FIND THINGS IN ODE CLASSIFIEDS (BICYCLES, PETS, CARS, JOBS, ROOMMATES, APARTMENTS, CONCERT TICKETS, PLANE TICKETS, STUFF YOU LOST, TYPING SERVICES, ON-CAMPUS OPPORTUNITIES) Bellotti a Buckeye wouldn ’t surprise SCOTT PESZNECKER If you’d seen him at a Decem ber press conference, you would have noticed some thing odd about Oregon head coach Mike Bellotti. Even though you, the readers, weren’t there, try to imagine your self sitting beneath the Casanova Center next to Autzen Stadium. Envision Bellotti sitting next to Oregon athletic director Bill Moos at the front of a room filled with media and television cameras. Via speaker phone, Bellotti ac cepts the Ducks’ invitation to the Culligan Holiday Bowl. The atmosphere is electric and jovial, but there’s more. To kill rumors that Bellotti might sign a $7.5 million dollar contract and become Southern California’s head coach, Moos an nounces that he and Bellotti have agreed upon a contract extension that would keep “The Mustache” at Oregon until 2007. A reporter then asks Bellotti about the USC job. Bellotti pauses, then answers, saying he has always been happy at Oregon and that he always will be. And that’s what caught my at tention the most. Not the answer, but the pause. A long pause, followed by a well-planned answer. That’s funny to me. While it was happening, Bellotti constant ly downplayed the Trojans’ efforts to lure him to Los Angeles. He said it was nothing big. He told players and fans that he was only listening. But that was such a long, thoughtful pause for someone who hadn’t seriously considered leaving Oregon, wasn’t it? He had good reasons to stay with the Ducks, he said. There was his family — not the football team, but his literal family — and he didn’t want to haul his clan from Eugene to Los Angeles, a busy city not known for its nur turing characteristics. And, of course, there was his football team. There was a re markable nine-win season, soon to be 10. He almost took his team to the Rose Bowl. He became a personal hero to players and fans. He was the most important influ ence on cornerback Rashad Bau man’s decision to stay with the team one more season. No doubt USC offered Bellotti far more than the $600,000 annu al salary he receives now. Unfortunately for the land of Troy, Los Angeles would have been a big adjustment for a family so used to Eugene. But what about Ohio State?
