Big losses for railroads pull companies lower NEW YORK (AP) — Stock indexes were posting slight losses in afternoon trading on Wall Street Wednesday as a sharp drop for railroad operator CSX pulled other industrial companies lower.

Qualcomm rose 1% following reports that the government asked a court to pause enforcement of an antitrust ruling. Microsoft, Intel and Adobe also rose. Corporate earnings reports are getting into full swing this week, and investors have been mostly cautious in their assessments of them. Earnings are still expected to decline for S&P 500 companies in the second quarter. CSX plunged 10.1% after saying it now expects its revenue to decline as much as 2% this year, after previously saying it expected growth. Investors read that as trouble for the entire industry and sent the stock of other railroad operators lower. Union Paciﬁc sank 5.5% and Norfolk Southern dropped 6.4%.

Morgan nonetheless crossed the Ohio at Brandenburg, Kentucky, into Indiana and then moved across the Ohio-Indiana border at Harrison, Ohio, on July 13. From there, he circumvented Cincinnati to reach Williamsburg, Ohio, in the eastern part of Clermont County. He then charged to Washington Court House, on through Ross, Pike, Jackson, and Vinton Counties, and into Meigs County. According to Edgar Ervin’s Pioneer History of Meigs County, Morgan’s Raid in Meigs County is important because it was the northern limit that any southern army, or fragment thereof reached in battle. It was astonishing that a daring leader such as he could go so far, yet from a military standpoint, accomplish so little by his raid. It gave Meigs County a war consciousness that I had never experienced before. He took advantage of the conditions and timed his raid at a time when parts of the Ohio River in Meigs County could be forded on horseback. Had his raid come 60 days earlier or 60 days later the Ohio River would have been more of a barrier to him. Before the expedition was begun Morgan had sent spies along the Ohio to discover fords or easiest places of crossing. One of the best was at Bufﬁngton Island about 30 miles above Pomeroy and about the same distance below Parkersburg, or perhaps a little farther. This then, became Morgan’s objective point. After leaving Williamsburg, Morgan divided his forces, Colonel Richard Morgan (his brother), bearing to the south west and passing through Georgetown, the county seat of Brown County, and General John Hunt Morgan with his column marched in a northeast direction as far as Washington Courthouse. Thence turning to the southeast he passed through Ross County leaving Chillicothe to his left where quite a considerable force of militia men were waiting. Passing on through Piketon in Pike County, and Jackson in Jackson County, stealing horses and supplies along the way. General John Hunt Morgan was a Freemason. In 1846, Morgan became a Mason at Daviess Lodge #22 in Lexington, Kentucky. While pillaging through the town of Jackson, some of his men were said to have ransacked and looted items from Trowel Lodge #132 in Jackson, most notably the Tyler’s sword. Morgan allegedly scolded the men and ordered them to return the stolen paraphernalia back to the Masonic Temple. From here, Morgan went to Vinton in Gallia County, and on to Wilkesville, then making his entrance into Meigs County. The Union response was not long in coming, as Major General Ambrose Burnside, commanding the Department of the Ohio, ordered out all available troops, as well as sending several Union Navy gunboats steaming up the Ohio River to contest any Confederate attempt to reach Kentucky or West Virginia and safety. Brig. Gen. Edward H. Hobson led several columns of Federal cavalry in pursuit of Morgan’s raiders, which by now had been reduced to some 1,700 men. Ohio Governor David Tod called out the local militia, and volunteers formed companies to protect towns and river crossings throughout the region. On July 18, Morgan, having split his column earlier, led his reunited force towards Pomeroy, where Morgan intended to cross into West Virginia. Running a gauntlet of small arms ﬁre, Morgan’s men were denied access to the river and to Pomeroy itself by a local militia. According to Ervin’s Pioneer History of Meigs County, The local militia in advance of him were beginning to fall trees and tear up bridges to obstruct Morgan’s progress. Near Pomeroy they made a stand. For four or ﬁve miles his road ran through a ravine, with occasional intersections from hill roads. At all these crossings he found a local militia posted, and from the hills above him they made his passage through the ravine a perfect running of the gauntlet. On front, ﬂank and rear the militia pressed and closed eagerly upon his track. It was fortune that two of the Middleport companies of Ohio National Guard - one of infantry commanded by Captain RB Wilson, Lieutenants OP Skinner and Samuel Grant; the other of artillery, Captain John Schreiner, the two numbering about 120 men – to render service so valuable that it should ﬁnd a place in history. With other organizations these companies were ordered to rendezvous at Marietta. On the very night of their arrival in camp came tidings of the enemy’s approach to their own town and they at once asked for orders to return to the defense of their homes. With but a little delay they were put aboard a steamer, and by daylight the following morning had disembarked and were several miles out on the roads by which Morgan was approaching. William Grant, George Womeldorff and James Waddell, three of the most reliable men of the command, “were directed to ﬁnd a point well up the road from which they could observe the approach and estimate the number of the enemy, and by an agreed signal advised headquarters of the fax ascertains.” The “artillery” consisted of an old gun that had been used for celebrating the Fourth of July, which, loaded with spikes and pieces of chain “commanded” for several hundred yards a straight piece of road ﬂanked on one side by timber where part of [the Meigs County] men were concealed and on the other side by a creek with steep banks. Scarcely had the dispositions been made when the enemy appeared. William Grant and his comrades, assisted by the darkness, avoided the approaching raiders, who, a few moments later, ran up on the picket commanded by Lieutenant Samuel Grant and surrendered without much resistance. They were marched to Pomeroy and placed under guard in the courthouse to be turned over as prisoners of war, 68 enlisted men and seven ofﬁcers.

USS Fairplay 1862-1865, Tinclad #17 Meigs and Gallia Counties, published by the Union Publishing Company, … The show of resistance was enough to turn him aside and he moved off of the river towards Bufﬁngton Island. At Chester, he resisted for an hour and a half and hunted for a guide. That stop though so short was fatal for it was 8 o’clock when he had reached the ford, too late and dark to undertake to cross. And he persisted right on after arriving at Chester that to him most precious hour and a half would no doubt have seen him safely on the Virginia side. Tired and worn out, both men and horses, he decided to rest for the night on the north bank of the Ohio. The handful of men who had thrown up works near the riverbank and attempted to impede his progress, might then have been easily brushed aside. But the dawn of another morning brought him more formidable enemy and the person of general Judah with his regulars who had arrived in the night by a boat, fresh and ready for the conﬂict. Here is the description of the movements as given by Whitelaw Reid in his Ohio in The War, that refer to the stop at Chester. But [Morgan’s] evil genius was upon him. He had lost an hour and a half at Chester in the afternoon – the most precious hour and a half since his horse’s feet touched Northern soil: and he now decided to waste the night. In the hurried counsel with his exhausted ofﬁcers it was admitted on all hands that Judah had arrived - but some of his troops had probably given force to the skirmishing near Pomeroy - that they would certainly be at Bufﬁngton by morning and that gunboats would accompany them. But his men were in bad condition and he feared to trash them in the night attack upon a fortiﬁed position which she had not reconnoitered. The fear was fatal. Even yet, by abandoning his wagon trains and his wounded he might have reached unguarded forwards a little higher up. This too, was mentioned by Morgan‘s ofﬁcers. He would save all he promptly replied or lose altogether. And so he gave mortgages to fate. By morning Judah was up. Information reached Captain Wilson that one detachment would undertake to cross the Ohio as a show place several miles above Pomeroy, and reinforced by about 20 men, under Daniel Davis of Pome- roy, he immediately marched up to intercept the fugitive, reaching the point late in the evening. At daybreak Duke advanced with a couple of rebel regiments to storm the earth work, but found it abandoned. He was rapidly proceeding to make dispositions for crossing when Judah’s advance struck him. At ﬁrst he repulsed it and took a number of prisoners, the adjutant general of Judah’s staff among them. Morgan then ordered him to hold the force on his front and check. He was not able to return to his command until it had been broken and thrown into fall retreat before and impetuous charge of Judah’s cavalry, headed by Lieutenant O’Neal of Fifth Indiana. He succeeded in rallying then reforming his line. But now, advancing up the Chester and Pomeroy Road, came the gallant cavalry that over three states had been galloping on their tract – the 3000 of Hobson’s command – who for now two weeks had been only a day, a forenoon, an hour behind them. As Hobson’s guidons ﬂuttered out in the little valley by the riverbank where they fought, every man of that band that had so long deﬁed 100,000 knew that the contest was over. They were almost out of ammunition, exhausted and scarcely 2000 strong. Against them were Hobson’s 3000 and Judah’s still larger force. To complete the overwhelming odds that, in spite of their efforts, had at last been concentrated upon them, the tin-clad gun boats steamed up an open ﬁre. Morgan comprehended the situation as readily as a hard riding troopers, who, still clinging to their bolts of calico, we’re already beginning to gallop towards the rear. He at once essayed to extricate his trains and then to withdraw his regiments by column of fours from right of companies, keeping up meanwhile, as sturdy resistance as he might. For some distance the withdrawal was made in tolerable order; then under a charge of a Michigan cavalry regiment, everything was broken, and the retreat became a rout. Morgan with not quite 1200 man escaped. His brother with Colonels Duke, Ward, Huffman and about 700 men were taken prisoner. This was the battle of Bufﬁngton Island. It was brief and decisive. But for his two grave mistakes of the night before, Morgan might have avoided it and escaped, and many a thrilling tale of the events that happened in the following seven days and nights The wanted poster for General Morgan after escaping from the Ohio Penitentiary. of the raid would never have been told,… But it cannot be said he yielded to blow that insured his fate without resistance, and the courage and tenacity worthy of a better cause. The superiority in forces was overwhelming and the Union losses small. The boats carried the prisoners back to Cincinnati and the troops, with a little rest, pushed on after Morgan and the 1,200 men who had escaped. About 15 or 20 miles above Bufﬁngton Island he again attempted to cross and succeeded in landing 1/4 of his men on Virginia soil. Morgan himself was in the middle of the Ohio River but the gunboats were to close upon him and he was forced back to the Ohio side with his remaining 900 men. Again, his hurried ﬂight was taken up. Almost insurmountable difﬁculties surrounded him. His men were exhausted from long, forced marches and enormous work. Their pillaging had greatly demoralized them. The blow of defeat was severe causing a lack of faith in themselves and a loss of conﬁdence in their intrepid commander. They were harassed on every hand. Every loophole of escape shut off; hunted like game, day or night. Yet to the very last the energy of this during cavalryman worthy of admiration of all – even his enemies. With no apparent possibility of escape at Bufﬁngton Island he slipped away from Judah and Hobson with more than half of his forces. After Belleville, he headed almost west and went far as MacArthur. His course then ran back to Blennerhassett Island, thence through Athens, eastern Hocking and Perry Counties and into Morgan County near Porterville on July 22, 1863. He then continued through Muskingum County, Noble, Guernsey, Carroll, Harrison, Jefferson and Columbiana Counties where he was captured at Salineville, near Steubenville. He was then conﬁned to the Ohio penitentiary several months until his escape November 27, through Cincinnati, Kentucky and Tennessee to Richmond, Virginia. He was killed in 1864 in a skirmish in East Tennessee. As the old Ohio ﬂows….

That doesn’t necessarily mean the Longhorns are back just yet. “We weren’t here to just have a really good season in Year 2,” Herman said Tuesday. “We were here to rebuild a program that’s capable of sustaining success, and we feel like we’re on the way there.” With junior quarterback Sam Ehlinger, the preseason Big 12 offensive player of the year, the Longhorns are picked to again ﬁnish second in the league behind four-time defending champion Oklahoma. The Longhorns won the Red River rivalry game at the State Fair of Texas last October. But the Sooners won the conference title game at the home stadium of the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys, where the two-day Big 12 media days wrapped up Tuesday and where the championship game will be played again in December. “When you take over a program that hadn’t won 10 or more games in a decade, and had gone through three straight losing seasons, there’s some work to be done, in terms of being able to sustain a level of success that everybody associated with Texas football expects,” Herman said. “I was really proud of our players for their buy-in level last season, and the results on the ﬁeld showed that. It’s still a work in progress.” With four new coaches in the Big 12 this season, the biggest turnover in league history, only Oklahoma State’s Mike Gundy, TCU’s Gary Patterson and Iowa State’s Matt Campbell (going into his fourth season) have been in the league longer than Herman. After success outside the Power Five, two of the coaches featured on the ﬁnal day are just getting started — Kansas State’s Chris Klieman and West Virginia’s Neal Brown. Brown, who took over the Mountaineers after Dana Holgorsen left for Houston, is coming off three consecutive 10-win seasons with bowl victories at Troy. He is returning to the Big 12, where he was Texas Tech’s offensive coordinator from 2010-12. Klieman was part of seven FCS championships the past eight seasons, including four in his ﬁve years as head coach. He replaced the retired Bill Snyder, who won 215 games in his 27 seasons. “What coach did at Kansas State was nothing short of remarkable and I’m going to feed off that,” Klieman said. “We have a great culture because of what coach did. I know I’m not going to ﬁll his shoes. I’m just trying to continue in his legacy, but doing it our own way.” Herman said he looks at Clemson coach Dabo Swinney, whose Tigers have won two of the past three national championships. It was in Swinney’s eighth season when the Tigers ﬁnally won a championship, in 2016, before beating Alabama again last season.

Huh | AP Cincinnati Reds relief pitcher David Hernandez wipes his face in the dugout during the seventh inning against the Chicago Cubs in Chicago on Wednesday. The Cubs won 5-2. Cubs top Reds, 5-2 By Matt Carlson Associated Press CHICAGO — Yu Darvish tossed six innings of two-hit, shutout ball to ﬁnally earn his ﬁrst win at Wrigley Field as a Cub and lead Chicago past the Cincinnati Reds 5-2 on Wednesday. Kris Bryant and Addison Russell homered for the only hits off Sonny Gray (5-6) as Chicago won for the ﬁfth time in six games. Jason Heyward drove in two insurance runs with a double as the NL Central leaders took two of three from the Reds to win just their second series since sweeping St. Louis on June 7-9. Entering Wednesday, Darvish was 0-5 with a 5.50 ERA in 13 starts at the iconic ballpark after signing a six-year, $126 million contract with Chicago in February 2018. On Wednesday, the right-hander was sharp for the second straight start and didn’t allow a hit until catcher Juan Graterol lined a soft single to center with two outs in the ﬁfth. Darvish (3-4) also won for the ﬁrst time anywhere since April 27 at Arizona as he struck out seven, walked none and hit two batters. The right-hander had 12 nodecisions and a loss in his previous 13 starts. Craig Kimbrel pitched a perfect ninth for his fourth save in ﬁve chances. Gray nearly matched Darvish, allowing just two hits — Bryant’s and Russell’s drives — while striking out eight and walking none through six innings. Nick Senzel and Yasiel Puig drove in runs in the eighth off Brandon Kintzler, but the Reds lost for the sixth time in eight games. Before Graterol’s hit, Darvish retired 14 of the ﬁrst 16 Cincinnati batters. The righty hit Scooter Gennett with a pitch with two outs in the second, then struck Derek Dietrich on the right knee to lead off the ﬁfth. Dietrich was replaced by pinch runner Phillip Ervin after being plunked for the league-leading 21st time and fourth time in three games in Chicago. Bryant hit his 20th homer and went deep for the second straight day when he lofted the ﬁrst pitch he saw into the leftcenter bleachers for a 1-0 Chicago lead. Russell made it 2-0 in the second with a solo shot to left, his sixth homer. Senzel was thrown out at the plate in the sixth by third baseman David Bote when he tried to score on Eugenio’s Suárez’s sharp chopper. Heyward’s two-run double off David Hernandez in the seventh made it 4-0. After the Reds closed to 4-2, Anthony Rizzo singled in a run in the bottom of the inning. Cincinnati Kid The Reds placed closer Raisel Iglesias on the three-day paternity list and selected Graterol’s contract from Triple-A Louisville. Iglesias is 2-8 with 17 saves in 19 chances. Graterol started Wednesday and batted eighth. Trainer’s room Reds: C Curt Casali (right knee inﬂamma- tion) didn’t start for the second straight game, but was available off the bench.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The Philadelphia Phillies placed veteran outﬁelder Jay Bruce on the 10-day injured list with a strained right oblique on Wednesday and recalled outﬁelder Nick Williams from Triple-A Lehigh Valley. Bruce was injured on a checked swing in the third inning of the Phillies’ 9-8 comeback win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday night. He is batting .256 with 10 homers and 29 RBIs in 33 games with the Phillies since being acquired from the Seattle Mariners on June 2. Phillies manager Gabe Kapler said the club will miss Bruce’s bat and his intangibles. “You lose a veteran presence who understands how to approach most pitchers and has a lot of experience against many of them,” Kapler said. “He gives you a high quality veteran at-bat. That proﬁle, along with his production, is difﬁcult to replace.” LAS VEGAS (AP) — Germany’s Hossein Ensan outlasted Italy’s Dario Sammartino and Canada’s Alex Livingston to claim the $10 million title early Wednesday at the 50th World Series of Poker Main Event in Las Vegas. The 55-year-old native of Iran who immigrated to Germany 30 years ago became the oldest world poker champion in 20 years when he won the 301st hand at the ﬁnal table to ﬁnish off Sammartino after nearly eight hours of play. It’s the ﬁrst time since 2014 the winner has come from outside the United States and third time ever the title has gone to an Iranian-born competitor. “Unbelievable,” said Ensan, BROADCAST From page 6 for Texas — the last for a Big 12 team — was the 2005 season, Mack Brown’s eighth in Austin, though the Longhorns did get to another title game in 2009. “I’m not saying we’re setting the bar for seven years, but what I’m saying is we want win championships, and we want to win them now,” Herman said. “But we were brought here to rebuild a program and that takes time.” Ehlinger threw for 3,292 yards with 25 touchdowns and only ﬁve interceptions last season. He also ran for 16 scores.

One ﬁnancial institution had obtained a default judgment that garnished 25% of his wages at Auburn, they added. “Creditors were growing impatient, and Chuck was becoming desperate. Chuck could have turned to his many friends for help, but he was embarrassed and ashamed,” they wrote. Instead, the man who overcame racism and extreme poverty growing up in rural Alabama got swept up in the college basketball scandal when his search for a new loan earned him an introduction to the government cooperator, the lawyers said. His lawyers’ submission included letters from Charles Sonny Smith, who coached at Auburn for 11 seasons through the 1980s, and Sam Perkins, another former NBA player who met Person when both competed to be on the U.S. Olympic team in 1984. Smith called Person “my favorite player ever.” Perkins said Person was “still a good friend.” who now lives in Greven, Germany. He was making his ﬁrst appearance in the Main Event with a previous total of $2.67 million in career earnings. “I am so happy. I thank my fans at home in Germany, also in Iran and my fans, my buddies here. This is the best feeling in my life,” he said after claiming the winning hand when Sammartino pushed his chips all in at 1:24 a.m. Wednesday at the Rio AllSuite Hotel & Casino on the Las Vegas Strip. Ensan, wearing a white crew neck T-shirt with poker sponsor patches, and Sammartino in a black tuxedo exchanged numerous smiles and a congratulatory ﬁst bump at one point in the good-natured contest down the stretch. Sammartino, 32, who is originally from Naples and now lives in Vienna, Austria, won $6 million for second place in the 11-day tournament that began July 3 with a ﬁeld of 8,569 — the second largest ﬁeld in the 50-year history of the event. He was bidding to become its ﬁrst Italian-born champion and now has won more than $8 million in his professional poker career. Livingston, 32, of Halifax, Nova Scotia, pocketed $4 million for third. The former chess champion who studied economics at Tufts University outside Boston ﬁnished 13th in the 2013 World Series of Poker and now has $4.65 million in career earnings in the event.

Ehlinger was asked if it was something like out of a dream to be answering questions about Bradshaw. “I don’t know if this is a dream, to tell you the truth,” he told a crowd of reporters. “Regardless of what happens, to be in this situation at the University of Texas is what I dreamed of. It’s a blessing within itself.” he earned a championship ring as an assistant coach with the Los Angeles Lakers. Lawyers wrote that Person’s previous ﬁnancial troubles intensiﬁed almost as soon as his NBA career ended, when he was paying $30,000 monthly to his ex-wife while he was earning $18,000 annually in his ﬁrst non-playing role with the Cleveland Cavaliers. “Chuck’s singular focus on basketball, his failure to plan for his ﬁnancial future, and his unbounded generosity ultimately had catastrophic consequences,” they wrote. The lawyers said he knew he was violating NCAA rules and was betraying his players and their families and Auburn University. By 2016, when he was an assistant coach at Auburn, where he had set a record as the school’s all-time leading scorer in the 1980s, he was deeply in debt with bank loans, including one to ﬁnance a community center in his hometown, and several private loans, the lawyers THURSDAY EVENING 4 Texas claim that Person was motivated by “insatiable greed.” “He is charitable literally to a fault.” She noted that after signing his ﬁrst NBA contract, he sent most of the money to family members and bought his mother a house. She described how he bought homes and cars for family and friends and made continuous donations. Then, he turned down lucrative jobs in the NBA to make less money as a college coach. Person wiped tears from his face several times during the sentencing. Of his crime, he said: “I knew it was wrong, but I did it anyway.” Person’s guilty plea in March to a bribery conspiracy charge came nearly two decades after he was a regular presence on NBA courts, known as “The Riﬂeman” for lighting up scoreboards with his long-range shooting skills. After he was drafted by the Indiana Pacers in 1986, he went on to play for ﬁve NBA teams over 13 seasons.

TVMA �SPORTS/CLASSIFIEDS 8 Thursday, July 18, 2019 Daily Sentinel A long wait, but finally a Tour win for sprint prodigy Ewan TOULOUSE, France (AP) — A bit more than a year ago, Caleb Ewan was devastated to be left out of the Tour de France. The Australian sprinter had to watch cycling’s biggest race on TV after ﬁnding out at the last minute that his Mitchelton-Scott team was placing all its bets on Adam Yates in the ﬁght for the yellow jersey, and would leave Ewan at home. A year later, Ewan earned his ﬁrst Tour victory by edging a close sprint on Stage 11 in Toulouse on Wednesday. “I was ready for the Tour three of four years ago, I always wanted to go straight to the top races,” said Ewan, whose daughter was born just before the race started. “I’ve been held back, I ﬁnally got my chance.” Ewan switched teams to Lotto-Soudal this season to replace veteran German sprinter Andre Greipel, and the ambitious youngster was, at last, promoted to a team leader role this summer in France. But the pressure was big on Ewan, a winner of 36 professional races — including stages at the Spanish Vuelta and Giro d’Italia.

The 25-yearold Australian beat fellow sprinter Dylan Groenewegen by a tire’s width and was awarded the victory after photo ﬁnish. Elia Viviani placed third ahead of three-time world champion Peter Sagan. Ewan perfectly timed his effort after Groenewegen launched his effort on the left side of the road. Ewan took the wheel of his Dutch rival and pipped him to the line. “It was super hectic,” said Ewan, who has now completed wins at all three Grands Tours. “I ended up in Groenewegen’s wheel coming out of that corner. It’s a hard thing being with Dylan and I knew it was not going to be easy to beat him. I felt I should let him get a bit of a gap so I could sprint in his slipstream, and I could pass him quite quick. I’m happy that this time I was a few centimeters ahead of him.” The win also made up for having to leave Australia just after the birth of his daughter Lily. He thanked his wife for letting him go and compete in France in such circumstances. “She let me come here and leave my young baby in hospital,” Ewan said. “It’s the hardest thing I (740) 992-2155 or fax to (740) 992-2157 XXX�NZEBJMZTFOUJOFM�DPN�t�HEUDMBTTJöFET!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN HEUMFHBMT!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY MOTOR ROUTE Would you like to deliver newspapers as an independent contractor under an agreement with the Point Pleasant Register?

The session started with whether the one-game suspension for running back Pooka Williams in a domestic case was too short, and ended with the 65-yearold reminiscing about leaving the Dallas Cowboys for Oklahoma State and his ﬁrst shot as a head coach nearly two decades ago. In between, the theme was pretty consistent. The 2011 national coach of the year believes he’ll soon be back where he belongs after 2½ years away: on the sideline. “I think it’s an enjoyment and a realization how much I am a football coach and how much I enjoy going to the sideline with my team,” Miles said as Big 12 media days opened Monday. With that thought, Miles tried to peek through the crowd of reporters, looking for one of the tunnels at the home of the Dallas Cowboys because he realized he was on the same ﬁeld where eight years earlier he led the Tigers into a season opener against Oregon. “That moment, just kind of something that I fall back on, how much I enjoy taking the ﬁeld with a team that was ready to play,” said Miles, whose team beat Oregon and was 13-0 before losing to Alabama in the BCS championship game to end the 2011 season. The title came four years earlier with a BCS win over Ohio State. Nearly a decade later, Miles was ﬁred at LSU after a 2-2 start in 2016, having weathered years of criticism that his offense was too old-fashioned for the pass-happy college game. Now he ﬁnds himself in the passhappiest conference among the Power Five leagues, where outscoring opponents has often been the trick to winning the title, as Oklahoma has shown while winning a record four straight Big 12 championships. “If we need to throw the ball to win the game, we want to throw the ball to win the game,” said Miles, who signed a ﬁve-year contract worth $15.1 million before performance incentives. “If we need to run the ball to win the game, we’re going to run the ball to Daily Sentinel win the game.” The toughest questions for Miles were about the focal point of that running game: Williams. The sophomore was recently reinstated after being away from the team seven months following his arrest in a domestic battery case involving an 18-year-old woman. The suspension for the season opener Aug. 31 against Indiana State has been criticized as insufﬁcient after the Kansas student Williams was dating accused him of punching her in the stomach and grabbing her throat. Miles said it was important for him to stay out of the investigation by law enforcement and the university’s code of conduct proceedings. Williams, who ran for 1,125 yards and seven touchdowns as a freshman, reached a domestic violence diversion agreement with prosecutors. “He’s been remorseful,” Miles said. “He’s learned from this experience, as has our team. We’re thankful to have him back, and, again, no violence against a woman is OK. I did not make this decision, but I stand by it and see it as a right one.” Miles’ return to the Big 12 is similar to his ﬁrst stint in the league, starting in 2001. Oklahoma State had just one winning record in 12 years before he arrived, then went to bowl games the last three of Miles’ four seasons there. Kansas has gone 18-90 while dumping three head coaches since Mark Mangino was ﬁred two years after leading the Jayhawks to an Orange Bowl win and a 12-1 record in 2007 — the same season Miles won his national title. Miles, who inherited a strong program from Nick Saban at LSU, went 114-34 with the Tigers, winning at least 10 games in seven of his 11 full seasons. Oh, and safety Mike Lee has noticed that ring. “He wears it every day,” said Lee, a senior. “Looking at the ring, I want to get me a national championship ring. But before we get to a national championship, we got to get to a bowl game.” Miles couldn’t have scripted that answer any better, and the oldest head coach in the Big 12 believes he can get that process started, using the same energy that was so much a part of the quirky sideline behavior at his previous two stops. CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Kurt Busch has been called many things during his tumultuous 20 seasons at NASCAR’s top level. He is ornery, easily unhinged and has lost control of his temper enough times that it nearly derailed his career. But the most important descriptor for Busch is one often overlooked. He is a wheelman, one of the very best in NASCAR, and in the twilight of his career Busch has a chance to make that his lasting mark. Busch beat his brother head-to-head for the ﬁrst time at the Cup level in a dramatic, two-lap overtime shootout at Kentucky Speedway for Busch’s ﬁrst victory with new team Chip Ganassi Racing. It was the third time Kurt and Kyle Busch have ﬁnished 1-2 in a Cup race, but the ﬁrst time Kurt got the best of his little brother. The win came a week after a horrible pit call in Daytona cost Busch and the No. 1 team a victory. Busch had slid through a massive accident unscathed to take the lead, and as NASCAR said the race was one lap away from resuming, crew chief Matt McCall called Busch in for a quick pit stop. A lightning strike seconds later halted all action and the race was eventually called, costing Busch, McCall and Ganassi the victory. So how sweet it was Saturday night when McCall used a late call to change four tires, putting Busch in position to challenge for the Kentucky victory when the race took a sudden turn and headed to overtime. Busch charged hard toward the front, eventually got alongside Kyle and neither refused to budge. Their cars touched, wiggled, Kurt appeared to bang the wall, both seemed to hanging onto the steering wheel as if they were racing for the NASCAR championship. After Kurt got to the checkered ﬂag ﬁrst, he dove into the arms of his waiting crew, celebrated on the frontstretch, then did an old-school trip to victory lane with his crew riding along on his Chevrolet. One team member proudly waved the checkered ﬂag for the journey. The victory was the 31st career Cup win for Busch, the 2004 NASCAR champion, and extended his streak of winning at least one race a year to six consecutive seasons. Busch has just three winless years in 19 full Cup seasons — his rookie year, and then in 2012 and 2013 when he was trying to salvage his career after he was ﬁred by Roger Penske for too many public blowups. But he landed at Furniture Row Racing in 2013 and was the conduit in building a backmarker team into a championship contender. Busch’s time with the Colorado-based team was just one season, but his knowledge of race cars and how to get the most out of his equipment set the framework for Martin Truex Jr.’s 2017 championship. Busch spent ﬁve years at Stewart-Haas Racing, overshadowed by Kevin Harvick the entire time, and when a new contract didn’t materialize he moved to Ganassi and a struggling Chevrolet group. But if the car isn’t competitive, no one bothered to tell Busch, who has been among the top Chevy drivers all year. He has 11 top-10 ﬁnishes through 19 races, and his Kentucky victory was the third consecutive for a resurgent Chevrolet effort. Busch has won with nine different crew chiefs in his Cup career, proving that in his case he can get it done if the car has speed. Busch still has his cranky side, and he was difﬁcult through the ﬁrst third of the season with media because he didn’t like NASCAR’s policy that forced him to meet with reporters after qualifying. At Bristol early in the season, he essentially repeated the same answer verbatim to every question asked: “The car was loose and we didn’t get a good time. I did one lap and I’m in here talking for 30th. Car was loose, we didn’t get a good time, I don’t know what I can help you guys with.” Pleasant Valley Hospital H.
