in the divine
body of Christ.
If you are interested in learning more about God’s plan for
the church, we invite you to
study and worship with us at
the church of Christ, 234 Chapel
Drive, Gallipolis.

Will Manziel become
Johnny Cleveland?
BEREA, Ohio (AP) —
As he discussed the possibility of quarterback Johnny Manziel being picked by
Cleveland in the upcoming
draft, Browns linebacker
Quentin Groves made a
small sign of the cross.
A prayer that he’s coming? A plea that he stays
away?
Groves’ intentions with
his gesture weren’t clear.
Like just about everything around Johnny Football, there’s no definite answer.
The most polarizing
player to enter the NFL
in a while, Manziel, is being closely linked to the
Browns, who own the No. 4
overall pick in next week’s
draft and have been seeking a franchise quarterback
for more than a decade.
Cleveland’s inability to
land a QB either in the
draft or via free agency or
blind luck may be the single
biggest reason the Browns
have only made the playoffs
once since 1999 and seem
to change coaches every
year.
There are those who believe Manziel can save the
Browns. Others feel the
Texas A&amp;M quarterback’s
dazzling skills — and size
— won’t translate to the
pro game.
He’s dynamic.
He’s too small.
He’s a game-changer.
He’s self-absorbed.
He’s a hard worker.
He’s a head case.
He’s charismatic.
Everyone has an opinion
on Manziel, the 2012 Heisman Trophy winner who
has been projected as being
picked anywhere from the
top 5 to the bottom of the
first round.
“If Johnny Manziel came

through, if he beats out the
other quarterbacks that are
here, it’s all good,” Browns
Pro Bowl cornerback Joe
Haden said. “I like Johnny
Manziel. I like him a whole
lot.”
Haden’s
not
alone.
Sports radio talk shows
here are crammed with
callers screaming for the
Browns to choose Manziel,
one of several QBs in this
year’s class expected to go
in the early rounds.
Cleveland hasn’t used a
pick higher than No. 22 on
a quarterback since taking
Tim Couch first overall 15
years ago.
The Browns have done
their homework on Manziel. The team recently
worked him out privately in
College Station, Texas, and
brought him to Cleveland
to visit their training facility and headquarters.
As they consider taking him, Browns general
manager Ray Farmer and
owner Jimmy Haslam
wanted to get to better
know Manziel, who served
a suspension last season
for violating an NCAA rule
involving signing autographs, as a person.
They’ve seen him on
film. Nothing beats the real
thing.
“I don’t think I have
any reservations with who
Johnny is,” Farmer said.
“He’s a good young man.
I think the interesting part
about Johnny is that, much
like a lot of us, you don’t get
a handbook for how to operate in certain instances.
“When you go from being a kid from Tyler, Texas,
to being Johnny Football
and winning the Heisman
Trophy really quickly, they

Maryland, Virginia to meet as nonconference foes
BRISTOL, Conn. (AP) — Maryland and Virginia will renew their
basketball rivalry — now as nonconference foes.
The Terrapins will host the Cavaliers in the 16th annual ACC/Big Ten
Challenge in December. It’s the first
time Maryland will be representing
the Big Ten after leaving the Atlantic
Coast Conference, for which it went
10-5 in the event. The Terps beat
Virginia in overtime in their final
regular-season ACC game in March.
Fellow Big Ten newcomer Rutgers
will play at Clemson, while ACC ad-

dition Louisville will host Ohio State.
The marquee matchups announced
by ESPN on Thursday include Duke
at Wisconsin, Syracuse at Michigan,
Iowa at North Carolina and Michigan
State at Notre Dame.
The Wolverines and Orange met in
the 2013 NCAA semifinals, a Michigan win. The Spartans and Fighting
Irish haven’t played since the 1979
regional finals, when Magic Johnson
led Michigan State to a national title.
With the expansion of the two conferences, the event is increasing from
12 to 14 games.

The Rutgers-Clemson game is Dec.
1, when Nebraska also faces Florida
State. Along with Syracuse-Michigan
and Ohio State-Louisville, Pittsburgh is
at Indiana, N.C. State at Purdue, Illinois
at Miami, and Minnesota at Wake Forest on Dec. 2. The Dec. 3 matchups are
Duke-Wisconsin, Michigan State-Notre
Dame, Iowa-North Carolina, VirginiaMaryland, Georgia Tech-Northwestern
and Virginia Tech-Penn State.
Boston College is the only ACC
school that won’t participate, as the
conference has one more member
than the Big Ten.

Young was given a tryout this week at
Browns’ three-day minicamp and showed
enough to earn a deal. The team also
signed quarterback Tyler Thigpen.
The 30-year-old Young made two Pro
Bowls during his five seasons with Tennessee, which drafted him with the No. 3
overall pick in 2006.
Young last played for Philadelphia and
is 31-19 as an NFL starter. He spent parts
of the past two preseasons with Buffalo
and Green Bay. The 6-foot-5, 229-pounder
will move into a backup role behind Brian
Hoyer, who is expected to begin next season as Cleveland’s starter.
The Browns are likely to use a high
draft pick on a quarterback next week.
Thigpen started 11 games for Kansas
City in 2008.
Reds put lefty starter
Tony Cingrani on DL
CINCINNATI (AP) — The Reds have
put left-handed starter Tony Cingrani on
the 15-day disabled list because of soreness in his pitching shoulder.
They called up right-handed reliever

Curtis Partch on Thursday for the start of
a four-game series against the Milwaukee
Brewers. Manager Bryan Price says the
Reds won’t need another starter because
of their days off in the next two weeks.
Cingrani is 2-2 with a 3.34 ERA in six
starts. He gave up three runs in four innings of a 9-4 loss to the Cubs on Wednesday night, with his velocity dropping.
Partch opened the season with the Reds
and didn’t allow a run in 4 1-3 innings. He
retired 13 of the 17 batters he faced.
3 found not guilty in
stabbing of Steelers lineman
PITTSBURGH (AP) — A jury has
found three men not guilty in connection
with the stabbing and attempted carjacking of Pittsburgh Steelers lineman Mike
Adams last year.
The Allegheny County jury on Wednesday returned not guilty verdicts on all
charges against Dquay Means and Michael Paranay. Jerrell Whitlock was found
not guilty of the most serious offenses but
convicted of a charge of flight to avoid apprehension.
Prosecutors argued that Adams was
stabbed during an attempted carjacking
in June, but defense attorneys said a fight
began after Adams knocked food out of
Paranay’s hands.

Adams, a 6-foot-7, 325-pound offensive
lineman, was hospitalized for four days.
New Hall of Famers to
announce teams’ draft picks
NEW YORK (AP) — New Hall of Famers Andre Reed, Derrick Brooks, Aeneas
Williams, Walter Jones and Claude Humphrey are among the retired players who
will announce their former teams’ secondround draft picks next week.
The list announced by the league Thursday includes six other Hall of Famers: the
Bears’ Mike Singletary, Giants’ Harry
Carson, Packers’ James Lofton, Raiders’
Willie Brown, Dolphins’ Larry Little and
Chiefs’ Curley Culp. Kansas City doesn’t
have a second-round selection, so Culp
will handle its third-rounder.
The Bills’ Reed, Buccaneers’ Brooks,
Cardinals’ Williams, Seahawks’ Jones and
Falcons’ Humphrey will be inducted into
the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Aug. 1.
This is the fourth year the NFL has had
ex-players announce their old clubs’ picks.
The second and third rounds are May 9 at
Radio City Music Hall.
The other players are Morten Andersen (Saints), Dennis Brown (49ers), Joey
Browner (Vikings), Mark Carrier (Panthers), Kevin Carter (Rams), Kevin Dyson (Titans), London Fletcher (Redskins),

Terry Hanratty (Steelers), Marvin Harrison (Colts), Michael McCrary (Ravens),
Willie McGinest (Patriots), Brad Meester
(Jaguars), Eric Metcalf (Browns), Gene
Mingo (Broncos), Herman Moore (Lions), Dat Nguyen (Cowboys), Chad Pennington (Jets), Chester Pitts (Texans),
Mike Quick (Eagles), Ken Riley (Bengals)
and Jamal Williams (Chargers).
MLB gains tool to check
Dominican baseball players
SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic (AP) — Major League Baseball is getting
a new tool to verify the ages and identities
of players from the Dominican Republic.
More than 10 percent of the players in
the majors are Dominican. There have
been a few known cases in which players
signed contracts after using fake documents that gave wrong names and ages.
The president of the Dominican Central
Electoral Commission says league officials will now be able to access its national
database of names and biometric data. Roberto Rosario says that should help reduce
fraud among those aspiring to play professional baseball in the U.S.
Dominican authorities are also pledging to investigate and prosecute document
fraud involving players as part of an agreement signed with league officials Thursday.

Jump from college to
NFL fraught with risk

Adam Cairns | Columbus Dispatch | MCT

The Columbus Blue Jackets’ Ryan Johansen (19) celebrates scoring a goal with teammate Artem Anisimov (42)
against the Pittsburgh Penguins during the second period of Game 4 of an Eastern Conference quarterfinal at Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio, on April 23.

Richards says Blue Jackets must get faster
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) —
General manager Jarmo Kekalainen
was discussing the closeness of the
Columbus Blue Jackets this season.
Then he caught himself.
“I try to be careful with the
word ‘family,’ because you don’t
trade family members,” he said,
smiling.
No, Kekalainen isn’t preparing
to tear up the Blue Jackets and rebuild, as has been the case several
times in the team’s spotty, 13-season history. Instead, he’s hoping
to build on the franchise’s best
season ever.
The Blue Jackets set team records in the regular season for
wins (43), points (93), road wins
(21) and goals scored 231. After
capturing a wild-card spot for
their second trip to the playoffs,
the club gave the superstar-laden
Pittsburgh Penguins all they
could handle before bowing out
in six close games of their firstround series.
Clearly, there’s a feeling of optimism and accomplishment with
the Blue Jackets for a change.
Still, that doesn’t mean there’s
not an arena full of room for improvement.
“There’s a lot to be excited
about and be positive about,”
head coach Todd Richards said.
“But in the end, we finished 15th
out of 30 teams. It is moving up,
that’s what we want to do, but it’s
still just middle-of-the-road. It’s
mediocre.”
Richards, Kekalainen and director of hockey operations John Da-

vidson and their staffs met with
the Blue Jackets players one-onone on Thursday, laying out what
is expected of them before the
team reconvenes again in camp.
Kekalainen lavished praise
on the club’s youngsters such as
21-year-old center Ryan Johansen
(33 goals, 30 assists), 20-year-old
center Boone Jenner (16 goals, 13
assists) and 20-year-old defenseman Ryan Murray (21 points, a
+4 plus/minus rating).
Instead of a team driven by
its veterans, Kekalainen said he
thinks the younger guys will be
pushing the older ones.
“They’re going to earn even
bigger roles on the team,” he said.
“The older guys might think, ‘OK,
I don’t have a lot of room for improvement.’ Then they watch
these young guys get bigger,
stronger and faster next to them.
And they’re going to go, ‘What is
he doing? What can I do to make
sure I stay up with this guy?’”
Richards said the key was to
not rest on one relatively successful season.
“We want to keep pushing, keep
getting better,” he said. “(This
season was) a great step. But we
can’t be satisfied, we can’t stop
and take a breath and say that
we’re here or we’ve arrived, because there’s still a lot more ahead
of us.”
It’s highly unlikely that there
will be very much turnover on
the roster. There are only six unrestricted free agents — forwards
Derek MacKenzie, Blake Comeau

and Jack Skille, defensemen Nikita Nikitin and Nick Shultz and
backup goalie Curtis McElhinney.
The Blue Jackets will undoubtedly
try to re-sign the three forwards.
The No. 1 issue in the offseason might be signing restricted
free agent Johansen, who made
$810,000 last year and is due a
new pact. The club will, without
question, also try to negotiate
new deals with young defensemen
David Savard and Dalton Prout,
also entering the final years of
their contracts.
Kekalainen won’t tamper with
the blue-collar team’s identity.
“We have to be careful. We want
to keep our good chemistry,” he
said. “We always want to bring in
the right kind of people, not only
as hockey players but as teammates and human beings. It’s going to be an important part of our
scouting manual.”
Richards said it became clear
to him as the playoff series progressed that the Penguins were
getting quicker as they won
Games 5 and 6 to advance. He’d
like to see his team get faster.
“It’s not that we’re going to
change everything,” he said.
“Pittsburgh elevated their play.
Even in Games 5 and 6 we were
there with them. But when they
cranked it up, there were points of
the games where they were playing faster than we were.”
The Blue Jackets drew capacity crowds in the playoffs. They
seemed to catch the focus of the
entire city and state.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Greg Robinson decided to
leave college for all the usual reasons.
He played for a national championship at Auburn, is
generally regarded as a top-five pick and wants to help his
family financially. For the 6-foot-5, 332-pound offensive
tackle, the decision to give up his final two seasons of college eligibility made sense.
For some of the other 101 early entrants in this year’s
draft, whether they’re ready or not, it’s a choice fraught
with risk.
“I can guarantee you 30 of them (underclassmen) will
not make a roster and if you’re lucky enough to end up
on a practice squad, they won’t get credit for the season
and your development as a player is going to be arrested,”
longtime NFL executive and current ESPN analyst Bill
Polian said. “Some won’t even make the roster or a practice squad and then they won’t have any college eligibility
left, and in many cases they won’t have a degree.”
The current crop of early entrants includes many
players fans are counting on to become franchise cornerstones: Blake Bortles, Teddy Bridgewater, Jadeveon
Clowney, Johnny Manziel and Sammy Watkins. All come
with questions, some about their maturity.
The list is also rife with smaller-school stars such as
Willie Snead, Brett Smith and Pierre Warren, who could
go anywhere or not at all on draft weekend.
This was not the landscape the NFL envisioned when
it opened the door to players who had been out of high
school for at least three years.
From the inaugural underclassmen class of 1995
through 2010, the list of non-seniors declaring for the
draft remained essentially steady, with 31 to 54 declaring
each year. The number topped 50 just six times during
that span.
Over the last four years, when the new collective bargaining agreement and rookie wage scale went into effect,
things have changed dramatically. A record-breaking 56
underclassmen declared for the draft in 2011. A year later,
it was 65. Last year, it was 73 and now it has jumped to 98,
plus four players who have graduated but have eligibility
remaining — enough to fill more than three full rounds.
Those who work closely with college football players
insist it’s no coincidence.
Like NBA draft prospects, football players are increasingly being advised to make the jump sooner so they get
that second, richer contract at an earlier age.
“If you’re a good player, even second- and third-round
draft choices are good football players. You’ve got to get
through four years before you get to free agency and three
years before you start to talk about a contract extension,”
agent Tom Condon said, noting he routinely urges players
to think long and hard about staying in school. “So I think
that is a motivating factor.”
Because the average NFL playing career lasts less than
four years, many players never get that second contract —
a fact many of them never consider.
Indiana University coach Kevin Wilson makes sure
his players get that information. While Wilson has
one underclassman in this year’s draft, receiver Cody
Latimer, he worked alongside a large group of young
college stars at Oklahoma who found themselves debating whether to stay or go, including Sam Bradford
and Adrian Peterson.
Wilson also wants his players to know something else.
“It’s mathematically proven that more college graduates
make it (in the NFL) and more college graduates are the
most likely to get the second contract,” he said.
What confounds Polian is why players tend to ignore
evaluations of the NFL’s draft advisory board, which he
helped create in the mid-1990s. While Polian acknowledges it’s wise for those with first-round grades to leave
school, and a tougher call for those getting second or
third-round grades, he believes everyone with a grade
lower than the third round should go back to school.
Wilson acknowledged that he’s found the board to be
remarkably accurate.
But it’s not just agents or family members pushing players to leave early. Players honestly believe they can defy
the odds.

Playoff panel weekly Top 25 starting Oct. 28
IRVING, Texas (AP) — The
BCS standings are out. The College Football Playoff selection
committee Top 25 is in.
Starting Oct. 28, the 13-member panel given the task of picking the schools for the new fourteam playoff will release weekly
rankings.
Voting for the newest college football poll will be done
using the same procedure and
recusal policy used by the committee that chooses the 68-team
field for NCAA men’s basketball
tournament. The voting will be
broken down into tiers, with the
panel first grouping teams and
then coming to a consensus on
how they should be ordered with
numerous votes.
A committee member who is
currently employed or compensated by a school, or who has
an immediate family member at
a school, will not be allowed to
vote for that school.
The committee, which includes five current athletic directors, will meet in person for a
day every week and their rankings will be released on Tuesday

nights on ESPN.
“The concept will be, if the
season ended today, these will be
the rankings,” College Football
Playoff executive director Bill
Hancock said Wednesday.
Hancock and the FBS commissioners have been meeting at the
Four Seasons Resort in north Texas this week, the site of the first
College Football Playoff championship game at AT&amp;T Stadium,
to hammer out the last details of
the new postseason system.
The commissioners had already decided the selection
committee would produce some
rankings during the season, but
had not determined when they
would start or how often the poll
would come out.
Arkansas athletic director Jeff
Long, the selection committee
chairman, said the idea to release rankings weekly came from
the panel.
“We felt we wouldn’t be meeting our responsibility,” Long
said. “Once we made a ranking,
we felt then we needed to make
them weekly. That’s what the
fans have become accustomed

to, and we felt it would leave a
void in college football without a
ranking for several weeks.”
Polls and rankings have always
played a role in determining the
champion of college football —
and been a source of much controversy and debate.
“That debate that goes on
among fans bases and groups is
healthy for the game of football,”
Long said. “Early on there was
some talk that we would go into
a room at the end of the season
and come out with a top four, but
that didn’t last long.”
The Associated Press media
poll started in 1936. The coaches’ poll began in 1950.
The Bowl Championship Series used standings determined
by combining polls, computer
ratings and other variables to
pick the teams that played for
the national title for the past 16
years.
Like the BCS standings, but
unlike the AP poll and coaches’
poll, the selection committee
rankings will start during the
season — though the first one
will come out a week later than

the BCS usually did.
The voting procedure also will
be drastically different than the
ones used by the AP and USA
Today coaches’ polls. With those
rankings, each voter submits a
top 25 and a simple point system
is used to determine the final
order. Twenty-five points goes
to a team with a first-place vote,
down to one point for 25th place.
The selection committee’s
rankings will use a more nuanced
process with the goal of coming
up with a unified consensus.
The committee will take numerous votes, grouping teams six at
a time and ordering them. All
votes are done by secret ballot.
As for the recusal policy, the
commissioners and committee
decided to ignore the past.
“We just boiled it down to
where we felt this group was fit
to its high integrity and would
differentiate from those past relationships,” Long said.
The 13-member selection committee includes Southern California AD Pat Haden, Clemson AD
Dan Radakovich, Wisconsin AD
Barry Alvarez and West Virginia

AD Oliver Luck. Those four and
Long, will be allowed to include
their team in the first step of the
voting process, listing 25 teams
in no particular order to be considered for the rankings. They
will not be allowed to vote for
their teams when the ranking
process starts.
Former longtime Nebraska
coach Tom Osborne could vote
for Nebraska as long as he is
no longer still on the payroll,
though the committee will have
the option to add other recusals
if “special circumstances arise.”
Also on the committee will
be Tyrone Willingham, who
was head coach at Notre Dame,
Washington and Stanford; former
Mississippi quarterback Archie
Manning; and former Big East
Commissioner Mike Tranghese.
The rest of the committee is:
Lt. Gen. Michael Gould, the former superintendent of Air Force;
Tom Jernstedt, a former longtime NCAA executive; former
USA Today sports writer Steve
Wieberg; and former Secretary
of State Condoleezza Rice, who
is now a professor at Stanford.

Internet giants
eye cheerleader’s
defamation suit
CINCINNATI (AP) — An appeals court heard arguments Thursday over whether a gossip website should
have been immune from a defamation lawsuit brought by a
former Cincinnati Bengals cheerleader, a case that Internet
giants such as Google and Facebook are watching closely.
Nik Richie, owner of The Dirty, based in Scottsdale,
Arizona, should have been granted immunity in the case
under a 1996 federal law that provides broad immunity to
websites, his attorney argued to a three-judge panel of the
6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati.
Former Bengals cheerleader Sarah Jones, also a former
high school teacher in northern Kentucky, sued Richie in
December 2012 over posts about her and her ex-husband’s
sexual history. Jones, 29, said the posts were untrue and
caused mental anguish and embarrassment.
In July, after federal Judge William Bertelsman rejected
arguments that Richie should be granted immunity, jurors
found that the posts about Jones were substantially false
and that Richie had acted with malice or reckless disregard by publishing them. They awarded Jones $338,000.
The posts about Jones were unrelated to a criminal
case that emerged against her in March 2012 in which she
was accused of having sex with a teenage former student.
Jones later pleaded guilty to sexual misconduct and custodial interference as part of a plea deal that allowed her
to avoid jail time but prohibited her from teaching again.
Jones and the student, then 17, say they’re engaged to
be married.
Richie, 35, is asking the 6th Circuit to find that Bertelsman should never have allowed Jones’ lawsuit against
him, which would nullify the verdict. The court could rule
at any time.
In November, some of the Internet’s heaviest hitters
said that if Bertelsman’s decision is upheld, the case has
the potential to “significantly chill online speech.”
“If websites are subject to liability for failing to remove
third-party content whenever someone objects, they will be
subject to the ‘heckler’s veto,’ giving anyone who complains
unfettered power to censor speech,” according to briefs filed
Nov. 19 by lawyers for Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Twitter,
Amazon, Gawker and BuzzFeed, among others.
After Thursday’s arguments, Richie’s attorney reiterated the magnitude of the case.
“If Judge Bertelsman’s ruling stands, the Internet will
have a nuclear meltdown,” Arizona attorney David Gingras said. “It’ll change the rules across the board for everyone. … Mark Zuckerberg could be dragged into court
for what users post on Facebook.”
Thursday’s arguments centered on the federal Communications Decency Act, passed in 1996 to give websites immunity from liability for content posted by users.
Judges and courts across the country have upheld the law
in hundreds of cases, including other lawsuits involving
Richie’s website.

Lawrence K. Ho | Los Angeles Times | MCT

Los Angeles Lakers head coach Mike D’Antoni voices his frustrations in the second half against the Utah Jazz at
Staples Center in Los Angeles on Tuesday, Feb. 11.

Lakers coach Mike D’Antoni resigns
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Los Angeles Lakers coach Mike D’Antoni
resigned Wednesday after less than
two seasons on the job.
Team spokesman John Black
confirmed D’Antoni’s resignation,
ending the brief tenure of the Lakers’ fourth head coach in less than
three years.
D’Antoni went 67-87 after taking
over the Lakers early in the 2012-13
season. He replaced the fired Mike
Brown, who lasted just 71 games
after replacing 11-time NBA champion coach Phil Jackson in 2011.
The injury-plagued Lakers were
27-55 this season, their worst campaign in more than 50 years and the
second-worst winning percentage
in franchise history.
With Kobe Bryant, Steve Nash
and Pau Gasol sitting out large
chunks of the season while the Lakers lost an NBA-worst 319 mangames to injuries, the 16-time NBA
champion franchise missed the
playoffs for the first time in nine

seasons and only the third time in
38 years.
“Given the circumstances, I don’t
know that anybody could have
done a better job than Mike did
the past two seasons,” Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak said.
“On behalf of the Lakers, we thank
Mike for the work ethic, professionalism and positive attitude that he
brought to the team every day. We
wish him the best of luck.”
The 62-year-old D’Antoni had
one year left on his contract, but
wanted the Lakers to pick up his
option year for 2015-16 to have
any chance of success. The Lakers apparently refused, leading to
D’Antoni’s resignation.
D’Antoni walked away from a $4
million payday for next season, although he may receive a portion of
that money as severance.
A phone message left for D’Antoni
wasn’t immediately returned.
Despite the Lakers’ injuries on a
roster consisting mostly of players

Manziel

on one-year contracts, Los Angeles
fans largely directed their anger
during a rare down season toward
D’Antoni. Lakers great Magic Johnson, who was sharply critical of
D’Antoni’s coaching style, hailed
the news on his Twitter account.
“Happy days are here again!”
Johnson tweeted. “Mike D’Antoni
resigns as the Lakers coach. I
couldn’t be happier!”
D’Antoni also has coached the Nuggets, Suns and Knicks. He reached
two Western Conference finals with
Nash in Phoenix before having much
less success in New York.
“Whenever a coach isn’t there
anymore, for whatever reason, all of
us in the fraternity feel badly,” San
Antonio coach Gregg Popovich said
after the Spurs’ playoff victory over
Dallas. “He is a heck of a coach and
heck of a guy. You always feel badly
when something like that happens.
I just hope that what he wants is going to be what happens for him. He
is a special guy.”

Ripley

From Page 6
don’t hand you a manual and tell you
how to handle the media swarm,
how to handle the paparazzi, how to
handle people coming up to you at
dinners.
“He would tell you very candidly
that it’s probably not how he would
have written it up now that he’s at the
end of it or getting towards the end
of his college career, but you live and
you learn.”
Manziel would certainly put Cleveland back on the football map and revitalize a flagging franchise. He’d sell
tickets and move merchandise.
But is that enough?
Groves called one of his college
coaches now at Texas A&amp;M for a
scouting report.
“I asked him, ‘How is Johnny? Is

he a football guy?’” Groves said. “He
said, ‘Honestly, he’s the most competitive guy you’ll ever meet. He is a
guy that will come in, be the first in,
last to leave. that’s just him.’ I know
you have the flashy lifestyle (Groves
mimics Manziel’s signature finger
rub), (rapper) Drake and all that
stuff, and at the end of the day the
guy wins ballgames.
“He makes plays. He extends
drives and wins ballgames.”
Browns offensive coordinator Kyle
Shanahan, who coached quarterback
Robert Griffin III in Washington,
thinks Manziel’s unorthodox style
can win in the pros.
“If you can make those plays in college, you can do it in the NFL,” he
said. “The one thing about the NFL,
there’s a lot of tape out there. You’ve
got to be able to do everything.
“Whatever you do very good,

they’re going to eventually be able to
shut that down and you’re going to
have to do something else. He’s going to be able to make plays in this
league. Eventually when they try to
contain him, he’s going to have to do
