Deadwiler will marry his fiancee Kileen Austin |an 22 and begin an instant family Deadwiler has a three-year old son. Marquise, and Austin has a daughter. Drew, the same age "We call it a mini Brady Bunch,'' Deadwiler said The two met in a church, a place Deadwiler has spent a lot of time recently. Dttodwiler is one of a group of (Jregon play • ers who meet weekly for Thurs day night fellowship, chapel services and at the 50-yard line after oar h game for prayer iJeatiwiior gives so inn oi me ( redit for Oregon's winning sea son to the weekly meetings “It has grown the team a lot closer." Deadwiler said. "Com pared to years before when we wore 3-8. or even last year, it is completely different The team is so unified and I'd like to say that the servii.es have a lot to do with it because we have a lot of guys out there on the 50-yord line and in chapel." Deadwiler's performance on the field has been a boost for the Ducks as well this year He cur rently leads the team with 40 c atches and has been a steady ing influent •* on a talented, but young, group of receivers Oregon's rec coving corps is made up of a lot of youngsters like redshirt freshman Dameron Ric ketts and sophomores Ron Murphy and Cristin Mcl-emore. Waiting in the wings is highly rec ruited Jamaal Wallace, who is redshirting this year to recov er from knee surgery. Although Deadwiler has been at Oregon only three years, that qualifies him os one of the gray beards among receivers. His leadership has been an impor tant factor in Oregon's success this year, but he said it's not something he thinks about. "1 just try to be an example," *v JEFF PASLAF-Em*aid Oregon wide receiver Derrick Deadwller has been a steadying Influ ence for a young group of Oregon wide receivers. Deadwiler said. “If the other guvs ask me something, like a route to run, I try to help But leadership, if they look up to me. they look up to me." However, as Deadwiler points out. the others may look up to him figuratively, hut not literal ly Tin usually looking up to them bet ause I'm shorter." tin; I-foot-9. 170-pounder said. Deadwiler came to Oregon in 1991, hut took a while to estab lish himself as an offensive weapon. Deadwiler redshirted the 1991 season and shared lime last year with Anthony Jones and Ronnie Harris, catch ing 2H passes in eight games before suffering a fractured col larbone, Deadwiler was projected as a starter entering this season, and he hasn't disappointed anyone. With two or three games left in his collegiate career, Deadwiler said he is looking to turn it up a notch. “It's going to get more intense because guys are in shape men tally and physically." Dead wiler said. "It's not a matter of knowing something anymore, because we know it already; it’s a matter of doing it now.” Although he is new to the Pac-10 scene, opposing coaches have taken notice, including this weekend's opponent. "Deadwiler is one of an out standing group of receivers,” Stanford head coach Bill Walsh said, "He makes big plays and has good speed to heat you deep Deadwiler has the highest marks; he's the best of the young group.” Deadwiler made his biggest impact this year in Oregon's 42 4 1 loss at California, tying one school rei ord with 11 catches and setting a new record with 2.44 yards receiving However, that accomplishment was for gotten by many when Cal set a record of its own by corning hack to win after trailing by 30 points. Deadwiler has caught more passes than any other two-year Duck, and is among the top 20 all-time Oregon receivers. With 15 catches in his final two games, Deadwiler would pass Bobby Moore for the second highest number of catches in one season. flit GRAPEVINE Hlne I di & € afe * Excellent 99 — Northwest Best Places .Serving Dinner 7 Days a Week Lunch Sunday-Friday; Sunday Brunch Mediterranean and West Coast Cuisine Fine Wines by the Glass, 1/2 Glass and Taste Tapas and Other Regional Appetizers Gourmet Desserts Non-Smoking Enviroment I illMdlHIl (ill I 0 sdlllt Ills, /lldlln.
