  • Wake Forest Moves on from Manning
    C6 SUNDAY, APRIL 26, 2020 ••• RICHMOND TIMES-DISPATCH SPORTS BRIEFS COLLEGE BASKETBALL Wake Forest moves on from Manning RALEIGH, N.C. — Danny Manning never built a winner at Wake Forest. Now the school is looking for a new coach and direction. Wake Forest fired Manning on Saturday after losing seasons in five of his six years with one NCAA tour- nament appearance. The move came more than six weeks after the Demon Deacons lost to Pittsburgh in the opening game of the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament, ending the season shortly before the coronavirus pandemic led to a shutdown of college and professional sports. The decision came after what athletic director John Currie called an “overall evaluation” of a program with two winning seasons in the past decade going back to the days of Jeff Bzdelik. Manning, a former No. 1 overall NBA draft pick, went 78-111 in Winston-Salem with a 30-80 mark in ACC regular-season games. Those league struggles included a 6-49 mark in league road games and 1-6 in the ACC tournament.

Thank you. A POSITIVIST, BASEBALL-CENTRIC CRITIQUE OF ORIGINALISM William D. Blake* INTRODUCTION The1 Constitution invests the Supreme Court with two related powers: discretion and finality. The Constitution contains open-textured language, which creates disputes on which the Court typically has the last say. As Justice Robert Jackson once humbly observed, “We are not final because we are infallible, but we are infallible only because we are final.”2 The baseball rulebook provides similar powers to umpires. Judgment calls are final; they cannot form the basis for appeal or protest.3 Even with the creation of instant replay, overturning an umpire’s call requires a finding of “clear and convincing evidence,” which provides a strong presumption that the call on the field was correct.4 Umpires, like judges, have considerable power in light of the irrevocability of their decisions. For example, the Official Baseball Rules (OBR) warns players and managers that they will be ejected from the game if they quarrel over an umpire’s strike zone.5 Finality is problematic if sports officials abuse their discretion. Consider a (perhaps apocryphal) story of a rookie pitcher who experienced unfair treatment from Hall of Fame umpire Bill Klem. On a two-strike count, the pitcher’s offering to Rogers Hornsby, another Hall of Famer, caught the corner of the plate.
