Locker rooms always a hassle
By Paul Danzer
Of the Emerald
While fans jockey for parking
spaces, and the athletic depart
ment looks for corners to
squeeze extra fans into, the
equipment managers for
Oregon and Notre Dame will
have their backs against the
wall before the game.
They'll be forced to because
of the cramped space in the
stacked locker rooms at Autzen
Stadium. The visiting and home
locker rooms sit on top of each
other at the west end of the
stadium. They provide almost
no breathing room, let alone
room for dressing, treatment of
injuries or coaching
According to Oregon equip
ment manager Pat Conrad, his
counterpart at Notre Dame,
Gene O'Neill, whom he met at a
convention, was appalled by the
locker room situation at
Oregon It's a common reaction
“Through my experience
travelling around I would say
our playing and seating facilities
are great,” said Conrad "It is
the backup facilities where we
are not up to par ”
The biggest shortfall of the
locker rooms at Autzen is lack of
space. Each room contains just
54 lockers Any team who plays
the Ducks brings at least 60
players (the Pac-10 conference
limit). Add to that the number of
coaches and trainers who tag
along, and things can get very
interesting
“It's a zoo. That's the word for
it,” said Conrad describing life
in the locker rooms before and
after games
He should know. If the op
posing teams have it bad, Con
rad has it worse The Ducks
dress 90 players for each home
game
Because of the lack of space,
trainers must set up their treat
ment centers in the showers
These are hardly plush facilities
As if lack of space doesn't
create enough of a challenge
for the equipment managers,

lack of time adds to the exci
tement of game day prepara
tions
The time constraints are
caused by the University’s con
tract with district 5AAA to hold
high school football games at
Autzen every Friday night
Because of those games, the
equipment managers cannot
move their equipment into the
locker rooms on Friday.
“It's no problem for the
coaches or anybody else,"
Conrad said. “It’s the little guy
who must deal with it — the
equipment manager. But, he's
going to get the job done It's
just a lot more difficult.''
Joe O’Brien, Notre Dame as
sistant athletic director didn’t
knock the stadium
“We are thrilled and anxious
to come out there," he said in a
telephone interview “It's a
beautiful area, with beautiful
facilities."
O’Brien was diplomatic in
discussing the locker room set
up “We have played in a
number of places with a wide
range of set ups We're not that
picky.”
But some people have been
picky. The most notable was the
Michigan State equipment
manager according to Conrad
"He took one look at the locker
room and said 'Isn't this de
pressing," he recalled "Most
people have a little more class
than that."
