FROM THE
SIDELINES

Civil w,tr week mui
The Oregon Stale* Him
vers iiri* ('inning into S.it1
urii.n s game sporting a s< hool
record 15 straight losses, the
longest current streak in Divi
Sion ' N(IAA football
First year head couch .-Jerry
I’ettilxine has vet to win at live
Heavers' helm More than a
year has passed sirn e Oregon
Stall' has i nine otl a field victo
rious Anil our neighbors up in
( orvallis have been outscored,
in this, their 21st straight losing
campaign, bv .i combined
tf)2 m.
Fredk turn lor 1 uu I (begun
state stuns the I’.u 11 it 10 Con
ference and itiuch id the na
turn by finishing with a 5 .1
league mark, and bv garnering
its lust winning season in 2.1
years, the Heavers end with a
0 5 overall record
Ok So now you're saving,
Hiiv, wait just a minute
you've been sitting in front of
that computer too long and all
those nasty video display ter
minal rays are sr rambling your
brains
Maylx' Hut allow me to ex
plain a hit alxuit inv prognosis
tor the Heavers meteoric rise to
mediocrity
Nut surprisingly when 1’ettl
bone took over in Corvallis last
year, there was quite a bit ot
enthusiasm among tile Heaver
taithful. It's inevitable Any
time a program so long im
mersed in losing as Oregon
State makes a i henge any
change somebody is going to
predict an imim'd iate I urn -
around The same thing hap
pened when D.ivc krugthorpe
look ovi'r in tuns supposedly
tin- beginning of (hr Alt Krug
thorpe" era
And now. .is tin- [feu vs r on
linin’to break records for fulilt
1\, She i .ills for Pettibones head !
are coming’in But those first |
••predictions, hoisi’ver short I
sighted they mas have been,
will prove lu lie nghl after all
I’ellilxme definitely did bring
a change from his former head
touching job at Northern Illi
nois a big change Now Ore
got! State is the only I’.e 10
team to run the triple option of
fense And while some people
are all over IVttibone tor cum
pie to I v revamping Oregon
State’s program which is still
winless it liehtxives one lu
remember that they haven't
been winning for more than
two decades
Kventuallv the new system
will prevail, though What
I’ettdKino is doing is giving his
program Hs only c ham e of re
cruiting quality players There
is no way aside from a
strong winning season and
maybe a Ixiwl hid that Ore
gon State is going to win many
offensive or defensive, lor
that matter recruit*, with the
( redentials to excel a! ibis level
by running an everyday o!
fense Why would a quarter
bar k or running Ixir k come to
Corvallis when lie could run
the same offense for a winning
team ’
But Oregon Slate doesn't run
a typical offense However,
quite a lew high schools around
the country run the option just
like the Beavers And there are
going to be high school players
