Renovations expected for UI buildings Altgeld and Illini Hall may receive renovations in 2017 hours later the squirrel was captured. “It looked like World War III in there. It was just unbelievable,” Fireman said. “I have a bed in my office because I had a bad back. When I came back, it was all thrown out, all over the place. It wasn’t the squirrel, it was the fight with the squirrel because they had to fight with it.” This recent squirrel

On Nov. 23, Statistics Professor Karle Laska saw squirrel paws scrambling underneath the door of professor Ellen Fireman’s office in Illini Hall. She had seen the squirrel scramble into Fireman’s office the previous Friday, but didn’t expect the squirrel to be trapped in her colleague’s office for the whole weekend.

GWS promotes campus solidarity Recent events call for a safer campus BY CHRISTIN WATKINS STAFF REPORTER

Following a Black Student Solidarity rally and the creation of an Illini White Student Union, the Department of Gender and Women’s Studies looked to promote solidarity at the University. “I think solidarity means you recognize that you can have different positions on a particular topic, but that we find common ground,” said Karen Flynn, associate professor in GWS. From Dec. 1-3, GWS hosted solidarity hours “in support of students working for racial justice on our campus,” according to the event description. “Solidarity means people putting themselves out there to support you in some way,” said Terri Barnes, associate professor in GWS. “When you say ‘I support what you stand for or what you’re doing, and I want to go out of my way to show that.’” Students and faculty met in the GWS building, 1205 W. Nevada, to discuss current issues of discrimination and to provide a safe space for ideas and conversations about these problems. “We want to have this campus be a place where different groups of people speak

to their reality, in terms of what’s occurring, what’s happening on this campus,” Flynn said. Discussing the reality of discrimination on college campuses is essential to reducing it, she said. “We have to admit that racism is still current,” she said. “[It is] still much a part of our reality.” The solidarity hours were held two weeks after the creation of the ‘Illini White Student Union’ Facebook page Nov. 18. The page decried

“Recognition of existence sometimes, of the existence of these issues, can be really comforting,” he said. “Everybody’s not against you.” Allowing an open dialogue is also key, Barnes said. “I really believe in the power of discussion to educate people, to change people’s minds, to show people what they have in common,” she said. This allows people to collectively overcome differences, she said. “People can learn things together,” she said. “That’s a wonderful and a powerful thing. If there’s anything that’s going to save the world, it’s that.” Conversations can prevent the feelings of alienation that may lead to violence, Eldridge said. “I think communication is vital,” he said. “It comes to a boiling point where violence can happen. If people feel like they just don’t have any other way to express their emotions or feelings, it can result in violence.” Linking people through life experiences helps to reduce discrimination from differences, Flynn said. “I believe we have to teach people love,” she said.

Talks shed light on issues of undocumentation BY STEPHEN NYE STAFF WRITER

As students across the University face the stress posed by finals, term papers and group projects, an additional stress is placed on some students that constantly hangs over them: their immigration status. “We The People,” a dialogue on U.S. immigration history, was held Friday at Pennsylvania Avenue Residence Hall in cooperation with La Casa. Dr. Gioconda Guerra Pérez , director of La Casa, gave a lecture called

SEE SOLIDARITY | 3A

“Undocumented” about the evolution of undocumented immigration legislation in the U.S., and then held a brief question and answer section. The lecture spanned the Naturalization Act of 1790 to the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy, which was expanded in 2014. Brandon Rodgers, junior in LAS and a PAR residence assistant, helped organize the event with encouragement from several residents, including Jonathan Alanis, a freshman in DGS. “As a hispanic student, (undocumented status) is a topic that is important to me. I wanted to get the news out there,” said Alanis. Alanis said that students at the University don’t know about the experiences of

undocumented students, and has helped planning the event for about three weeks. Pérez hopes that the students walked away with a renewed interest and awareness about issues surrounding undocumented immigrants. “La Casa is happy to present to anyone interested ... I encourage anyone interested to get in contact with CASE, and to spread awareness for these issues,” Pérez said. “(Being undocumented) is the only crime in which, if your father commits a crime, the son or daughter has to pay the price.” The Coalition for Accessible Scholarships for Everyone is a group of students,

University student Leah Matchett named Marshall Scholar BY DIXITA LIMBACHIA STAFF WRITER

Leah Matchett ended up at the University by chance, but her experience on campus gave her the opportunity to become a Marshall Scholar. Matchett, a senior, double majoring in global studies and geology, is one of 32 students to be selected as a 2016 Marshall Scholar. The scholarship will give her the opportunity to pursue a postgraduate study at the University of Oxford. Originally from Grand Haven, Michigan, Matchett ended up at the University by accident. In her sophomore year of high school, Matchett won a Science

Olympiad event and won tuition to the University as the grand prize. Matchett initially applied to be a Schwarzman Scholar, a graduate program in China, but one of the advisors at the University’s National and International Scholarships Program encouraged her to apply to the Rhodes Scholarship based on the strengths of her application and the recommendations from professors. After going through preliminary interviews, one of the committee members on the board thought Matchett was an exceptional candidate and decided to endorse her for the Marshall Schol-

arship as well. She ended relations between the U.S. up receiving the Marshall and U.K., according to the instead of the Rhodes Schol- program’s website.

“Part of my role is to help students . . . with what happens after the degree.”

“There’s a lot to be learned from retrospective analysis,” she said. “It’s hard sometimes in the U.S. to think critically about our own policies and (think) about how we can improve them from a multinational perspective.” Tim Wedig , associate director in LAS Global Studies and Matchett’s mentor, really wants students to grasp the idea of how an advisor aids students throughout their four years. “As a faculty advisor, part of my role is to help students beyond this university, with what happens after the degree,” Wedig said. “I spend a lot of time

in my classes relating content to career paths to academic options and try to build that throughout their entire academic career experience.” He encouraged Matchett to apply for many different programs because of her variety of qualifications and “inspiring abilites”. “Every way I interact with Leah is amazing,” he said. “She is highly motivated, so, as a mentor, motivating her is never a problem,” Wedig said. “She’s always prepared and has the desire to explore different opportunities.”

The interior of the Mathematics Library in Altgeld Hall will soon be undergoing renovations.

FROM 1A

ALTGELD incident is another event in a history of Illini Hall’s difficulties with infrastructure. Illini Hall is one of the oldest buildings on the University campus. The Department of Mathematics and Statistics recently made a proposal requesting new renovations for Altgeld and Illini Hall. According to the proposal, “Neither building has seen significant renovation since 1965, while the face of public higher education has changed dramatically since then.” T he proposa l was announced to the entire department during the Statistics 30-year anniversary event on campus last November, Laska said. Laska said they plan to break ground for renovations on the two buildings in 2017. The renovations will likely take five years to complete. The new renovations plan for Illini Hall to be “an entirely new space for collaborative discovery and learning.” The plan details aren’t fully

dents “compete on an equal level with documented residents of the nation,” and earn scholarships to enable their education, according to the bill’s website. The bill would apply to the nearly 1,500 undocumented students who currently attend Illinois public universities. The University of Illinois at Chicago is an official supporter, alongside eight other public universities. Gorka Garcia, a junior in the College of Business, said that he attended the event to learn about the difference of immigration his-

Although the new renovations are still in a very early stage of development, Fireman already knows what she would like from new additions to her workspace. “What we’d really love is a Stats Center. We want person-to-person interaction,” she said. “There’s always those students who can’t learn online. What we would love is to have this space here.” Fireman’s hope for a Statistics Center is not outlined in the proposal. However, Laska is skeptic about the proposal itself. She believes the current uncertainty with the state’s budget could stall or eliminate the entire project. “We don’t even know if they’re going to happen with all the budget cuts from the University,” Laska said. “That’s one of the problems with the budget cuts is they have all these plans to renovate buildings, but then they have to be put on hold because, how are they going to fund them?”

Lone wolf terrorists confuse law enforcement BY CINDY CHANG AND RICHARD WINTON TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

In 2005, Torrance, Calif., police officers searched the apartment of two men suspected of robbing a gas station. There, the officers found a lengthy manifesto and a list of potential targets, including synagogues and military sites. They had stumbled on an Islamist terrorist cell in the advanced stages of an attack plan.The San Bernardino massacre, which killed 14 people, has focused new attention on “lone wolf” terrorists who plan attacks away from traditional high-profile targets without directly coordinating with others. While the FBI typically takes the lead in major terrorism investigations, local police officers and sheriff’s deputies are the initial line of defense — especially in the case of home-grown plotters. Wit h t hei r lo c a l intelligence and c on nect ions to t he communities they serve, police are often the first to pick up on clues that something is wrong — or to fortuitously come across a dangerous situation. Large agencies like the Los Angeles Police Department and Los Angeles County Sheriff ’s Department have sizable counterterrorism units that comb the Internet for suspicious postings, follow up on tips and cultivate contacts in the community. Neighbors or friends might notice strange behavior, an uptick in bulky package deliveries or changes to a person’s routine. Human intelligence is the key, and local authorities are more likely than their

But the challenges are daunting. Sometimes, as with the San Bernardino assailants Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik, even family members said they did not notice any warning signs. Federal authorities say Malik wrote a Facebook post pledging her allegiance to an Islamic State group, but there is no evidence so far that they were connected to a larger terror cell. “ S e l f- r a d i c a l i z a t i o n poses a tremendous problem, as it is hardest to detect,” Downing said. “For us, it has always been easier to detect a network group adversary, because someone is going to slip up

or hit a trip wire, versus a lone wolf.” At the LAPD, the CounterTerrorism and Special Operations Bureau’s 900 officers include some Muslims and several who speak who speak Arabic or Urdu. The bureau maintains relationships with local mosques and works closely with other law enforcement agencies, including the FBI. The LAPD’s version of the “If you see something, say something” program, which encourages residents to report suspected terrorist activity, has won praise but also raised concerns in recent years. In 2007, the LA PD scrapped a plan to map the city’s Muslim population amid an outcry from Muslim groups and civil libertarians. But law enforcement

officials say it is precisely those kinds of grass-roots leads that could stop the next terror plot. Officers are constantly checking out reports of suspicious activity, searching for the smallest of clues, Downing said. Chief Scott Edson, who oversees counter-terrorism at the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department, said residents should not hesitate to report anything out of the ordinary. “No one’s going to say you’re profiling if you report suspicious activity,” Edson said. “I think we just have to understand that in today’s climate, there’s nothing you can’t say. Give law enforcement an opportunity to listen to what you have to say, and let us legally determine whether there is something there or not.”

Supreme Court reconsiders voting principle

With the potential for a seismic shift in the political landscape of states hanging in the balance, the U.S. Supreme Court this week takes on a case that will test the framework of the “one person, one vote” principle that has defined political boundaries for generations. The court on Tuesday will hear arguments in a case from Texas that threatens to upend how states draw their political districts based on censusdriven overall population numbers — and could alter political influence in states such as California, where mush ro om i ng Latino populations in urban areas, including illegal immigrants and other noncitizens, play a key part in shaping political maps. Conservative groups have challenged the “one person, one vote” premise based on a simple argument that counting overall population, including those ineligible to vote, unfairly diminishes the power of citizens who are eligible to vote. They have urged the Supreme Court to invalidate the current system, which would force states to completely redraw local and state political districts using different factors and perhaps open the door to eventually reconfiguring congressional districts. The backdrop of this legal showdown is the increasingly supercharged p ol it ic a l t ug- of-wa r between Republicans and Democrats over voting regulations. A 2013 Supreme Court’s ruling gutted key provisions of the Voting Rights Act, and efforts have been made in many Republican-leaning states to enact Voter ID laws that critics say target minority voters inclined to vote Democratic. In the Texas case, two voters challenged how Texas draws state senate districts, arguing that they count for less in calculating those boundaries than ineligible voters used to assess total population numbers—whether noncitizens, children or even felons. Conservative groups have aligned with the challenge, arguing in Supreme Court briefs that the current system distorts the rights of nonvoters in the democratic process, particularly in states such as California, Texas and Florida, where larger numbers of noncitizens are counted in those census

figures. A three-judge federal court panel in Austin had rejected the two voters’ claim, and election law experts were surprised in May when the high court agreed to take the case. Civil rights groups and 22 states, including California, have warned the Supreme Court of dire consequences if the current method is altered, arguing that politicians represent all people, not just those who vote. Critics of the Texas challenge, including the Democratic National Committee, suggest the case is a thinly veiled part of Republican efforts to undercut minority voting numbers. In large part, the critics are banking on the Supreme Court’s own words in a 1964 ruling that upheld the oneperson, one vote concept by saying “legislators represent people, not trees or acres.” Despite the undercurrent of issues related to immigration and noncitizens, these groups note that other nonvoting blocs, notably children, tend to be represented heavily in census numbers in large urban areas and would lose protection if the system changed. Several cities, including Los Angeles and San Francisco, have sided with Texas in the case, saying that relying only on eligible voters “would make the nation’s cities and large urban areas the losers.” The Obama administration also backs the current system, saying it is the only practical and constitutional way to draw political boundaries. For a state like California, a Supreme Court ruling upending the current one person, one vote system would not turn the heavily Democratic state Repbulican. But experts say it could shift a few legislative seats in a way that could alter state politics and tinker with local political boundaries. And while the U.S. Constitution requires use of total population in apportioning seats in Congress among states, a ruling for the plaintiffs could lead to a later challenge to how congressional districts are carved up within states. Latino advocacy groups also worry it would be unfair in areas where noncitizen immigrants might not get equal treatment from their political representatives.

EDITORIAL University’s responses to student needs must be more immediate

A

ttending a large university can cause some students to miss out on the niche educational benefits that a small school may provide, such as closer relationships with professors or a feeling of attention paid to them. While there are amazing aspects to attending larger universities, there is a tendency to feel as if our voices are not heard. However, when students in the Gender and Women’s Studies department expressed the desire for a safe space following feelings of hate at the University spurred by the Illini White Student Union Facebook page, this was not the case. Rather than getting embattled in red-tape or logistical issues, GWS quickly presented the safe space students asked for. Rather than having to wait an extended period of time, as usual, for the University’s solution — if a tangible one were to be offered at all — students were able to immediately get the attention they needed. This is a great step for a multitude of reasons, but one reason in particular is that it shows the University directly responding to a campus need. The Gender and Women’s Studies Department saw a way they could make the safe space available and they made it simple by just doing it. They put the needs of students above everything else. We need fast, direct responses to student needs more on our campus. When students make requests from our administrators and our university, most of the time, we aren’t expressing extravagant desires. We simply want to see effort put into a speedy but effective solution, such as this solidarity space. There shouldn’t be excuses; this should be easily replicable within other university arenas, especially when the budget doesn’t have to be affected to do many of the things we’re asking for. For example, a forum could have easily been held after the announcement that students may have to refund their spring MAP grants. The forum could have served to inform those affected students of their options following the announcement. Rather than presenting an issue and leaving students to their own devices, it would have been much more impactful and helpful to prove that the concern and need of students was heard more than a simple Massmail statement. It is crucially important for current students to feel cared about, but it’s also important for potential future students to see that the University will care about them if they come here as well. For more technical, research based programs or programs larger in size at the University, these issues may be exacerbated compared to progressive, discussion based programs such as GWS, a pillar of which is understanding and acceptance. Still, there are students who need support and need to be heard in every field of study at the University. Leadership in each program needs to take student need into account more often and learn how to quickly respond to it with effective solutions. Frequently, when it comes to students, thinking outside of the box is not what is most important, rather, it’s thinking quickly and causally after we voice concerns, and the University must prove they can do that for us.

Islamophobia can’t discourage Muslims SABA IMRAM Opinions columnist

In

light of recent terrorist attacks, there’s a heightened sense of fear and an increased circulation of anti-Muslim rhetoric being perpetuated by both politicians and everyday citizens. As stories about ISIS swamp major news outlets, it seems as if some people have begun pointing their fingers toward ordinary Muslim Americans in their neighborhoods, sometimes even creating unfounded accusations of bomb-making or terrorist involvement. Perhaps for lack of a better education on this topic and limited exposure to certain minority groups, there is a notion being passed around within the western world that people who wear a hijab, grow their beards out and wear white topis are also suicide bombers. Recently, we’ve had to hear stories more and more frequently about hate crimes being committed against Muslims in America and elsewhere in the western world. During Thanksgiving dinner this past week, my aunts and uncles started talking about the recent bombings in Paris and what it means for us Muslims in America. My aunt suggested to me that Muslim girls my age shouldn’t be wearing their hijabs outside because it welcomes unnecessary harassment. Instead, they should take off their hijabs and carry on like average American citizens, as this would be the best way to protect ourselves. I can’t help but disagree. The best way to combat the wave of negative association with being Muslim is to stand our ground, exhibit pride in being Muslim Americans and show people that we are not terrorists. People who are Muslim are students, doctors, taxi drivers, lawyers, cashiers and

This annual event at the University is sponsored by the UIUC Muslim Students Association and includes many events that teach students about Muslim culture. Programs such as this educate people about the lifestyles of people who are Muslim, which can hopefully also prevent discrimination. engineers. We are everyday Americans, which is oftentimes lost in the rhetoric of fear and hate flooding us by politicians and uninformed masses. That said, my aunt’s concerns aren’t irrational. It’s difficult to embrace being a Muslim in today’s climate. Although more people today are realizing that Muslim does not equal terrorist, there still exists a faction of the public that is unaware or uneducated. In Toronto, Ontario, two women wearing hijabs were harassed, pushed around and called terrorists by two men and a woman on the downtown subway. A mosque in St. Petersburg, Florida was threatened last month when a man left a voicemail saying that he would “firebomb” Muslims and “shoot whoever’s there on sight in the head. I don’t care if they’re (expletive) 2

years old or 100.” Because of incidents such as these, Muslims are becoming more and more afraid of attending prayers and practicing their religion because of the possibility that a gunman might show up to their place of worship or they might be accosted in the streets. These dangers exist; that is incontrovertible. And it doesn’t help when a very prominent public figure in our country, Donald Trump, says at a political rally that Muslims in America should be documented in a database and forced to wear badges to identify themselves in public. Trump’s vision of Muslim IDs bear a ghostly resemblance to how the Star of David badges served Jews in prewar Germany. Statements such as Trump’s only serve to further alienate people from Muslim Americans and push us further into No anti-Muslim hate worlds of intolergroups existed in 2009, ance and hatred. but there are currently With dialog such 16 registered by the as this, ordinary Southern Poverty Center. citizens will come to view Muslims Reported incidents of anti-islamic and Americans crimes shot up 1,600% in 2001 with a dichotomy compared with the number of that suggests that incidents in 2000. the two are separate and unequal. anti-muslim hate groups I recognize there are valMORGAN CLEARY THE DAILY ILLINI id concerns for

everybody’s safety, and I recognize that it’s a precarious time to be a Muslim in a western country. But especially during these times, it’s better to stand together in solidarity than to cower and hide for safety. A commonality amongst the people who are spreading anti-Muslims statements is that they’re making generalizations about who Muslims are. It’s very likely that they don’t understand who Muslims in America actually are, and that’s why it is so important now to stand up for ourselves. Perhaps it’s idealistic, but I believe that the best way to fight for acceptance is to remain proud of ourselves. Though it’s an obvious and worn-out statement, the actions of a few should not dictate the fates of the majority. People shouldn’t judge Muslims as a whole because of what radical extremists have done in the East. Though I don’t wear the hijab for my own personal and spiritual reasons, I am a Muslim. And I was born in Chicago, I’ve gone to public schools and now I’m attending a state university. I am an American. My hope is that my fellow Americans might come to see that it is possible to be both.

Cold weather makes students say ‘Ugg’ LEAH PEARLMAN Opinions columnist

I

t’s officially cold out. And I’ve decided it’s official because I had to wear tights with my romper out the other night. And yes, I owned that look, but it made me see style versus sensibility in a whole new light: Why downplay the cold for the sake of a good Facebook picture? Students here at the University bear winter weather for a long stretch of our school year. And the entire time you can witness everyone ignoring this by dressing completely inappropriately for the freezing cold temperatures. The beginning of this cold season additionally lends itself to a complete wardrobe change. Along with the sweaters, parkas and beanies we drag up to campus, after a week off for Thanksgiving we also bring our winter shoes. For lots of University girls, this entails our Ugg boots. These largely ridiculed boots can be seen on a majority of girls’ feet as you look around campus. In 2013, a study was done by shopping website Beso by Bizrate Insights that found more than a quarter of Ameri-

can women own a pair of the boots. The Ugg is a very common piece found in the back of most girls’ closets. They have always been a very “basic” shoe of choice and mocked for being ugly and ruining fashion. As a freshman I have already seen the huge difference between high school and college fashion. I haven’t caught too many people donning anything past what could pass as paja-

Ugg boots are the sensible shoes for us at the University. “They are the best practical shoe . . . because they can handle the slush on sidewalks and curbs while keeping your feet warm,” said André Leon Talley, a contributing editor at Vogue magazine, on the practicality of the boot. In fact, many stylish celebrities have admitted to wearing and liking these practical boots. Alexa Chung

These differences created a big transformation in my life as a girl not used to walking out of the door in sweatpants to see other human beings. However, we are here to learn. And in what better garb is this best done than in comfortable and sensible wear.

tweeted a picture of her Ugg-encased feet in 2013 and captioned it: “My deepest apologies.” However, her guilty pleasure is nothing to feel guilty about or apologize for. There’s no shame in choosing sensible shoes over stylish ones. Ugg boots are very warm, even for mid-January breezes when you may have to hustle from Altgeld to the Armory in ten minutes. Also, many fraternities and sorori-

ties do not salt their sidewalks, leaving the ice and snow for any passerby to slip on. The Uggs grip is great for getting through these potential slips on the way to class. It still might be hard for some fashionistas to get on board and go sensible, especially with terrible memories of wearing the puzzling combination of tall Ugg boots and jean mini skirts in middle school. As far as this cold freshman is concerned, I am beyond OK with slipping into my old, classic chestnut pair. And I’m sure many other Ugg-owning students at the University would agree. “I don’t like Uggs because I think they are ugly but they are very comfortable and warm. I guess they’re kind of like Crocs because people say they are very comfortable, but they look stupid,” said Karen Wang a freshman in LAS. Uggs mix a whole lot of function with a slight amount of fashion. And I am okay with giving up some trendiness for a warm and comfy day of walking around campus. But don’t get me wrong — you will never see me stepping into a Croc, ever. I don’t cross the Croc line.

FURNITURE

coming out of ripped vinyl, broken legs and extremely loose wooden skeletons, it’s visibly clear that some sort of update was necessary. Although wear and tear comes with natural evolution from years of usage, repairs are happening faster, and modern technology has students plugged in to phones and computers, becoming more unaware of ripping, scratching and dirtying the furniture. “Students don’t take care of the furniture like they used to,” Collom said. But to Paul Kapp, associate professor of Architecture, furnishings for traditional and non-traditional use are being manufactured today in reaction to younger generations. “The way students (relax, and their social interaction) has changed,” Kapp said. “Students aren’t using typewriters anymore, they’re using laptops. Chairs are more moveable and study habits have changed. Modern day furniture has to play off that particular style.” Kapp also believes that while it’s important to update furniture with the way students congregate, it is also of equal importance to maintain the traditional aesthetic of what the Union represents, something that many believe was not taken into consideration when choosing the cur-

rent furniture. “There was a purpose and a spirit for the way (University buildings) were (originally) furnished,” Kapp said. “Making subtle changes, those are moments which multiple generations have experienced. Transgenerational memory is important. You just miss some of the ambience now.” Original furniture is everywhere on the University campus. Libraries, classrooms, hallways, random rooms scattered throughout campus — pieces that make up a time capsule of styles that encapsulate the decades of aesthetic transformation. Wingback chairs and loveseats accented with nailhead trim, details seen in the previous Union furniture, were conducive to the Colonial Revival architectural style of the building, according to Kapp. Now, without any structural interior updates to the Main Lounge of the Union, the modernity of the new orange and blue chairs have individuals such as Kapp scratching their heads. “When the state doesn’t have a budget, that’s when you get creative,” Kapp said. Busey-Evans residence hall, built in 1916, has purposely kept the architectural Georgian Revival integrity of the building distinguished with the interior and furnishings. Melissa Marriott, interior decorator for Housing, furnished the majority of

Busey-Evans with its original furniture restored by the Furniture Shop. In 2005, Busey-Evans lounge underwent renovations to update the design of the room to make it conducive with modern day accessibility, but also maintaining the integrity of the building. To achieve the original style, Marriott pulled historical photos of the residence hall from the Student Life Archives, making sure the changes weren’t drastically different. “We keep in tune with the building, but also blend the old with the new,” Marriott said. “I don’t think we could survive in Housing without the Furniture Shop. They save us a lot of money long term.” The longevity of the furniture in Busey-Evans, some of which is over 100 years old, is not only important to minimizing University waste, but exposes students to the long, rich history that the University was founded on. In the University President’s House, a 14,000-square-foot Georgian Revival home completed in 1931, the furnishings were specially made by Chicago’s Watson and Boaler Co. The house came with a novel-sized hardcover book, each page enclosing a single, hand-drawn sketch of a piece of furniture, the name of the piece and what room it was intended for.

President’s House, walked through the entirety of the home, each page she turned revealed a piece that was sitting in front of her, still in use and in mint condition. Although the furniture used in the home does not receive near the amount of use that the residence hall and Union furniture receives, the style has remained primitive and the condition presents itself as untouched. “Older furniture can be repaired whereas most new pieces cannot,” Collom said. “They can be strengthened from within, which is adding to the longevity of the piece, and any new parts needed are made in our fully furnished Mill Shop. Here at the University, if we are truly geared for a greener tomorrow, then Restore, Recycle and Reuse should ultimately be the methodology of today.” When the Furniture Shop

became aware of the Union purchasing new lounge seating from an outside source, Kimball Office, Collom said they felt let down. “Knowing that if we had more of an opportunity to choose our own fabrics, allowed to put our own personal spin on what they have, we could showcase their entryways to give it the ‘Wow’ factor,” Collom said. “Understandably, they didn’t want the building to become old and stuffy feeling like a museum where everyone was afraid to sit on anything, but perhaps the location they chose for the ‘new, modern’ furniture could have been planned (in) a way to better blend the old (with the) new.” According to Guth and Salzman, the change of aesthetic was what the students wanted, a student opinion heard from the president of the Illini Union Board, Jaylin

Movie review: Chi-Raq makes its point — repeatedly BY STEVEN REA

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

There’s a lot of sermonizing going on in Spike Lee’s “Chi-Raq,” although only about five minutes’ worth of it comes from the pulpit. There, John Cusack in the role of a Chicago preacher, the only white man in his parish (it’s explained), rails against gun violence and a system rigged against the black, poor and disenfranchised. Adapted from the trusty Greek satire “Lysistrata,” by Aristophanes, about women withholding sex from men until they stop killing one another, “Chi-Raq” couldn’t be more relevant right now: Chicago, gang killings, kids caught in the cross fire, cops viewed warily by the community they’re supposed to serve. It’s in the headlines, not just in Chicago, but in what one of the rappers in Lee’s rhyming screenplay calls “Bodymore, Murderland” and in “Killadelphia.” It’s “the reality-TV urban murder show,” says Cusack’s Father Corridan, getting an amen from his flock before they have to get up and go outside again, back into the fray. Ramped up like a Broadway musical, and emceed in single-handed Greek chorus-style by Samuel L. Jackson — wearing natty suits and swinging

his walking stick like Fred Astaire — “Chi-Raq” stars Teyonah Parris as Lysistrata, the sister who gets the idea to abstain until the brothers agree to stop the pain. Lysistrata has “a mind like Einstein and a truly luscious behind,” says Jackson, but let’s just pretend he didn’t say that. After a little girl is found in a pool of blood — victim of a gunfight between rival gangs — Lysistrata entreats the women of the South Side to join her abstinence campaign. Her man, the gangsta rapper Chi-Raq (Nick Cannon), is the first to suffer the consequences. The sex strike takes off, and the women take to a giant armory, the better to stage elaborate dance numbers. Take the Chi-Lites’ “Oh Girl,” for instance, performed by a troop of chorines in chastity belts. Outside, angry males congregate, confused. The media assemble. Law enforcement gets into SWAT mode. Angela Bassett, Dave Chappelle, Jennifer Hudson, and Wesley Snipes join the throng.

SITTING ON A

REUPHOLSTERED TIME CAPSULE OF TRADITION BY FRANCES WELCH STAFF WRITER

The warehouse walls are lined with metal racks, bright with color from bolts of fabric rolled onto cardboard tubes; the sound of the upholstery sewing machine resonates off every surface. A wobbly leg on a wingback chair will soon be screwed tight and a broken, wooden underbelly glued back together. The wear and tear on each University-owned piece of furniture will eventually be hand-fixed. The art of upholstering is becoming a rarity. Younger generations continue to prefer buying new products rather than restoring the craftsmanship that molded their original forms. The University Furniture Shop, once home to 13 reupholsterers and restorers, has dwindled down to less than five. Established in 1943 by a man named Bill Johnson, the Furniture Shop would soon become the University’s main upholstery and repair hub. Following World War II, the University no longer was able to provide funds for replacing furniture, instead opting for repairs. The furniture restorers at Johnson’s shop became responsible for renovating and reupholstering almost every piece of furniture on campus — in residence halls, office desks and chairs, classroom furniture, lounge furnishings, University antiques and

various other upholstery and renovation work. All of which are still responsibilities of the shop today. The Furniture Shop is unique compared to its counterparts that make up the remaining shops in Facilities & Services. “Most of us are third-generation reupholsterers. It’s a family trade,” said Tracy Collom, the University Furniture Shop Supervisor. “I’ve been doing this since I was 12, but it’s a dying art.” It’s a reality that is tough to swallow for Collom, who has taken notice to the Union not utilizing the Furniture Shop that helps maintain original pieces, but instead are now buying new. This past year, the Union replaced all old furniture in the main lounge, an area that according to David Guth, assistant director for Facilities at the Illini Union, and Rebecca Salzman, assistant to the director of the Illini Union, needed updating immediately. Guth said the majority of the previous furniture had lasted since the 1960’s, but wouldn’t have been possible without the Furniture Shop reupholstering and refurbishing each piece. “It’s the living room of the campus,” Salzman said, comparing the foot-traffic of the Union to that of a major train station. Any day of the week between 7 a.m. and midnight, couches and chairs

will be in use almost 100 percent of the time. Rooms such as the South Lounge and Pine Lounge double as event rooms, where the furniture is stacked and moved elsewhere, sometimes twice or more in a day. To sustain this, the durability of the furniture is crucial, but its material makeup is of equal importance. The material needs to be readily accessible, since the lifespan of a new piece is about five to seven years before a repair needs to be made. But the longevity of the skeleton of new, manufactured furniture is more complex than it used to be. It’s designed to be replaced with an entirely new piece of furniture, rather than a small limb, neither price effective or eco-friendly in the long run.

To play devil’s advocate, Guth brought up an important counterpoint that furniture can only endure so much refurbishing until it breaks down indefinitely. Similar to that of the human body, it can only be restructured so many times until it isn’t physically possible to restore anymore. The rationale behind purchasing new furniture was realistic. If one were to take a trip down to the basement of the Union, where the previous furniture is being stored, it’s hard to grasp that the groupings of mismatched loveseats and club chairs were sitting in the main lounge of the Union less than a year ago.

Graduating dance seniors perform fall thesis concert BY MARIAH SCHAEFER STAFF WRITER

T

he audience strolled into Dance Rehearsal Krannert long before the concert started on the second floor of the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts. Family, friends and dance enthusiasts were there for one reason: to watch the December-graduating seniors in the University’s department of dance perform their final theses. The five seniors, Skylar Males, Ricky Perry, Justin Yeung, Charles Gowin and Francesca Burns, presented the show “Stripped” on Friday and Saturday. A little after the scheduled 7:30 p.m. time, a smiling woman announced the start of the concert. The lights were cut out, and the friendly chatter ceased with the darkness. A tension in the audience arose as they waited for the first performance, “Androgynistic,” which was choreographed by Skylar Males. As the lights faded back in, five dancers were

already on stage. Wearing neutral colored clothes and no shoes, the dancers moved in what seemed to be an obviously organized, yet seemingly haphazard way. They rolled on the floor, ran around the whole stage and hugged each other without facial expression. The audience was quiet. An electronic beat blasted in the background, but it faded in and out throughout the performance. At one point, the dancers huddled together and synchronized their movements.

Successful weekend leads Illini to Sweet Sixteen BY DANIEL DEXTER STAFF WRITER

After dropping the first set against Louisville in a hostile environment, Illinois volleyball head coach Kevin Hambly had a message for his team: Calm down. Frantic play has been a cause for concern for the Illini over the course of an up-and-down regular season. But in their secondround NCAA tournament matchup with the Cardinals on Saturday night in Louisville, Illinois was able to right the ship and took three straight games to win the match (15-25, 25-22, 25-18, 27-25). “I think (Louisville) came out hot and the energy and the crowd was behind them,” Hambly said. “I thought we were a little bit nervous. It was tight and competitive, and we had to work through that emotionally. I thought we turned the tide in the second set though.” The team entered the match coming off a sweep Friday of first-round opponent Southern Illinois (2519, 25-15, 26-24). Setter Jordyn Poulter said the Salukis played a fast style offense the Illini were unaccustomed to playing against. Because of that, Poulter believes the team found itself out of rhythm to start the match against the Cardinals, which led to several mistimed blocks. Once the team found its momentum in the second set, it relied heavily on the stellar play of outside hitter Jocelynn Birks. The senior racked up a seasonhigh 26 kills off a .426 hitting percentage. Hambly said it was one of the best games he has

Volleyball weekend

Illinois 3, SIU 0 Illinois 3, Louisville1 Summary: Illinois powers through the opening two rounds behind the stellar play of senior leader Jocelynn Birks. Key player: Outside hitter Jocelynn Birks recorded a season-high 26 kills and 10 digs against Louisville. Quote of the game: seen from Birks. He particularly praised her leadership in the huddle, which helped calm the team down when it was facing adversity after the first set. “I think it was one of the best matches I have ever seen her play from top to bottom,” Hambly said. “She played inspired . . . She kept us calm and was saying the right things in the moment. That’s a big deal. I thought she did a good job of that all weekend.” The Illini maintained steady leads throughout the second and third sets, hitting above .300 in both. It looked like the team would be able to finish the match in similar fashion in the third set, but the desperate Lousiville team went on a 5-0 run after being down 24-21. Poulter said the team had been in similar situations before, and had trouble ending the set once its opponent gained the momentum. Fortunately for the Illini, a pair of blocks from freshmen Poulter and Ali Bastianelli sealed the victory and destroyed the home crowd’s hope of a comeback. “Their crowd was getting

Poulter: “It could have been really easy for us to give up there and that probably would have transpired into the fifth set. Who knows what would have happened in that? Even though we were struggling, we focused on ourselves and were able to close out the set.” Up next: Minnesota, Friday, Des Moines, Iowa, 5 p.m. really into it. It could have been really easy for us to give up there and that probably would have transpired into the fifth set,” Poulter said. “Who knows what would have happened in that? Even though we were struggling, we focused on ourselves and were able to close out the set.” The team will move onto the Sweet Sixteen to take on Big Ten champion and national No. 2 seed Minnesota in Des Moines, Iowa. It will be the third straight year that Hambly’s team has reached this point in the tournament. With a chance to redeem its underwhelming conference play, the head coach is interested to see if his team can achieve its full potential this Friday. “I think that the Sweet Sixteen is the baseline for this team,” Hambly said. “I think that if we didn’t make the Sweet Sixteen, we would have felt like we failed. I think that’s the benchmark of where we want to be. We will see if we can reach our potential moving forward.”

Illini fall short of bowl bid, Big Ten well-represented in bowls BY CHARLOTTE CARROLL STAFF WRITER

TYLER COURTNEY THE DAILY ILLINI

Head coach Bill Cubit watches his seniors line up to be honored on Senior Day before the game against Northwestern at Soldier Field Nov. 28.

Illinois football will not be going bowling this year. Though the Illini finished with a 5-7 record, there was a chance the team could reach a bowl game because of the lack of teams with six wins. In the end, 77 teams with six wins were eligible to fill 80 bowl spots. The NCAA announced last week it would use school’s academic progress rate to determine which teams would be eligible to fill the remaining spots. Nebraska led the group of 5-7 teams at 985, followed by Missouri at 976, Minnesota and San Jose State at 975 and Illinois and Rice at 973. Mis-

souri announced it would decline a bowl game due to its coaching transition. Kansas State and Georgia State both won their games Saturday, earning six wins and a bowl spot. Nebraska, Minnesota and San Jose State will be heading to bowl games because of their APR rankings. The Big Ten has 10 teams heading to bowl games this year, including Nebraska and Minnesota. Six teams are ranked in the AP top25 poll. No. 3 Michigan State will be looking for the College Football Playoff title when it faces No. 2 Alabama in the Cotton Bowl Classic national semifinal.

Last year’s national champions, Ohio State, will play Notre Dame in the Fiesta Bowl. Iowa will take on Stanford in the Rose Bowl Game and Michigan will play Florida in the Citrus Bowl. Northwestern will face Tennessee in the Outback Bowl, Wisconsin will play USC in the Holiday Bowl, Indiana will play Duke in the Pinstripe Bowl, Minnesota will play Central Michigan in the Quick Lane Bowl, Penn State will face Georgia in the TaxSlayer Bowl and Nebraska will play UCLA in the Foster Farms Bowl.

Women’s basketball beats Lehigh in first game back at State Farm Center BY HUNTER WARNING STAFF WRITER

Despite its strong defensive play, Illinois found itself up by only three points at halftime against Lehigh on Sunday. Then, Kyley Simmons started to find a rhythm and finished the game with 21 points — all of which came from behind the arc. The senior guard credited her teammates for getting her open looks late in the game. “Chatrice (White) sets those awesome screens for me, and when you have a big girl that can set those screens and also be a threat inside and outside for you it just really opens up a lot more for me,” Simmons said. “I got in the gym, shot with coach after the Miami game and just believed.” Illinois shot 45 percent from the field. White scored 17 points and freshman guard Cierra Rice added 12. White said when Simmons starts to get going offensively, the team is affected on both sides of the court. “It’s great for us in transitioning into defense and we’re ready to get a stop,” White said. ”(Then), we’re ready to get into it.” On the other side of the ball, the Illini shut down Lehigh’s top scorer Lexi Martins, limiting her to

three points in the first half and 14 overall on 4-of11 shooting. Illinois head coach Matt Bollant said limiting Martins’ and Quinci Mann’s — another one of Lehigh’s top contributors — impact was key for his team. “We knew those two post players were their leading scorers and they’re good players and they played like it today,” Bollant said of Martins and Mann. “They (combined for) 23 points and 28 rebounds.” A big reason for Illinois’ defensive stand in the second half was the play of freshman Alex Wittinger, who finished with six rebounds and a career-best six blocks. “I don’t think that they’ve seen any girls that can jump and grab the rim like Alex can,” Bollant said. “Her length and athleticism, I think, made a difference for us.” The win was the program’s first win in the newly renovated State Farm Center — its first set of home games were played at Parkland College. “I think they were kind of over excited, and think that kind of takes your energy. We didn’t quite seem to have the same life to start that game,” Bollant said. “I think the players love it. It’s

Hockey goes 1-1 against Robert Morris Illini win 3-2 in overtime on Friday, lose 4-3 on Saturday BY ETHAN SWANSON STAFF WRITER

The Illinois hockey team may have brought up more questions than it answered in its weekend series at Robert Morris University. The Illini (11-6-3) missed an opportunity to make a major move in the conference standings playing an Eagles team (13-7-1) that was ranked last in the CSCHL. Instead of notching four points toward the league with a series sweep and potential rising as high as second in the conference, Illinois barely squeaked away with two points with an overtime win Friday and loss Saturday to stay stagnant at second-to-last in conference and No. 24 in the ACHA. “Our losses aren’t a result of a lack of effort,” said head coach Nick Fabbrini. “We do a lot to make the game hard on ourselves: If we just stick to making the easy play, we’re a good hockey team. It’s hard to get the sweep, especially in conference play, but we needed these games.” In Friday’s matchup, the Illini nearly gave up a two-goal lead. If not for forward James Mcging switching roles from

assist-man to scorer, the Illini could have gone home winless. Mcging opened up the series scoring Friday with a first period goal, and senior captain Joe Olen lit the lamp again for the Illini 12 minutes into the second period. Going into the third period, the Illini defense looked stout, not giving up a single goal on five Eagle power play opportunities while goalie Joe Olen recorded 33 saves. “Joe is one of the best goalies in the nation,” said defenseman Austin Zima. “It’s easy for our defense to play free and aggressive when we know we have a brick wall behind us.” However, Robert Morris managed to rattle off two unanswered goals in the final period to send the game into overtime. In the Illini’s sixth overtime period of the season, Mcging wasted no time calming Illini fans’ nerves as he scored the game-winning goal just 58 seconds into the overtime period to give Illinois the 3-2 win. “Mcging is a big-time player and probably one of the best skaters in the country,” said left-wing Eric Cruickshank. “Usually he’s the one setting me up, so it was cool to see him take the shots for a change.” On Saturday, it was Illinois that made a valiant comeback effort. Robert Morris broke the floodgates open, rattling off 43 shots on goal on the Illini defense despite Illinois skaters registering under 15 minutes in the penalty box, giving

Illinois vs. Robert Morris

Summary: After an overtime win on Friday, the Illini could not pull off the comeback Saturday, splitting a two game series with Robert Morris and missing an opportunity to move up the CSCHL standings Key performer: James Mcging scored the gamewinning goal in overtime Friday and added a goal and an assist in Saturday’s game. Hidden stat: In Saturday’s game, Illinois managed to spend less time in the penalty box than the team’s 15 minute per game average coming into the weekend. Next: Dec. 11-12 vs. Western Michigan the Eagles a 4-1 lead a minute into the third period. Cruickshank, the Illini point leader, led the charge for Illinois as he scored just minutes after the fourth Eagle goal. Mcging managed to find the net for his third time over the weekend just eight minutes into final period play to bring the Illini within one score. That would be the final goal scored in the game by either team, as the furious Illini comeback fell short and they left the arena with a 4-3 loss.

Kentucky senior signs with Illinois women’s golf team Nowlin signs letter of intent to join team in fall 2016 BY RYAN WILSON STAFF WRITER

When Tristyn Nowlin’s dad brought his 8-year-old daughter to a summer junior golf clinic at the Gibson Bay Golf Course in Richmond, Kentucky, PGA golf coach Jason Eberle noticed Tristyn immediately stood out from the other golfers. “Of all the junior golfers we’ve had at our golf course, she’s probably the best, most dedicated at practicing golf,” Eberle said. That dedication and focus paid off. Nowlin, now a senior at Madison Central High School in Kentucky, signed the letter of intent Nov. 13 to join the Illinois women’s golf team in the fall of 2016 on a golf scholarship. She chose Illinois over Kentucky, Eastern Kentucky University and Western Kentucky due to the Fighting Illini’s “incomparable” Demirjian Golf Practice Facility with heated bays and different kinds of grasses, she told the Richmond Register. “We are thrilled to welcome Tristyn and her parents to the Fighting Illini family,” said Illinois head coach Renee Slone in a press release. Nowlin will bring mental stability with her to Illinois. Nowlin does not stress her poor shots or get too excited on the better ones. She started the first two holes of the 2015 American Junior Golf Association Championship at 3-over. But she came back and finished in third

at 2-under. “That just goes to show that she didn’t let a rough start affect her in any way,” Slone said. “In fact, it may have been motivation.” Nowlin also will bring consistency to Illinois. She once made six straight birdies in an AJGA event in the summer of 2014. “She is extremely consistent at a game that’s very, very difficult to be able to be consistent,” Eberle, a professional golfer for 21 years, said. “She just hits the ball about the same way every time.” Nowlin won two Region 7 championships and placed in the top five

three times in two seasons with the AJGA. She is ninth in the 2016 class of the AJGA Polo Golf Rankings, which helped her become one of 48 girls from 21 states, China, Thailand and Japan to earn the 2015 Rolex Junior All-American by the American Junior Golf Association. Nowlin led Madison Central to its first-ever state title after shooting a 67 in the final round of the

2015 Kentucky High School State Championship. “So many of her teammates followed her lead and have seen what she has done,” Slone said. “It’s played a large role in the team being so successful.” Despite the accomplishments, Slone said Nowlin needs to spend her senior year of high school improving her shots from 125 yards from the hole and in. Nowlin also needs to become stronger. High school golfers — with their varied skill levels from beginner to near-college level — play on shorter courses than those at the collegiate level. But even then, Nowlin brings national experience to the Fighting Illini. Slone started recruiting Nowlin in 2013. And last January, Nowlin verbally committed to join Illinois. “Usually during the high school season and the summer season you are kind of stressed, worrying about, ‘Is this coach watching? What if I have a bad day?” Nowlin told the Richmond Register in January. “It’s good to have that off my chest and just play now.” Katherine Hepler is the only Illinois women’s golfer to graduate after this season. Stephanie Miller and Emily Joers are expected to graduate after next season. The Illinois women’s golf team finished in the top 10 at four of its five tournaments this fall. Nowlin, however, tied for second and won and finished third in her last three tournaments, respectively. “I am very happy for her and her family,” Eberle said. “I’m very proud.”

Blackhawks defeat Blues 5-3 in sled hockey game Blues goalie Steve Cash out against Blackhawks BY RYAN WILSON STAFF WRITER

At Illinois’ Ice Arena Saturday night, fans were beating the glass like a drum and screaming their favorite players’ names as they watched the Chicago Blackhawks beat the St. Louis Blues, 5-3. It seemed like most hockey games, except the players — in their teams’ respective NHL uniforms and helmets — sat on double-blade sledges and propelled themselves with two sticks, each with one spike end for pushing and the other for hitting. They push the sledges around the ice like paddling kayaks across water. It was a game of sled hockey. It’s a sport for athletes with disabilities. There is a USA sled hockey team as well as 52 other teams in America — some of which are through hospitals or parasports facilities. The Blackhawks are from the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, while the Blues are from the Disabled Athlete Sports Association (DASA) in St. Louis.

Sled hockey follows the same rules set by the International Ice Hockey Federation. The teams are also affiliated with the NHL. Saturday’s game was tied, 3-3, after a St. Louis goal with 8:43 left in the third period. But within the next six minutes, Chicago found some holes in the Blues’ defense and scored twice, resulting in what Blues coach Ken Amsler called a “mad dash to score.” Chicago scored first in the game, after Matt Amos’ goal to the left side of the net in the first period. The team then scored two more goals in the next five minutes of the second period to take a 3-0 lead. St. Louis finally scored at the 6:57 mark of that same period, and then five minutes later the team scored again off a shot by Trevor Bunca from the neutral zone that brought his team within one goal of Chicago. Blues goalie Steve Cash, who Blackhawks coach Bob Roybal said is “arguably the best goalie in the world,” did not play. If Cash had played, Roybal said the end result might have been different. Roybal’s team rarely beats the Blues, but because the game was an exhibition and St. Louis was without Cash, Saturday’s end result was unusual.

South Carolina chooses new head football coach BY JOSH KENDALL TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Will Muschamp’s second chance will come at South Carolina. The Gamecocks have agreed to a deal that will make the 44-year-old Muschamp the 33rd head football coach in South Carolina football history, a source with direct knowledge of the negotiations told The State on Sunday morning. Like the man he is replacing, Muschamp last was a head coach at the University of Florida. Unlike Steve Spurrier, who created the Gamecocks opening when he resigned in October after 10-and-a-half seasons, Muschamp did not leave Florida of his own accord. He was fired following the 2014 season with a 28-21 overall record . The search for Spurrier’s replacement, which lasted 54 days, took many turns along the way. At one point, Houston head coach Tom Herman and Alabama defensive coordinator Kirby Smart were the top targets, but Herman signed a new contract with the Cougars at twice his previous salary and Smart has agreed to become Georgia’s next head coach. The Gamecocks also interviewed interim head coach Shawn Elliott and Oklahoma offensive coordinator Lincoln Riley, and, according to

other media reports, South Florida head coach Willie Taggart, Arizona head coach Rich Rodriguez, former Rutgers head coach Greg Schiano and Cal head coach Sonny Dykes. In the end, though, Gamecocks athletics director Ray Tanner landed on Muschamp. The school’s board of trustees announced Sunday that it will hold a meeting at 9 a.m. Monday to discuss an “athletics employment contract.” South Carolina is expected to hold a news conference later in the day Monday to introduce Muschamp. SI.com first reported an “agreement in principle” had been reached with Muschamp, tweeting the news at 2 a.m. Sunday. Muschamp comes to South Carolina from Auburn, where he was the Tigers defensive coordinator in 2015. Muschamp is often called “Boom” due to his fiery sideline demeanor and favorite heat-of-the-moment expression, and he built an excellent coaching reputation as a defensive coordinator before becoming the Gators head coach. Muschamp’s Gators were a combined 7-9 in the SEC in his final two seasons and his team’s offenses were consistently among the worst in the conference, but his defensive prowess and respect in the coaching community led many people to

believe he would get a second chance as a head coach sooner rather than later. Muschamp’s firing at Florida was announced after the Gators fell 23-20 to South Carolina in Gainesville, Fla., on Nov. 15, 2014. “I was given every opportunity to get it done here, and I simply didn’t win enough games — that is the bottom line,” Muschamp said in a statement released by Florida at the time of his firing. “I’m disappointed that I didn’t get it done and it is my responsibility to get it done.” Muschamp, a Georgia native who started his college football playing career as a walk-on at the University of Georgia and eventually was placed on scholarship and named a team captain, also, has worked at LSU and Texas as well as with Florida and Auburn. His first major college coaching job came under Nick Saban at LSU, where Muschamp was defensive coordinator and linebackers coach from 2001-2004. The Tigers led the nation in scoring defense and total defense and won the BCS national title in 2003. Muschamp then became Saban’s assistant head coach with the Miami Dolphins. When Saban left the Dolphins, Muschamp became the defensive coordinator at Auburn and then the defensive coordinator at Tex-

JOE BURBANK TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Florida head coach Will Muschamp makes a point during action against Florida State at Doak Campbell Stadium in Tallahassee, Fla., on Nov. 29, 2014. Florida State won, 24-19. as before being named the Gators head coach in 2011. Most of Florida’s players were supportive of Muschamp after his firing. “It is a very sad day for my team and I know most of you people don’t under-

stand why we love Champ so much and I know most of you fans out there are happy that he is fired, but most of my teammates and I are not,” Gators linebacker Matt Rolin tweeted after the decision.

Auburn finished 90th in the nation in total defense in 2015, but that was a rare down year for Muschamp. Until this year, each of his SEC defenses had finished in the nation’s top 15 in fewest points allowed.

Orioles Davis pursuit may be affected by string of megadeals BY PETER SCHMUCK TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

It was bound to happen eventually. Baseball’s freeagent market erupted this past week with a string of giant contracts that are certain to impact the big-name players who remain unsigned — most notably top slugger Chris Davis. That’s no news flash. When premier starting pitcher David Price became the latest free-agent hurler to break the $200 million barrier and Zack Greinke quickly followed with a deal that averages a record $34.4 million per season, it became obvious that the price of top-flight talent has taken another large leap. What that means for Davis is difficult to predict, but it probably means that the Orioles are out of the running to re-sign him. He’s the top power prize in this year’s market and superagent Scott Boras hasn’t even gotten warmed up this offseason. The likelihood now seems

very low that the Orioles will be able to snag him for less than $150 million, and $150 million is more than double the biggest free agent contract (Miguel Tejada’s $72 million deal in 2003) they have ever handed out. Maybe Dan Duquette was already resigned to that, despite his frequent public statements to the contrary. Maybe that’s why he acquired a lesser version of Davis in the deal that brought Mark Trumbo and a left-handed relief prospect to the Orioles for catcher Steve Clevenger. Maybe not, but Duquette is headed to the winter meetings in Nashville, Tennessee, in search of players to fill several voids on the Orioles roster, and he cannot afford to wait too long to see how the Davis situation shakes out. There’s no reason for Boras to rush into a deal with one of his most valuable clients. There should be plenty of interest in the guy

NOTEBOOK

Plenty to build on as basketball season progresses BY ELI SCHWADRON STAFF WRITER

Kendrick Nunn inbounded the ball to Michael Finke with six minutes left in the first half against Western Carolina Saturday. Finke caught the ball between the top of the key and the right wing, a few feet from the red State Farm logo. The redshirt freshman immediately handed the rock back to Nunn, who drove to the left and hoisted a 10-foot floater, which splashed in to extend Illinois’ lead to 30-21. The Nunn-Finke combo was on display time and again in the 80-68 Illini win over the Catamounts. Nunn set a new personal career high in single-game points with 27, including 17 in the first half and 3-of-5 shooting from beyond the arc. Finke also upped his career high with 24, including 4-of-6 from three-point land and 9-of-13 overall. Over his last three games, Finke has shot a combined 16-of-23 – a sizzling 70 percent from the field. With center Mike Thorne Jr. out indefinitely due to a meniscus tear, Finke will see increased minutes at the stretch-4 position. Though the team misses Thorne’s 8.4 boards per game, Illinois did a solid job on the glass against Western Carolina. The Illini out-rebounded the Catamounts 34-21. Finke (six rebounds) and Malcolm Hill (five rebounds) led the way, but it was an entire team effort. Every Illini player grabbed at least one defensive board. “I thought (rebounding) was a real key to the game,� head coach John Groce said. “That’s one of the things that Coach (Lar-

ry) Hunter’s teams have always done well is attack the backboard, attack the glass. And I thought we did a great job of what we call ‘gang-rebounding.’� Illinois hopes to carry the same intensity into Wednesday’s tilt with Yale. Scoring-wise, Nunn and Finke were the stars of Saturday’s game, but Hill remains the team’s stat sheet-stuffer.

The junior guard is averaging 16.2 points 5.4 rebounds and 3.9 assists through nine outings. He’s also had two or more steals in four games thus far. Freshman guard Aaron Jordan had his best game of the young season Saturday with eight points in 17 minutes off the bench. “(Jordan) has gotten a lot better — whether it’s his

efforts to watch film, his habits are getting better, he cares,� Groce said. “It all starts with his attitude — his attitude is unbelievable. He’s happy for other guys’ success, and I think when you have a free mind like that — I use Popovich’s deal a lot — when you can ‘get over yourself,’ that’s a huge thing.� Meanwhile, forward Ler-

on Black is still working to get back to peak shape coming off his own meniscus tear. Black has struggled in his last two outings; he shot 1-for-7 for two points against Notre Dame and 0-for-4 for 0 points against Western Carolina. He fouled out with three minutes left in regulation versus the Catamounts. Saturday, for the eighth
