The consultants have proposed building a behavioral rapid response team and expanding early childhood education as ways to cut down on referrals they consider unnecessary.

Ex-ND coach accepts 3rd straight NL Manager of Year Award: ‘Grateful’

Former Notre Dame baseball coach and current Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy was in a peculiar spot on Tuesday. Murphy was in the hospital resting after he had hip replacement surgery. The World Series champion coach, however, still appeared on MLB Network and accepted his third consecutive National League Manager of the Year award despite being in an unusual place. “I’m very grateful,” Murphy said. Murphy is coming off the best season in Brewers history. Milwaukee went 103-59, captured its first NL pennant in 44 years and secured the franchise’s first-ever World Series title. The longtime coach was at the helm of Notre Dame’s program from 1988 to 1994. Murphy guided the Irish to a combined 318-116-1 record and NCAA regional final bids in 1992 through 1994. In the seven seasons he coached at Notre Dame, Murphy led the team to 20-plus wins in four of the campaigns while the program competed in the Midwestern Collegiate Conference (present-day Horizon League). ☘️☘️☘️ https://t.co/tkvLQSjpzL — Notre Dame Baseball (@NDBaseball) November 11, 2026 Contact/Follow us @IrishWireND on X (formerly Twitter) and like our page on Facebook to follow ongoing coverage of Notre Dame news, notes and opinions.

Chicago rap star Chief Keef finally plays Milwaukee for tour finale

To his fans, and close followers of hip-hop the past 15 years, Chief Keef is a superstar who didn’t get the chance to be a superstar. A pioneer of Chicago’s gritty drill scene in the early 2010s chronicling the hardships of the city’s South Side, the now 31-year-old rapper born Keith Cozart had a seismic impact on where hip-hop headed. Keef’s sound was not just a key inspiration for massive, arena-and-festival packing stars like Playboi Carti and Lil Uzi Vert, but on entire regional scenes. The DIY viral videos Keef made early in his career - even while under house arrest as a teen - became a blueprint for Milwaukee rappers who followed his example and regularly scored millions of YouTube views for their videos, leading to more national recognition and acclaim for Milwaukee rap than ever before. But as popular as Keef’s music has been - DJs still hype hip-hop concert crowds with early 2010s hits “Love Sosa” and “I Don’t Like” - Keef himself didn’t become a hot touring act. Supporters argue he was shunned by Chicago officials in part for his music’s alleged promotion of gang violence. He was unable to headline a big city show until
