Still Flexin’
Although the team has prac
ticed the one setter offense, Fer
reira said he is sticking with the 4
2 Flex, which features both setters
(Julie Gerlach and Sydney Chute)
in the lineup.
“We haven’t gone away from
that philosophy,” Ferreira said.
The Flex “has been the stability of
what we’ve done this year. It
would be crazy for me to go away
from that.”
The team went to the one-setter
scheme in the Oct. 7 loss to Ari
zona. Since then, Gerlach has
come off the bench to provide the
Ducks with another key weapon.
In her first game back, the jun
ior setter had a career day against
the Washington Huskies, record
ing 13 kills and a .480 attack per
centage.
“We used to leave Julie in for all
six rotations,” Ferreira said. “But
we’ve added some ball control
players to stabilize our control. I
really like the substitutions that
we’ve done.”
In the new mix, Ferris has seen
more action, as has sophomore
middle blocker Amanda Porter
and freshman outside hitter Al
H We used to leave Julie
in for all six rotations, but
we've added some ball
control players to stabilize
our control.

isha Stevens.
Against Oregon State and River
side, the three combined to play
in all but one game, and tallied a
total of 14 kills on just three errors
— a .306 attack percentage.
Head of the class
Gerlach and senior outside hit
ter Amy Banducci are approach
ing career marks on some of Ore
gon’s all-time charts.
Banducci ranks sixth on the
Pac-lO’s active digs list with 806.
She leads the team this season
with 2.66 digs per game.
As a freshman, Gerlach sealed
her place in Oregon’s history
books with 1,540 assists in 1998
— second best in school history.
Her 2,217 career assists ranks fifth
on Oregon’s all-time list. She also
ranks sixth among active leaders
in the Pac-10.

ter last Saturday’s last-second loss
to Stanford.
In short, he had to defend his job.
“I need to coach better and our
coaches need to coach better,”
Hackett told reporters during a
Tuesday press conference. “And I
believe against Stanford we did
that... we upped the level, but it
wasn’t enough. We’re going to turn
the corner at some point this year, I
just don’t know when.
“This team is keeping the
distractions to a minimum and
that’s what you have to do as a
coach. Coaching at USC is what it
is and it is pressure-packed all the
time — win or lose.”
While Hackett and his team may
be toning down talk of firing
Hackett, others are not.
Trojan fans dedicated a Web site
to terminating Hackett’s job, titled
www.firepaulhackett.com. The site
points out useful tid-bits of
information, such as Hackett’s
sliding record at USC: 8-5 overall in
1998, 6-6 in 1999 and currently,
BLANK in 2000.
The author of the Web site
writes: “This coaching staff still
can’t find a way to pull out a
victory. The play calling is pathetic
and gutless.”
Poor, poor Hackett.
Huskies not in Dawg house yet
The national college football
scene has been buzzing with talk of
the recently released Bowl
Championship Series standings
and who will advance to the
national championship game at the
Orange Bowl in Miami Jan. 3.
The Ducks have received
national attention as a potential
championship candidate.
Meanwhile, up north in Seattle,
the local media are giving
Washington some props.
“A reckless finish to a reckless
season — the right teams losing at
the right time — and perhaps even
a national title,” Seattle-Times
columnist Blaine Newnham wrote
in a Tuesday article.
But Newnham’s article keeps the
Huskies’ situation in perspective,
focusing more on the Rose Bowl
and less on a national title. And,
between the lines, Newnham’s
writing describes a battle of
Northwest supremacy that is far
from over.
Think Oregon secured bragging
rights over Washington for the next
two years by beating them 23-16
Sept. 30? Think again.
If the Huskies win their last four
games against Stanford, Arizona,
UCLA and Washington State —
and they should — and the Ducks
and Beavers run their tables to the
Civil War, which Oregon State
hypothetically wins, then
Washington goes to the Rose Bowl.
Even worse, the Beavers would
go to the Holiday Bowl.
The Ducks would be back in El
Paso.
“The thought has insides
churning in Oregon,” Newnham
writes.
Polls don’t lie, right?
Watch out, Ducks.
A fan poll on the Pacific-10
Conference Web site asks “which
football stadium offers the greatest
home-field advantage.”
The winner: Sun Devil Stadium,
with 34.7 percent -of the vote.
Autzen Stadium is in second place
with 33.5 percent of the vote.
Urn, OK.
