Those basketball players
really know how to mess up a
sports column.
After Oregon’s Saturday night
embarrassment against Stan
ford, these fingers were all
geared up for a sad obituary for
the Decimated Ducks, God rest
their eight souls.
I envisioned Jim Haney sitting
on that bench outside the lock
erroom after the Cal game,
mumbling answers through in
tertwined fingers.
The Ducks had taken a nose
dive against the Cards. The loss
of four players from the 12-man
squad had been more than
damaging — it was demoraliz
ing. Oregon played like
someone had sneaked behind
them and whomped them with a
telephone pole.
But just when Oregon’s
heartbeat was at its feeblest,
just when the breathing could
barely fog a mirror, the prodigal
Duck returned The appearance

of Ray Whiting in the warmup
period before the Cal game was
like an electroshock treatment
to the Mac Court fans.
The vital signs jumped a
notch higher when Whiting
came into the game. Even
though the Ducks were down at
that moment, 20-12, these
fingers began to sense that they
would have to tap a different
tune.
Tuesday morning headlines
started flashing through my
mind. “Whiting’s last-second
bucket springs Ducks.” “Ray
returns, scores 30 against
Bears.”
But this was reality, and Whit
ing showed that even Last
Year’s Most Valuable Player
puts on his shorts one leg at a
time.
“It took me a while to get my
court sense,” Whiting said. That
was obvious enough. His first
shot attempt, a five-foot turn
around jumper, caught nothing
but air.
That play put a lot of Mac
Court fans in a saner frame of
mind. They realized Whiting
wasn’t The Answer To All Their
Problems. He scored only four
points. But more important, as
Haney said, Whiting gives the
Ducks a little more flexibility in
their game.
“It’s always happy to have
your whole family together,”
Haney said.
Oregon’s 87-80 win over
the Bears doesn’t mean they
can challenge for the top of the
Pac-10 heap.
But they should be able to
contend amongst the Also
Ran-7 — everyone exclud
ing Goliaths Oregon State,
UCLA and Arizona State. Cal
was considered the leaders of
the AR-7, and despite Monday’s
loss will probably remain so.
With their young and towering
players, the second half of the
schedule will be more success
ful for Cal than the first.
But for Oregon, what looked
Saturday night like a season of
Better Luck Next Time has
become a season of Maybe
These Guys Can Pull It Off
Before the season began, the
squad expected freshman Fred
Cofield to become the field
commander. The 6-3 guard has
done that admirably.
But now the other two fresh
man, David Brantley and John
Cheatham, forced into playing a
lot of minutes, have been
leaders instead of a hindrance.
And Mike Clark has shed last
year’s “stone hands” label and
continues to match evenly
against centers much taller than
he. John Greig’s improved con
fidence is reflected in Oregon’s
scoring column.
But the big factor is the unity
to which Haney alluded.
“We played together,” said
John Cheatham after the Cal
game. “I think we re the smar
test team in this league, so if we
play together, we win together."
