The Mayor says he will consider closing the Hall before the contract termination.

The College Football Hall of Fame, which opened in 1995, had planned on taking advantage of Notre Dame’s prestige and devout following in South Bend. The Hall of Fame has consistently fell short of its predicted visitors per year since drawing 115,000 in the first year.

Tweets in reaction from South Bend have been mixed.

LSU captured their sixth national championship and first under Skip Bertman replacement Paul Mainieri, while the Tigers’ football coach looked on from the stands at Rosenblatt Stadium.

The 11-4 victory over the Texas Longhorns capped an exciting CWS, as usual, but this time the prestige of two storied programs took center stage, per NCAA.com.

The past three years have seen surprising champions Oregon State (back-to-back) and Fresno State knock the national seeds from the pages of history, but this year the sport’s Goliaths pushed back and reclaimed the throne.

LSU rightfielder Jared Mitchell– a first-round pick of the Chicago White Sox and wide-receiver on the LSU football team– got the Tigers off to a good start with a three-run homer in the first inning.

Texas responded later to tie the game, but a five-run sixth inning by LSU sealed the Longhorns’ fate, sending Baton Rouge into hysteria:

No. 1 Texas jumped onto the LSU pitching early then got an outstanding complete-game effort from starting pitcher Taylor Jungmann in the Longhorns’ 5-1 victory in Game 2 of the championship series, forcing a deciding game Wednesday night, per ESPN.com.

Jungmann, after a brief, unsuccessful relief appearance in Game 1, shut down the LSU bats, allowing just one run and five hits over the nine innings.

Russell Moldenhauer came into the College World Series with no homeruns. The designated hitter connected for a homerun in a three-run third inning for Texas. It was Moldenhauer’s fourth homerun of the tournament, tieing a CWS-record.

The all too familiar “back, back, back, back…” would still be resonating in ears from Omaha across the country with the amount of homeruns hit during Game 1 of the best-of-three series.

In the end, it was a ninth-inning rally that saved the post-season undefeated Tigers (55-16) before capping off the comeback with a run in the top of the 11th inning, felling the Longhorns 7-6 in in front of 23,000 souvenir-happy fans, per NCAA.com.

Here’s a few tweets from happy Tigers’ fans:

It was only fitting that two teams which have a combined for 11 national titles would combine for seven homeruns– all solo shots  with three coming in the bottom of the fourth inning for Texas (49-15-1), setting the tone for hot, muggy night.

Russell Moldenhauer had two homers for a Texas team that knows they let a win slip away and must now win Tuesday and Wednesday night to snatch the title away from LSU.

LSU took down SEC rival Arkansas in the afternoon, making up for last night’s rainout, while Texas won in dramatic fashion in the bottom of the ninth setting up the finale, per NCAA.com.

LSU 14, Arkansas 5

Skip Bertman is no longer in the dugout coaching four teams to championships like he did throughout the 90s, but the LSU baseball legacy still lingers in Omaha.

The Tigers have now won all eight games they’ve played this postseason and most have not been close. The Friday afternoon matchup against the Razorbacks was no different as LSU held an 11-0 lead after seven innings.

There is a familiar bayou cheer ringing across Twitter:

Texas 4, Arizona State 3

You couldn’t ask for a better game.

No. 1 Texas couldn’t ask for a better result.

After Arizona State took a 3-2 lead in the top of the ninth with just a half inning to go, the Longhorns ended the game in style by hitting back-to-back homeruns to walk-off with the win and advance to face LSU.

(TwitPic by @kevinengelkamp)

Arizona State’s Zach Wilson hit a triple in the top of the ninth inning, plating Jason Kipnis from second to give the energetic Sun Devils a lead with the hopes of a win and a deciding rematch Saturday.

But with two outs on the scoreboard, Longhorns’ catcher Cameron Rowe tied the score with a solo homerun to center then watched from the dugout as teammate Connor Rowe launched a change-up to left field for the walk-0ff homer.

Rup ran around the bases with his helmet held in the air before being mobbed by teammates at home plate.

The exciting finish was a trendy Twitter topic:

In a rematch from Sunday’s Bracket Two opener which ASU won 5-2 in ten innings, UNC came out strong by going up 4-0.  Designated hitter Jacob Stallins drove in UNC’s first two runs on a sacrafice bunt in the second and fourth, and RBI singles from Mike Cavasinni and Ryan Graepel gave the Tarheels their last lead of the game.

"Rosenblatt has cleared out in a hurry! That's what happens when a team scores 11 unanswered runs... #CWS" TwitPic posted by @keithcavey

But ASU was able to tie it up 4-4 off a grand slam with a 3-2 count by Kole Calhoun in the fifth — the third home run for in the series for Calhoun who was passed over for the MLB draft this year — and it was downhill for the Tarheels after that.

In the bottom of the seventh, Calhoun got a two-run RBI double to give ASU their first lead of the night.  Then UNC loaded the bases with one out and another wild pitch from Matt Harvey  — three for the night  — allowed Calhoun to come in from third to put the score 7-4.  A single by Zac MacPhee allowed two more runs, and then a base hit brought in two more to give the Sun Devils a sizable lead at 11-4.  Another run came in off a Carlos Ramirez RBI single to make it 12-4 and finally end the seventh.

At the top of the ninth, UNC tried to come back by narrowing ASU’s lead to seven with an RBI single from Kyle Seager to bring in Dustin Ackley, but it wasn’t enough to dig the ‘Heels out of their seven-run hole. Along with the wild pitches, UNC’s usual excellent pitching also allowed nine walks.  The Tarheels have had four straight 40-win seasons and four straight appearances in the College World Series.

But UNC fans aren’t so happy their Tarheels have made another trip to Omaha without bringing home a title, and some even leaving Rosenblatt early:

In the top of the ninth, Arkansas center fielder Brett Eibner hit a two-out, two-run homerun to tie the game, but the College World Series (@CWS2009) drama was far from over.

In the bottom of the ninth with the bases loaded and a 3-0 count on a Virginia batter, Arkansas pitcher Dallas Keutchel threw what appeared to be a pitch outside and high for a ball, but the umpire gave him a fortuitous strike call.

One pitch later, Keutchel was out of the jam on a hard-hit 6-4-3 double play.

North Carolina 11, Southern Miss 4

The Cinderelllas of the College World Series, Southern Mississippi, saw their season come to an end tonight after being defeated by North Carolina 11-4 in an elimination game on Tuesday, per the Omaha World-Herald.

"Omaha! #cws!" TwitPic posted by @wetchman

The Golden Eagles couldn’t hold back the Tarheels’ offense. UNC’s first baseman first-team All-American Dustin Ackley’s five hits allowed him to become the CWS career leader in hits with a total of 27.  Ackley singled a run in the first and third, doubled in a run in the second, and hit two more singles in the fifth and seventh. He nearly beat Tennessee’s Kris Bennett’s record of six hits in a single CWS game in 2001.

UNC had 23 hits in the game, which tied the Series single-game record reached by Arizona State in 1984 and 1988 and Southern California in 1998.

The Tarheels jumped to a 8-0 lead in 3.5 innings and never looked back, holding the Golden Eagles to just five hits. A three-run home run from USM shortstop B.A. Vollmuth in the fourth was the only offense in six innings for USM against UNC starter Adam Warren.

Thoughts on UNC’s chances of making the title game and congrats on USM’s first CWS appearance:

Texas 10, Arizona State 6

Texas became the lone undefeated team in Bracket 2 with a win over Arizona State 10-6 Tuesday night.
The Sun Devils dominated the first three innings offensively via homers from Kole Calhoun and Carlos Ramirez, a single and a sacrifice fly from Jared McDonald that drove in a run a piece along with two additional runs.

After digging themselves in a 6-0 hole, the Longhorns’ offense woke up in the fourth and were able to tie up the game. Cameron Rupp ripped a three-run homer, and Travis Tucker’s infield single allowed Preston Clark to score, followed by Brandon Belt’s single to right to bring in Michael Torres and Tucker.

The score remained tied 6-6 until the eighth when Texas’ Kevin Keyes got an RBI double and Brandon Loy’s center field single scored in the final run.

Impressed with Texas’ come-from-behind win, or disappointed ASU gave up a 6-0 lead in Omaha?

Tonight at 5 p.m. ET marked the deadline for early entrants into the June 25 NBA Draft and the beginning of the mad dash to evaluate the remaining players.

Several prominent underclassmen — Wake Forest’s Jeff Teague, Kentucky’s Jodie Meeks, and DePaul’s Dar Tucker — eschewed their remaining NCAA eligibility and entered the draft, while others –Maryland’s Greivis Vasquez, Notre Dame’s Luke Harangody, and Texas’ Damion James — decided to return to their respective campuses to improve their draft stock, and hopefully win an NCAA championship next season.

ESPN’s Chad Ford breaks down the draft’s early entrants and defectors and provides his latest mock draft (ESPN Insider is required to view the entire first round) for all the die-hards to mull over for the next week and a half. However, the draft “experts” at nbadraft.net provide a comprehensive list of who’s going back to class and who will be getting schooled next season in the NBA.

The Twitterverse was abuzz with thoughts on the draft after tonight’s deadline:
