Florida Panhandle braces for Michael, now a Category 4 storm

Florida officials said roughly 375,000 people Smith near the vulnerable coast

up and down the Gulf Coast had been urged
or ordered to evacuate
The Associated Press
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Mi-
chael roared down on the Florida
Panhandle strengthening into
a Category 4 hurricane early
Wednesday before it crashes
against the region’s white-sand
beaches, fishing villages and
coastal communities later in the
day.
The unexpected brute that
quickly sprang from a weekend
tropical depression grew swiftly,
rising in days to a catastrophic
storm. Around midday it was
expected to become one of the
Panhandle’s worst hurricanes
in memory with heavy rainfall
expected along the northeastern
Gulf Coast and life-threatening
storm surge of up to 13 feet.
Florida officials said rough-
ly 375,000 people up and down
the Gulf Coast had been urged
or ordered to evacuate. Evacua-
tions spanned 22 counties from
the Florida Panhandle into north
central Florida. But fears lin-
gered that some failed to heed
the calls to get out of Michael’s
way as the hard-charging storm
began speeding north over the
warm waters of the Gulf of Mex-
ico.
Worried meteorologists said
it had the potential of becoming
one of the worst storms in the
history of Florida’s Panhandle.
“I guess it’s the worst case
scenario. I don’t think anyone
would have experienced this in
the Panhandle,” meteorologist
Ryan Maue of weathermodels.

CHANCERY COURT CANDIDATES MEET AND GREET Board could remove Ole Miss
donor’s name after Facebook post
The Associated Press

OXFORD— University of Mississippi Chan-

cellor Jeffrey Vitter says the state College Board
could consider removing a donor’s name from
the Ole Miss journalism school after critics de-
nounced a Facebook post by the donor as racist.
Vitter says in a statement Tuesday that he’s
submitting a request to trustees after the jour-
nalism faculty and three academic councils voted
in favor of removing Ed Meek’s name from the
Meek School of Journalism and New Media.
Vitter says the proposal could get “expedited
consideration” Oct. 18.
Meek asked for his name to be removed from
the school where he and his wife donated $5.3
million.
Meek posted photos of two black women on
Facebook Sept. 19 and suggested they represent-
ed problems that could cause property values to
drop. He apologized after coming under criticism.

Long after they died, military sees surge in identifications

Officials believe remains of nearly half of the 83,000
unidentified service members killed in World War II and
more recent wars could be identified, returned to relatives
By SCOT T McFETRIDGE
The Associated Press
BELLEVUE, Neb. —
Nearly 77 years after re-
peated torpedo strikes
tore into the USS Okla-
homa, killing hundreds
of sailors and Marines,
Carrie Brown leaned
over the remains of a
serviceman laid out on a
table in her lab and was
surprised the bones still
smelled of burning oil
from that horrific day at
Pearl Harbor.
It was a visceral re-
minder of the catastroph-
ic attack that pulled the
United States into World
War II, and it added an
intimacy to the painstak-
ing work Brown and hun-
dreds of others are now
doing to greatly increase
the number of lost Amer-
ican servicemen who
have been identified.
It’s a monumental
mission that combines
science, history and intu-
ition, and it’s one Brown
and her colleagues have
recently been completing
at ramped-up speed, with
identifications expected
to reach 200 annually,
more than triple the fig-
ures from recent years.
“There are families
still carrying the torch,”
said Brown, a forensic
anthropologist with the
Defense POW/MIA Ac-
counting Agency’s lab
near Omaha, Nebraska.
“It’s just as important
now as it was 77 years
ago.”
Officials believe re-
mains of nearly half of
the 83,000 unidentified
service members killed
in World War II and more
recent wars could be
identified and returned
to relatives. The modern
effort to identify remains
started in 1973 and was
primarily based in Ha-
waii until a second lab
was opened in 2012 at
Offutt Air Force Base in
the Omaha suburb of Bel-
levue.

push, the identifications

Our View

It’s past time for Councilman Jones to explain himself

Until eight days ago, Ste-
phen Jones seemed to comport
himself as a model citizen.
Since joining the council as its
Ward 5 representative 2-1/2
years ago, he’s acted in that
role with what’s appeared to
be unflappable integrity. He’s
often been an independent
swing vote, and he’s never
been one to shy away from
explaining his positions or
accepting accountability for
his decisions.
But, indeed Jones is now
caught up in scandal for
having improperly received
hundreds of dollars of mer-
chandise from the Columbus
Bargain Hunt.
So far, the councilman’s
response is sorely lacking and
runs counter to the behavior
his constituents have come to
expect.
Bargain Hunt and Colum-
bus police are only pursuing
charges against the cashier,
who apparently allowed
thousands of dollars’ worth
of product to walk out of the
store unpaid with at least
seven customers, including
Jones and Jones’ wife. Police
have said repeatedly none
of the customers, including
Jones, is expected to face
prosecution. But there’s video
evidence, corroborated by
register invoices and credit
card receipts that show Jones
receiving alarming amounts
of merchandise from the store
for which he did not pay, all
after being checked out by the
cashier now being charged
with embezzlement.
In response, Jones has
denied he did anything wrong.
He said, “I paid for all my
stuff,” insists he doesn’t per-
sonally know the cashier and
called the police department’s
press conference last week, in
which the police chief impli-
cated Jones as a beneficiary
in the case, an effort to smear
the councilman’s name.
Then Jones hired a lawyer
and went silent. He said he
hadn’t seen the reports or the
surveillance videos but de-
clined, albeit respectfully, the
opportunity to review them at
The Dispatch office. Now, he
seems content to let the whole
thing blow over and hide
behind the fact he likely won’t
face criminal charges.
If he was the cashier or a
private citizen in his position,
that would be good enough,
we suppose. But Jones is a
councilman entrusted with
deciding on fiscal policies
that affect citizens’ lives. That
alone makes a “time heals all
wounds” response woefully
inadequate.
Even giving Jones the
benefit of the doubt, which we
are willing to do, he most cer-
tainly didn’t “pay for all of his
stuff.” Maybe he thought he
did at the time because maybe
the cashier told him he was
getting deeper discounts than
was due him.
But now he knows better.
At minimum, he should either
return the merchandise he
improperly obtained or pay
Bargain Hunt the difference.
Then he should acknowledge
to the public he was duped and
show evidence he rectified the
situation.
The other possibility, of
course, is that Jones was com-
plicit in the crime. If this is
the case, it’s certainly not the
first time a public official has
been caught up in something
improper. Jones should admit
it, apologize to the store and
his constituents and let the
consequences of telling the
truth bear themselves out.
We’re not calling for
Councilman Jones to step
down, necessarily, especially
if he has truly not willfully
done anything wrong. But we
deserve more than what we’ve
received so far.

A changing party
The swearing-in of Bret Kava-

is a major, major victory for the
reactionary wing of the Republican
Party. The party of Eisenhower,
Everett Dirksen, and Nixon has
vanished; in its place is the party of
Gingrich, McConnell, and Trump.

Today in history
Today is Wednesday, Oct. 10, the
283rd day of 2018. There are 82 days
left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History:

On Oct. 10, 1973, Vice President
Spiro T. Agnew, accused of accept-
ing bribes, pleaded no contest to
one count of federal income tax
evasion, and resigned his office.

On this date:
n In 1845, the U.S. Naval Acad-
emy was established in Annapolis,
Maryland.
n In 1911, Chinese revolution-
aries launched an uprising which
led to the collapse of the Qing (or
Manchu) Dynasty and the estab-
lishment of the Republic of China.
n In 1913, the Panama Canal
was effectively completed as
President Woodrow Wilson sent
a signal from the White House by
telegraph, setting off explosives
that destroyed a section of the
Gamboa dike.
n In 1938, Nazi Germany com-
pleted its annexation of Czechoslo-
vakia’s Sudetenland (soo-DAYT’-
uhn-land).
n In 1943, Chiang Kai-shek
took the oath of office as president
of China.
n In 1957, President Dwight
D. Eisenhower apologized to the
finance minister of Ghana, Komla
Agbeli Gbdemah, after the official
was refused seating in a Howard
Johnson’s restaurant near Dover,
Delaware.
n In 1964, the 18th Summer
Olympic Games opened in Tokyo.
n In 1967, the Outer Space
Treaty, prohibiting the placing of
weapons of mass destruction on
the moon or elsewhere in space,
entered into force.
n In 1978, President Jimmy
Carter signed a bill authorizing
the Susan B. Anthony dollar.
n In 1985, U.S. fighter jets
forced an Egyptian plane carrying
the hijackers of the Italian cruise
ship Achille Lauro (ah-KEE’-leh
LOW’-roh) to land in Italy, where
the gunmen were taken into
custody. Actor-director Orson
Welles died in Los Angeles at age
70; actor Yul Brynner died in New
York at age 65.
n In 1997, the International
Campaign to Ban Landmines and
its coordinator, Jody Williams,
were named winners of the Nobel
Peace Prize.

The Nation
Progressives need more than a majority
Here’s what gets me
about progressives.
They never seem to
realize that they are the
majority. Yet on issue after
issue, the polling consis-
tently shows that they are.
Abortion? Sixty-four per-
cent of Americans support
Roe v. Wade.
Guns? Sixty-seven per-
cent want stricter laws.
Taxes? Sixty-one percent Leonard Pitts
say the rich need to pay
more.
Health care? Fifty-six percent want
government to ensure coverage to all
Americans.
But it’s not just opinion polls. It’s
also presidential polls. Republicans
have won the popular vote only once
since 1992.
So liberals could have the world
they say they want — with sensible
gun laws, immigration reform, univer-
sal health care, reproductive rights,
healing of the planet — if they only
had the wit, the will and the courage of be a majority white nation, but rather,
their convictions.
Instead, we have a world of weekly
mass shootings, children in cages, the
Affordable Care Act barely escaping
repeal, Roe v. Wade endangered and
a dire new United Nations report fore-
casting planetary catastrophe. Also:
Brett Kavanaugh was just confirmed to sponding rise of voter suppression, the
the Supreme Court.
He is a man credibly accused of
attempted rape and blackout drunk-
enness, a man who, under
pressure, demonstrates the
temperamental restraint
of a sugar-addled toddler
two hours past naptime. Yet
he sits now on the highest
court in the land.
That didn’t just happen.
Rather, it was the capstone
of a long-term scheme to
reshape the judiciary as a
right-wing rubber stamp.
Maybe you remember how
Republicans stole a seat on
the high court by refusing
to give a hearing to President Obama’s
nominee. Now, with the mostly par-
ty-line vote that shoved Kavanaugh
through, the court suddenly seems
less a disinterested referee of democ-
racy than a partisan tool, its legitima-
cy sacrificed on an altar of political
expedience.
But what’s going on here is bigger,
even, than the court. Consider the
Census Bureau projection that, within
about 25 years, America will no longer
a nation in which no racial group is
numerically superior. Consider the
visceral terror of many in the white
majority as “Others” — blacks, Mus-
lims, LGBTQ, Hispanics — rise and
demand voices. Consider the gutting
of the Voting Rights Act, the corre-
use of gerrymandering to neuter black
ballots, mass incarceration and rising
hostility toward immigrants from the
south.
Consider all those factors and the
true shape of things becomes clear.
Like Afrikaners in apartheid South
Africa, conservatives seek to enshrine
minority rule, to ensure that, even as
they decline as a percentage of the
population, the forces of white patri-
archy, of racial, religious and cultural
homogeneity maintain their strangle-
hold on power.
And with apologies to Malcolm X,
they are willing to do so by any means
necessary. The question is: What are
the rest of us willing to do in response?
Are we willing to play the long
game as conservatives have?
Are we willing to play with the
ruthlessness and calculation they’ve
shown?
Are we willing to organize, to meet
at the intersection of our manifold
causes, concerns and lives?
November 6 will give us the begin-
nings of an answer. Until then, one can
only hope.
Progressives are the larger of the
two main ideologies in American
politics. Yet they were just forced to
watch in impotence as conservatives
reshaped the top court by an act of
sheer political thuggery. The lesson
should be clear. It’s great to have size
on your side.
But it’s how you use it that counts.

“The story of people
who die from opioid over-
doses typically begins
with a prescription drug,”
Harless said. “... More of-
ten than not, people don’t
wake up and say, ‘To-
day’s the day I’m gonna
go shoot heroin.’ It starts
with a car wreck. It starts
with a twisted knee. It
starts with a prescription
that goes unchecked.”
Anyone can fall victim
Angella Mallette’s case
of opioid addiction start-
ed with a prescription.
Now an outreach coordi-
nator for the Mississippi
Department of Mental
Health, she didn’t realize
she was an opioid addict
until it was too late.
Mallette recalled being
shown pictures in school
of what methamphet-
amine or cocaine addicts
look like. But she was a
professional, with an engi-
neering degree from the
University of Mississippi.
Her life began to
change after her child was
stillborn eight months
into her pregnancy and
doctors had to perform an
emergency caesarian sec-
tion. She went home with
an oxycontin prescription
and was back at work
three days later.
“I didn’t realize that
it was because of these
pills that I was able to go
back to work so fast,” she
said. “Fast-forward about
two or three months and
I’m physically addicted
to them — I’d get sick if
I did not take them. So

dent disciplinary referrals
would largely decrease
throughout the district.
“Our overall discipline
has decreased, but our
bus discipline is the area
of concern that’s kind of
taking our data out of the
norm,” Labat said. “We
know that if we focus on
it, we will definitely see a
decrease from last year to
this year with the number
of disciplinary referrals.”
The district has been
monitoring bus referral
issues and begun trouble-
shooting solutions, she
said. For example, Sale
Elementary School and
Columbus Middle School
principals both started
using positive reinforce-
ment for bus behavior by
recognizing well-behaved
students and a “bus of the
week.” Labat said she be-
lieves more schools will
implement similar strate-
gies.

Lt. John Harless, with the Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics, talks about the rise of opi-
oid use in Mississippi and across the United States during a Tuesday evening opioid
town hall at Mississippi State University. The town hall, hosted by the Mississippi De-
partment of Mental Health, focused on educating citizens about the opioid epidemic.
(then) my girlfriends in
my social circles became

husbands had pills they
didn’t take.
“Fast-forward a little
bit longer and I’m buying
them off the street,” Mal-
lette continued. “Eventu-
ally, addiction did to me
what it does to everyone.
It chewed me up and spit
me out.”
Mallette’s addiction
led to heroin use, and ul-
timately, a felony charge
before she was court-or-
dered to treatment in
Jackson in 2013.
The recovery process,
Mallette said, is not easy.
It comes with setbacks,
and she even had her own
setback in 2016.
Now, Mallette shares
her story in an effort to
help support those who
struggle with addiction
and to raise awareness of
With the mass amount
of bus infractions, Labat
said the district may also
have to reconsider which
discipline issues to re-
port.
“We are reporting ev-
ery single infraction,”
Labat said. “Even when
a child is warned, it’s
picked up as an infraction.
If you’re not in your seat,
that’s an infraction. The
way we are reporting, that
may be a systematic issue
that we may need to re-
solve within the form.”
The board also heard a
presentation from repre-
sentatives of Ecco Ride, a
contracted transportation
company with CMSD that
trains and provides bus
drivers. Board President
Jason Spears said the pre-
sentation was prompted
by student discipline is-
sues on buses last year.
“It’s something that

the opioid crisis. She said
the scariest thing about
the opioid epidemic is that
anyone can fall victim to
it.
“Addiction is not
something that someone
chooses to do and it’s not
something that someone
can stop voluntarily on
their own, without treat-
ment,” she said.
Statistics
Harless said a spike in
drug prescriptions usual-
ly precedes a rise in her-
oin usage.
That was the case in
Mississippi, where, he
said, heroin wasn’t a ma-
jor concern until about
four or five years ago.
Since then, deaths from
heroin have risen more
than 3,000 percent and
felony cases of heroin use
are up about 400 percent
throughout last school
year,” he said. “We just
felt like now is the time
to work with contractors
and see what ways we can
look to resolve any issues
that may exist.”
The presentation
touched primarily on the
training Ecco Ride pro-
vides its drivers, includ-
ing how to handle fight-
ing on buses, as well as
protocol on everything
from wrecks to extreme
weather conditions.
Labat said it was im-
portant to understand
what Ecco Ride is doing
to promote student safety
and good behavior so the
district can troubleshoot
a solution. She added the
principals of each school
have started to investi-
gate the “problem areas”
including which buses
and routes have the high-
est infractions.

STARKVILLE — Hailey Zerbel
used to consider herself a daredevil.
Whether it was skateboarding or
riding a dirt bike, Zerbel attacked
her activities with an abandon that
eschewed elbow pads or helmets.
As a psychology major, the Missis-
sippi State junior forward/defender is
capable of explaining how someone
who grew up competing in gymnas-
tics and loved to challenge herself
could become such a natural at a flip
throw, a move in which a soccer play-
er runs, flips their body to place the
ball on the ground, and then rotates
to throw the ball in.
“I was kind of like the Tom boy
with my sister (Jordan), and I used to
skateboard with all of my guy cous-
ins,” Zerbel said. “We’d race each
other when we’d ride dirt bikes. I
didn’t mind getting hurt or getting a
little bit of dirt on me.”
Zerbel and No. 23 MSU will look to
improve their standing in the South-
eastern Conference when they take on
No. 5 Texas A&M at 7:30 p.m. Friday in
College Station, Texas. The match will
be broadcast on SEC Network+.
MSU (9-3-1, 2-3-1 SEC) is coming
off a 5-2 victory against Alabama on
Sunday in Starkville. Zerbel became
the first MSU player to record three
assists in a SEC game. Zerbel used her
flip throw to get the ball into the box,
where Brooke McKee headed the ball
on frame. An Alabama player stepped
in the way on the goal line, but Niah
Johnson found the rebound just inside
the left post and tapped it home.
In the 25th minute, Zerbel’s throw
went to McKee, who headed the ball

Lemonis gearing up
for first MSU World
Series this weekend
By Bret t Hudson
bhudson@cdispatch.com
STARKVILLE — Chris Lemonis’ first fall as
Mississippi State’s baseball coach
will conclude with a weekend of
evaluation and some time with
fathers and sons.
MSU will kick off its annual
intrasquad world series with
Game 1 at 4 p.m. Thursday. The
series will wrap up with games at
7:30 p.m. Friday and at 11:30 a.m. Lemonis
Saturday.
Also Saturday, MSU will hold its Fall Father
and Son Overnight Camp.
The Dispatch talked with Lemonis on Tuesday
for a question-and-answer session.
The Dispatch: You said when you were intro-
duced you were probably the first coach to take
over a team days after it was one of the final four
in Omaha, Nebraska (at the College World Se-
ries). What has it been like to start with a team
like this?
Lemonis: It’s a lot of implementation, the
players getting to know us and us getting to
know the players. As we finish going through
the last week of the fall, there’s things we need
to work on a little more — putting in our system,
learning how it works around here, learning the
kids, their personalities and vice versa, learning
about us and our personalities. That’s been a big
part of the first eight weeks.
The Dispatch: Would culture be another way
to put it?
Lemonis: It’s learning everything about it and
developing it. It’s hard to be a family or that close
when you don’t know each other that well. We’re in
that process of building that relationship piece.
The Dispatch: What do you want the trade-
mark of your culture to be?

them an inch. The defense was embar-
rassed the last time we played here. This
isn’t mean to be disrespectful to Northwest
because they are really good, but we want-
ed this one badly. This was a champion-
ship-type effort.”
When Cliff Collins returned to EMCC
as defensive coordinator prior to the 2017
season, his goal was to beef up the de-
fensive line. A talented front four helped
EMCC win National Junior College Athlet-
ic Association (NJCAA) national champi-
onships in 2013 and 2014. Last season, that
line struggled in Northwest Mississippi
C.C.’s 61-38 regular-season win. It didn’t
fare much better in the rematch, a 67-66,
double-overtime victory in the MACJC
State championship game.
On Thursday night, the defensive line
responded with a season-high 10 sacks.
Akins provided the exclamation point with
a 79-yard interception return in the fourth
quarter. It was his third interception and
second touchdown return. He also has 22
tackles.
“The defense didn’t really live up to
the championship standard a season ago,”
Akins said. “For the sophomores, it was im-
portant to come out and set a standard for
how we are going to play. Even when you
win the (national) championship, there are
still things you can do better. We always
have a great offense here. We were fortu-
nate last year, in that they could bail us out
when we weren’t at our best.
“This year is different. Guys are flying
to the ball and making plays. It has been
fun.”
Collins knew Akins would be a pivotal
piece of the defense.
“Quez always plays with a high motor,”
Collins said. “He is an energy guy. You need
a lot of those. When a player gets down,
someone else has to be there to pick them
up. That is what energy guys can do for a
defense. They can get you going in prac-
tice. They can get you going in a game.”
EMCC forced four turnovers against
Northwest Mississippi C.C. to give it 17 on
the season.
“Those are momentum-changing plays,”
Akins said. “We live for those moments.”
EMCC also stood tall a week earlier in a
24-21 victory against then-No. 20 East Cen-
tral C.C. The rare close call for the Lions
made them thankful and hungry.
“You have to play for 60 minutes,” Akins
said. “That was the biggest take-away from
the East Central win. We don’t have to play
hard for 60 minutes. Against East Central,
we didn’t do that when we should have, so
against Northwest we were determined to
play hard for 60 minutes and then whatever
happened happened.”
n In related news, EMCC sophomore defensive end
Everitt Cunningham was named Tuesday the MACJC De-
fensive Player of the Week. Cunningham, a West Point High
School product, had three sacks against then-No. 2 North-
west Mississippi C.C. He also forced a fumble and broke up
a pass.
Itawamba C.C. freshman quarterback Clark Mills was
named the MACJC Offensive Player of the Week. Mills, who
is from Ecru, led ICC to a 37-34 road victory against then-No.
18 Holmes C.C. last week by going 29-for-41 and throwing for

Red Sox hold on to beat Yankees, reach ALCS
By RONALD BLUM
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Eduardo Nunez
charged Gleyber Torres’ four-hop-
per toward third base and whipped
the ball across the diamond. Steve
Pearce stretched, falling on his
chest for a sprawling catch. The
umpire signaled: “Out!”
The Boston Red Sox gathered
around exhausted closer Craig Kim-
brel, hugging and celebrating after
the New York Yankees’ two-run rally
in the ninth inning fell short.
But wait!
In 21st century baseball, the
game doesn’t always end when it
seems, hanging in limbo until um-
pires in a downtown Manhattan re-
play room agree .
A Yankee Stadium crowd of 49,641
wondered and the Red Sox paused
as they watched from the infield in
Boston 4, New York 3
suspended celebration, fixated on the
center-field video board.
After 63 seconds that felt like
a lot longer, crew chief Mike Win-
ters heard the decision, took off his
headset, raised his right fist and
made it official: The Red Sox beat
the Yankees 4-3 Tuesday night to
win the American League Division
Series 3-1, setting up a postseason
rematch with the World Series
champion Astros.
“I’ve been talking about them
the whole season, so now we go,”
said Red Sox rookie manager Alex
Cora, Houston’s bench coach last
year. “Best of seven. They know
me. I know them. It should be fun.”
J.D. Martinez and the 108-win
Red Sox reached the AL Champion-
ship Series for the first time since
Boston won the title in 2013. A year
after losing to Houston in a four-
game ALDS, the Red Sox open the
best-of-seven matchup against the
103-win Astros on Saturday night
at Fenway Park. Houston went 4-3
against Boston this year.
“Awesome to clinch this one,”
Red Sox reliever Matt Barnes said,
“but we’ve got eight more.”
A New Jersey native who grew
up a Mets fan, Rick Porcello held
the Yankees to one run over five in-
nings for his first postseason win in
13 appearances. Barnes and Ryan
Brasier followed with a perfect in-
ning each to protect a 4-1 lead.
Red Sox ace Chris Sale told Cora
when he arrived at the ballpark that
he wanted to pitch, and he followed
with a 1-2-3 eighth in a rare relief
appearance that extended the Yan-
kees’ streak of consecutive outs to
11.
fense hasn’t been effective
when playing against con-
ference foes. The Rebels
are averaging nearly 58
points per game in four non-
conference wins and 11.5
points in two league losses.
There’s at least one obvi-
ous excuse for that dispar-
ity. The Rebels’ two SEC
games were against No.
1 Alabama and then-No.
6 LSU, which both have
some of the best defensive
players in college football.
By comparison, Arkan-
sas has struggled on de-
fense, ranking near the bot-
tom of the league in most
categories. Ole Miss offen-
sive coordinator Phil Longo
said Arkansas’ defense isn’t
as deep as Alabama’s or
LSU’s, but the Razorbacks
still have several playmak-
ers in the starting lineup.
“Their front seven is
pretty good,” Longo said.
said the Rebels’ mental im-
provement against the War-
hawks is something that
can carry over to games
against SEC competition.
“I do see it as a step for-
ward, because a lot of those
decisions were pre-snap,”
Longo said. “Post-snap we
already know where we’re
going. It’s that time in the
twilight zone between them
getting the signal and then
running the play that they
have to assimilate some in-
formation about where they
want to go.”
That growth is encour-
aging because Ole Miss
doesn’t have any more non-
conference games to build
confidence. The Rebels end
the season with six straight
conference games, starting
with Arkansas.
“We’ve just got to contin-
ue to get one week better,”
Luke said.

with the lineup as a whole?
Lemonis: It’s a little
bit tough. We do have
some really good pieces
in our lineup. I tell every-
body one of the biggest
keys for us will be how
our sophomores develop,
I think that’s a big piece.
I think you know what you
get from Jake Mangum or
some of those kids, but it’s
that younger group that
played well over the last
month last year. How will
they develop? That could
be the difference in us be-
ing great and good.
I’m a big believer in
your position players
because those are the
ones that play every day.
They’re your energy.
They’re the face of your
program a lot of the time.
Great pitchers will pitch
once a week, but you’re
running a lineup out there
five days a week, the fans
get to know these guys.
We have to improve. Ev-
ery guy that came back,
even Jake Mangum, we’ve
talked about areas we can
make better. That’s the
biggest key to me: Are
we going to get the Justin
Foscue we had at the end
of the year or at the begin-
ning of the year? (What
about) Rowdey Jordan
or some of these guys? I
think that’s a big piece.
The Dispatch: That
was something that
struck me at the end of
last season, I kept waiting
for those freshmen to hit
the freshman wall. Your
predecessor (Gary Hen-
derson) even mentioned it
early on, they’re going to
hit this wall. They never
did. What do you think it
says about them that they
went to Omaha and never
hit that wall?
Lemonis: We were
talking about it yesterday.
I hate to use the word,
“gamer,” but we do have
some kids that when the
lights come on, boy they
really like to play. They
embrace that. When you
get to play in this environ-
ment day in and day out,
it doesn’t overwhelm you,
whereas right now I’m
worried about freshmen:
What is it going to look
like when the lights come
on?
The Dispatch: You’ve
got Mangum and Ethan
Small back. You’ve got
guys who are expected to
be at the top of their posi-
tions. How does that help
establish what you want
to be?
Lemonis: It’s nice to
have an established Fri-
day-night guy. It’s nice to
have an established hitter
who’s gone through the
league like he has. Elijah
MacNamee (has) really
walked through a matu-
rity wall, ‘Hey, I belong
here.’ Jordan Westburg’s
been a guy that’s been
tremendous for us this fall
in the way he practices ev-
ery day and how strong he
wants to be a better play-
er. The guy’s an animal.
The Dispatch: What do
you want in a shortstop?
Lemonis: To catch
everything. He’s still
learning the position, but
he’s very talented and he
can play the position for
a very long time. There’s
still a couple of plays here
and there that he’s learn-
ing, but that’s part of the
process of growing. He’s
been really good, proba-
bly one of our better play-
ers of the fall has been
Jordan Westburg. He can
run, he can hit, he’s hit
for some power. He’s done
some things across the
board.
The Dispatch: You
mentioned at the Colum-
bus Rotary Club meeting
that you like having set
roles in the bullpen. What
do you look for in a setup
man, in a closer, and in a
middle reliever?
Lemonis: There’s a
piece of consistency. If
somebody’s going to beat
us in the ninth, I want
them to get a couple of
hits. It’s got to be a guy
who pounds the zone,
makes pitches, and can
throw his breaking ball
for a strike under pres-
sure. In those other roles,
you need something
they’re going to swing
and miss at, and also I like
a funky guy from the right
and a funky guy from the
left. Last year I had a side-
arm/submarine guy (B.J.
Sable) that for two-thirds
of the season didn’t give
up a hit to a lefty. It gets
you out of a lot of jams. He
was a tough kid, hitting
83 (miles per hour), 84,
but got every lefty out. I’d
love to have some pieces
like that. We don’t have
that right now. We’ve got
some candidates.

manufacturing and design as-
pects of CAVS.
Horstemeyer’s aspirations for
the facemask start with the ani-
mal skulls in his office.
“We started looking at God’s
designs, how God engineered
features to mitigate shock and ab-
sorb energy,” Horstemeyer said.
“Rams don’t get concussions, do
they?”
Horstemeyer studied the
American bison’s skull and com-
pared its ramming style to that of
offensive linemen, who use short-
range, repetitive blows. He was
inspired by the ram horn’s ability
to take shock wave and transfer it
around the spiral to the tip of the
horn, where it vibrates out with-
out the skull taking that damage.
The woodpecker has a tongue
that’s able to do something simi-
lar. After also studying turtle and
armadillo shells, he made some
conclusions he thinks he can

absorb energy, mitigate the shockwave, and
transfer momentum.”

transfer to football helmets.
“There’s three things we’re
trying to do well: absorb ener-
gy, mitigate the shockwave, and
transfer momentum,” Horste-
meyer said.
Horstemeyer’s work is fo-
cused on football helmets. Simi-
lar work is beginning on hockey
helmets, but applications for the
facemask could be produced
faster. He already has a deal with
Zenith, a helmet manufacturer
with whom they’re working to fit
their facemask design. The com-
bination of a “special material”
— which he won’t identify — and
the geometric design is what he
believes makes it the best option
in the field.
The design doesn’t look like
any other facemask on the mar-
ket.
“We started with high per-
formance computing. This was
all solid,” he said, describing a
facemask that is more of a solid
arc around the front of the helmet
than it is a connection of material
forming that arc, as seen in to-
day’s helmets. Imagine if a face-
mask had no openings other than
the big one players see through,
where some place visors. “We
told the computer to minimize
damage on my brain, and this is
what came out.
“It’s the geometry and the ma-
terial. We took little blocks out of
everything. It did crossbars, an-
gles, everything.”
Horstemeyer believes the
facemask mitigates shock wave,
but it does more than protect the
brain from concussions via sheer
force.
On the bottom floor of CAVS
— where the vehicle testing Hor-
stemeyer used to be a part of still
goes on — Horstemeyer has a
corner filled with helmets from
MSU, North Dakota, Oregon,
and more. They all have one as-
pect that doesn’t make sense to
him: the center of gravity isn’t in
the middle.
Horstemeyer proves this by
turning a helmet upside down
and setting it on the concrete
floor. If the center of gravity
were in the middle, it would
stay on that point, but it does
not: each helmet tilts toward the
facemask, where the center of
gravity truly lies. The weight of
the head already places enough
torque on the neck — to make
no mention of the torque applied
by football’s contact — and he
sees no reason to amplify that
torque with off-balance weight.
He has designed the facemask
to bring that weight back to the
base of the helmet.
When MSU built CAVS, Hor-
stemeyer helped to introduce the
human element into the design of
car safety systems. He has made
a living making collisions safer
for humans, which suggests he
is a natural to help find way to
protect those who play collision
sports.

“Some of the kids have
never seen some of those
things. Last week, we had
one class taste beets, and
then plant beets. One class
tasted rutabaga, and then
planted seeds,” Schmidt
said, noting that a bit of
ranch dressing on almost
anything can tempt even
reluctant tasters.
First-grader Perse-
phone Kelley said, “We
got to plant a beet, and
we got to eat beets. It was
yummy.”
McLemore remarked,
“A lot of kids this age aren’t
going to eat some things
like spinach, but since
they’re growing it, they’re
going to take a little more
pride in it, and at least try
it.”
The lessons seem
to be getting through.
First-grader Rashad Jones
said, “I know that plants
need soil, wind, sun and
water; (the Garden Gran-
ny) sprayed us with water
like we were plants!”
Even with winter in the
offing, learning doesn’t
come to a halt. Lessons on
seeds, bark, evergreens,
mistletoe and “What Can
You See When the Leaves
Are Gone?” come to the
forefront.
“Not only is it about how
food grows, but we like for
the children to explore the
outdoors,” said Schmidt.
And the kids’ reaction
to all of it?
“They get absolutely
excited,” said first-grade
teacher Sara Gill. “They
cannot wait for when the
Garden Granny comes;
they all want to tell her
what they’ve learned.”
The SEED Garden pro-
vides a different learning
environment, showing
children that they can
learn wherever they are,
Gill added.
“It allows children
to make that real-world
connection between what
they’re seeing in books
and reading lessons, even
math lessons, to the things
around their world. That
encourages them to contin-
ue to explore their world.”
